Patent number: 11962233Abstract: An isolated gate driver has a first portion in a first voltage domain and a second portion in a second voltage domain. The first and second portions are coupled by an isolation communication channel. The isolated gate driver transmits across the isolation communication channel a serial word containing first drive strength information and simultaneously transmits gate information with the serial word across the isolation communication channel. The gate information indicates a state of a gate signal for a transistor coupled to the second portion of the isolated gate driver. A demodulator circuit demodulates a signal containing the gate information and the drive strength information transmitted across the isolation communication channel in the serial word. A gate signal output circuit coupled to the demodulator circuit supplies the gate signal based on the gate information with a drive strength of the gate signal being based on the drive strength information.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2023Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Skyworks Solutions, Inc.Inventors: Michael Robert May, Fernando Naim Lavalle Aviles, Carlos Jesus Briseno-Vidrios, Patrick Johannus De Bakker, Gabor Marek, Charles Guo Lin, Peter Onody, Tamas Marozsak, Andras V.

Patent number: 11947936Abstract: Disclosed are examples related to building a customized data collection widget. Building of the customized data collection widget includes receiving a selection of several universal modules for inclusion in the widget. Each universal module of the selected several universal modules may include programming code that causes rendering of user-fillable data fields on a display, and a summary page including data requirements of the respective universal module. Based on the data requirements in a summary page of each respective universal module of the selected several universal modules, the selected several universal modules retrieved from a module repository may be combined in a customized data collection container stored in a composite repository. The selected customized data collection container may be combined with selected other data collection containers to form a uniquely identifiable, customized data collection widget.

Publication number: 20240068360Abstract: Wellhead system, assembly and method monitors landing or retrieving of wellhead component at pre-determined landed position in main bore of wellhead member of wellhead. System includes running tool, instrument spool and sensor assembly. Running tool couples to wellhead component, lands or retrieves wellhead component within main bore of wellhead member, decouples from wellhead component, and has passive triggering device disposed in or on running tool. Instrument spool is pressure-containing, connects within wellhead at location above landed position of wellhead component, forms bore to align with main bore of wellhead, provides clearance for the wellhead component and running tool to be run therethrough, and has vertical height dimension such that, in pre-determined landed position, passive triggering device is located in bore of instrument spool.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 21, 2021Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: STREAM-FLO INDUSTRIES LTD.Inventors: Keith David FARQUHARSON, Kevin Andrew ELGERT, Tianle GUO, Hossam GHARIB, Charles Lorin GORDON

Patent number: 10699995Abstract: An integrated circuit isolation product includes a first integrated circuit die. The first integrated circuit die includes a first terminal and a second terminal adjacent to the first terminal. The first terminal and the second terminal are configured as a differential pair of terminals configured to communicate a differential signal across an isolation barrier. The first integrated circuit die includes at least one additional terminal adjacent to the differential pair of terminals. The at least one additional terminal is disposed symmetrically with respect to the differential pair of terminals. The first terminal may have a first parasitic capacitance and the second terminal may have a second parasitic capacitance. The first parasitic capacitance may be substantially the same as the second parasitic capacitance. The at least one additional terminal may be disposed symmetrically with respect to a line of symmetry for the differential pair of terminals.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Silicon Laboratories Inc.Inventors: Michael R.

Patent number: 8552797Abstract: In an RC calibration circuit, a single reference current is used to generate voltages across both a resistive and capacitive element. The component value of one of the resistive and capacitive element is successively altered until the voltages are substantially equal. Additionally, parasitic capacitances in the circuit are precharged to the resistive element voltage prior to the comparison. The RC calibration circuit eliminates the errors due to current matching and parasitic capacitances in prior art calibration circuits. The circuit includes a comparator and a digital control circuit (DCW) including a successive approximation register (SAR) holding the value of the digital control word used to control the component value of the tunable resistive or capacitive element. The SAR alters the DCW in an iterative, bit-by-bit binary searching pattern in response to the comparator output.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2011Date of Patent: October 8, 2013Assignee: ST-Ericsson SAInventor: Charles Guo Lin

Patent number: 6726113Abstract: A temperature control system utilizes detected occupancy and activity levels to automatically condition a response of an HVAC system to a difference between a setpoint temperature and an actual temperature within a zone. The illustrated example includes an infrared sensor that provides at least one signal indicating the activity and occupancy levels in the zone. A neural network processes the sensor signal to provide an indication of the occupancy and activity levels to a controller. The controller automatically adjusts at least one control parameter of the HVAC system to compensate for changes in the occupancy or activity levels that would affect the temperature comfort setting in the zone.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2002Date of Patent: April 27, 2004Assignee: Carrier CorporationInventor: Charles Guo
