Abstract:
Systems and methods for a call over network (CON) with a visualized summary are provided. In some embodiments, after the call concludes, a visualized summary of the call can be generated. The summary includes any of the recording of the call, transcriptions, scenario information, speaker information and the duration each speaker was talking, etc. Scenario may be generated by comparing the call speaking pattern to known templates of call types. Additionally, participant features employed in the call may be summarized in chronological relation to the calls progression in a visual format.
Abstract:
A photoluminescent or electroluminescent system and method of making a non-luminescent nanostructured material into such a luminescent system is presented. The method of preparing the luminescent system, generally, comprises the steps of modifying the surface of a nanostructured material to create isolated regions to act as luminescent centers and to create a charge imbalance on the surface; applying more than one polar molecule to the charged surface of the nanostructured material; and orienting the polar molecules to compensate for the charge imbalance on the surface of the nanostructured material. The compensation of the surface charge imbalance by the polar molecules allows the isolated regions to exhibit luminescence.

In one general aspect, an apparatus can include a controller, and a power stage coupled to the controller and configured to be coupled to a power source. The power stage is configured to deliver an output voltage to a load module in response to the controller. The apparatus also includes a reference voltage circuit coupled to the controller and configured to be grounded to a first ground voltage different from a second ground voltage associated with the load module.
Abstract:
A suspension includes a flexure and a plurality of electrical traces formed on the flexure. Each electrical trace has a trace body and a bonding pad arranged for connecting with a slider, and the bonding pad is a free end before connecting with the slider and is capable of bending to the trace body flexibly, and the bonding pad includes a trace body layer and a solder layer formed on the trace body layer, thereby the bonding pads of the electrical traces connecting with the slider by reflowing the solder layer. The present invention uses no extra solder balls, so as to reduce the manufacturing cost and the corresponding apparatus cost. The invention also discloses a manufacturing method of a suspension, and a connecting method for a suspension and a slider.
Abstract:
An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) implements non-uniform conversion accuracy so as to allow for high conversion accuracy for a select narrower input range while also accommodating a wider overall input range and requiring fewer conversion bits compared to conventional ADCs. The ADC includes an ADC core that receives an input signal and outputs a first digital value having a first number of bits, the first digital value based on the input signal and an accuracy configuration of the ADC core. The ADC also includes an encoder to generate a second digital value have a second number of bits, greater than the first number of bits, based on the first digital value and the accuracy configuration of the ADC core. The ADC further includes an accuracy controller to adjust the accuracy configuration of the ADC core based on a relationship between the first digital value and at least one threshold.

Abstract:
First information is received at a first pulse width modulation (PWM) module responsive to a chip select signal being asserted at a chip select input of a communication bus of the first PWM module during a first time. The first information is latched at a control register of the first PWM module in response to a first logic transition of the chip select signal. A first PWM signal is provided at a first output of the first PWM module beginning a predetermined amount of time after the first logic transition of the chip select signal, the first PWM signal generated by the first PWM module based upon the first information.
Abstract:
An exemplary chip card holder used in a portable electronic device for holding a chip card is provided. The chip card holder includes a body member, a card receiving space disposed on the body member, an elastic piece and a releasing piece. The elastic piece is disposed at one end of the card receiving space and is configured for elastically resisting against the chip card to provide a pushing force to the chip card. The releasing piece is releasably disposed at the other end of the card receiving space opposite to the elastic piece and being configured to hold and release the chip card. The chip card locking device has simple structure and is easy to operate to lock or unlock the chip card.
Abstract:
Disclosed are example open channel detection techniques at a light emitting diode (LED) driver of an LED system. The LED driver does not enable its LED channels before normal operation so as to inhibit current flow through the LED channels during start-up. While the LED channels are disabled, the LED driver compares the voltages at the LED channel inputs with a predetermined voltage to determine whether an operational LED string of an associated LED panel is connected to the LED channel. In the event that an LED channel is determined to be an “open” channel, the LED driver further disables the LED channel for the following normal operational mode. Otherwise, if the LED channel is determined to be connected to an operational LED string, the LED driver enables the LED channel for the normal operational mode, during which the LED channel can be selectively activated for light output subject to display data for the LED panel.
