Abstract: The present techniques provide systems and methods of controlling access to more than one open page in a memory component, such as a memory bank. Several components may request access to the memory banks. A controller can receive the requests and open or close the pages in the memory bank in response to the requests. In some embodiments, the controller assigns priority to some components requesting access, and assigns a specific page in a memory bank to the priority component. Further, additional available pages in the same memory bank may also be opened by other priority components, or by components with lower priorities. The controller may conserve power, or may increase the efficiency of processing transactions between components and the memory bank by closing pages after time outs, after transactions are complete, or in response to a number of requests received by masters.

Abstract translation: 本技术提供了控制对存储器组件（诸如存储体）中的多个打开页面的访问的系统和方法。 几个组件可以请求访问存储体。 控制器可以接收请求，并根据请求打开或关闭存储体中的页面。 在一些实施例中，控制器分配一些请求访问的组件的优先级，并将存储体中的特定页面分配给优先级组件。 此外，同一内存库中的其他可用页面也可能被其他优先级组件或具有较低优先级的组件打开。 控制器可以节省功率，或者可以通过在超时之后，事务完成之后或响应于主机接收的多个请求来关闭页面，从而提高组件与存储体之间的处理交易的效率。

Abstract: An external defibrillator used to treat a patient wirelessly communicates with an implantable medical device (IMD) implanted in the patient. In some embodiments, a telemetry head may be removably coupled to the external defibrillator to facilitate communication with the IMD. The defibrillator may receive information, such as patient, device, physiological, and treatment information, from the IMD. The defibrillator may use some or all of this information during treatment of the patient. For example, the defibrillator may prompt a user, or modify programmed user prompts based on the information. The defibrillator may deliver therapy based on the information. The information may include real-time values of physiological parameters monitored by the IMD, which may be displayed by the external defibrillator. The external defibrillator may control delivery of therapy by the IMD. The defibrillator may collect medical event information during treatment of the patient, and store the medical event information in the IMD.

Abstract: In a directed auto-refresh (DARF) mode, refresh commands are issued by a controller, and refresh row and bank addresses are maintained internally to a memory module. A bank address counter internal to the memory is initialized to a first predetermined value upon entering DARF mode. The memory refreshes the currently addressed bank in response to a DARF command, and increments the bank address counter in a predetermined sequence. The controller tracks the bank address, and may issue one or more memory access commands while a DARF operation is being performed, if the memory access and the refresh are directed to different banks. Upon exiting a self-refresh mode, the bank address counter assumes a second predetermined value. The second predetermined value may be fixed, or may be n+1, where n is the value of the bank address counter when self-refresh mode is initiated.

Abstract translation: 在定向自动刷新（DARF）模式下，控制器发出刷新命令，刷新行和存储区地址在内部维护到存储器模块。 进入DARF模式时，存储器内部的存储器地址计数器被初始化为第一预定值。 存储器响应于DARF命令刷新当前寻址的存储体，并以预定的顺序递增存储体地址计数器。 如果存储器访问和刷新被引导到不同的存储体，则控制器跟踪存储体地址，并且可以在执行DARF操作时发出一个或多个存储器访问命令。 在退出自刷新模式时，银行地址计数器采取第二预定值。 第二预定值可以是固定的，或者可以是n + 1，其中n是当启动自刷新模式时存储体地址计数器的值。

Abstract: For use in conjunction with a system for producing, at a transmitter location, time division multiplexed (TDM) frames having a plurality of channels of information signals and framing signals, communicating the frames from the transmitter location to a receiver location, and, at the receiver location, deframing the received frames to obtain frame timing signals and a bitstream of information signals which are coupled with a plurality of operating units. A technique for responding very quickly, upon loss of the TDM signal, to prevent misoperation of the operating units, including: at the transmitter, inserting a preselected pattern of bits in a timeslot of the information signals; at the receiver, detecting, in the deframed bit stream, the absence of the preselected pattern of bits, and producing a control signal in response; and producing override information signals that are coupled to the operating units when the control signal is present.

Abstract: A method for controlling pests and weeds on or around plants, especially crop plants. The method includes admixing 2-propenal or other related enal compounds to form an aqueous solution, and applying the aqueous solution to plants, plant seeds, weeds, or soil around the around the area in which the plants grow. The aqueous solution contains about 1 to about 1350 parts of the active compound per million parts of water, and is applied to the soil in amounts of from about 75 pounds to about 800 pounds of active compound per acre of soil. At lower application rates of from about 1 pound to about 100 pounds of the active compound per acre of soil, 2-propanol and related enal compounds have the beneficial effect of enhancing the growth of the plants. In addition, application of these enal compounds also helps in reducing transplant shock of tomato plants.
