  • Publication number: 20130278069
    Abstract: Provided is a power supply system which is capable of controlling a power receive device to have an input voltage or an input current at a predetermined input setting value even when a power supply device and the power receive device are connected to each other with an arbitrary power cable. The power receive device detects the input voltage or the input current inputted through the power cable and transmits a detected input voltage or input current as power-receive side information to the power supply device through the power cable. The power supply device controls the output value of an output voltage or an output current to be outputted to the power cable based on the power-receive side information received through the power cable so that the input voltage or the input current to be inputted to the power receive device is converged on a predetermined input setting value.

  • Patent number: 8204674
    Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling an engine, an input switching unit switches an input signal to be inputted to an input path from a crank signal to a cam signal when it is determined that the crank signal is abnormal. An event signal generating unit generates a crank-input event signal while it is determined that the crank signal is abnormal by an abnormality determining unit. The crank-input event signal has a level that repetitively changes in a predetermined direction. Each level change of the crank-input event signal is synchronized with a corresponding level change of the crank signal. A monitoring unit monitors a level change of the crank-input event signal while it is determined that the crank signal is abnormal by the abnormality determining unit.

  • Patent number: 7819106
    Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling an engine, an irregular-region start detector detects that a predetermined-directed level change in an input signal is synchronized with a start of appearance of an irregular region thereof. An irregular-region end detector detects that a predetermined-directed level change in the input signal is synchronized with an end of the irregular region thereof. A fixing unit fixes a reference interval to a predetermined value when it is detected that the predetermined-directed level change in the input signal is synchronized with the start of appearance of the irregular region thereof. A resetting unit resets the reference interval from the predetermined-value to one of the measured intervals when it is detected that the predetermined-directed level change in the input signal is synchronized with the end of the irregular region thereof.

  • Patent number: 7428459
    Abstract: In an apparatus for controlling an engine, an abnormality determining unit determines whether the crank signal is abnormal based on a state of a input signal for an interval measuring unit. The interval measuring unit measures a time interval from when a predetermined-directed level change appears in the input signal and a temporally next predetermined-directed level change appears therein. An input unit switches the input signal for the interval measuring unit from a crank signal to a cam signal when it is determined that the crank signal is abnormal. The crank signal has a level that repetitively changes in a predetermined direction each time the crankshaft rotates by a first angle. The cam signal has a level that repetitively changes in time in a predetermined direction each time the camshaft rotates at least by a second angle different from the first angle.

  • Patent number: 7299308
    Abstract: An electronic control unit has two microcomputers. Each microcomputer has a data buffer storing data first to be transmitted in every 8 ms, a second data buffer storing data to be transmitted in every 16 ms, and a third data buffer storing data to be transmitted in every 16 ms and being different from the first and second data buffers. The microcomputer transfers at the transmission timing of every 8 ms data in the first data buffer to the transmitting buffer, while it transfers alternately the data in the second data buffer and the data in the third data buffer to the transmitting buffer. The microcomputer also transfers an ID that indicates content of the present transmitting data to the transmitting buffer.
