  • FLOW RESTRICTING INTRAVASCULAR DEVICES FOR TREATING EDEMA
    Publication number: 20220104827
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a catheter system that for precisely positioning fluid flow restrictors within a blood vessel. In particular, this disclosure provides a catheter system that includes a sheath with a first fluid flow restrictor mounted thereto, and a catheter that is slidably disposed within the sheath and has a second fluid flow restrictor mounted thereto. Inside a blood vessel, the sheath and the catheter are separately slidable, thereby allowing the first and second fluid flow restrictors to be positioned at precise locations within the blood vessel.

  • FLOW RESTRICTING INTRAVASCULAR DEVICES FOR TREATING EDEMA
    Publication number: 20220104828
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a catheter with a fluid flow restrictor (e.g., a balloon) that includes a flow path. The catheter is useful for creating, and maintaining, an area of reduced pressure within a blood vessel for removing excess fluid from a patient's body. In particular, the catheter is dimensioned for insertion into a blood vessel and includes a fluid flow restrictor that, when deployed, partially occludes the blood vessel. Pressure is reduced within the blood vessel downstream of the occlusion. The flow path allows some blood to flow past the restrictor, which prevents the blood vessel from stretching due to excessive pressure buildup, thereby allowing the area of reduced pressure to be maintained for extended periods of time.

  • Dual SLC/QLC Programming and Resource Releasing
    Publication number: 20220076735
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to improved foggy-fine programming. Rather than initially writing to SLC and then later performing a foggy write to QLC with the data read from SLC and then a fine write to QLC with data re-read from SLC, the foggy write to QLC can be performed in parallel to the initial writing to SLC using the same buffer. Once the foggy write to QLC has completed, and the writing to SLC has also completed, the data buffer can be released. The data written in SLC is then be read from SLC and passes through a relocation buffer for the first and only time to then be written using fine programming to QLC. Thus, the data only passes through the relocation buffer one time and the relocation buffer can be freed to usage after only one pass of the data therethrough.

  • Relocation Flow Using CbA Technology
    Publication number: 20220075561
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to efficiently relocating data within a data storage device. By implementing an error correction code (ECC) module in a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip for each memory die within a memory array of a memory device, the data can be relocated more efficiently. The ECC decodes the codewords at the memory die. The metadata is then extracted from the decoded codewords and transferred to a controller of the data storage device. A flash translation layer (FTL) module at the controller then checks whether the data is valid by comparing the received metadata to FTL tables. If the metadata indicates the data is valid, then the data is relocated.

  • Acid recovery from acid-rich solutions
    Patent number: 11203527
    Abstract: The invention provides a unique, efficient and cost-effective process for the recovery of acid from acid-rich solutions. The process of the invention utilizes a strong oxidizer, such as Caro's acid, to disintegrate or render insoluble organic or inorganic materials such as carbohydrates and complexes thereof contained in acid-rich solutions, to make efficient and simple the separation and recovery of the acid solution. The acid recovered thus obtained is free of organic matter, and containing nearly all of the acid originally contained in the acid-rich solution.

  • PLANE PROGRAMMING SCHEME FOR NON-VOLATILE MEMORY WITH LARGE BLOCK SIZES
    Publication number: 20210389879
    Abstract: For a non-volatile memory system with a multi-plane memory die having a large block size, to be able to more readily accommodate zone-based host data using zones that are of a smaller size that the block size on the memory, the memory system assigns data from different zones to different subsets of the planes of a common memory die. The memory system is configured to accumulate the data from the different zones into different write queues and then assemble the data from the different write zones into pages or partial pages of data that can be simultaneously programmed into memory cells connected to different word lines that are in different sub-blocks of different blocks in the corresponding assigned planes of the die.

  • Method for delaying fundamental reset in power loss protection (PLP) enabled devices
    Patent number: 11157439
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for protecting in-flight data during a fundamental reset of a SSD by a connected host are presented. In embodiments, a controller for the SSD includes an input interface configured to receive commands from the host over a link, and processing circuitry coupled to the input interface. The processing circuitry is configured to, in response to receiving a reset command from the host, reset the link and an address space of the SSD, complete a flush of in-flight data from temporary buffers to non-volatile storage of the SSD, and, during an initialization sequence performed by the host, perform an internal reset. In embodiments, in response to the SSD performing the internal reset, the host's state of the SSD is reset, and the host is caused to re-initialize the link and configure the address space of the SSD.
