Publication number: 20140235188Abstract: An RF asset tracking device for cargo containers that has an extended operational life, due to a power management system and multiple power sources. The device has a solar cell and high capacity supercapacitor as a principal power source and a rechargeable battery as an auxiliary power source. Control circuitries manage and regulate the usage of the primary and secondary sources. Together, these power sources provide sufficient power for the tracking device to operate for an extended period of time, thus increasing the period between needed maintenance and decreasing downtime and thus cost.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2014Publication date: August 21, 2014Applicant: PETARI USA, INC.Inventors: Brian Lee, Mrinmoy Chakraborty, Jamshed Dubash, Jahangir Nakra, Dadi Setiadi

Patent number: 8786977Abstract: Vibration of a transducer slider can be used during slider fly height calibration to detect contact of the transducer slider with a disc surface. Amplification of the vibration may cause the transducer slider to tap the disc surface rather than drag across the disc surface when detecting contact with the disc surface. Amplification may be achieved by applying an in-phase AC signal to the transducer slider at the same frequency as the vibration of the slider. Reduced contact between the slider and the disc surface reduces wear on and the possibility of damage to the transducer slider and/or the disc surface. Once the fly height of the transducer slider is calibrated, the AC signal may be shifted out-of-phase with the slider vibration to dampen the slider vibration.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2011Date of Patent: July 22, 2014Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: Dadi Setiadi, Stefan A. Weissner, David Gordon Qualey
