摘要:
Methods and systems for power conversion are disclosed, including receiving at least one interrupt indicative of a transient power condition of the power converter and switching the processor to operate in a second mode from a first mode responsive to the interrupt. The switching enables the processor to allocate greater resources to process a power output parameter of the power converter operating in the transient power condition compared to resources allocated by the processor operating in the first mode to process the power output parameter.

An apparatus and method for driving a halogen lamp. A driving circuit is provided that is operable near a series resonance frequency. The driving circuit is coupled to the lamp in a series configuration. During startup, the circuit is driven above resonance. After the lamp has warmed up, the circuit is driven substantially at resonance. A controller is coupled to the driving circuit. The controller is operable to control the frequency of operation of the driving circuit.

Disclosed herein are a variety of different electrical system topologies intended to mitigate the impact of large intermittent loads on a 12 volt vehicle power distribution system. In some embodiments the intermittent load is disconnected from the remainder of the system and the voltage supplied to this load is allowed to fluctuate. In other embodiments, the voltage to critical loads is regulated independently of the voltage supplied to the remainder of the system. The different topologies described can be grouped into three categories, each corresponding to a different solution technique. One approach is to regulate the voltage to the critical loads. A second approach is to isolate the intermittent load that causes the drop in system voltage. The third approach is to use a different type of alternator that has a faster response than the conventional Lundell wound field machine.

A control module (100) includes a first signal processing unit (102) that is coupled to a second signal processing unit (114) by a control bus (130), an address bus (131) and a data bus (132). The control module conveys seed value addresses (108) and expected result addresses (110) over the address bus, seed values (118) and verification set output values (107) over the data bus, and compares each verification set output value to an expected result (120), thereby allowing the control module to determine whether the first signal processing unit, the control bus, the address bus, and the data bus are collectively functioning correctly. By properly selecting the seed value addresses, expected result addresses, seed values, and expected results (and correspondingly, verification set output values), proper operation of each line of the address bus and control bus may be individually verified.
