Patent number: 11855799Abstract: In embodiments of an autonomous vehicle platform and safety architecture, safety managers of a safety-critical system monitor outputs of linked components of the safety-critical system. The linked components comprise at least three components, each of which is configured to produce output indicative of a same event independent from the other linked components by using different input information than the other linked components. The safety managers also compare the outputs of the linked components to determine whether each output indicates the occurrence of a same event. When the output of one linked component does not indicate the occurrence of an event that is indicated by the outputs of the other linked components, the safety managers identify the one linked component as having failed. Based on this, the outputs of the other linked components are used to carry out operations of the safety-critical system without using the output of the failed component.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2019Date of Patent: December 26, 2023Assignee: VAY TECHNOLOGY GMBHInventors: Joshua John Hartung, Peter Brink, Jonathan Lamb, David Paul Miller

Patent number: 6918049Abstract: A clock synthesizer produces an output clock that has a programmable phase offset from the input clock. The clock synthesizer includes an accumulator and an offset adder. The output clock is derived from the offset adder. The offset adder receives a value derived from the accumulator and a selected phase offset value. The phase difference between the non-aligned output clock and the aligned output clock is determined by the phase offset value. The time resolution of the clock synthesizer may be defined by the clock rate of the system and the number of bits used in the offset adder and the accumulator.Type: GrantFiled: July 18, 2002Date of Patent: July 12, 2005Assignee: Semtech CorporationInventors: Jonathan Lamb, Wolfgang Bruchner, Richard Lansdowne

Patent number: 6646478Abstract: A phase detection system allows the capture range, lock range and jitter tolerance to be extended beyond ±360°. The capture range for the phase detection system may be extended in programmable amounts up to several thousand clock cycles or can be set to any desired maximum capture range in steps of approximately 360°. The phase detection system circuit utilizes a coarse phase detector and a fine phase detector. The phase detection system uses the digital cycle slip counter phase detector to provide a wide phase capture and lock range for a large jitter tolerance. The phase detection system combines this detector with a fine phase measurement from a PFD (phase and frequency detector) for very accurate phase control and low output jitter. The PFD operates in the approximately ±540° range and provides overlap in response with a coarse phase detector using a digital cycle counter approach.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2002Date of Patent: November 11, 2003Assignee: Semtech CorporationInventor: Jonathan Lamb

Patent number: 6483389Abstract: An improvement to a phase and frequency detector (PFD) employs an additional reset control that acts to effectively reset the registers that generate the phase indicator signals if an undesirable preconditioned state has been entered. The additional reset control signal is generated by a register that is enabled upon detection of the preconditioned state. The new reset control signal is activated upon detection of a synchronizing signal, that is based on an input source signal, while the enable control is active. The improved detector can allows a phase locked loop (PLL) system locking to the nearest input reference clock edge and it can provide immunity to missing input clock edges.Type: GrantFiled: July 19, 2001Date of Patent: November 19, 2002Assignee: Semtech CorporationInventor: Jonathan Lamb
