  • Publication number: 20220351032
    Abstract: A compute-in-memory (CIM) array module and a method for performing dynamic saturation detection for a CIM array are provided. The CIM array module includes a CIM array, saturation detection units (SDUs) and a controller. The CIM array includes selectable row signal lines, column signal lines and cells. Each cell is located at an intersection of a selectable row signal line and a column signal line, and each cell has a programmable conductance. The SDUs are selectively coupled to at least one column signal line, and each SDU is configured to, for each column signal line, generate an analog signal, and identify the column signal line as a saturated column signal line when a voltage of the analog signal is greater than a saturation threshold voltage, or a current of the analog signal is greater than a saturation threshold current.

  • Publication number: 20160375172
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for fabricating a flowable hemostatic composition. The invention also relates to hemostatic compositions and methods for promoting wound healing. In various embodiments, the hemostatic compositions comprise crosslinkable collagen molecules having a porosity controlled by the ratio of weight percent collagen solids to weight percent crosslinker when crosslinking the collagen. In other embodiments, the hemostatic compositions comprise crosslinkable collagen molecules having a porosity controlled by the temperature and rate of freezing when drying the composition during fabrication. In some embodiments, the compositions contain additional agents, including biological agents.

  • Patent number: 7125050
    Abstract: A sheet divider may include a sheet stock having an edge and a tab. The tab may be disposed at the edge of the sheet stock and have an opening. The opening is configured to enable a label to be inserted into the tab from a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the edge of the sheet stock. For example, a label may be inserted into the tab from a direction of the sheet stock. In other words, a label may be inserted in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the edge of the sheet stock. The tab may include a projecting portion that extends beyond the edge of the sheet stock and that is free of openings. A pocket may be formed in the projecting portion to receive a label. In addition, the projecting portion may be curvilinear in shape. The labels may be relatively large so that a proximal portion extends out of the tab. The sheet stock may include retaining structure for retaining the corners of the proximal portion of the label against the sheet stock.

  • Publication number: 20040066031
    Abstract: A folder having at least one document retaining tab for receiving and retaining at least one sheet of paper that has been inserted into a pocket of the folder. The document retaining tab may be provided as a center tab and/or as at least one interior corner tab of the folder. The folder may be formed from a single sheet of die-cut material that is folded along a plurality of score lines to form the folder and center or corner tabs. The die-cut sheet may be provided with extended portions that may be used to form the center or corner tabs. The extended portions may be mirror images of one another.
