A vehicle electric drive includes a controller programmed to operate a power converter to boost voltage from a battery for a DC bus and to limit voltage output from the power converter to a predefined maximum voltage value that varies with temperature of coolant used to cool the power converter.

A solid state circuit breaker apparatus includes a solid state switch, a current sensor, and a control circuit. The control circuit is programmed to operate the solid state switch by, in response to receipt of a signal from the current sensor indicating that an overcurrent condition exists: (i) using pulse width modulation to generate a set of control pulses; and (ii) using the control pulses to trigger the solid state switch to open and close in a pattern that corresponds to the control pulses, and thus limit an amount of let-through current that the solid state switch may pass to a load. The amount of let-through current that the solid state switch may pass to the load may be, for example, a threshold level above which the overcurrent condition will exist.

A system for monitoring the quality of voltage supplied by a power supply includes a voltage variation detection module and a controller. The voltage variation detection module has one or more level detection circuits that each receive a signal indicating the supplied voltage, thereby producing an amplitude signal representing a temporal variation in the voltage during a capture interval. The controller determines the capture interval, provides a capture control signal that causes the level detection circuit(s) to receive the voltage during the capture interval, receives the respective amplitude signal(s) from each of the level detection circuit(s), and produces one or more output signals, each representing the amplitude signal(s) and the associated capture interval, thereby providing an indication of the voltage quality. A method of using the system is also disclosed.

Moreover, the power monitoring circuit includes an integrator that generates an integrator voltage by integrating one or more regulator currents. The power monitoring circuit additionally includes a comparator for comparing the output of the divider circuit and the output of the integrator. The comparator of the power monitoring circuit generates an output signal in response to the integrator voltage being larger than the reference voltage.

Preventing RF signal distortion and signal error producing memory events in a Radio Frequency (RF) power amplifier (RFPA). An element, disposed prior to the Radio Frequency (RF) power amplifier (RFPA) in a signal path of a RF signal input to the RFPA, may enforce a maximum allowable amplitude in a high PAPR instantaneous high peak of the RF signal. An element may also increase or supplement a bias of the Radio Frequency (RF) power amplifier (RFPA) when a high PAPR instantaneous high peak is detected in the RF signal prior to receipt by the RFPA. Additionally, a first element operable detects when an instantaneous output voltage of the Radio Frequency (RF) power amplifier (RFPA) is below a predetermined voltage, and in response, a second element supplies additional current to prevent the output voltage of the RFPA from falling below a predetermined threshold voltage.
