摘要:
A rotary pawl latch has a lock bar that engages with the pawl when the pawl is latched and that moves toward the center of the pawl to release the pawl for unlatching. This lock bar never completely becomes disengaged from the envelope of the pawl. There are cutouts in the pawl which allow the pawl to rotate as the lock bar is actuated.

According to some embodiments, a circuit includes a delay stage of a ring oscillator. The delay stage may include a first differential pair, a second differential pair, and a third differential pair. The first differential pair may be coupled to a first current-steering circuit, receive a differential input signal, and output a first differential signal. The second differential pair may receive the differential input signal and output a second differential signal, and the third differential pair may be coupled to a second current-steering circuit, receive the second differential signal from the second differential pair, and output the first differential signal. An amount of delay between the differential input signal and the first differential signal is based on relative amounts of current steered by the first current-steering circuit and the second current-steering circuit.

A resonance suppression circuit is provided to suppress resonance on a power grid of a chip or die. The resonance suppression circuit may include a band-pass filter portion, a comparator portion, an amplification portion and a current dissipation portion. The band-pass filter portion may include an inverter coupled between two signal lines of the power grid. The comparator portion may sense voltage fluctuations at approximately the resonance frequency and trigger the current dissipation portion to turn ON and thereby change the frequency spectrum of the load current on the power grid to suppress the power grid resonance.

A light-emitting device and optical communication system based on the light-emitting device is disclosed. The light-emitting device is formed in a float-zone substrate. The light-emitting device includes on the substrate lower surface a reflective layer and on the upper surface spaced apart doped regions. The portion of the upper surface between the doped regions is textured and optionally covered with an antireflection coating to enhance light emission. The light-emitting device can operate as a laser or as a light-emitting diode, depending on the reflectivities of the antireflection coating and the reflective layer.

A laser driver for high speed interconnections may convert a digital signal to a current train of a bias mode to represent logical zero and of a modulation mode to represent logical one. An optical signal thus produced may include an optical offset. An optical receiver may include a photo-detector to receive the optical signal and generate a current signal, which includes a corresponding current offset. A first amplifier stage converts the current signal to a voltage signal and a second amplifier stage generates a digital output from the voltage signal. One or more low-pass filters may be used to filter the digital output and generate a filtered offset signal for a differential amplifier to generate an offset cancellation signal. The offset cancellation signal may be provided to offset cancellation circuitry to remove the current offset from the current signal generated by the photo-detector.

Methods and compositions which can be used to increase the strength and/or probability of forming a binding complex comprising a target molecule and a substrate are disclosed. In one aspect, linking molecules are disclosed which can be used to increase the number of intra-complex binding interactions. Covalent bonds can be introduced to further increase the strength of these binding interactions. Inter-complex cross-linking can be utilized in connection with these methods to further strengthen and stabilize the disclosed binding complexes.

A reconfigurable tree apparatus with a bypass mode and a method of using the reconfigurable tree apparatus are disclosed. The reconfigurable tree apparatus uses a short-circuit register to selectively designate participating agents for such operations as barriers, multicast, and reductions. The reconfigurable tree apparatus enables an agent to initiate a barrier, multicast, or reduction operation, leaving software to determine the participating agents for each operation. Although the reconfigurable tree apparatus is implemented using a small number of wires, multiple in-flight barrier, multicast, and reduction operations can take place. The method and apparatus have low complexity, easy reconfigurability, and provide the energy savings necessary for future exa-scale machines.
摘要:
A digital signature collection and authentication system includes an ink pen having an ultrasonic transmitter that transmits ultrasonic energy to a plurality of ultrasonic receivers. A computer triangulates the location of the pen versus time to generate the signature shape, and to generate velocity and acceleration data. The pen also includes a pressure sensitive tip to record pressure applied to the pen tip. The pen also includes a higher frequency burst transmitter useful to generate a time reference, and to transmit the pressure information. The computer packetizes the shape, velocity, acceleration, and pressure data with a time stamp and an IP address or phone number, encrypts the packet and sends it to a host computer for authentication. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
