Abstract: A flyback converter control architecture is provided in which primary-only feedback techniques are used to ensure smooth startup and detection of fault conditions. During steady-state operation, secondary-side regulation is employed. In addition, current limits are monitored during steady-state operation using primary-only feedback techniques to obviate the need for a secondary-side current sense resistor.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving the post-sale satisfaction of customer accounts (and the associated users) with software applications, products, and services. This may include the creation of a more personalized form of user assistance in one or more of on-boarding, training, using, or resolving problems encountered when using a software application, product, or service. The disclosed methods and approaches support customized, personalized, and automatically generated interactions with end users and may provide one or more of benefits, such as reducing churn, retaining company accounts, and/or upselling other products and services using an appropriate and account (or user)-specific form of incentive.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a powertrain having an electric machine and an engine. The vehicle also includes a controller programmed to operate the powertrain according to a predicted vehicle speed profile for a predetermined route segmented according to a group of driving zone types, wherein each driving zone type is associated with a different characteristic speed profile shape and vehicle location. The controller is further programmed to update the predicted segment speed profile in response to deviation between the predicted speed profile and a measured speed profile.
