Abstract: Some of the present downlights include a housing having a thermally-conductive upper wall, a lower wall that defines an aperture, and a sidewall extending between the thermally-conductive upper wall and the lower wall, and a light fixture including or configured to receive a light source, where the light fixture is configured to be coupled to the housing such that the light source is adjacent to and in thermal communication with the thermally-conductive upper wall. In some downlights, the thermally-conductive upper wall is removably coupled to the sidewall. In some downlights, the light fixture has a reflector configured to direct light from the light source and through the aperture, and the light fixture is configured to be coupled to the housing such that the reflector is spaced apart from the sidewall.

Abstract: This disclosure includes adjustable light fixtures and methods for using the same. Some light fixtures use or include a base having a stationary portion with first and second ends, where the first end defines an opening and the second end is configured to secure the fixture to a structure, and a rotatable portion having a mounting surface, where the rotatable portion is configured to be disposed within the opening and to rotate relative to the stationary portion in the plane of the first end, an emitter housing having a first end and a second end, where the first end defines an aperture and the emitter housing defines an interior volume configured to receive a light source, and a hinge coupled to the mounting surface and the second end of the emitter housing, where the hinge is configured to permit angular displacement of the emitter housing relative to the rotatable portion.

Abstract: Some of the present apparatuses include a mount having a sidewall extending between first and second ends to define an interior volume and one or more openings in communication with the interior volume, one or more first clamp members disposed within the interior volume, each defining a channel in communication with a respective one of the opening(s) and configured to receive a conduit, and one or more second clamp members, each configured to be coupled to a respective one of the first clamp member(s) to secure the conduit between the clamp members. Some apparatuses include a fixture having a base, where the base of the fixture is configured to be coupled to the first end of the mount. In some apparatuses, the mount includes one or more stops, each coupled to a respective one of the clamp members and configured to limit movement of the conduit into the interior volume.

Abstract: Some embodiments of the present fixtures include a mechanical actuator configured to direct movement of a light mount along an arcuate path defined by arcuate bearing surface(s). Some embodiments of the present fixtures include a rotatable portion coupled to a stationary portion at an interface that is at least partially defined by smooth surface(s). Some embodiments of the present mounts include a base having a sidewall that defines an outer perimeter and mounting tab(s), each movable between a deployed state and a retracted state in which at least a portion of the mounting tab is disposed within the outer perimeter. Some embodiments of the present removable shroud assemblies include a lens coupled to a second end of a shroud and movable from a first position to a second position in which a portion of the lens is not in contact with the second end of the shroud.

Abstract: Full-chip scan data can be advantageously used during design planning to minimize top-level scan wires and scan feedthroughs. The scan cells can be reordered using a modified cost function to promote connecting all scan cells in one plan group before crossing to a scan cell in another plan group. The modified cost function can take into account penalty parameters. The penalty parameters can include at least one of: membership in a plan group or a top-level physical hierarchy, size of a plan group, FLOATING/ORDERED scan element in scan data, location of endpoints of an ORDERED list, location of endpoints of a macro, and membership in a plan group containing a STOP point. Scan data, at the block-level and at the top-level, can be automatically updated to reflect the plan groups and optimized scan chains.
