  • Patent number: 8059454
    Abstract: An adjustable write pulse generator is disclosed. The adjustable write pulse generator includes a band-gap reference current, a programmable ring oscillator, a frequency divider and a single pulse generator. The band-gap reference current circuit generates a well-compensated current over a predetermined range of temperatures needed to program a chalcogenide memory cell. The programmable ring oscillator generates a first set of continuous write “0” and write “1” pulse signals based on the well-compensated current. The frequency divider then divides the first set of continuous write “0” and write “1” pulse signals into a second set of continuous write “0” and write “1” pulse signals. The single pulse generator subsequently converts the second set of continuous write “0” and write “1” pulse signals into a single write “0” pulse signal or a single write “1” pulse signal when programming the chalcogenide memory cell.

  • Patent number: 7986550
    Abstract: An analog access circuit for characterizing chalcogenide memory cells is disclosed. The analog access circuit includes an analog access control module, an address and data control module, and an analog cell access and current monitoring module. The analog access control module selectively controls whether a normal memory access or an analog memory access should be performed on a specific chalcogenide memory cell. The address and data control module allows a normal memory access to the chalcogenide memory cell according to an input address. The analog cell access and current monitoring module performs an analog memory access to the chalcogenide memory cell according to the input address, and monitors a reference current from a sense amplifier associated with the chalcogenide memory cell.

  • Publication number: 20110092264
    Abstract: The online poker gaming system comprises a live or recorded poker game, and at least one gaming terminal. The live or recorded poker game involves a group of players sitting around a table. Each player is playing for prize money so there is a cash incentive for each to win. The player terminal displays images of the live or recorded game being broadcast for view by an online player. The player terminal also includes a schematic of the game for presenting in a concise and visual way, the game status and gaming data of the live or recorded game. The player terminal also includes a keypad, enabling the online player to select one or more players to win, and select a value for each selection. So while the online player cannot make gaming decisions—fold, call, check, and raise—the online player can participate by making selections, much as one would make selections at a racetrack. The online player can make multiple playing selections unavailable to the player sitting at the table.

  • Patent number: 7916527
    Abstract: A read reference circuit for a sense amplifier within a chalcogenide memory device is disclosed. The read reference circuit provides a reference voltage level to the sense amplifier for distinguishing between a logical “0” state and a logical “1” state within a chalcogenide memory cell. In conjunction with a precharge circuit, the read reference circuit generates a selectable read reference current to the sense amplifier in order to detect the logical state of the chalcogenide memory cell. The precharge circuit precharges the bitlines of the chalcogenide memory cell before the sense amplifier detects the logical state of the chalcogenide memory cell.

  • Patent number: 7770729
    Abstract: An array of multi-stage configured cleansing wipe products may include first stage cleansing wipes and second stage cleansing wipes. The first stage cleansing wipes may have a first structure and a first composition selected in view of a first child developmental stage. The second stage cleansing wipes may have a second structure and a second composition selected in view of a second child developmental stage. The first structure and the first composition are different and potentially progressive from first stage to second stage. First stage product packaging may include at least one first stage-specific indicia and second stage product packaging may include at least one second stage-specific indicia. Stages of the array may be communicated and tailored based upon the foods eaten and the manner of eating (such as being fed or self-feeding) of the babies or children in each stage.

  • Patent number: 7765509
    Abstract: A system and method for generating simulated wiring connections between a semiconductor device and a carrier. The method comprises identifying a plurality of first factors and instances of each first factor relating to the semiconductor device and identifying a plurality of second factors and instances of each second factor relating to the carrier. The first and second factors are associated with each other on a one-to-one basis. A simulated wiring connection is generated between a first I/O terminal and a matching second I/O terminal, subject to an identified instance of each first factor of each first I/O terminal being correlated to an identified instance of the associated second factor of the matching second I/O terminal. A simulated wiring connection is generated between third I/O terminals located in a first region and fourth I/O terminals located in a second region.
