Richard L. Timmerhoff has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8195437
    Abstract: A systems power distribution tool integrates the design of the power source and distribution network to provide a robust interconnect topology and power source. This is accomplished with a machine of one or more computing devices configured as a systems power distribution tool. The tool “pulls” load current from the source through interconnects to the loads. This allows the interconnects to be designed to satisfy derating conditions for worst case voltage and current conditions and the power source to be designed to source the loads under actual conditions without margin stacking.
