Abstract: A transmission device (5) for an electrically drivable vehicle axle (1) includes a transmission input shaft (7), a transmission output shaft (10) connected thereto via gear-wheel pairs (8, 9), and a parking lock device (15). The parking lock device (15) is arranged in a transmission housing (11) and includes an electric actuator (16) for actuating a locking pawl (18) engageable with a parking interlock gear (19) operatively connected to the transmission output shaft (10). The locking pawl and the parking interlock gear (19) are arranged in an interior space (14) of the transmission housing (11) that is acted upon by oil, and the electric actuator (16) is arranged in an oil-free interior space (13) of the transmission housing (11). The output shaft (21) of the electric actuator (16) extends through an intermediate wall (12) and is operatively connected to the locking pawl.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a programmable logic device includes a plurality of logic blocks and a logic unit. The logic blocks are grouped into one or more partitions. The logic unit controls external access to the one or more partitions, controls programming of the one or more partitions and controls interconnection and operation of the one or more partitions during operation of the programmable logic device.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a programmable logic device includes a plurality of logic blocks, memory, a plurality of connection control elements and a logic unit. The logic blocks are grouped into one or more programmed partitions. The memory stores authentication information and partition information. The connection control elements controllably interconnect different ones of the logic blocks. The logic unit controls external access to the one or more partitions based on the authentication information, controls reprogramming of the one or more partitions based on at least some of the partition information and configures the connection control elements based on at least some of the partition information.

Abstract: Methods and systems for transferring information to a device include assigning a unique identifier to a device and generating a unique key for the device. The device is located at a first site, and the unique identifier is sent from the device to a second site. The unique key is obtained at the second site, and it is used for encrypting information at the second site. The encrypted information is sent from the second site to the device, where it can then be decrypted.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling a device. Data that was encrypted using a first encryption scheme is decrypted, then re-encrypted using a second encryption scheme. The re-encrypted data is then decrypted.

Abstract: According to an embodiment, a programmable logic device includes a plurality of logic blocks, memory and a logic unit. The logic blocks are grouped into one or more partitions. The memory stores authentication and partition information uploaded to the programmable logic device prior to partition programming. The logic unit authenticates programming access to the one or more partitions based on the authentication information and controls programming of the one or more partitions based on the partition information.

Abstract: A system and method for transferring information include generating a public/private key pair for programming equipment and sending the programming equipment public key to a certificate authority. A programming equipment certificate is generated using the programming equipment public key and a private key of the certificate authority. The programming equipment certificate and a certificate authority certificate are sent to the programming equipment. Information is transferred to or from the programming equipment in response to an authentication using the programming equipment certificate and the certificate authority certificate.
