Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide a circuit that includes a switch control circuit and a timing control circuit. The switch control circuit is configured to enable/disable a pulse width modulation (PWM) switch control to a regulator to transfer power to a load. The timing control circuit is configured to enable an analog to digital converter (ADC) to convert an analog signal to a digital stream when the PWM switch control is disabled in order to reduce noise in the digital stream due to switching activities in the regulator.

Abstract: An optical fiber adapter security, an optical fiber connector security, and a removal tool for use therewith are introduced. The removal tool includes a first body and two second resilient arms. The first body has a first coupling unit. The first coupling unit matches the optical fiber connector security. The second resilient arms are connected to the first body and connected to second coupling units, respectively. The second resilient arms match the optical fiber connector security. The second resilient arms and the second coupling units together match the optical fiber adapter security. The optical fiber adapter security prevents improper use of the optical fiber adapter. The optical fiber connector security prevents inappropriate removal of the optical fiber connector set. Protection provided by the optical fiber adapter security and the optical fiber connector security can be disabled by the same removal tool.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for automated performance verification for integrated circuit design is described herein. The method includes test preparation and automated verification stages. The test preparation stage generates design feature-specific performance tests to meet expected performance goals under certain workloads using optimization approaches and for different design configurations. The automated verification stage is implemented by integrating functional, automated modules into a verification infrastructure. These modules include register transfer level (RTL) simulation, performance evaluation and performance publish modules. The RTL simulation module schedules performance testing jobs, runs a series of performance tests on simulation logic simultaneously and generates performance counters for each functional unit.

Abstract: A protection module includes a protective cover having a first main body and an elastic arm, and a cover removing tool having a second main body, at least one elastic engaging pin and a release pin. The first main body has at least one engaging slot and a retaining slot; the elastic arm has a free front end with at least one beveled slot. The release pin is longer than the elastic engaging pin and has a thickness larger than a height of two raised portions in a socket of the data transmission connector, and has an acute-angled beveled free end. The elastic engaging pin has a cross-sectional shape corresponding to the engaging slot and has a free end with a retaining block. The protective cover is plugged into the data transmission connector for protecting the same against damages caused by maliciously applied force or improper use of it.

Abstract: An easily installable network wiring device includes a sliding cable hub body and a fixed frame. The sliding cable hub body includes a front panel and the sliding cable hub body is installed into the fixed frame through an opening of the fixed frame, and slid horizontally along an edge of the opening, such that two first slide latching portions of the front panel and two corresponding first notches on the opening are disposed alternately with one another, and a positioning portion and a second notch are provided for latching the sliding cable hub body with the fixed frame. Therefore, the sliding cable hub body can be installed onto the fixed frame easily, and achieve the effects of lowering the level of difficulty of the construction, enhancing the stability of the installation, and saving the time required for the construction.
