摘要: A control system for an appliance utilizing a plurality of peripheral devices includes a controller and a communications bus coupled to the plurality of peripheral devices and to the controller. The controller is configured to receive data from the peripheral devices over the communications bus and transmit control operations to the peripheral devices based on the data received. The communications bus reduces overall wiring requirements due to elimination or reduction of power wiring of the peripheral devices, facilitates distributed displays and human machine interfaces, and allows model differentiation with late point identification by a population of bus connections with a sensor, display, interface, or a blank. A data collision detection scheme is also provided to ensure proper communication along the bus.

摘要: An adaptive defrost control includes a microcomputer for controlling the initiation and termination of a defrost operation based, at least in part, on opening of the fresh food door and the freezer door. The control monitors the compressor run time and the fresh food and freezer door open times and adjusts the time until defrost accordingly. A pre-chill operation cools the freezer prior to defrosting the evaporator coils so that the defrost heat will have less of an affect on the maximum temperature after defrost, and enables the freezer compartment to be maintained at a temperature a few degrees higher than with known refrigerators, providing energy savings.

摘要: Methods and Apparatus for detecting the presence of a conductor near an inductive coupling loop are disclosed. The method includes supplying an excitation to the coupling loop, measuring the signal distortion induced by the excitation signal, and monitoring the distortion in the signal for a change in harmonic content.

摘要: The present invention relates to an activation circuit for a battery-operated security alarm detection system where current drain and, therefore, battery life is of concern. It employs a non-current drawing piezo element which only sees part of the frequency band of interest to briefly activate or wake up a current-drawing electret microphone which has a bandwidth broad enough to sees the entire audio band of interest.
