Abstract: Provided are a binder composition, an electrode, a battery and a power consuming device. The binder composition comprises a fluoropolymer A and a copolymer B, wherein the copolymer B comprises a structural unit derived from a monomer containing a cyano group and a structural unit derived from a monomer containing an ester group. The binder of the present application has a strong bonding force, and the cycling performance of the secondary battery comprising same is excellent.

Abstract: A method of indirect tire pressure monitoring for indicating when a pneumatic tire on a wheel at one end of a motor vehicle axle is underpressurized relative to a pneumatic tire on a wheel at an opposite end of the axle while the vehicle is being driven on a road surface. ABS wheel sensors are used as inputs to a devoted processor for indirect tire pressure monitoring.

Abstract: Redundant power supplies and redundant channels of communication maximize the probability that a controller will trigger a battery disconnect switch to open when commanded to do so.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device of generating simulation signals for Controller Area Network (CAN). The device in this invention simulates CAN data streams normally generated by electronic control units (ECUs) in automobiles, vehicles, boats, etc. without the presence of these ECUs. The device in this invention has a visual display of simulated signals' values. In addition, this invention reveals a remote terminal method and software. The remote terminal software in this invention can control the simulated signal via graphic user interfaces. The remote terminal software in this invention also displays the precise values of simulated signals via graphic user interfaces. Furthermore, this invention presents an advantageous method using a license identification management technique to change the functionality and features of the simulation device without any hardware modifications and without sending the device back to the device manufacturer.

Abstract: A method comprising two steps is provided for a simplified on-site bootloading process. Step 1: having a computer or similar device preload initialization instructions and executable codes to an intermediate device. Step 2: having that said device transfer such initialization instructions and executable codes to the operating device. The intermediate device named “bootloader-to-go” is provided in this invention. The said bootloader-to-go device provides the uncomplicated transferring of the initialization instructions and executable codes to the operating device without complex configuration steps. The said bootloader-to-go device is handheld, operated by a single operating switch and is equipped with versatile I/O bus connections compatible to operating devices with various I/O types. There is no need of a hosting computer or similar device on site, the bootloading speed is not controlled by a hosting computer, and therefore the bootloading time is predictable and can be repeated.

Abstract: Detection of a permanent dominant state on a Controller Area Network node, occurring nearly simultaneously with development of the state, is used to the node from the network. Detection is independent of the application environment.
