  • Patent number: 12289556
    Abstract: An image sensor may include an image sensor pixel array. The image sensor pixel array may include active image sensor pixels and non-active image sensor pixels. A line of image sensor pixels may be coupled to readout circuitry. The readout circuitry may use reset level signals from some of the image sensor pixels to obtain a digital average reset level value and may use the digital average reset level value to perform digital-domain correlated double sampling operations for digital image level values from active image sensor pixels in the line of image sensor pixels.

  • Patent number: 12287755
    Abstract: This document describes systems and techniques for a hardware-based save-and-restore controller in an SoC. The described systems and techniques can automatically save and restore access control configurations (e.g., register states) of IP subsystems during a power-down and a power-up sequence, respectively. The save operation is initiated by a local save-and-restore (L SAR) controller and performed by the IP subsystems writing the configuration values to a central save-and-restore (C-SAR) controller before powering down a power domain. The C-SAR controller saves the configuration information in a memory located in an always-on power domain. The described systems and techniques initiate, via the L SAR controller, a restore operation as part of the power-up sequence. In this way, the described systems and techniques provide scalable save-and-restore services, support a large number of power domains, and allow a variable number of access control configurations to be saved and restored.

  • Patent number: 12287362
    Abstract: A system for detecting a fault type and faulted phase in a power grid includes a controller and a relay. The relay is configured to monitor a line of the power grid and generate a monitoring signal. The controller may be configured to determine, in response to the monitoring signal received from the relay, sequence voltages and sequence currents in the line. The controller may further determine, in response to the sequence voltages and sequence currents, an absence or a presence of a weak-infeed condition in the line. The controller may further determine, in response to the monitoring signal and the absence or the presence of the weak-infeed condition, a first plane sequence signature and a second plane sequence signature. The controller may further determine a fault type and faulted phase in the power grid in response to the first plane sequence signature and the second plane sequence signature.
