A fast and accurate temperature controller for a device heated by current through a resistive element, such as various air data probes, wherein the resistance of the element varies with temperature. The temperature controller samples the temperature by selecting the resistance value of the resistive element. Analog calculations are performed based on the instantaneous applied voltage and current returned through the resistive element. Current through the resistive element is controlled by comparing the resistance of the element to a resistance value selected in accordance with the temperature characteristics of the element. Insensitivity to voltage and frequency variations is provided with a highly reliable and uncomplicated circuit having a small number of components.

A method of managing a license for a software module of a vehicle having a plurality of operating states includes receiving, by a processor, license term data of the license. The license term data includes an expiration time limit of the license. The method also includes observing, by a sensor, a condition of the vehicle. Additionally, the method includes determining, by the processor, an operating state of the vehicle based on the condition observed by the sensor. Furthermore, the method includes determining, by the processor, whether to deny access to the software module according to the expiration time limit based on the determined operating state.
