  • Patent number: 12395166
    Abstract: An electronic control unit for a restraint control module comprises a PSI5 communications interface configured to communicate with a remote sensor using a current-modulated signal with PSI5 compliance upon a two-wire interconnection. The PSI5 communications interface includes a signal driver configured to apply a signal voltage to a first signal terminal for driving current to the remote sensor via the two-wire interconnection. The PSI5 communications interface also includes a second signal terminal providing a return path for the current; and a resistor within the return path of the PSI5 communications interface. Several different alternative impedance balancing and damping circuits are provided to provide the resistor. The alternative impedance balancing and damping circuits include passive and active resistors. The impedance balancing and damping circuit may also provide current protection against damage due to fault currents.

  • Patent number: 12286378
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of containing PFAS within a low permeability cementitious product, the method comprising: forming a cementitious slurry, the cementitious slurry comprising: cement; water; aggregate; and allowing the cementitious slurry to cure and thereby form a cementitious product; wherein one or more of the water and the aggregate is contaminated with PFAS; and further wherein the method comprises adding one or more of: siliceous pozzolans; plasticizer(s); and crystalline growth water-proofing compound(s), in an amount sufficient to produce a cementitious product comprising low water permeability, the low water permeability substantially preventing leaching of PFAS.

  • Patent number: 11018843
    Abstract: A restraint control module is provided in this disclosure. The restraint control module is configured to communicate a sync pulse to a sensor. The control module may include a sync pulse driver circuit and a memory. The memory may store the waveform profile of a sync pulse. The sync pulse driver circuit generates a sync pulse in response to the waveform profile stored in the memory. The sync pulse may be transmitted to one or more sensors. The waveform profile stored in the memory may be derived from a sync pulse with reduced electro-magnetic emissions by applying spectrum analysis.
