  • Publication number: 20240138665
    Abstract: An imaging system, optionally an intra-oral camera, includes a blue light source and a barrier filter over a camera sensor. Optionally, the imaging system can also take white light images. Optionally, the system includes positively charged nanoparticles with fluorescein. The fluorescent nanoparticles can be identified on an image of a tooth by machine vision or machine learning algorithms on a pixel level basis. Either white light or fluorescent images can be used, with machine learning or artificial intelligence algorithms, to score the lesions. However, the white light image is not useful for determining whether lesions, particularly ICDAS 0-2 lesions, are active or inactive. A fluorescent image, with the fluorescent nanoparticles, can be used to detect and score active lesions. Optionally using a white light image and a fluorescent image together allows for all lesions, active and inactive, to be located and scored, and for their activity to be determined.

  • Publication number: 20240126560
    Abstract: An Ethernet switch and a switch microcontroller or CPU are integrated onto a system-on-a-chip (SoC). The Ethernet switch remains independently operating at full speed even though the remainder of the SoC is being reset or is otherwise nonoperational. The Ethernet switch is on a separated power and clock domain from the remainder of the integrated SoC. A warm reset signal is trapped by control microcontroller (MCU) to allow the switch CPU to isolate the Ethernet switch and save state. When the Ethernet switch is isolated and operating independently, the warm reset request is provided to the other entities on the integrated SoC. When warm reset is completed, the state is restored and the various DMA and flow settings redeveloped in the integrated SoC to allow return to normal operating condition.

  • Patent number: 11960416
    Abstract: Techniques including a memory controller with a set of memory channel queues, wherein memory channel queues of the set of memory channel queues correspond to memory channels to access a set of memory modules, a first arbitration module, and a second arbitration module. The memory controller is configured to receive a first memory request from the peripheral and place one or more portions of the first memory request in the memory channel queues of the set of memory channel queues. The first arbitration module is configured to determine an arbitration algorithm, select a first memory channel queue based on the arbitration algorithm, present the one or more portions of the first memory request in the selected first memory channel queue to the second arbitration module, and output the presented one or more portions of the first memory request based on a selection by the second arbitration module.

  • Publication number: 20240066093
    Abstract: Methods of inhibiting the spread of African swine fever virus and/or classical swine fever virus in animal feed, feed ingredients, and pet food are provided. The methods utilize generally safe chemical mitigants, such as medium chain fatty acids. The chemical mitigants are effective when introduced to the feed or feed ingredients at inclusion rates much lower than previous methods for inhibiting other microbes. The methods are particularly suitable for use in post-processing treatment of animal feed, feed ingredients, or pet food that will be transported and stored for multiple days or weeks.

  • Publication number: 20230305982
    Abstract: An interface bridge to enable communication between a first integrated circuit die and a second integrated circuit die is disclosed. The two integrated circuit die may be connected via chip-to-chip interconnects. The first integrated circuit die may include programmable logic fabric. The second integrated circuit die may support the first integrated circuit die. The first integrated circuit die and the secondary integrated circuit die may communicate with one another via the chip-to-chip interconnects using an interface bridge. The first and second component integrated circuits may include circuitry to implement the interface bridge, which may provide source-synchronous communication using a data receive clock from the second integrated circuit die to the first integrated circuit die.

  • Publication number: 20230174402
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an improved scale inhibiting formulation that is effective, environmentally friendly, and does not add any organic compounds or traditional polymeric compounds to treated water. The scale inhibiting composition includes molecular clusters of polyammonium bisulfate (PABS), which can interact physically, chemically, or physio-chemically with one or more ions in the water or water-containing system being treated. That interaction inhibits scale accretion and/or removes previously formed scale.

  • Publication number: 20220190843
    Abstract: A seemingly monolithic interface between separate integrated circuit die may appear to be parallel or asynchronous from the perspective of the separate integrated circuit die. The signals of the seemingly monolithic interface, however, may actually be communicated between the separate die via serial and/or synchronous communication. In one method, a number of signals stored in a first parallel interface on a first integrated circuit die may be sampled. In some cases, at least one of the signals may be sampled more often than another one of the signals. A serial signal may be generated based on sampled signals. The serial signal may be transmitted to a corresponding second parallel interface on the second integrated circuit die.

  • Patent number: 10831960
    Abstract: Systems and methods for reconfiguration of a hardened intellectual property (IP) block in an integrated circuit (IC) device are provided. Reconfiguration of the hardened IP block in the IC device may transition between functions supported by the hardened IP block. A transition may occur as a pre-configured profile is selected to reconfigure the hardened IP block. Further, configuration data associated with each of the pre-configured profiles of the hardened IP block may be generated and storage space to store the configuration data may be created. Additionally, reconfiguration control logic to read and implement the configuration data in hard IP design primitives may also be generated.
