Vehicle Center Satellite Sfz

Vehicle Center Satellite SFZ





The vehicle center satellite controls and monitors the trigger circuit for the safety battery terminal.
The vehicle center satellite is connected to the SGM by the byteflight. The power supply of the satellites is also from the SGM and it is buffered by a storage capacitor. In sleep mode of the byteflight, the power supply of the satellite is deactivated by the SGM.
The satellite has an acceleration sensor for longitudinal acceleration and one for lateral acceleration. The sensor provides a voltage as measured variable. This voltage is a measure for the positive and negative car acceleration and it is evaluated in the satellite.
The sensors continuously provide the values determined. The measured values are transferred by the byteflight to the SGM and all the satellites.
Triggering and monitoring of the trigger circuits are similar to the operation of the B-pillar satellites.
