  • Patent number: 11314454
    Abstract: In a method for accessing a storage system, a client in the storage system identifies a logical address of a storage device, and queries a management server regarding a mapping between the storage device and a start address of a submission queue (SQ) in the memory of the storage node. The client then sends an access request including the logical address of the storage device directed to the start address of the SQ to a network interface card NIC of the storage node. The NIC receives and sends the access request to the start address of the SQ in the memory. The storage device obtains the access request from the start address of the SQ and executes the access request.

  • Publication number: 20210091725
    Abstract: In a limiting circuit that limits an output voltage of an operational amplifier, the signal quality of the output voltage is improved. The limiting circuit includes a short-circuit transistor and a gate voltage supply unit. In the limiting circuit, the short-circuit transistor short-circuits a path between an input terminal and an output terminal of the operational amplifier in a case where a voltage between the input terminal of the operational amplifier and the gate is higher than a predetermined threshold voltage. Furthermore, in the limiting circuit, the gate voltage supply unit supplies a voltage to the gate, the voltage depending on the threshold voltage and the output voltage of the output terminal.

  • Publication number: 20200358148
    Abstract: The present invention states a method of producing new cathode materials for lithium ion batteries by recycling metals from depleted lithium-ion batteries using green reagents, and a method of deriving green reagents from agricultural products. The green reagents are used to replace corrosive acids that are used in the recycling process of depleted lithium-ion batteries. Metal ions, such as nickel, cobalt, manganese, and lithium are recovered as precipitates from the depleted lithium-ion batteries which can further be sintered to produce lithium-containing transition metal oxides that can be used as new cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.
