  • Publication number: 20250141818
    Abstract: An apparatus has bridge circuitry to communicate transport packets between a transport network and data processing circuitry. Some or all of the data processing circuitry operates in a given reset domain other than the reset domain of the transport network. The apparatus also has packet tracking circuitry to monitor the transport packets received at the bridge circuitry and to track whether any required responses have been provided. The reset handling circuitry is responsive to a reset request for the given reset domain to: cause the bridge circuitry to reject new transport packets received for the domain; and when the packet tracking circuitry indicates that all required responses have been provided, accept the reset request for the given reset domain and allow the data processing circuitry to carry out a reset for the data processing circuitry operating in the given reset domain.

  • Publication number: 20250103129
    Abstract: A memory instance comprises a plurality of banks of storage cells to store data values, and input/output circuitry shared between the plurality of banks for receiving write data or outputting read data. Each bank of storage cells supports a power saving mode and an operational mode. A control interface receives power control signals for controlling use of the power saving mode. Bank power control circuitry individually controls, for each of a plurality of subsets of banks of storage cells within the same memory instance, whether that subset of banks is in the power saving mode based on the power control signals. For at least one setting for the power control signals, one subset of banks is in the power saving mode while another subset of banks in the same memory instance is in the operational mode. Also disclosed is power control circuitry which selects the power mode to use for each subset of banks and generates the power control signals.

  • Publication number: 20250081899
    Abstract: This application relates to a method for growing aerial mycelium with a defined growth pattern and products of aerial mycelium materials with defined growth patterns based on controlled inoculation and either pasteurization or sterilization of a substrate in situ at the same select physical location. For example, a defined growth pattern can include a homogeneous growth topology or a geometrically regular pattern of bulbous forms, prompted by a defined geometrically regular inoculation of pasteurized or sterilized substrate from which the aerial mycelium is grown.
