Abstract: A method of calibrating the control current start-up threshold in a proportionally controlled drive system (11) for a work vehicle (10) is disclosed. To determine a current threshold value for use in the system (11) a control current (IC1/IC2) exhibiting a relatively low value is first applied to the system. Subsequently, the steps of repetitively increasing the control current to a control current start value at which system motion starts and decreasing the control current to a control current stop value at which system motion substantially stops are repetitively conducted. The resultant control current start values and control current stop values are stored in a memory (117). The stored control current start values and control current stop values are then averaged to determine a control current threshold value for use in controlling the system.

Abstract: An improved sigma-delta modulator is disclosed. The sigma-delta modulator utilizes Micro Electro Mechanical System (MEMS) technology coupled with on-chip LC networks. MEMS switches are used to switch capacitors and inductors in and out of the network to alter the center frequency and tuning range of the sigma-delta modulator, thus eliminating active components in each LC network. Furthermore, the use of MEMS switches improves the Q of each LC network relative to previous on-chip sigma-delta modulator designs. The increased Q of each LC network reduces or eliminates the need for active Q-enhancement circuitry and improves the inherent filter shape within the loop of the sigma-delta modulator. In addition, the distortion of active components with the loop of the sigma-delta modulator also is improved. The addition of a decimator to the chip presents a complete single chip LC sigma-delta analog-to-digital converter.
