Title: Random number generator circuit with bit-level seed input
Inventor: IDGUNJI SACHIN SATISH
IPC: G06F7/58
Filed: 2013-09-16
Abstract: A storage circuit in the form of a master slave latch includes a slave stage 6 serving as a bit storage circuit. The slave stage includes an inverter chain which when operating in a normal mode includes an even number of inverters 10, 12 and when operating in a random number generation mode includes an odd number of inverters 10, 12, 14 and so functions as a free running ring oscillator. Switching from the random number generation mode to the normal mode stops the oscillation, and a stable pseudo random bit value is output. The storage circuit may be used in a signal whitening circuit (see figure 6), in the form of a linear feedback shift register (LFSR) comprising eg. eight master slave latches of the form shown in figure 1. The linear feedback shift register may be seeded with a multi-bit pseudo random number fed into the input stages of the master slave latches.

Title: Method of operating a fuel injector
Inventor: MELIS MASSIMILIANO
IPC: F02M51/06
Filed: 2014-02-17
Abstract: Disclosed is a method of operating a fuel injector 160 of an internal combustion engine 110. The method comprises supplying a first energizing electrical current to an injector solenoid 161, causing the opening of an injector control volume CV and a pressure reduction insaid injector control volume CV, for a first energizing time ET1, which is predetermined to avoid that the pressure in the injector control volume CV approximates a value which would cause an injector needle 163 to raise up and a fuel injection to start. After a predetermined time interval DT a second energizing electrical current 520 is supplied to the injector solenoid 161, for a predetermined second energizing time ET2, which is a function of a rail pressure and a fuel injection quantity. Effectively the first energizing current is used to hold the needle in a position just short of opening for injection and so prime the needle to allow rapid response to the second part which provides the actual fuel injection.
