  • Patent number: 6722017
    Abstract: A planar inductor having at least a helical coil and a coating of ferromagnetic material deposited on a flat carrier. The inductance and/or the magnetic coupling of a plurality of coils or windings of the inductor can be set precisely through the ferromagnetic material, which is inside an insulant window that is fixed to the carrier, being deposited on the carrier during the coating process.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 10, 2003
    Date of Patent: April 20, 2004
    Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.
    Inventors: Ulrich Rittner, Heiner Schmidt

  • Patent number: 4217754
    Abstract: A control device produces a control deviation signal representing the difference between the commanded engine speed and the actual engine speed. Before this signal is applied to a fuel control unit to establish the rate of fuel flow to the engine, its time derivative is limited to a value substantially proportional to the distance that the operating state of the engine is from the surge line. In one embodiment the control deviation signal is differentiated with a lag corresponding to the lag of the fuel control unit before effecting said limiting and, after said limiting is effected, is integrated with a lead corresponding to said lag.

  • Patent number: 4171613
    Abstract: The commanded rotational speed is compared with the actual rotational speed to produce a deviation signal. This deviation signal is multiplied by a coefficient which is determined by state variables (speed and intake pressure) of the engine and a proportional component plus an integral component of the multiplication product is employed as a control signal. This control signal is checked to make sure that it is outside critical engine states associated with the actual performance of the engine. On this control signal is superposed a signal representing the steady-state fuel flow associated with the commanded rotary speed (or under some circumstances the actual rotary speed) to determine the fuel flow rate to the engine.
