Abstract:
A system comprises a resource, such as an interconnection, for example, of the Network-on-Chip (NoC) type, having an overall bandwidth available for allocation to a set of initiators that compete for allocation of the overall bandwidth. The system includes a communication arbiter for allocating the overall bandwidth to the initiators according to respective values of bandwidth requested (RBW) by the initiators. A control device (50) is configured to detect the deviation between the value of bandwidth allocated to the initiators and the respective value of requested bandwidth and allocate the overall bandwidth to the initiators in a dynamic way minimizing the mean value of the deviation.

A method includes counting a first set of photons having a time-of-flight that falls within a first time range and being detected during a first time period, determining a second time range based on the first set of photons, the second time range being smaller than the first time range, counting a second set of photons having a time-of-flight that fall within the second time range and being detected during a second time period, and determining a third time range based on the second set of photons, the third time range being smaller than the second time range.
Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a voltage source device comprising: a voltage converter for generating a supply voltage at an output node of the voltage converter based on a feedback signal provided on a feedback line; at least one switch coupled between the output node of the voltage converter and an output terminal of the voltage source device; and at least one further switch configured to selectively couple the feedback line to: the output node of the voltage converter during a first regulation mode; and to the output terminal of the voltage source device during a second regulation mode.

Abstract:
A laser diode driver circuit includes a first pair of contacts and connectors coupled to an anode of the laser diode. An inductance of each of the first pair of contacts and connectors is the same. A second pair of contacts and connectors are coupled to a cathode of the laser diode. An inductance of each of the second pair of contacts and connectors is the same. The laser diode driver circuit also includes current driving circuitry.
Abstract:
A method for managing a dynamic range of an optical detection device illuminated by a modulated optical radiation, the method including: generating a detection signal from the modulated optical radiation; generating, based on the detection signal, a histogram including a plurality of histogram classes; comparing a chosen maximum value and a value of each histogram class of the plurality of histogram classes; and stopping a generation of the histogram in response to a determination that the value of any one of the plurality of histogram classes is equal to the maximum value.
Abstract:
An apparatus has a data store configured to store access activity information. The access activity information indicates which one or more of a plurality of different access parameter sets is active. The data store is also configured to store access defining information, which defines, at least for each active access parameter set, a number of channels, location information of said channels, and interleaving information associated with said channels.
