AUTOMOTIVE UNIVERSAL LATCH CONTROL

摘要

Latch control methods and systems are disclosed, including a latch (208) that receives power from a motor (206) associated with an H-bridge circuit (204). A sensor (210) can be provided for monitoring the latch, wherein the sensor obtains latch feedback data from the latch. A microcontroller (212) controls the latch based on the latch feedback data, by controlling an interaction of the H-bridge circuit and the motor with the latch. Additionally, a microprocessor processes instructions for controlling the interaction of the H-bridge circuit and the motor with the latch. Such instructions can be implemented as Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) control instructions.
