Abstract: A powertrain including an engine (10) controlled by the position of a throttle valve (24), a hydrodynamic torque converter (14) having a bypass clutch (34), multiple ratio automatic transmission (18) connected to the drive wheels of the vehicle, a solenoid-operated hydraulic valve (38) that supplies pressurized fluid to engage and release the bypass clutch (34), is controlled by operation of a feedforward control system (44). An engine math model (60) produces a signal representing the net torque output by the engine (T e ,), which signal is applied as input to an inverse mathematical model (62) of the solenoid-operated valve (38) that supplies hydraulic fluid to the bypass clutch (34). The unique relationship of phase to gain, the frequency response of the solenoid valve, is inverted to remove the effects of delay and transient rise time. Torque converter slip error (e s ) determined as the difference between torque converter impeller speed (N i ) and turbine speed (N t ) is applied as input to a PID compensated feedback control (46) whose output is summed with the inverse of the solenoid valve frequency response to produce a duty cycle supplied to the solenoid of the bypass pressure hydraulic valve (38).

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de réalisation de diode laser à émission de surface à puits quantiques multiples, comportant une seule opération épitaxiale et une seule opération d'implantation et diffusion d'impuretés dopantes. Les dimensions latérales du laser sont définies par application d'un masquage (3) sur la région active (10) avant l'implantation d'impuretés dopantes tout autour de la région active (10), évitant l'étape de gravure chimique classique avec ces conséquences néfastes sur l'espérance de vie du laser fini. La construction du laser selon le procédé de l'invention permet d'optimiser séparément les caractéristiques de confinement optique (selon l'axe de propagation de la lumière) et de confinement de porteurs de charge dans la région active (10) (perpendiculaire à l'axe de propagation). Les épaisseurs des couches épitaxiales d'un premier miroir distribue de type Bragg et des couches (8,6) de la région active (puits quantiques (8) et couches intercalaires (6) ou super réseaux) sont choisies pour optimiser les gains (dans chaque puits quantique) et pour minimiser les pertes (surtout dans le miroir) de façon à optimiser le courant de seuil et le rendement énergétique du laser. L'invention concerne également des lasers réalisés selon le procédé. De tels lasers seront particulièrement adaptés à l'utillsation en réseau de diodes lasers, commandées individuellement ou non. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This overload protection circuit capable of sustaining high capacitive load or any other load which may create an important inrush current, comprises a differential bridge composed of high impedance measuring resistors (R1, R1', R3, R3'), a low impedance sensing resistor (R2), and a timing and control circuit (20) including a transistor (T2), a capacitor (C1) and resistors that controls a switch (T1) and limits the inrush current of the subcircuit capacitor by slowing the closing of the switch. In case of defaults, the switch will be opened fast enough to minimize the fault transient transfer from down-stream to up-stream of the protection circuit. In addition, a comparator (32) associated to a resistor (R31) providing an hysteresis enables to avoid the oscillations in the region of the system transition from on to off states and vice versa. This circuit can be used in a system which comprises a secondary power supply unit (9) which powers a plurality of subcircuits (22).

Abstract: On décrit un système et un procédé de communication entre un premier et second noeuds connectés par une liaison en série, selon lesquels les données sont transmises entre les noeuds sous forme de paquets composés de blocs de bits. Le second noeud accuse réception de chaque paquet qu'il a correctement reçu par l'intermédiaire d'une paire de blocs de multibits. Ces blocs peuvent être imbriqués dans les blocs composant tout paquet de données sortant qui est en train d'être transmis par le second noeud. La technique utilisée permet d'accuser réception de chaque paquet de données sans ambiguïté, et, si un paquet de données a été incorrectement reçu, le paquet est disponible dans un tampon dans le premier noeud pour être réexpédié.

Abstract: Une transmission à changement de vitesse automatique (10) comprend un dispositif à friction ou embrayage à modes multiples (90) présentant une sensibilité au couple afin de maintenir en position de réaction dans une direction d'entraînement, et de manière fonctionnelle, l'engrenage de changement de vitesse (44), et qui se déclenche automatiquement à la manière d'un embrayage d'un côté ou à roue libre en cas d'inversions de couple pour permettre un changement souple inhérent entre les rapports de transmission. Pour rétrograder en mode propulsion, l'embrayage à modes multiples (90) se met automatiquement en prise à la manière d'une roue libre, ce qui permet de passer sans à-coups et de manière synchronisée à la vitesse inférieure, l'embrayage assurant la configuration appropriée des éléments de l'engrenage. Cet embrayage (90) peut aussi être entièrement verrouillé pour permettre le freinage du moteur lorsque l'on descend une pente. En mode de débrayage, l'embrayage à modes multiples (90) est entièrement débrayé à la fois dans la direction d'entraînement et dans celle de roulement à roue libre. Avec cet embrayage à modes multiples, la longueur de transmission peut être raccourcie de manière significative et des transmissions existantes peuvent être converties aisément et de manière économique à partir de boîtes à friction conventionnelles en boîtes du type à roue libre.

Abstract: A node potential V1 which is obtained by the division of an internal reference potential (V REF ) and a substrate potential (V BB ) and another node potential V2 which is obtained by the division of the internal reference potential (V REF ) and the ground potential (GND) are compared with each other by a current-mirror amplifier (100). The initial setting (V BB  = GND) of the above two node potentials (V1 and V2) is made as V1 > V2. When the substrate potential (V BB ) becomes large in its absolute value, the node potential V1 falls following such change and, when it reaches a predetermined substrate potential, the potentials result in V1 < V2. Then, a true output node (N11) of the current-mirror amplifier outputs an output of a largely inverted output level which is further amplified by at least one inverter (I₁ through I n ). The semiconductor integrated circuit device is capable of detecting the predetermined substrate potential even if there exist variations in the threshold values in MOS transistors concerned in the fabricating process.
