  • Publication number: 20210123567
    Abstract: A system and a method for sensing hydrogen charge state of a fuel cell electric vehicle are provided. The system includes an infrared transmission unit that transmits a fuel door sensing infrared signal for sensing a fuel door opened while charging hydrogen and a nozzle sensing infrared signal for sensing a charging station-side hydrogen charging nozzle connected to a hydrogen charging inlet of a vehicle. An infrared reception unit receives the fuel door sensing infrared signal and thereafter, reflected on a fuel door and the nozzle sensing infrared signal transmitted from the infrared transmission unit and thereafter, reflected on the hydrogen charging nozzle. A controller determines that the vehicle is being charged with hydrogen when sensing an open state of the fuel door and a hydrogen charging inlet connection state of the hydrogen charging nozzle.

  • Patent number: 10944405
    Abstract: Disclosed is a phase-locked loop which alternately operates in a sleep state and an active state. A frequency-divided output signal of the phase-locked loop is synchronized with a frequency-divided reference signal. When the phase-locked loop switches from a sleep state to an active state, a frequency of the frequency-divided output signal is identical to a frequency of a frequency-divided output signal which has been synchronized in a previous active state. Information corresponding to the frequency of the frequency-divided output signal which has been synchronized in the previous active state is stored in a memory device.
