  • Patent number: 9590302
    Abstract: An active antenna module is disclosed. The active antenna module comprises a loop antenna, a RF transistor, a LR series circuit, a first bypass capacitor and a second bypass capacitor. The RF transistor comprises a control port, a first port, and a second port. Each of two ends of the loop antenna is electrically connected to one of the control port and the second port, and the control port and the second port are out of phase. The second port is electrically connected to the first port via the first bypass capacitor. The first port is electrically connected to ground via the LR series circuit. The second bypass capacitor and a resistor of the LR series circuit are connected in parallel.

  • Patent number: 7196778
    Abstract: A circuitry for measuring a time interval with ring oscillator has a ring oscillator formed by a plurality of delay switching units, a counter and an encoder. Wherein, the ring oscillator generates a plurality of oscillating signals when receives a pulse signal used to turn on or turn off the ring oscillator. The counter can count the numbers of the oscillating signal during an active period of the pulse signal to generate a counting value. In addition, the encoder encodes the oscillation signals generated by a plurality of delay switching unit with a certain interval of delay time. Therefore, when the pulse signal is disabled to lead to turn off the ring oscillator, one can obtain the time interval of the pulse signal based on the encode data and the counting value.

  • Patent number: 6109648
    Abstract: An adaptive activation control device for an occupant restraint system of a vehicle is provided that includes an electrical energy reserve circuit, an electronic accelerometer, a microprocessor unit, an electromechanical impact sensor, a firing circuit control unit, and a warning light driving circuit. The restraint system activation is determined by the two kinds of impact sensors. The first of the sensors is the electronic accelerometer, which provides analog output signals that are converted into digital signals. Then, the digital signals are processed by an algorithm in the microprocessor unit. Finally, the activation of the occupant restraint system will be determined by the adaptive triggering threshold. The second of the sensors is the electromechanical impact sensor. The impact sensor is connected in series with the firing circuit for higher safety. Both of the sensors have to operate normally in order for the adaptive control unit to work properly.
