Patent EP-1311933-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BRUHNKE MICHAEL
IPC: G06F1/12
Filed: 2001-08-21
Abstract: In accordance with the USB specifications, an accuracy of 0.25% is required for the data transmission rate. To generate a clock signal that allows this accuracy, the invention uses a clock generator unit that does not require a crystal. The clock generator unit includes an internal clock generator, a pulse counter that is connected to the internal clock generator, a pulse number memory, and a pulse filter. The pulse counter counts the number of internally generated clock pulses between two pulses of the synchronization signal, which are transmitted in accordance with the USB specification. The difference between the ascertained pulse number and a nominal pulse number is evaluated and is used for controlling the pulse-suppressing pulse filter. This results in a stabilized clock signal.

Abstract: A vehicle control system has a diagnosis information of
power systems mounted on a vehicle which is received and
recognized to check whether the information contains a
diagnosis result indicating the presence of trouble. With
the presence of trouble, the trouble location is estimated
from various data and service procedures are decided,
whereby advance order of corresponding parts and smooth
proceeding of work schedules can be realized. With the
absence of trouble, all kinds of vehicle information are
acquired to compute deteriorated conditions of parts and
systems, to estimate deterioration characteristics and
remaining spans of life, and to compute the timing of
service to be made. The user is notified of the service
timing and the diagnosis result, while various kinds of
information are distributed to a dealer and recorded in a
database. An advance notice of the check timing is given to
the user before the occurrence of trouble, whereby
preventive safety is improved. In addition, the diagnosis
result is fed back to related departments so that it is
reflected on quality management and vehicle development and
contributes to an improvement of system reliability.
