Abstract:
A system for allowing a content addressable memory (CAM) to operate with first and second power voltage levels including: a first input voltage for providing a first bias to the content addressable memory; a second input voltage for providing a second bias to the content addressable memory; and a selection device coupled to the first input voltage and the second input voltage for decoupling the first input voltage from the content addressable memory and coupling the second input voltage to the content addressable memory in response to coupling the second power voltage level to the content addressable memory. In a specific embodiment the system includes: a first power on reset coupled to the content addressable memory for initializing the content addressable memory when the first power voltage level is initially coupled to the content addressable memory; and a second power on reset coupled to the content addressable memory for initializing the content addressable memory when the second power voltage level is initially coupled to the content addressable memory. The system allows a CAM to operate at a power voltage level of 2.6 to 3.6 volts to reduce power dissipation and at a higher voltage during programming of an electrically programmable memory. The system provides multiple resets to a CAM for proper operation with multiple power supply levels. The system also provides a CAM that allows access to redundant addresses of an electrically programmable read only memory (EPROM) and that allows programming of the EPROM with traditional programming equipment.
Abstract:
An apparatus for storing data for read and write access receiving reset control signals, comprising a plurality of storage blocks, each block including an array of memory units for storing a unit of data is provided that is reset along storage block boundaries. A reset control means, coupled to receive the reset control signals which identify at least one of the storage blocks, is included for generating block reset signals. A means, coupled to the memory units in each storage block and to receive the block reset signals, for resetting the identified block of memory to 0. .

In one aspect, the disclosed technology manages and serves electronic advertisements for affiliated Web page publishers and advertisers. A computer-implemented method in accordance with the disclosed technology receives a request for an electronic advertisement for a Web page, wherein the Web page is associated with a Web page publisher, accesses one or more keywords appearing in the Web page, identifies one or more relevant electronic advertisements related to the keyword(s), wherein the relevant electronic advertisement(s) are associated with an advertiser affiliated with the Web page publisher, and communicates one or more the relevant electronic advertisements to the Web page for display. The disclosed technology also includes a computer executing software, wherein the executed software causes the computer to perform the steps above.
Abstract:
An airbag includes a bag body and a buffering pad. The bag body includes a cushioning surface and an opposite back surface, which together define an air chamber between them. The cushioning surface and the back surface are partially sawed and clinched in certain pattern. The air chamber of the bag body is provided with an air inlet. The buffering pad is partially connected to the periphery of the cushioning surface side of the bag body. The size of the buffering pad is smaller than that of the cushioning surface. While the airbag is inflated, the bag body is deployed at a limited thickness due to the clinched sawing and also pulled by the smaller sized buffering pad into an arch formed air shield. At the same time a buffering space is formed between the buffering pad and the cushioning surface.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a power isolation and backup system. When a power fail condition is detected, temporary storage is flushed to an SDRAM. After the flush, interfaces are halted, and power is removed from most of the chip except the SDRAM subsystem. The SDRAM subsystem copies data from an SDRAM to a flash memory. On the way, the data may be encrypted, and/or a data integrity signature calculated. To restore data, the SDRAM subsystem copies data from the flash memory to the SDRAM. On the way, the data being restored may be decrypted, and/or a data integrity signature checked.

Abstract:
A retailer computer system facilitates the purchase of products that are determined to be useful in the performance of a task by presenting to a consumer a first user interface by which the consumer may select a task from a repository of tasks, each task stored in the repository of tasks having documented instructions, such as a recipe, for performing the task, by presenting in a web page the documented instructions of the selected task, by using one or more keywords within the documented instructions of the selected task to select at least one product from an electronic product catalog, the selected at least one product being one or more of a part, such as a recipe ingredient, and a tool, such as an appliance, usable in performing the task, and by presenting to the consumer a second user interface for allowing the consumer to purchase via use of an online retail channel the selected at least one product.
Abstract:
A technique for classifying traffic at a network node includes programming multiple on-chip memory arrays with identical search entries, receiving multiple packets, and distributing classification searches related to the packets among the multiple on-chip memory arrays. In an embodiment, the on-chip memory arrays are content-addressable memory (CAM) arrays. In another embodiment, the distributing of classification searches related to the packets is performed in an alternating fashion with respect to a fixed order.
