Temperature control system for transmitter chip

摘要

A temperature control system for a transmitter chip in a consist is disclosed. The temperature control system may include a heater configured to provide heat to the transmitter chip, and a sensor configured to detect a consist condition and generate a signal indicative of the detected consist condition. The temperature control system may also include a controller in communication with the heater and the sensor. The controller may be configured to receive the signal indicative of the detected consist condition, compare the detected consist condition with a predetermined consist condition, and selectively control the heater to provide heat to the transmitter chip based on the comparison.

1. A temperature control system for a transmitter chip in a consist, the temperature control system comprising:
a heater configured to provide heat to the transmitter chip; at least one sensor configured to detect a temperature of the transmitter chip and generate a signal indicative of the detected temperature; and a controller in communication with the heater and the sensor, the controller configured to:
receive the signal indicative of the detected temperature;compare the detected temperature with at least one predetermined temperature;selectively control the heater to provide heat to the transmitter chip based on the comparison, wherein selectively controlling the heater includes:
turning the heater on when the temperature of the transmitter chip falls below a first threshold temperature, and turning the heater off when the temperature of the transmitter chip rises above the first threshold temperature, andselectively increasing an amount of heat emitted from the heater when the temperature of the transmitter chip falls below a second threshold temperature.
