  • Publication number: 20240030775
    Abstract: An electric machine for use within the powertrain of a hybrid or fully electric motor vehicle includes a stator and a rotor, said stator and rotor being received in an engine housing. The engine housing has at least one A-bearing shield and at least one B-bearing shield (6) for supporting the rotor relative to the engine housing, wherein the A-bearing shield and/or the B-bearing shield has/have a multipart design, in particular a two-part design, in each case comprising a respective annular inner shield and an annular outer shield, and the inner shield is arranged radially within the outer shield such that an annular space is formed between the inner shield and the outer shield. A connection shield is at least partly arranged in the annular space so that the inner shield and the outer shield are secured in the radial direction by the connection shield.

  • Publication number: 20230387761
    Abstract: A device for measuring the temperature of a coil device in an electric machine having a temperature sensor, a first section which produces a first restoring force, a second section which receives the temperature sensor, a third section which has a first fixing element, and a fourth section which produces a second restoring force. The first restoring force and the second restoring force act in a common direction, and the second section is arranged between the first section and the fourth section.

  • Patent number: 9853655
    Abstract: In some examples, a method includes controlling a first set of switches to deliver a first voltage signal through a first set of capacitors to a common node. The method also includes controlling a second set of switches to deliver a second voltage signal through a second set of capacitors to the common node, wherein the first set of capacitors is electrically connected to the second set of capacitors by the common node. The method further includes measuring a time duration to discharge the common node. The second voltage signal includes an opposing polarity to the first voltage signal.

  • Patent number: 8619639
    Abstract: A disclosed circuit arrangement may include a power detector. A multiplexer circuit may be coupled to the power detector. The multiplexer circuit may include at least two switching sections, one of the switching sections to pass a radio frequency (RF) signal generated based on a first modulation scheme to the power detector and another of the switching sections to pass an RF signal generated based on a second modulation scheme to the power detector.

  • Patent number: 7109785
    Abstract: Current source for generating a constant reference current having an amplifier circuit, which outputs a negative feedback voltage, present across a first resistor, in inverted amplified fashion as amplification output voltage; a first voltage/current converter, which generates a current in a manner dependent on the amplifier output voltage; a first current mirror circuit, which mirrors the current generated by the voltage/current converter to form a mirrored current which flows through the first resistor in order to generate the negative feedback voltage; and having a second current mirror circuit, which mirrors the current generated by the voltage/current converter to form the reference current.

  • Patent number: 6914491
    Abstract: In a phase control loop, an output signal which is used to control an oscillator in a PLL or a phase-delay device in a DLL is generated by means of a phase/frequency detector. In accordance with the invention, the oscillator or the phase-delay device is controlled by means of a control signal which is made up of a controlling component and an adjusting component. The controlling component is generated as a proportional function of the output signal, whereas the adjusting component is generated as a proportional function of the low-pass-filtered output signal. At low frequencies, the loop gain is higher in this case for generating the adjusting component than for generating the controlling component, which means that the output signal and the component parts through which it passes can be operated at their optimum operating point, at the centre of the range of variation for example. The adjusting component may be generated by both analog and digital procedures.

  • Publication number: 20050077970
    Abstract: A method and a device for controlling an oscillator (1) are proposed, wherein a first control signal (b) is generated depending on an output signal (e) of the oscillator (1) and on a first reference signal (a), and a second control signal (d) is generated depending on the first control signal (b) and on a second reference signal (c), and wherein the oscillator (1) is subjected to the first control signal (b) and to the second control signal (d) and generates the output signal (e) with a frequency dependent on the first control signal (b) and on the second control signal (d). A low-noise phase locked loop with a large possible frequency range can be realised by such a method and such a device.
