  • Patent number: 11909606
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for monitoring health of each switch of a plurality of switches on a network by selectively mirroring packets transmitted by each switch of the plurality of switches. In some embodiments, control circuitry generates a plurality of mirroring parameters, each mirroring parameter comprising an instruction to mirror a respective type of packet. The control circuitry transmits the plurality of mirroring parameters to each switch of the plurality of switches on the network, and receives, from a switch, a packet that was mirrored by the switch according to a mirroring parameter of the plurality of mirroring parameters. The control circuitry determines the respective type of the packet, executes an analysis of contents of the packet based on the respective type of the packet, and determines a health of the switch based on results of the analysis.

  • Patent number: 11709521
    Abstract: Synthetizing a hardware description language code into a netlist comprising loads and a multi-clock buffer (MBUF). The MBUF receives a global clocking signal and generates a first and a second related clocking signals. The loads are grouped into a first and a second groups receiving the first and the second clocking signals respectively. A first/second clock modifying leaf are placed between a common node and the first/group groups respectively, wherein the common node is positioned closer in proximity to the first/second groups in comparison to a clock source generating the global clocking signal. The first/second clock modifying leaves receive a least divided clocking signal from the MBUF and generate the first/second clocking signals respectively. The least divided clocking signal is routed from the MBUF to the first/second clock modifying leaves. The first/second clocking signals are routed from the first/second clock modifying leaves to the first/second group respectively.

  • Patent number: 11675260
    Abstract: A modeling projection lamp has a stand, a driving assembly, a first pattern frame, and a second pattern frame. The stand has a first swing bracket and a first gear. The first gear is mounted on the first swing bracket. The driving assembly has a rotating mechanism and a second swing bracket. The rotating mechanism can drive the second swing bracket so that the first swing bracket is swung about a first axis and the second swing bracket is swung about a second axis at the same time. The second pattern frame is movably connected to the second swing bracket. With the second swing bracket swinging with respect to the first swing bracket, the second pattern frame can moves or rotates with respect to the first pattern frame. Therefore, the image formed via the first pattern and the second pattern can be a dynamic image.
