Abstract: Aspects are directed to systems and methods of determining a value of a characteristic related to timing between sequential events of an input electronic signal using an input capture counter having a maximum counting value, the input electronic signal having an expected variable period between events whose value is between a maximum period value and a minimum period value with a delta period value equal to a difference between the maximum period value and the minimum period value.

Abstract: According to one aspect, embodiments of the invention provide a system monitor for a load center comprising a current sensor configured to be coupled to a circuit branch within the load center and to produce a measurement signal having a level related to a current level of the circuit branch, a sensor circuit coupled to the current sensor and removably coupled to a terminal, the sensor circuit configured to provide the measurement signal to the terminal, and a controller coupled to the terminal and configured to monitor signals at the terminal, wherein the controller is further configured to detect disconnection of the current sensor from the terminal based on a signal level at the terminal.

Abstract: A method of operating an electronic device includes determining whether one or more operating conditions for allowing the electronic device to operate in a low-power mode are satisfied, preventing the electronic device from operating in the low-power mode if fewer than all of the operating conditions are satisfied, and causing the electronic device to operate in the low-power mode if all of the operating conditions are satisfied.
