  • Publication number: 20230044219
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electric arrangement, comprising: (a) functional modules, which can serve both as transaction initiators or transaction targets, whereby a transaction initiating functional module may need a transaction target functional module to execute a function for and on its behalf; (b) a first interconnect fabric connecting the functional modules and providing communication between those functional modules; wherein the (electric) arrangement being arranged in that a selected transaction initiation functional module has temporally exclusive access to transaction target functional module(s), executing a function for and on its behalf, to ensure that transaction initiating functional modules other than the selected transaction initiation functional module, have no uncontrolled access thereto, wherein said selected transaction initiation functional module being a hardware secure module.

  • Patent number: 8688293
    Abstract: An apparatus on an integrated circuit, and method thereof, provides a real-time flexible interface between inputs from a vehicle components and outputs to the vehicle control components. The functions comprises of a programmable interconnection matrix, engine sensors and a control interface. Both engine sensors and control functions comprise of fixed hardwired functions and a customization hardware area. The apparatus therefore provides means for flexible powertrain events control target for the next generation of low-polluting power trains of vehicles.

  • Patent number: 8502721
    Abstract: An apparatus, protocol and methods for reducing vehicle energy consumption and for precise electronic event control, by implementing full CPU off-loading, using pulse-width modulation (PWM) with analog feedback diagnosis enabling real-time operation. Accordingly, analog feedback is used for external integrated circuits (IC) controlled by a PWM output, for processes to be analyzed. The apparatus includes a microprocessor that integrates an autonomous PWM module and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) group manager, each including register modules for enabling analog-to-digital signal conversion comparisons of PWM feedback data, and generating of an interrupt command when required, and more specifically to automatically initiate transfer of data from the ADC to memory responsive of an interrupt trigger. As may be necessary the output of the ADC is calibrated or otherwise scaled to enable proper operation.
