Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetic friction clutch for arrangement within a drive train connecting a drive motor and a vehicle door. The vehicle door is reliably held in any intermediate position when a clutch is disconnected. To preserve the ability to carry out a manual emergency actuation of the vehicle door, a compression spring is provided acting upon an armature disk of the clutch in the axial direction in such a way that, with the clutch in the disconnected state, the armature disk is pressed against the frictional lining of a rotor part with a force which is sufficient to ensure that the vehicle door remains reliably in position. During a subsequent manual actuation of the vehicle door, the frictional connection between armature disk and frictional lining can be overcome.

Abstract: A stepper motor control circuit reduces ripple current by applying both fast and slow current decays to a motor phase when current is being reduced in the motor phase while following a falling current waveform. The control circuit uses an initial fast decay to reduce a winding current and then switches to a slow decay until a winding current is sampled again. The control circuitry samples a winding current and compares the sampled current to a reference current to determine if current is to be applied or reduced using fast and/or slow decay methods. Different phase current sample circuits allow either constant current sensing or selective current sensing.

Abstract: Method and passive target data acquisition system operable continuously from an observation point for passively sighting a target and acquiring the target on a DTM for passively deriving target data and associated information without emitting radiations prone to detection. The location of the target is shown on a display, and so is an error-area due to measurement inaccuracies. When terrain topography causes the system to indicate more than one error-area, the target and the accompanying error-areas are displayed. The distance between error-areas indicates dead terrain zones. A north finding procedure provides accurate north direction correction to rough north readings taken with a coarse north-indicating device. The system is small enough for integration with handheld personal binoculars, and is operable from static and mobile observation points, possibly on a stabilized platform, on land, at sea, in the air, and in space.
