Abstract:
A device to detect engine oil level and temperature. The device comprises: a thermistor; an unregulated, or voltage-only regulated, power supply configured to provide a non-continuous high current to the thermistor for a predetermined time in order to induce self-heating of the thermistor. An ADC (“Analog-Digital Converter”) configured to read a voltage across the thermistor before and after the heating of the thermistor. A processor is configured to calculate a change in temperature of the thermistor on the basis of a change in voltage measured by the ADC, and, thereby, deduce an engine oil level and temperature.

Claim (Index 20):
The engine oil control system of  claim 15 , wherein the controller is further configured to store a reference voltage to regulate the power supply.
