Abstract: Numerous embodiments of an improved charge pump design are disclosed for generating the high voltages necessary to perform erase and program operations in non-volatile flash memory devices. In these embodiments, each boost stage in the charge pump is modified to overcome a deficiency in prior art charge pumps whereby voltage actually would decrease in the final boost stage. These modifications include the addition of one or more of a clock doubling circuit, a local self-precharge circuit, a feed-forward precharge circuit, a feed-backward precharge circuit, and a hybrid circuit comprising NMOS and PMOS transistors and diodes.

Abstract: Numerous embodiments are disclosed for accessing redundant non-volatile memory cells in place of one or more rows or columns containing one or more faulty non-volatile memory cells during a program, erase, read, or neural read operation in an analog neural memory system used in a deep learning artificial neural network.

The toothbrush also has a neck portion being coupled to the head portion at a neck portion distal end. The toothbrush also has a shoulder portion being coupled to the neck portion at a shoulder portion distal end and a neck portion proximal end, and the shoulder portion being curved toward the ventral direction. The toothbrush also has a base portion located at the proximal end, the base portion being coupled to the shoulder portion at a base portion distal end and a shoulder portion proximal end, the base portion being curved toward the ventral direction.

Abstract: Numerous embodiments of decoders for use with a vector-by-matrix multiplication (VMM) array in an artificial neural network are disclosed. The decoders include bit line decoders, word line decoders, control gate decoders, source line decoders, and erase gate decoders. In certain embodiments, a high voltage version and a low voltage version of a decoder is used.

Abstract: A diffuser for a liquid including a body including an opening for receiving the liquid in a container. An ultrasonic vaporizer is configured to vaporize the liquid received from the container into a vapor that is emitted from the body. A channel extends from the opening to the ultrasonic vaporizer and is configured to convey the liquid received from the container to the ultrasonic vaporizer with a gravity feed. The channel does not include any absorbent material. A power port is coupled to the body and configured to provide power to the ultrasonic vaporizer.

Abstract: A toothbrush including a handle extending in a longitudinal direction and including an upper portion and a base. The upper portion includes an insert portion. The base is made of a flexible material and overlaps the insert portion and includes an interior cavity. A light is configured to emit light visible from outside the handle. An activation device is positioned in the interior cavity and is configured to be pressed in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction to activate the light upon a user pressing the base.

Abstract: Numerous embodiments for processing the current output of a vector-by-matrix multiplication (VMM) array in an artificial neural network are disclosed. The embodiments comprise a summer circuit and an activation function circuit. The summer circuit and/or the activation function circuit comprise circuit elements that can be adjusted in response to the total possible current received from the VMM to optimize power consumption.

Abstract: A mouthwash dispensing system including a bottle having a base and a top portion. The mouthwash dispensing system includes a pump configured to draw mouthwash out from within the bottle, the pump having a pump neck extending into the bottle and a pump nozzle for guiding the mouthwash out of the bottle. The mouthwash dispensing system further includes a cavity within the top portion and positioned below the pump nozzle, the cavity configured to receive a cup, such that the pump draws the mouthwash out of the bottle and into the cup. The mouthwash dispensing system further includes a toothbrush holder configured to rotate about the pump neck and move between a storage position and a use position, the toothbrush holder limiting movement of the cup within the cavity in the storage position, and holding a toothbrush in the use position.

Abstract: A toothbrush including a handle portion, a head portion, a plurality of bristles coupled to the head portion, and a neck portion. The neck portion is curved such that the neck portion is angled in a direction away from an axis the handle portion extends upon and is then angled in a direction towards the axis.

Abstract: A toothbrush with a sculpted figurine. The toothbrush has a head that has multiple bristles. The toothbrush has a handle that has a first end and a second end. The first end is connected to the head and the second end has a base with a recessed portion. The toothbrush has a figurine. The figurine is positioned at least partially within the recessed portion of the base.
