A battery balancing system includes an energy balancing circuit. Multiple battery cells are coupled to the energy balancing circuit. A health assessment circuit is coupled to the multiple battery cells and configured to sense a state of health and a charge of each of the multiple battery cells. The balancing circuit switches energy between the multiple battery cells as a function of the sensed state of health and state of charge of each of the multiple battery cells to balance charge there between.

Adaptive balancing for battery management

A sulfonated nanocellulose or sulfonated cellulose may be synthesized. A polyaniline emeraldine may be doped with the sulfonated nanocellulose or sulfonated cellulose to form a sulfonated nanocellulose-doped polyaniline or a sulfonated cellulose-doped polyaniline.

Chemiresistor humidity sensor and fabrication method thereof

A security system may include a normally open relay between an external network connection and at least one internal network connection, a network controller, and a microcontroller. The network controller may be configured to monitor for malicious activity on an external network accessible through the external network connection. The microcontroller may be configured to cause the normally open relay to temporarily close in response to the network controller failing to detect the malicious activity for a predetermined amount of time and cause the normally open relay to remain open and generate an alert in response to the network controller detecting the malicious activity.

A gas sensor includes a field effect transistor supported on an oxide layer of a substrate, the field effect transistor having a doped source (pdoped for T-FET and n+ doped for FET) and an n+ doped drain separated by an channel region (intrinsic for T-FET or slightly p-doped for FET), and a floating gate separated from the channel region by a gate oxide, a passivation layer covering the floating gate, and a sensing layer supported by the passivation layer, the sensing layer comprising nanofibers.

A relative humidity sensor is disclosed. The relative humidity sensor includes a first electrode and a second electrode disposed above a dielectric substrate. A humidity sensitive layer is disposed above at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode, where the humidity sensitive layer comprises a curable composition comprising cellulose acetate butyrate and a hydrophobic filler. In some embodiments, a dust protection layer is disposed above the humidity sensitive layer.

Relative humidity sensor and method

An illustrative humidity sensor may include a substrate having a source and a drain, wherein the drain is laterally spaced from the source. A gate stack is provided in the space between the source and the drain to form a transistor. The gate stack may include a gate insulator situated on the substrate to form a gate insulator/substrate interface. The gate stack may further include a barrier layer above the gate insulator. The barrier layer may be configured to act as a barrier to mobile charge, humidity and/or other contaminates, and may help prevent such contaminates from reaching the gate insulator/substrate interface. The gate stack may further include a humidity sensing layer above the barrier layer. The humidity sensing layer, when exposed to humidity, may modulate the conduction channel in the substrate under the gate insulator and between the source and the drain. In some cases, the humidity level may be determined by monitoring the current flowing between the source and drain.
