Abstract:
A switching power capable of avoiding coupling effects is provided. The switching power comprises a driving loop. The driving loop comprises the substrate end and the gate end of a power Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET) and a controlling gate, and the controlling gate is connected to the gate end of the power MOSFET and the substrate end of the power MOSFET is connected to the controlling gate. The switching power provided by the present can avoid the coupling effect of the driving loop and the power stage loop at the common source pin, thereby reducing the switching power losses and improving the efficiency of the switching power.
Abstract:
A multi-mode driver amplifier with tunable load matching is disclosed. In an exemplary design, an apparatus includes a multi-mode driver amplifier and a tunable impedance matching circuit. The driver amplifier amplifies an input radio frequency (RF) signal and provides an amplified RF signal. The tunable impedance matching circuit matches an output impedance of the driver amplifier. The apparatus may include a main transmit path and a bypass transmit path. The bypass transmit path may include the driver amplifier and the tunable impedance matching circuit and no power amplifier. The main transmit path may include a second driver amplifier and a power amplifier. The main transmit path may be selected for transmit power levels higher than a threshold level, and the bypass transmit path may be selected for transmit power levels lower than the threshold level.
Abstract:
Method and system to utilize the set of navigation paths of web pages as the contextual information for subject relevant web page filtering with high accuracy are provided. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining all web pages in one or more web pages collections; collecting information of the links among the obtained web pages; extracting, based on the collected links, a set of navigation paths of each of the obtained web pages; and filtering the obtained web pages based on the extracted set of navigation paths to obtain desired web pages. In some embodiments, the extraction of the navigation paths is preferably performed on the navigation links of the web pages. Therefore, the method also comprises the process for deleting non-navigation links from all the links of the web pages. Compared with the prior art, the present invention can utilize the contextual information of the web pages for web page filtering in a more sufficient way, thereby improving the accuracy and objectivity of the web page filtering.

Abstract:
A vending machine capable of refilling used ink cartridges as well as dispensing filled ink cartridges is closed. The vending machine includes at least one cartridge receptacle for receiving an ink cartridge, a user interface, a display unit, a nozzle health check module, a printhead servicing module, an ink reservoir, an ink refilling unit, a compartment containing new ink cartridges, a compartment containing filled, second-hand ink cartridges, and a recycle compartment for receiving discarded ink cartridges. The user is presented by the display unit with the option of (a) refilling a used cartridge, (b) purchasing a filled cartridge, or (c) returning a used cartridge in exchange for a purchase rebate or a discount voucher. When the user selects the option of refilling, the vending machine executes a refilling subroutine which includes checking the nozzle health.
