Abstract: A control system for an oven includes a temperature sensor configured to detect a cavity temperature within the cavity, and a controller operatively coupled with the sensor. The oven includes a body having a cavity defined therein and at least one heater positioned within the cavity. The controller is also configured to receive a signal from the sensor, to calculate a rate of temperature change of the cavity temperature, and to adjust a power level of the heater based on the cavity temperature and the calculated rate of temperature change.

Abstract: A control system for a home appliance includes a cabinet, a wash tub positioned within the cabinet and configured to receive laundry therein, and a fill device configured to deliver liquid into the tub. The control system includes a first detecting component configured to detect an amount of the liquid delivered into the wash tub, a second detecting component configured to detect a liquid level in the wash tub, and a controller operatively coupled with the detecting components. The controller is configured to receive signals from the detecting components and calculate an amount of the laundry positioned within the wash tub based on the received signals.
