Patent number: 11952253Abstract: A method for operating a filling system with first and second filling points is disclosed. The first filling point has a first unit for controlling and monitoring the filling of the first filling point. The second filling point has a second unit for controlling and monitoring the filling of the second filling point. The first and second units are connected via a communication channel. In an operating state, the first filling point switches to diagnostic mode. The first unit reports the diagnostic start to the second unit. The first unit outputs substitute flow rate or level values. The second unit transmits a deviation message to the first unit in the event of a deviation of the current flow or level value from an expected value. After receipt of the deviation message, the first unit interrupts diagnostic mode and switches to normal operation or outputs corrected substitute flow or level values.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Inventors: Dirk Kuschnerus, Sven Walbrecker, Hansjörg Mucke, Martin Krawczyk-Becker

Patent number: 11360142Abstract: An apparatus for providing a supply voltage to a device under test includes: a controlled source; a switchable resistor circuited between the output of the controlled source and a dut port, having a comparatively smaller first resistance in a first switch state and a second resistance in a second switch state; a regulator that provides a control signal to the controlled source, to regulate a voltage to be provided to the dut. The apparatus changes a switch state of the switchable resistor while a voltage is provided to the dut via the switchable resistor. The apparatus injects a compensation signal into a control loop including the regulator, the controlled source and the switchable resistor, to thereby cause a change of the voltage provided by the controlled source, to at least partially compensate a change of a voltage drop across the switchable resistor.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2019Date of Patent: June 14, 2022Assignee: Advantest CorporationInventors: Martin Mücke, Peter Horvath
