ABSTRACT:
An apparatus used in a motor vehicle that provides load prioritization, load shedding, start sequencing and support of ultra or super capacitors when coupled to the motor vehicle's electrical power source and distribution network. The apparatus includes circuit Breakers, Solid State Relays, Controller Area Network (CAN) physical, transport and logical interface which enables the apparatus to connect or interface with power sources and to the vehicle's multiplex bus. The apparatus also includes decision, threshold detection and operational awareness logical software functions that enable it to prioritize power between the vehicles electrical components and interrogative/processing software functions that enable the apparatus to diagnosis abnormalities and communication status information to the vehicle operator. Lastly, the apparatus includes DC converters, temperature compensation circuitry, solid state relays, logic drivers and software functions that allow load shedding and temperature compensation to maintain efficient operation of the power source.
