摘要： System and methods for controlling power delivery to system components are disclosed. A controller is communicatively coupled to a point-of-load converter through a first communication path and a shared memory is communicatively coupled to the point-of-load converter through a second communication path. A third communication path communicatively couples the controller and the shared memory. Control data is communicated from the controller to the point-of-load converter through the first communication path and measurement data is written from the point-of-load converter to the shared memory through the second communication path. The controller is operable to read the measurement data from the shared memory through the third communication path.

摘要： A fuel tank assembly includes a securement structure that may be secured to a fuel tank. The securement structure may stabilize the lower regions of a draw tube and a return tube positioned within the fuel tank such that movement and vibration of the draw and return tubes is reduced during motion of the vehicle to which the fuel tank is secured.

摘要： A serviceable draw and return tube assembly for use in fuel tanks is disclosed. The assembly may include a draw tube and a return tube secured to a plate, wherein the plate may be removably secured to a flange, which is fixedly secured to a fuel tank. The process of removably securing the plate to the flange allows for use of different sizes and materials to be utilized in manufacture of the assembly, thereby saving installation time and manufacturing costs.

摘要： A time averaged dynamic phase shedding system includes a system to generate a first phase electrical pulse using a phase 1 pulse generator and generate a second phase electrical pulse using a phase 2 pulse generator. The electrical current of the first phase electrical pulse and the electrical current of the second phase electrical pulse are sensed. The electrical pulses are combined into an output signal where a voltage level of the output signal is sensed. The time averaged dynamic phase shedding system turns off the phase 2 pulse generator in response to an average output current being below a current threshold and turns on the phase 2 pulse generator in response to the output signal having a change in output voltage with respect to the change in time (dv/dt) outside of a dv/dt threshold.

摘要： The present invention provides a configuration jumper that allows the main system board of an information handling system to be configured for a plurality of population options, including on-board PCI-E integrated circuits and PCI-E integrated circuits on expansion circuit boards that are connected to the main system board by an expansion slot connector. In one embodiment of the invention, the main system board comprises a first conductor and a second conductor that is selected from a plurality of second conductors that correspond to different circuit population options. The configuration jumper is operable to connect the first connector to the selected second conductor and to provide an appropriate capacitance to ensure that the signal path defined by the first conductor, the second conductor and the internal conductor of the jumper provide a combined AC coupling capacitance that complies with the AC coupling capacitor requirements of the PCI-E protocol. In alternative embodiments of the invention the four embodiments of the configuration jumpers discussed above are used to connect first pairs of differential signal conductors to second pairs of differential signal conductors. In these embodiments, the configuration jumpers comprise capacitance compensation and impedance matching to provide a capacitance-compensated, impedance-matched passthrough for high-speed differential signals used to transmit data between a PCI-E root complex and a PCI-E integrated circuit.

摘要： A system and method is disclosed for identifying the storage drives of a computer network. An identifier associated with an element of the storage network is stored in nonvolatile memory and later retrieved. The identifier associates the elements of the storage network, allowing the storage drives of the storage enclosure to be associated with the storage enclosure itself.
