Patents by Inventor Dragos Vocurek

Dragos Vocurek has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Sensor device and method
    Patent number: 11561115
    Abstract: Sensor devices and corresponding methods are provided. When a signal path output (COMP OUT) indicates no threshold crossings, diagnosis is performed with a timing based on a clock. In case threshold crossings are indicated, diagnosis is performed with a timing based on threshold crossings.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 4, 2020
    Date of Patent: January 24, 2023
    Assignee: Infineon Technologies AG
    Inventors: Dragos Vocurek, Hans-Joerg Wagner
  • ROTATIONAL ANGLE SENSOR DEVICE AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A ROTATIONAL ANGLE, AND CONTROL DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRIC MOTOR
    Publication number: 20220290968
    Abstract: A rotational angle sensor device and a corresponding method are provided. Two signals which have a phase offset with respect to one another are generated based on a modulated magnetic field using a sensor arrangement. Three signals which have a phase offset with respect to one another are generated from the signals.

  • Circuit and method for providing an output signal
    Patent number: 10734992
    Abstract: An output circuit including an output transistor configured to provide an output signal; and a gate switch configured to decouple a gate of the output transistor from other components of the output circuit when there is a decrease in a supply voltage of the output circuit, wherein when the gate of the output transistor is decoupled, a charge at the gate is maintained in a capacitor inherent within the gate of the output transistor.
