Title: Graphical lighting control system
Inventor: KARAM BHAMRA
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 2017-01-10
Abstract: Methods and systems for automatically generating a lighting program 108 for use by a lighting control server 106. An image of an environment that has one or more adjustable light elements and features is displayed to a user, e.g. on a graphical user interface 112 of an end user device 110 such as a tablet computer. The user can indicate they wish a lighting program (executable by a lighting control server) to be generated that will cause the light elements to be configured as shown in the image. Such indication causes the lighting program to be automatically generated. In some examples, prior to indicating a lighting program is to be generated, the user may be able to adjust the configuration of one or more of the adjustable light elements and features, any adjustments being reflected in the image so the user can see the effect of these adjustments on the image prior to generating a lighting program.

Title: An isolated high side driver
Inventor: KARL RINNE
IPC: H03K17/691
Filed: 2017-02-07
Abstract: A high-side transistor driver module comprising one transformer and two ICs A high-side semiconductor switch, such as a FET,IGBT or BJT, may be turned on and off by applying positive and negative pulses respectively through a transformer to a drive circuit on the secondary side, a pulse detection circuit being powered by the pulses and the state being maintained by a latch. The positive supply for the secondary circuit may be provided at power-up, while keeping the switch off, by applying negative pulses to charge the supply through an inverting charge pump (C11,D14,D18, figure 14). The power supply in the secondary circuit may be maintained, for example during drive of bipolar transistor switches, by applying low-amplitude pulses. With Q5 enabled, the switch may be turned on or off by applying pulses of greater amplitude to the transformer.  The high-side devices in the arms of the transformer- driving bridge may be driven through a capacitor, a bias management circuit ( figures 19 and 20) compensating the change of DC voltage due to variation in the duty cycle of the PWM drive waveform.
