  • Publication number: 20240098388
    Abstract: A power tool having multiple wireless communication states and a method of wirelessly communicating by a power tool. The power tool includes a motor, a battery pack interface that selectively receives a battery pack, a backup power source, and a wireless communication controller coupled to the backup power source and the battery pack interface. The wireless communication controller operates in a connectable state when coupled to a battery pack and transmits tool operational data to the external device and receives tool configuration data from the external device. The wireless communication controller operates in an advertisement state when the wireless communication controller is coupled to and powered by the backup power source. In the advertisement state, the wireless communication controller is configured to transmit the unique tool identifier. The external device may also display an indication of the communication state of the power tool.

  • Publication number: 20230185885
    Abstract: A digital rights management (DRM) server receives data associated with a device security profile (DSP) from a content owner device. The DSP specifies requirements for client devices to access content items associated with a content owner. The requirements differ based on a resolution level of the accessed content items. The DRM server stores the DSP and an indication of the content owner. The DRM server receives, from a content server storing the content items associated with the content owner, a pull request for DSP updates. The DRM server transmits the DSP to the content server in response to the pull request. The DSP causes the content server to limit client devices that access the content items according to the DSP.

  • Publication number: 20230134971
    Abstract: Source/drain epitaxial features and methods for fabricating such are disclosed herein. An exemplary method includes receiving a substrate including a n-type region and a p-type region, forming a stack of semiconductor layers over the substrate, the stack of semiconductor layers including interleaving first material layers and second material layers, and performing an etch process to form a first source/drain recess in the n-type region and a second source/drain recess in the p-type region. The method further includes depositing a metal-containing layer over the stack of semiconductor layers, including within the first source/drain recess and the second source/drain recess, removing the metal-containing layer from the n-type region, and forming an n-type epitaxial source/drain feature in the first source/drain recess. The method further includes removing the metal-containing layer from the p-type region and forming a p-type epitaxial source/drain structure in the second source/drain recess.

  • Patent number: 11635311
    Abstract: A system and method for multi-rate synchronization of a digital sensor that provides a digital sensor output signal and a processor arrangement that processes the digital sensor output signal according to a processing algorithm and that provides a processor output signal, including operating the digital sensor to provide the digital sensor output signal with a first sample rate, and operating the processor arrangement to provide a processor output signal with a second sample rate. The second sample rate is an integer multiple of the first sample rate.

  • Publication number: 20220328648
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a base portion on a semiconductor substrate, a channel layer vertically above the base portion and extending parallel to a top surface of the semiconductor substrate, a gate portion between the channel layer and the base portion, a source/drain feature connected to the channel layer, an inner spacer between the source/drain feature and the gate portion, and an air gap between the source/drain feature and the semiconductor substrate. Moreover, a bottom surface of the source/drain feature is exposed in the air gap.

  • Patent number: 11446556
    Abstract: A lightweight compression molded multicolor golf grip having at least a first section and a second section of differing colors and composed of elastomer compounds joined by cross-linking across a sharply defined cross-color interface having an interface transition zone beyond which there is no mixing of the colors. The grip has a soft feel and unique compression characteristics achieved in some embodiments through the controlled use of an expanding blowing agent in a rubber compound. Achieving the sharply defined cross-color interface is due in part to the use of complementary geometries at opposing interface edges to increase the stability of the interface and reduce the flow during molding associated with the increased viscosity of low density rubber compounds, promote cross-linking of the sections, and better distribute and control the consolidation pressure.

  • Patent number: 11266890
    Abstract: A flexible tubular golf club grip is formed of elastomeric material having a substantially closed end with an end cap. The tubular portion is formed of substantially softer material than the end cap and has disposed on opposite sides axially spaced discrete areas of macro-texture having spaced raised portions giving a quilt-like appearance. The discrete areas of macro-texture are disposed peripherally spaced on opposite sides of the grip. The end cap has an extension which closely inter-fits the inner periphery of the tubular portion and provides support therefor proximate the substantially closed end. The cap extension has axially extending protrusions peripherally spaced on the top and bottom of the cap which are flush with the outer surface of the tubular portion.

  • Patent number: 10987557
    Abstract: A flexible elastomeric grip for the shaft of a golf club having an end cap with a cavity for receiving a sensor and/or counterweight. The cap has a durometer hardness equal to or greater than the tubular body portion of the grip and a flange sized to match the larger diameter of the body, with a sleeve engaging the inner periphery of the larger end of the tubular body. In one version of the cap, the sleeve portion is extended in length and has stiffening ribs on the outer surface of the sleeve; and, in another version, the sleeve is shorter and may also have stiffening ribs on the outer surface of the sleeve. In another version of the cap, fibrous material is disposed in the flange and sleeve to increase lateral stiffness without increasing durometer.
