Abstract: A data channel includes a power constrained first channel portion to receive energy from a limited power source and a non-power constrained second channel portion to receive energy from a different power source than the first channel portion. The first channel portion includes an ADC circuit to output an ADC data sample, a first transmitter circuit configured to serially transmit data that includes ON bits and OFF bits, and logic circuitry configured to derive transmit data from the ADC data sample. The transmitter circuit uses more energy transmitting the ON bits than the OFF bits, and the derived transmit data has a reduced number of the ON bits from the ADC data sample. The second channel portion includes a first receiver circuit to receive the derived transmit data from the first transmitter circuit of the first channel portion.

Abstract: An apparatus for synchronizing participants of a simulation, including: a plurality of partitions, a backplane, and a synchronizer. Each partition is configured to run a respective simulation participant independently from other simulation participants. The backplane connects the plurality of partitions and is configured to transfer data between the plurality of partitions. The data include time stamps indicating a partition time of a simulation participant on at least one partition. The synchronizer is configured to synchronize the multiple partitions by stopping the running simulation participant of the at least one partition, when a time stamp of the running simulation participant is outside a synchronization window. The synchronization window has a predetermined time length indicating a range of acceptable time stamps (T1, T2) and starts with time (T0) associated with a time stamp of a slowest running simulation participant.

Abstract: A digital isolator includes a receiver configured to receive digital raw data at a primary side of the digital isolator. A digital-to-digital encoder is disposed at the primary side of the digital isolator. The digital-to-digital encoder is configured to create coded data. One or more digital isolators are configured to transmit the coded data across a transformer and an isolation barrier to create output coded data. A digital-to digital decoder is disposed at a secondary side of the digital isolator. The digital-to digital decoder is configured to decode the output coded data to create decoded data, determine error in coupling across the digital isolator based on the decoded data and the digital raw data, and provide an error signal based the error in coupling across the digital isolator.

Abstract: A pump system for a motor vehicle having a first pump and a second pump which can be driven by an electric motor and/or an internal combustion engine, wherein the first pump and the second pump can be coupled by a clutch. A method of operating a pump system in a motor vehicle includes driving a first pump and a second pump by an electric motor and/or an internal combustion engine by coupling the first pump and a second pump.
