Abstract: An LED drive circuit is disclosed, comprising an electronic controller which is arranged to monitor LED current as a first input. The controller also receives a second input from a sensor associated with the LED. The controller serves to monitor, based on its inputs, at least one further operating parameter of the LED which is either LED junction temperature or LED luminous intensity. The further operating parameter may be directly sensed by the sensor or may be calculated from the inputs to the controller. The controller is adapted to implement a closed loop control on LED current and to thereby limit current as necessary to maintain both the LED current and the further operating parameter below predetermined maximum values. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vehicle latch has a housing (18) with a detent (32) and a stop (34). A lever (12) is pivotally connected to the housing (18) and movable from an install position engaging the housing (18) to an active position pivoted away from the housing (18). A spring (16) extends from the lever (12) to the housing applying a biasing force to the lever (12) urging the lever to the install position. The spring (16) has a tail portion (20), a coil section (22) and an opposite end (24). The opposite end (24) engages the lever (12). The tail end (20) is moveable to engage either the stop (34) or detent (32). In the install position, the tail end (20) engages the detent (32) and also engages the lever (12). In this position, the spring (16) increases the biasing force holding the lever (12) in the install position. The tail end (20) is removable from the detent (32) to engage the stop when the lever (12) is first pivoted away from the install position. This disengages the tail end (20) from the lever (12) and also reduces the biasing force on the lever (12).
