Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, systems, etc., directed to adapting user input in cloud gaming are disclosed herein. In an embodiment, a consumption rate of a game running on a game server may be obtained (e.g., by a client device). For example, the consumption rate may be associated with at least one input device (e.g., of the client device). For example, a consumption rate may be representative of a rate at which the game server may process user inputs of the (e.g., associated) input device. For example, the input rate (e.g., at which the user inputs may be transmitted to the game server) may be adapted by synchronizing the input rate to the consumption rate.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for providing an indication of the data transfer protocol that is operative during a data transfer operation between a data storage device capable of supporting a plurality of data transfer protocols and a host computer. A protocol controller of the data storage device is configured to determine a data transfer protocol based on a data cable used and to generate a selector signal used to provide the indication.

Abstract: A device may comprise data storage, a power manager and a bridge device that is coupled to the data storage and to the power manager, and configured to bridge between at least a first data protocol and at least a second data protocol. The bridge device may comprise a UART, a first clock, a second clock and bridge device firmware configured to cause the bridge device to selectively configure the UART for communication using the first clock or the second clock. The power manager may be configured to, when a command is to be issued to the data storage when the bridge device firmware has configured the UART for communication using the first clock, assert a signal that causes the bridge device firmware to stop configuring the UART for communication using the first clock and to configure the UART for communication using the second clock.

Abstract: A controller for a DC motor comprises an output switching element configured to couple to the DC motor; an input switching element coupled to the output switching element; a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal coupled to a control terminal of the input switching element and a supply voltage applied to the output switching element. A resistive-capacitive (RC) network may be coupled to a control terminal of the output switching element, with the RC network being configured to integrate the PWM signal into a DC voltage. A first resistive network may be configured to set a bias for the output switching element when the input switching element is turned off, and a second resistive network may be configured to set the bias for the output switching element when the input switching element is turned on, such that the controller is effective to provide zero-to-full supply voltage control to the DC motor.
