Abstract:
A frequency-to-voltage (F2V) conversion module includes a pulse shaping module that generates a square wave signal based on an oscillator signal, an edge to pulse conversion module that generates a pulse train based on corresponding rising and falling edges of the square wave signal, and an integrator module that generates an output voltage based on the pulse train. The output voltage is based on a frequency of the oscillator signal.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of controlling an inductive fuel heater, comprising:\n generating a square wave signal based on an oscillating signal of an oscillator that controls an inductive fuel heater, wherein the square wave signal has rising and falling edges which are faster than rising and falling edges, respectively, of the oscillating signal, and the square wave signal has a pulse frequency which is the same as a pulse frequency of the oscillating signal; generating a pulse train based on the rising and falling edges of the square wave signal, comprising delaying the square wave signal to generate a delayed square wave signal, and providing the square wave signal and the delayed square wave signal to a logic gate, an output of the logic gate corresponding to the pulse train; and generating an output voltage based on the pulse train, wherein the output voltage is based on a frequency of the oscillator, generating the output voltage comprises integrating the pulse train to generate the output voltage; and controlling the inductive fuel heater based on the output voltage.
