Publication number: 20230230753Abstract: An electronic component, such as, for example, an inductor, includes a core defining an axis and a conductor that is at least partially wound about the core. The electronic component further includes a mounting surface defining a plane that extends substantially parallel to the axis of the core. The mounting surface is configured to engage a surface of a board. The conductor may include a first terminal and a second terminal extending along the plane such that the first and second terminals are able to be mounted to the surface of the board.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventors: Andrew Klesyk, Lawrence B.

Publication number: 20230230744Abstract: An electronic component, such as, for example, a transformer, includes a core, a first wire, and a second wire. The first wire is wound at least in part about at least a portion of the core in a first winding. The second wire is wound at least in part about at least a portion of the core in a second winding such that the first winding and the second winding alternate at least in part along at least a portion of the core. The electronic component includes windings that are intertwined about the core to form an intertwined spiral winding. Such a configuration can both improve electrical characteristics of the electronic component while reducing a height of the electronic component. Further, methods of manufacturing such components and customizing same are disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventors: Andrew Klesyk, Lawrence B.

Publication number: 20230154809Abstract: An implantable device and method of manufacture include a substantially hermetic polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE) enclosure with closely-spaced wires extending out of the enclosure. The implantable device includes a PCTFE first portion of an enclosure and a PCTFE second portion of the enclosure. The first and second portions are configured to mate with each other to form the enclosure. A plurality of insulated wires extend between the first and second portions of the enclosure. Each of the insulated wires are parallel to each other and separated by less than 150 micrometers (?m) from a neighboring wire. A thermal weld seam of PCTFE is disposed between the first portion of the enclosure and the second portion of the enclosure and conformally adheres around insulation of each wire such that the enclosure is sealed.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 17, 2021Publication date: May 18, 2023Applicant: Neuralink Corp.Inventors: John W.F.

Patent number: 10389723Abstract: A news aggregation server aggregates and monetizes restricted news content. The news aggregation server fetches the restricted news content from multiple news source servers that are remote from the news aggregation server. The news aggregation server aggregates the fetched restricted news content and searches the aggregated news content based on input received from a client. The news aggregation server provides access to selected news content from the aggregated news content that is relevant to the client input and charges the user a price for accessing the selected restricted news content.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2015Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Krishna Bharat, Michael Schmitt, Michael Curtiss, Marissa Mayer, Kerah Cottrell, Hong Zhou, Duane Scott Hess

Patent number: 10277551Abstract: Methods and systems for providing current email addresses or contact information to members within a social network are described. In one described method, an email program application requests an email address for a member within a social network. Using profile information associated with the member, the email address is provided to the email program application which sent the request. The email address is then entered into the send-to parameter field of an email message. In another described method, contact information associated with a first member of a social can be provided to a second member of the social network.

Patent number: 7613769Abstract: Methods and systems for providing hyperlinks to blogs that are maintained by members of a social network who have a particular association or relationship with a member of the social network in response to a request are described. A request for blog information may come from a member of the social network or from non-members. In order to gather the blog information, an association type (or association) associated with the request may be identified by a software application. After identifying the association, members of the social network who have the identified association with the member of interest may be identified using profile information associated with the member of interest. Once members having the identified association with the member of interest are identified, blog information for each identified member may be determined. Once the blog information is identified, a representation of the blog information (for example, a text-based display with hyperlinks) may be generated.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2004Date of Patent: November 3, 2009Assignee: Google Inc.Inventor: Duane Scott Hess
