  • Patent number: 11984168
    Abstract: An interface circuit that can operate in toggle mode at data high transfer rates while reducing the self-induced noise is presented. The high speed toggle mode interface supplies a data signal to a data line or other transfer line by a driver circuit. The driver circuit includes a pair of series connected transistors connected between a high supply level and a low supply level, where the data line is supplied from a node between the two transistors. A resistor is connected between one or both of the transistors and one of the supply levels, with a capacitor connected between the low supply level and a node between the resistor and the transistor. The resistor helps to isolate the transistor from the supply level while the capacitor can act as current reservoir to boost the current to the transistor during data transition, reducing the noise seen by the voltage supply.

  • Patent number: 11983513
    Abstract: A neural transformer model with attention is trained to predict candidates to complete a line of source code with a zero-inference capability. The model is trained on an unsupervised training dataset that includes features from source code written in multiple programming languages. The features include a file-level context and a local context, where the file-level context includes a global context, a class context, a function context, and/or a method context for each class, function and/or method of the source code programs used in the training dataset. The local context includes method bodies, function bodies, and/or stand-alone code of main method routines. From these features, the model is able to learn to predict an ordered sequence of code elements that complete a line of source code in a programming language seen and not seen during training.

  • Patent number: 11982105
    Abstract: An exemplary latchbolt assembly includes a latchbolt, a locking sleeve, and a roller engaged between the latchbolt and the locking sleeve. The latchbolt is configured to drive the roller from a first position to a second position as the latchbolt moves from a projected position to a depressed position. The locking sleeve includes a blocking surface and a recessed portion. When the blocking surface is aligned with the roller, the locking sleeve retains the roller in the first position, thereby retaining the latchbolt in the projected position. When the recessed portion is aligned with the roller, the locking sleeve permits movement of the roller from the first position to the second position, thereby enabling depression of the latchbolt.
