An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to detect a pattern of an upsampled input submatrix, generate a transformed input submatrix by selecting four elements of the upsampled input submatrix, select a transformed weight submatrix based on the pattern, and convolve the transformed input submatrix and the transformed weight submatrix.
Abstract:
Embodiments introduce redundant optical channels to significantly extend the lifetime of parallel optical transceivers. A plurality of transmitters, N, transmit on a plurality of optical channels, where N is an integer number of optical channels greater than 1. One or more redundant channels, M, are also provided. N+M multiple input shift registers provide multiple paths for signals from each of the transmitters to connect to N+M laser diodes. In the event up to M of the N+M laser diodes fail, the multiple input shift registers connect the N transmitters to functioning ones of the N+M laser diodes thus extending the life of the device. A corresponding scheme is also described for the receiver side.

Abstract:
A power control manager includes a processor to compute available power from a power source and a comparator to compare the available power to an amount of power to concurrently operate a plurality of sub-systems of an electronic device at full or a predetermined power. The 5 processor generates one or more control signals in response to a decision signal output from the comparator. The control signals may indicate that a maximum power setting is to be set for a first sub-system and a reduced non-zero power setting is to be set for a second sub-system of the plurality of sub-systems. The sub-systems may be different sub-systems of a smartphone or another electronic device.
Abstract:
According to embodiments of the present invention, an optical receiver detects an optical signal, determines the signal strength, and is placed in a power save mode if the optical signal strength falls below a predetermined level. A microcontroller may instruct a transimpedance amplifier integrated circuit (TIA IC) or other circuitry in the receiver to turn off one or more of its components during power save mode. If the optical signal strength rises above the predetermined level, the microcontroller may instruct the TIA IC to return to normal mode.
Abstract:
Reverse bias leakage testing may be used to determine the health of a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). When VCSELs are integrated on a die with other electronic devices such testing may damage the other electronic devices or be prohibited by circuits on the die designed to protect the electronics from being reverse biased. Accordingly, reverse bias testing may be facilitated by providing a second ground pad, separate from the die ground pad, specific to the VCSEL.
