  • ELECTRICAL DEVICE
    Publication number: 20250015585
    Abstract: An electrical device including an input and/or an output having at least one first terminal each and one second terminal each. For reducing the current across the first terminal, at least one further first terminal electrically in parallel to the first terminal and for reducing the current across the second terminal, at least one further second terminal electrically in parallel to the second terminal. The terminals are assigned a temperature sensor that detects the temperature of the device in an area of the respective terminals.

  • Method for dimming a light-emitting diode arrangement of a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 8669714
    Abstract: The invention concerns a process to dim a light emitting diode device of a motor vehicle. In order to keep changes of the light intensity from being noticeable, they must be appropriately small. Electronic dimmers with pulse width modulation have historically required a microcontroller with a pulse width modulation generator with at least 10 bits. In order to use cheaper controllers, the invention proposes that the pulse width signal be modulated as a function of a variable on-period and a simultaneously variable period length.
