A battery type detection approach is disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of detecting a battery type can include: receiving a signal from a battery module in a portable computing device; determining if the signal is in a first state for at least a first predetermined time before transitioning to a second state; determining if the signal transitions from the second state to the first state after a second predetermined time, and identifying the battery type in response thereto; and asserting an indication of the battery type when a third predetermined time period after the transition from the second state to the first state has occurred.

A multi-drop bus system and a method for operating such a system. The system includes a multi-drop bus having at least one bus line, each bus line being made up of a multiple of line segments. Each of the line segments terminates at a drop point and each drop point is coupled to a load impedance. The characteristic impedance of a line segment is matched to the equivalent impedance presented by the load impedance in combination with the characteristic impedance of a following segment, or is matched to the load impedance if there is no following segment.

A modular power converter including a first housing enclosing a converter circuit, and a selectively detachable second housing enclosing a retracting power cable. In a first orientation, the detachable second housing is secured to the first housing to form a unitary housing. In a second orientation, the second housing is detached from the first housing such that a first end of the extended power cable may tether to the first housing output a selectable distance therefrom. The cable also has a second end extendable from the second housing a predetermined distance. This modular power converter forms a single compact device when the power cable is not extended from the second housing.

In one embodiment of the present invention, a method includes verifying an initiating logical processor of a system; validating a trusted agent with the initiating logical processor if the initiating logical processor is verified; and launching the trusted agent on a plurality of processors of the system if the trusted agent is validated. After execution of such a trusted agent, a secure kernel may then be launched, in certain embodiments. The system may be a multiprocessor server system having a partially or fully connected topology with arbitrary point-to-point interconnects, for example.

A dual function actuator for a flush valve. The actuator contains a sensor for controlling a motor, which in response to a stimulus will move a plunger which actuates the flush valve. The actuator is also configured to allow for manual actuation of the flush valve by tilting a distal portion of the actuator in relation to the remaining portion of the actuator and flush valve, which moves the plunger actuating the flush valve.

A circuit for balancing delays through true and complement phases of complementary drivers includes: a first driver; a second driver; a first delay device coupled to an input of the first driver and having an input coupled to an input signal node; a second delay device coupled to an input of the second driver and having an input coupled to the input signal node through a first inverter, wherein the first and second delay devices are clocked such that an input signal reaches the first driver simultaneously with an inverted input signal reaching the second driver.
摘要:
A handle assembly for providing dual flush functionality to a flush valve. The handle assembly comprising a handle and a plunger engagable with each other. The plunger axially slidable in a bush disposed between the handle and the flush valve. The bushing having a passage for receiving the plunger. The plunger having a first and a second axis along which the plunger may travel through the passage. Movement of the handle moves the plunger from first axis to the second axis wherein actuation of the flush valve by the plunger along the first axis results in a different flush volume than actuation along the second axis.
