Abstract: The present invention creates a virtual sensor plane by arraying two one-dimensional light sensors (24) at right angles to one another wherein the shaft of a joystick (10) extends perpendicularly through the virtual sensor plane. With this configuration, the sensor plane can detect traditional joystick (10) rotation around a point along its axis as well as a herein-disclosed true rotation of the joystick (10) around the joystick axis itself. Between the light sources (26) and lenses which enable light detection and the optical, rather than mechanical or electromechanical, nature of the light sensors, wear surfaces in the joystick are minimized or eliminated everywhere except, where applicable, in the universal joint at the base of joystick configurations which include such a universal joint.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for synchronizing switching regulators in an electronic system so that switching smerferenee from the regulators may be kept from a given spectral region of interest. The system does this by selecting a master dock frequency such that each of the switching frequencies corresponding to each of the switching regulators is a harmonic of a fundamental frequency. Further, the master clock frequency is selected so that none of the switching regulators, each of which are driven by an harmonic of the fundamental frequency, generates switching interference in the spectral region of interest. Each of the switching regulators has a synchronization clock, which multiplies or divides the master clock frequency by an allocated harmonic factor. Each harmonic factor is selected to that the switching frequency is within the operating range of the particular switching regulator.

Abstract: An electric motor system (100) includes a motor brake control circuit (106) that uses current induced in the motor stator (118) from generated back EMF to keep the motor brake (116) energized and in its disengaged position, should electric power be lost to the motor system (100). When the motor (108) has slowed sufficiently that the induced current is no longer sufficient to keep the motor brake (116) energized, the motor brake (116) will move to its engaged position, and prevent further motor rotation. The motor rotational speed at which the motor brake (116) is no longer energized is sufficiently low that any potential degradation or other deleterious effects from motor brake engagement are minimized.

Abstract: A method/system for measuring cylinder pressures of an internal combustion engine includes a crank angle sensor utilized to generate pressure readings at known angular intervals. Additional time-based pressure measurements are taken in selected angular windows between a pair of the angle-based pressure readings. Because the angle-based pressure measurements and the time-based pressure measurements occur at known times, the pressure as a function of the crank angle for the time-based pressure measurements can be determined. The cylinder pressure measurements can be utilized to calculate combustion parameters used for closed-loop engine control of fuel supply or other engine inputs.
