  • Patent number: 11933678
    Abstract: A method for determining ambient temperature of a device in a building control system. The method includes obtaining a measurement of ambient temperature from a first temperature sensor of the device and obtaining a measurement of temperature of a processing circuit of the device. These temperature measurements along with a brightness level of a display of the device and a state of a relay of the device are provided as input to a neural network. The neural network is trained to recognize these inputs in order to more accurately determine the ambient temperature of the device. The reading from the first temperature sensor may otherwise be inaccurate due to heat generated by electronic components of the device.

  • Patent number: 10554133
    Abstract: These teachings apply with respect to a direct current (DC)-output converter and provide for adjusting a number of switching pulses per burst cycle as a function, at least in part, of converter output loading. This adjustment can be made by controlling burst frequency with respect to at least one predetermined threshold frequency. The predetermined threshold frequency can comprise a non-audible frequency such that the number of switching pulses is adjusted to prevent the burst frequency from itself constituting an audible signal. The adjustment of the number of switching pulses per burst cycle may only occur when the output loading is less than a predetermined level of loading. These teachings may also provide for clamping the pulse frequency for the pulses in each burst package to a particular value when dynamically controlling the number of pulses in each burst package. The aforementioned particular value may constitute, for example, a highest available switching frequency.
