  • Publication number: 20240098880
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an electronic device, and more specifically, to an electronic device including a printed circuit board including a heat-generating element arranged on one surface thereof, and a heat transfer coin provided such that one surface of the heat transfer coin comes into contact with a portion of the other surface of the printed circuit board, opposite to the heat-generating element, so as to dissipate heat generated from the heat-generating element. Accordingly, the present disclosure provides an advantage of improving heat dissipation performance without increasing the thickness of the printed circuit board.

  • Patent number: 11442728
    Abstract: A sequence alignment method that may be performed by a vector processor is may include loading a sequence that is an instance of vector data including a plurality of elements, dividing the sequence into two groups, aligning respective elements of the groups to generate a sequence of sorted elements according to a single instruction multiple data mode, and iteratively performing an alignment operation based on a determination that each group in the sequence of sorted elements includes more than one element of the plurality of elements. Each iteration may include dividing each group to form new groups and aligning respective elements of each pair of adjacent new groups to generate a new sequence of sorted elements. The new sequence of a current iteration of the alignment operation may be transmitted as a data output, based on a determination that each new group does not include more than one element.
