发明名称 METHODS, APPARATUS AND ARTICLES OF MANUFACTURE TO REGULATE RELAY COIL SWITCHING
摘要 Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to regulate relay coil switching are disclosed. A disclosed example method of regulating switching times of a relay (212) having a pair of contacts to selectively and electrically couple an analog alternating current (AC) power source (L1) and a load (224) includes forming a digital pulse train (226) representative of an AC signal at the load (224), determining a first value corresponding to a representative pulse width of the digital pulse train (226), providing a first relay switching signal to the relay (212) at a first time relative to a zero crossing of the AC signal (L1), selecting a second time for providing a second relay switching signal to the relay (L1) based the first value and a second value representative of the width of a first pulse of the digital pulse train (226) associated with the first relay switching signal at the first time, and providing the second relay switching signal to the relay (212) at the second time.
