  • Publication number: 20240315001
    Abstract: Memory circuitry comprises vertically-alternating tiers of insulative material and memory cells. The memory cells individually comprising a transistor comprise a first source/drain region, a second source/drain region, and a channel region between the first and second source/drain regions. A gate is operatively-proximate the channel region. A capacitor comprises a first capacitor electrode, a second capacitor electrode, and a capacitor insulator between the first and second capacitor electrodes. The first capacitor electrode is directly electrically coupled to the first source/drain region. The second capacitor electrode of multiple of the capacitors is directly electrically coupled with one another. Digitlines extend elevationally through the vertically-alternating tiers. Individual of the second source/drain regions of individual of the transistors that are in different memory-cell tiers are directly electrically coupled to individual of the digitlines.

  • Publication number: 20240284675
    Abstract: A microelectronic device includes a stack structure comprising a vertically alternating sequence of insulative structures and conductive structures arranged in tiers. At least one pillar, comprising a channel material, extends through the stack structure. A source region, below the stack structure, comprises a doped material. A vertical extension of the doped material protrudes upward to an interface with the channel material at elevation within the stack structure (e.g., an elevation proximate or laterally overlapping in elevation at least one source-side GIDL region). The microelectronic device structure may be formed by a method that includes forming a lateral opening through cell materials of the pillar, recessing the channel material to form a vertical recess, and forming the doped material in the vertical recess. Additional microelectronic devices are also disclosed, as are related methods and electronic systems.

A charge confinement region of the storage node is in horizontal alignment with the conductive materials of the stack. A height of the charge confinement region in a vertical direction is less than a height of a respective, laterally adjacent conductive material of the stack in the vertical direction. Related methods and systems are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11820218
    Abstract: A scalable power unit for powering one or more electric motors of a riding vehicle and/or a piece of outdoor power equipment includes a number of interconnected battery packs. The battery pack are received in a battery tray or stacked to form the scalable power unit. Each battery pack is configured to be removed and used separately or added to a combination of battery packs. A control unit selectively opens and closes switching elements to separately control the connections between the battery packs and an electrical load, such as a motor. During charging, the control unit opens and closes switching elements to control the charging rate of the individual battery packs. When the battery packs are connected to an electrical load, the control unit controls the state of the switching elements to selectively discharge the battery packs to power the riding vehicle and/or electric loads.

  • Publication number: 20230158436
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a status detection method and apparatus for a filter. The filter filters a fluid in a sealed channel. At least a pressure sensor is further provided downstream of the filter in the sealed channel. The method includes: if a fluid flowing through a filter in a sealed channel is controlled to have a first flow rate, then acquiring a first pressure value measured by a pressure sensor; if the fluid flowing through the filter in the sealed channel is controlled to have a second flow rate, then acquiring a second pressure value measured by the pressure sensor; and determining a status of the filter according to a difference between the first pressure value and the second pressure value. Therefore, detection of the status of the filter is achieved, and an operator is prompted to maintain/replace the filter in time. In addition, an existing component can be used, so that applicability is high and detection costs are low.

  • Patent number: 10795750
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention provide a novel architecture for debugging devices. This architecture includes numerous devices that without user intervention automatically detect and report bug events to a set of servers that aggregate and process the bug events. When a device detects a potential bug event, the device in some embodiments generates a description of the potential bug event, and sends the generated description to the server set through a network. In addition to generating such a description, the device in some embodiments directs one or more of its modules to gather and store a collection of one or more data sets that are relevant to the potential bug event, in case the event has to be further analyzed by the server set. In the discussion below, the generated bug-event description is referred to as the event signature, while the gathered collection of data sets for an event is referred to as the event's data archive.
