  • Publication number: 20230314513
    Abstract: An in-circuit emulator device includes a CPU that generates a first address signal by executing a program in synchronization with a first clock signal, a real-time capture circuit that generates a second address signal in synchronization with a second clock signal having a higher frequency than the first clock signal, and a selector circuit that supplies the second address signal to a storage device during a first period of one cycle of the first clock signal, and supplies the first address signal to the storage device during the remaining second period. The storage device reads data from a storage location of an address identified by the second address signal while the second address signal is supplied, and writes data from the CPU to a storage location of an address identified by the first address signal or reads data from said storage location while the first address signal is supplied.

  • Publication number: 20220301362
    Abstract: A battery diagnostic system includes a diagnostic server that diagnoses a battery mounted on a vehicle using battery information including usage information of the battery while the battery is mounted on the vehicle, and a diagnostic terminal that acquires the battery information from the vehicle, transmits the battery information to the diagnostic server, and receives a diagnoses result of the battery from the diagnostic server. When the diagnostic terminal transmits the battery information to the diagnostic server, the diagnostic terminal transmits information on whether a predetermined condition is satisfied together with the battery information to the diagnostic server. The diagnostic server accumulates the battery information when the predetermined condition is satisfied, and deletes the battery information after diagnosing the battery when the predetermined condition is not satisfied.

  • Patent number: 11355597
    Abstract: A transistor device includes a field plate that extends from a source runner layer and/or a source contact layer. The field plate can be coplanar with and/or below a gate runner layer. The gate runner layer is routed away from a region directly above the gate metal layer by a gate bridge, such that the field plate can extend directly above the gate metal layer without being interfered by the gate runner layer. Coplanar with the source runner layer or the source contact layer, the field plate is positioned close to the channel region, which helps reduce its parasitic capacitance. By vertically overlapping the metal gate layer and the field plate, the disclosed HEMT device may achieve significant size efficiency without additional routings.
