  • Patent number: 11989583
    Abstract: Circuitry comprises two or more clusters of execution units, each cluster comprising one or more execution units to execute processing instructions; and scheduler circuitry to maintain one or more queues of processing instructions, the scheduler circuitry comprising picker circuitry to select a queued processing instruction for issue to an execution unit of one of the clusters of execution units for execution; in which: the scheduler circuitry is configured to maintain dependency data associated with each queued processing instruction, the dependency data for a queued processing instruction indicating any source operands which are required to be available for use in execution of that queued processing instruction and to inhibit issue of that queued processing instruction until all of the required source operands for that queued processing instruction are available and is configured to be responsive to an indication to the scheduler circuitry of the availability of the given operand as a source operand for use

  • Patent number: 11925207
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a hand held base assembly that includes circuitry including memory and firmware executed by a processor or microcontroller of the circuitry; and a cartridge assembly that includes memory that is read by the firmware of the handheld base assembly. The cartridge assembly and the handheld base assembly are configured to removably couple together to define the electronic device for producing an aerosol for inhalation by a person. An enclosed air passageway is defined by the cartridge assembly and by the handheld base assembly, which isolates the airflow from the electronics of the device. The enclosed air passageway extends between the opening of the mouthpiece for taking a breath and a diaphragm of the handheld base assembly, movement of the diaphragm changing the air pressure within an enclosed interior space having a pressure sensor for trigging the pressure sensor when a breath is taken.

  • Publication number: 20230280544
    Abstract: A connector including two connector portions each including a ferrule and a latch, each latch including a distal end, and a proximal end, wherein the latch is pivotable about an intermediate connection portion; and a boot mounted to the connector portions, the boot movable longitudinally relative to the connector portions, wherein the boot causes the distal ends of the latch to pivot toward the ferrule of each connector portion as the boot is moved away from the connector portions. Front housings of the connector portions can each be rotated about the longitudinal axis of the ferrule without rotating the ferrule or the boot, to change the polarity of the two connector portions. The spacing between the two ferrules is adjustable. A holder holds the connector portions, the holder including side slots, the connector portions mounted to the holder by moving laterally to the side slots. The holder defines an area for receipt of a fiber optic cable when the ferrule is pushed in a direction toward the boot.
