Abstract: Execution traces are collected from multiple execution instances that exhibit performance issues such as slow execution. Call stacks are extracted from the execution traces, and the call stacks are mined to identify frequently occurring function call patterns. The call patterns are then clustered, and used to identify groups of execution instances whose performance issues may be caused by common problematic program execution patterns.

Abstract: A pulse width modulation (PWM) frequency converter converts an input PWM signal to an output PWM signal having a different frequency while maintaining a substantially equal duty ratio. The PWM frequency converter samples the input PWM signal for a PWM cycle using a sampling clock. A filter module filters the resulting set of one or more PWM parameters to compensate for noise introduced by potential clock mismatch, clock jitter, ambient variations, and other non-deterministic issues, thereby generating filtered PWM parameters. The sampling employed by the filter module compares a difference between the one or more current PWM parameters and previous (or historical) PWM parameters from an earlier sampled PWM cycle to a predetermined change threshold in determining a filtered set of one or more PWM parameters. The filtered set of one or more PWM parameters then is used to generate one or more corresponding PWM cycles of the output signal.

Abstract: A power management technique in a light emitting diode (LED) system is disclosed. The LED system includes a plurality of LED driver connected in series, each LED driver configured to regulate the current flowing through a corresponding subset of a plurality of LED strings. Each LED driver determines the minimum tail voltage of the LED strings of the corresponding subset, compares the determined minimum tail voltage with an indicator of a minimum tail voltage of one or more other subsets provided from an upstream LED driver in the series, and then provides an indicator of the lower of the two tail voltages to the downstream LED driver. In this manner an indicator of the minimum tail voltage of the plurality of LED strings is cascaded through the series. A feedback controller monitors the minimum tail voltage represented by the cascaded indicator and accordingly adjusts an output voltage provided to the head ends of the plurality of LED strings.

Abstract: A pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generator generates a PWM signal with an adjustable PWM duty based on a programmable or otherwise adjustable value. In response to a change or update to this value, the PWM signal generator initiates a duty transition process that generates a series of groups of PWM cycles that gradually transition from the original duty to the new duty. Each group includes a corresponding set of a predetermined number of PWM cycles that is repeated one or more times over a predetermined duration for the group. Each set has a certain proportion of PWM cycles having the new duty to PWM cycles having the original duty, whereby the proportion increases for each successive group of the series. This gradual transition in the PWM signal from the original duty to the new duty effectively provides an effective higher duty resolution for the PWM signal generator during the duty transition.

Abstract: A voltage source provides an output voltage to drive a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) strings. A LED driver adjusts the level of the output voltage so as to maintain the lowest tail voltage of the LED strings at or near a predetermined threshold voltage so as provide sufficient headroom voltages for current regulators for the LED strings. The LED driver operates in an operational mode and a calibration mode, which can be implemented in parallel with, or part of, the operational mode. During the calibration mode, the LED driver determines, for each LED string, a code value representative of the level of the output voltage necessary to maintain the tail voltage of the corresponding LED string at or near the predetermined threshold voltage. In the operational mode, the code values from the calibration mode are used to control the voltage source to provide an appropriate level for the output voltage.

Abstract: Power management in a light emitting diode (LED) system having a plurality of LED strings is disclosed. A voltage source provides an output voltage to drive a plurality of LED strings. An LED driver implements a feedback mechanism to monitor the tail voltages of the active LED strings to identify the minimum tail voltage and adjust the output voltage of the voltage source based on the lowest tail voltage. A loop calibration module of the LED driver calibrates the feedback mechanism of the LED driver based on a relationship between a digital code value used to generate a particular output voltage and another digital code value generated based on the minimum tail voltage resulting from the particular output voltage.
