  • Patent number: 10779382
    Abstract: A semiconductor device for outputting a control parameter includes a receiving unit, a storage unit and an output unit. The semiconductor device also contains antenna connections, supply connections and at least one output connection for outputting a control parameter signal. The receiving unit contains connections for connection to an antenna, from which the receiving unit receives signals. The receiving unit converts the signals received from the antenna into data. The data are stored in the storage unit. The semiconductor device outputs an output signal at the output connection on the basis of the data stored in the storage unit. The semiconductor device additionally contains a calculation unit which determines the operating hours (time) of the semiconductor device. The output signal depends both on the data stored in the storage unit and on the determined operating hours (time).

  • Publication number: 20200038933
    Abstract: In a method for producing a component by further forming of a preformed contour of a blank, the blank which has previously been cut to size at ambient temperature from a strip or a metal sheet undergoes after optional further manufacturing steps carried out at ambient temperature, e.g. punching or cutting operations to realize recesses or openings, in selected edge regions that have been strain hardened by the punching or cutting operations to obtain a preformed contour a first forming operation at ambient temperature. The edge regions intended to undergo the forming operation or at least the edge regions that have undergone the first forming operation are heated to a temperature of at least 600° C. for maximal 10 seconds. After the heat treatment, the edge regions undergo at any time a second forming operation or further forming operations at ambient temperature with respectively preceding heat treatments.
