Patent number: 9142335Abstract: The present invention relates to cables made of twisted conductor pairs. More specifically, the present invention relates to twisted pair communication cables for high-speed data communications applications. A twisted pair including at least two conductors extends along a generally longitudinal axis, with an insulation surrounding each of the conductors. The conductors are twisted generally longitudinally along the axis. A cable includes at least two twisted pairs and a filler. At least two of the cables are positioned along generally parallel axes for at least a predefined distance. The cables are configured to efficiently and accurately propagate high-speed data signals by, among other functions, limiting at least a subset of the following: impedance deviations, signal attenuation, and alien crosstalk along the predefined distance.Type: GrantFiled: February 8, 2013Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Tyco Electronics Services GmbHInventors: Robert Kenny, Stuart James Reeves, Keith Ford, John W.

Patent number: 8890817Abstract: Centralized processing of touch information obtained by multiple touch sensing controllers connected to a touch sensing surface is provided. Each touch controller can obtain touch information of sense signals from different sense lines of the touch sensing surface and can store the touch information in a corresponding memory of the controller. The touch information of one or more of the touch sensing controllers can be transmitted as results data to a processor that processes all of the touch information. In some cases, prior to transfer of the results data, a determination of the validity of a sense channel can be made, and invalid channels can be excluded from the transfer.Type: GrantFiled: September 7, 2010Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Thomas James Wilson, Richard James Reeve

Patent number: 8861224Abstract: An electronic mobile device includes a base supporting an input panel. A cover pivotally connects to the base and is pivotable from a closed position to an open position and vice versa relative to the base. In the closed position the cover covers the input panel, and in the open position the cover is disposed away from the base. A base magnet is supported within the base and has a first magnetic axis. A cover magnet is supported within the cover so as to move with the cover relative to the base. The cover magnet has a second magnetic axis that tends to align with the first magnetic axis to thereby bias the cover towards at least one of the closed position and the open position.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2012Date of Patent: October 14, 2014Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Jason Tyler Griffin, Julia Allwright, Martin Riddiford, James Reeves
