摘要： A heater device includes a contact determination unit for determining contact or non-contact of an object based on a change in capacitance between a plurality of electrodes. The contact determination unit is configured to determine (i) the contact of the object in response to a determination that the change in capacitance between the plurality of electrodes per predetermined unit time is a change in one direction and equal to or larger than a first determination threshold value. The contact determination unit is configured to determine (ii) the non-contact of the object in response to a determination that the change in capacitance between the plurality of electrodes per predetermined unit time is a change in a direction opposite to the one direction and equal to or larger than a second determination threshold value.

摘要： Example methods and devices for improving uniformity of temperature distribution of a microheater or a microheater array are disclosed. One example method includes determining that a temperature of a first coil segment of multiple coil segments of a microheater is lower than a temperature of a second coil segment of the multiple coil segments, where the first coil segment is closer to an edge of the microheater than the second coil segment, and the microheater is a heating component of a microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) based device. A resistance of the first coil segment is increased through a reduction of a width of the first coil segment. After the reduction of the width of the first coil segment, a width of the second coil segment is adjusted based on a difference between the temperature of the first coil segment and the temperature of the second coil segment.

摘要： Various example embodiments described herein relate to a window heating apparatus. The window heating apparatus comprises a frame, a heater assembly disposed on the frame, and a glass window. The heater assembly comprises a base having a first side and a second side and defines a first opening. The heater assembly comprises a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) laminated on the first side of the base along an inner edge of the base. The PCB defines a second opening, wherein the first opening and the second opening are aligned coaxially. The glass window is disposed on the base and the second side of the base is in direct contact with the glass window.

摘要： Systems may include a heater including a plurality of heating elements that may include a first heating element configured to generate heat based on a first current, and a second heating element configured to generate heat based on a second current. Systems may further include an electromagnetic (EM) radiation reducing device configured to cancel electromagnetic emissions from the heater. The EM radiation reducing device may include a first EM radiation reduction element positioned adjacent to a first side of the heater, and a second EM radiation reduction element positioned adjacent to a second side of the heater, where the first and second EM radiation reduction elements have geometries configured based, at least in part, on the heater.

摘要： A heating device includes a heater electrode disposed in the inner portion of a plate-like body and including a heater line portion; and a plurality of specific portions arranged side by side in a predetermined arrangement direction. The heater line portion includes a first heater line portion and a second heater line portion arranged in a location closer than the first heater line portion to the specific portions. The second heater line portion has a projecting line part passing through a first virtual straight line and curving toward a side of the first heater line portion; and a recessed line part extending to avoid a second virtual straight line and curving toward a side opposite to the side of the first heater line portion.

摘要： A method for calibrating a control system configured to control a two-wire heater includes providing power to a load electrically coupled to the control system, generating, an initial measured characteristic and a calibrated measured characteristic of the load by the control system and a controller calibration system, respectively. The method further includes defining a calibrated measurement reference based on a correlation of the initial measured characteristic and the calibrated measured characteristic. With the calibrated measure reference, the control system is further calibrated to define a resistance-temperature calibration reference for determining a working temperature of the two-wire heater based on a measured resistance of the two-wire heater.
