Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for correcting errors in unmatched memory devices. Various embodiments herein train a memory interface to determine a duty cycle timing for a clock signal in a data window formed by a data signal in a memory cell. The duty cycle timing identifies an initial trained timing in the data window at which a setup portion and a hold portion of the data window are approximately equal in length when the trigger signal is received at the initial trained timing. The embodiments herein also identify an event that shifts the duty cycle timing away from the initial trained timing, and triggers a retraining of the memory interface based on a determination that at least one of two points defined about the initial trained timing fails a two-point sampling.

Abstract: Systems and methods for separating materials and recovery of valuable copper from shredded end-of-life vehicles and appliances are disclosed. The system utilizes a pair of conveyor belts; one for de-watering and removing most of the plastic and glass particles and a second below the first for separating the copper wire bits. The second conveyor belt has a belt with a particular tooth pattern and material softness, and is set at a slight uphill incline angle. Water is delivered from the top down the slope and the belt successfully transports mostly just copper up and over a top edge to a collection bin. A cascading series of pairs of conveyors may be used to ensure nearly complete recovery of the copper. A secondary copper recovery conveyor having a field of nails or spikes may be added subsequent to the last primary conveyor for enhanced yield of copper wire.

Abstract: Example methods are provided to identify unused memory regions in pages that are allocated for storing executable code. One or more of the unused memory regions are usable as a secure location to store confidential information shared between a hypervisor on the host and a guest (such as a guest virtual computing instance) that runs on the host. The one or more unused memory regions may also be used to store executable code (such as valid executable code of antivirus software or other security program) that has been prevented/delayed in its execution by malicious code that has occupied the pages, thereby providing the executable code with sufficient memory resources to enable the executable code to at least partially complete execution.

Abstract: In order to lower the peak and average current through the channel (thereby lowering peak and average power consumption) during program-verify, which exhibits a word line dependency, the inventors propose to program dummy memory cells connected to a dummy word line before programming data memory cells connected to a data word line. The additional resistance in the NAND string introduced by the preprogrammed dummy memory cells will cause the peak current, and power consumption, to be lower. To address the word line dependency, the dummy memory cells connected to the dummy word line can be programmed to different threshold voltages based on which data word line is to be programmed. Thus, prior to programming data non-volatile memory cells connected to a particular data word line, the dummy memory cells are programmed to a threshold voltage that is chosen based on the position of the particular data word line.
