    Abstract: A modular light-emitting panel assembly has first and second light guides edge lit by respective light sources. Each light guide has a light input edge, opposed side edges, opposed major surfaces and a pattern of light extracting elements at at least one of the major surfaces. The light guides are juxtaposed with a side edge of the first light guide abutting a side edge of the second light guide at a seam and with the major surfaces nominally coplanar. Various embodiments of the panel assembly additionally include respective structures that reduce visibility of the seam when the light sources illuminate the panel assembly.

    Abstract: In a first clock frequency multiplier, multiple injection-locked oscillators (ILOs) having spectrally- staggered lock ranges are operated in parallel to effect a collective input frequency range substantially wider than that of a solitary ILO. After each input frequency change, the ILO output clocks may be evaluated according to one or more qualifying criteria to select one of the ILOs as the final clock source. In a second clock frequency multiplier, a flexible-injection-rate injection-locked oscillator locks to super-harmonic, sub-harmonic or at-frequency injection pulses, seamlessly transitioning between the different injection pulse rates to enable a broad input frequency range. The frequency multiplication factor effected by the first and/or second clock frequency multipliers in response to an input clock is determined on the fly and then compared with a programmed (desired) multiplication factor to select between different frequency-divided instances of the frequency-multiplied clock.

    Abstract: Bandwidth for information transfers between devices is dynamically changed to accommodate transitions between power modes employed in a system. The bandwidth is changed by selectively enabling and disabling individual control links and data links that carry the information. During a highest bandwidth mode for the system, all of the data and control links are enabled to provide maximum information throughout. During one or more lower bandwidth modes for the system, at least one data link and/or at least one control link is disabled to reduce the power consumption of the devices. At least one data link and at least one control link remain enabled during each low bandwidth mode. For these links, the same signaling rate is used for both bandwidth modes to reduce latency that would otherwise be caused by changing signaling rates. Also, calibration information is generated for disabled links so that these links may be quickly brought back into service.

    Abstract translation: 设备间信息传输的带宽会动态改变,以适应系统中采用的功率模式之间的转换。 通过选择性地启用和禁用携带信息的单独控制链路和数据链路来改变带宽。 在系统的最高带宽模式期间,所有的数据和控制链路都能够在整个过程中提供最大的信息。 在系统的一个或多个较低带宽模式期间,禁用至少一个数据链路和/或至少一个控制链路以降低设备的功耗。 在每个低带宽模式期间保持启用至少一个数据链路和至少一个控制链路。 对于这些链路,相同的信令速率用于两种带宽模式,以减少否则将由信令速率改变引起的延迟。 此外,还会为禁用的链接生成校准信息,以便这些链接可以快速重新投入使用。

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a technique for calibrating a retro-directive array. During the calibration process, the system measures a gain g 1 through a first pair of antennas in the retro-directive array. Next, the system measures a gain g 2 through a second pair of antennas in the retro-directive array. The system then simultaneously measures a combined gain G 1 , 2 through the first and second pairs of antennas in the retro-directive array. If G 1 , 2 is less than g 1 + g 2 by more than a threshold value, the system calibrates a phase relationship between the first and second pairs of antennas.

    Abstract: A light bulb includes a light guide, light source, and housing. The light guide is configured as an open-ended hollow body surrounding an internal volume and defining a longitudinal axis. The light guide has inner and outer major surfaces. The light source is configured to edge light the light guide. The housing is at one end of the light guide. In one embodiment, fins extend from the housing adjacent the outer major surface, each fin separated from the outer major surface by an air gap to allow air flow between the fin and outer major surface. In another embodiment, a heat sink is disposed in the internal volume and configured as a hollow body with a branched cross section. Each branch extends outward from a common center and defines an air flow channel that terminates in an orifice aligned with a respective through-slot of the light guide.

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments related to a clocked memory system which performs a calibration operation at a full-rate frequency to determine a full-rate calibration state that specifies a delay between a clock signal and a corresponding data signal in the clocked memory system. Next, the clocked memory system uses the full-rate calibration state to calculate a sub-rate calibration state, which is associated with a sub-rate frequency (e.g., 1/2, 1/4 or 1/8 of the full-rate frequency). The system then uses this sub-rate calibration state when the clocked memory system is operating at the sub-rate frequency. This calculation of the sub-rate state calibration states eliminates the need to perform an additional time-consuming calibration operation for each sub-rate.
