  • Patent number: 11097633
    Abstract: Techniques are described for implementing automated control systems to control operations of target physical systems including batteries, such as based at least in part on models of the batteries' dynamic behaviors that are generated by gathering and analyzing information about the batteries' operations under varying conditions. The techniques may include, for each of multiple charge levels of a battery and for each of multiple resistive loads, injecting multi-frequency microvolt pulses into the battery, and using sensors to collect time changes of the responses to these pulses. Information about the inputs and the responses is then analyzed and used to generate an incremental parametric state model representing the internal dynamics of the battery, which is further used to control additional ongoing battery operations (e.g., to control whether and how much power is supplied to and/or extracted from the battery in a current or future time period).

  • Patent number: 10915133
    Abstract: A voltage regulator circuit is presented that can generate a stable and well-regulated output level to supply loads that have large dynamic current and capacitive variation. A compensation circuit is added to introduce a zero that tracks the voltage regulator's non-dominant pole. The compensation circuit includes a compensation transistor, whose gate is connected to receive the same voltage as the regulator's load driving pass transistor, and a series combination of a capacitance and a tracking resistance connected in series between the compensation transistor's gate and a supply level, where the value of the tracking resistance depends on the current supplied to the load. The tracking resistance can be implemented as a diode connected NMOS through which the compensation transistor is connected to the low supply level, or a diode connected PMOS whose current tracks that of the compensation transistor through a current mirror.

  • Patent number: 10917066
    Abstract: An input/output apparatus of a multiplexer is provided, including: a main tap and at least two branch taps of the main tap, where each of the at least two branch taps is configured to couple to a different resonant cavity in the multiplexer, and the at least two branch taps include a first branch tap and a second branch tap; a coupling polarity of the first branch tap is opposite to that of the second branch tap; and a coupling calculation frequency of the second branch tap is closest to a coupling calculation frequency of the first branch tap. The input/output apparatus of the multiplexer enables two channels with closest frequencies to use different coupling polarities. Because the coupling polarities are different, signals naturally do not interfere with each other, and signal interference between channels is eliminated in principle. The embodiments of the present disclosure further provide a corresponding multiplexer.

  • Patent number: 10910072
    Abstract: Apparatuses and techniques are described for calibrating a negative voltage source. A ground voltage is applied to a multi-stage amplifier from the negative voltage source while an offset voltage measurement (OVM) is made at the output of the multi-stage amplifier. The OVM is recorded and subsequently used by a calibration circuit when the negative voltage source applies a range of negative voltages to the input of the multiple stage amplifier. The calibration circuit subtracts the OVM from measurements obtained at the output of the multi-stage amplifier to obtain corrected measurements, and uses the corrected measurements to calibrate the negative voltage source, e.g., by adjusting a relationship between digital values input to the negative voltage source and the output voltages.
