  • Patent number: 11902327
    Abstract: Techniques are described herein that are capable of evaluating a result of enforcement of access control policies instead of enforcing the access control policies. For instance, a result of enforcement of an access control policy with regard to sign-in processes is evaluated instead of enforcing the access control policy with regard to the sign-in processes. The evaluation includes monitoring access requests that are received during the sign-in processes. Each access request requests access to a resource. The evaluation further includes comparing attributes of each access request against the access control policy that specifies criteria that are to be satisfied as a prerequisite to granting access to the resource to which access is requested by the respective access request. Metadata associated with the sign-in processes is generated instead of enforcing the access control policy with regard to the sign-in processes.

  • Publication number: 20240009377
    Abstract: A wound therapy system includes a dressing sealable over a wound, a conduit comprising a first inner diameter, coupled to the dressing, and fluidly communicable with the wound space, and a canister fluidly communicable with the conduit. A therapy unit is coupled to the canister and includes a pump, a sensor configured to measure a pressure, a valve controllable between an open position and a closed position, and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to control the pneumatic pump to remove air to establish a negative pressure, control the valve to repeatedly alternate between the open closed positions to allow a controlled rate of airflow through the valve, receive measurements of the pressure from the sensor, and determine a volume of the wound space based on the pressure measurements. A portion of the conduit comprises a second inner diameter that is less than the first inner diameter.

  • Publication number: 20240007104
    Abstract: A gate driver circuit which integrates a synchronous bootstrap circuit in an isolation well of an integrated circuit, such that the synchronous bootstrap capacitor connected to the synchronous bootstrap circuit (and to the corresponding switch node of a power converter) can float with the corresponding switch node. Due to this feature, the voltage on one synchronous bootstrapping capacitor can be used to charge the synchronous bootstrapping capacitor of another (higher level) synchronous bootstrap circuit in a separate isolation well connected to a different switch node. As a result, the supply voltages for the synchronous bootstrap circuits in different isolation wells can all be supplied from a single ground referenced supply Vdd.

  • Publication number: 20230417806
    Abstract: An integrated current sensing amplifier with offset cancellation implemented in GaN technology. The current sensing amplifier senses the current flowing through a low side power FET or a high side power FET of a half bridge circuit. The current sensing amplifier uses the off time of the power FET for storing the amplifier input offset voltage. The stored amplifier input offset voltage is then used to cancel the amplifier input offset voltage during the on time of the power FET, which is the interval that requires current sensing.

  • Publication number: 20230421139
    Abstract: A single-ended or differential level-shifting interface for GaN ICs that allows GaN ICs to be controlled with standard low-voltage CMOS level inputs. The logic level shift circuit is based on a resistive network is therefore insensitive to process and temperature variations, making it particularly well suited for implementation in a GaN IC. The resistive network for a single-ended input signal includes a first branch with a voltage divider connected to the input signal. The voltage divider of the first branch provides a level shifted and scaled input signal to the first input of a comparator at the optimal bias point of the comparator. The resistive network also includes a second voltage divider branch with hysteresis for providing a trip voltage to the second input to the comparator, also at the optimal bias point of the comparator. The comparator outputs complementary bipolar level shifted signals corresponding to the input signal.
