Abstract:
A high-speed data compared latch with auto-adjustment of offset, includes input pair transistors P, input pair transistors N, a compared latch module, an input control module, an output control module and a offset logic control module, the offset logic control module creates two control signals that regulate the number of input pair transistors P and input pair transistors N respectively according to reset signal RESET and the latched output of the compared latch module, and achieve self correcting of offset through regulating the number of the input pair transistors P and the input pair transistors N. The present invention is a feedback mechanism, automatically trimming the number of differential input pair to achieve the trimming differential pair operating point and the threshold voltage, eliminate the process variation, and latch on more precise control match the differential input pair transistors of the high-speed data compared latch in receiver accurately.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an Instant Messenger (IM) and a method for dispatching tasks by the IM. The method includes: presetting task information in a start-up program configuration table, and dispatching, by the IM, tasks in batches according to the task information in the start-up program configuration table. Preferably, the task information includes the execution delay information and priority information of the tasks. The IM includes a logging-on flow management module and a task dispatching management module. The logging-on flow management module is adapted to store the start-up program configuration table, which is configured with the task information. The task dispatching management module is adapted to dispatch the tasks in batches according to the task information in the start-up program configuration table. With embodiments of the invention, the start-up delay of the IM may be reduced.

A digital code-tracking loop includes the implementations of despreading early and late data samples by use of a pseudonoise sequence, an error signal output generated by the despreading, and adjustment for a plurality of on-time, early and late samples, a data rate of a control signal provided as a fractional proportion of a data rate of error signals.
Abstract:
A method implemented by a user equipment includes selecting a first estimate of a signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio, calculating a first amplitude and first noise variance, calculating a second amplitude and a second noise variance, calculating a second SNR, calculating a resolution value, adjusting the first SNR, and performing estimation iterations until the resolution value is equal to a predetermined value.
Abstract:
An electrically powered pump for a cooling system in a machine such as an electric drive track-type tractor includes a pump housing having a first volute and a second volute, each including a different cooling circuit segment. A drive assembly including an electric motor and a pump shaft is positioned within the pump housing, and a first impeller and a second impeller are mounted on the pump shaft at first and second axial locations on opposite sides of a rotor of the electric motor. The first impeller has a first impeller configuration, and defines a first tolerance sensitivity with the first volute, and a second impeller has a second, different impeller configuration and defines a second, lesser tolerance sensitivity with the second volute. The first impeller may include au open impeller positioned at a first clearance with the first volute, and the second impeller may include a closed impeller positioned at a second, greater clearance with the second volute.

Abstract:
A non-volatile single-event upset (SEU) tolerant latch is disclosed. The non-volatile SEU tolerant latch includes a first and second inverters connected to each other in a cross-coupled manner. The gates of transistors within the first inverter are connected to the drains of transistors within the second inverter via a first feedback resistor. Similarly, the gates of transistors within the second inverter are connected to the drains of transistors within the first inverter via a second feedback resistor. The non-volatile SEU tolerant latch also includes a pair of chalcogenide memory elements connected to the inverters for storing information.
