Abstract: A flexible row count card tier for attachment to a retail greeting card display unit. The flexible row count card tier contains both permanent card rows and flexible card rows. The flexible row count card tier may be adapted to have a differing number of card rows by opening or closing one or more of the flexible card rows. Closing a flexible card row creates one less row but increases the depth of the card row directly below the closed flexible card row. The number and depth of rows can be adjusted depending on the merchandising and card density need per season or retailer productivity.

Abstract: A spin orbit torque (SOT) memory device includes a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) device with one end coupled with a first electrode and an opposite end coupled with a second electrode including a spin orbit torque material. In an embodiment, a second electrode is coupled with the free magnet and coupled between a pair of interconnect line segments. The second electrode and the pair of interconnect line segments include a spin orbit torque material. The second electrode has a conductive path cross-section that is smaller than a cross section of the conductive path in at least one of the interconnect line segments.

Abstract: The greeting card outpost of the present disclosure and related inventions is a unique and versatile structure which maximizes the number of greeting cards which can be displayed for sale in retail areas which are limited in space. The fixture includes a plurality of adjacent vertically arranged card pockets attached to an angled support structure and standard tube frame which creates angled array of greeting cards extending outward from a front of the display and ending in a fin-like fashion at the back of the display. The novel arrangement decreases the size of space required to display the variety of greeting cards which can be accommodated upon the outpost fixture.

Abstract: Various embodiments are directed to providing constant phase digital attenuation. In one embodiment, a digital attenuator circuit (100) comprises an input node (102) to receive an input signal to be attenuated, an output node (104) to output an attenuated signal, a reference loss path (106) between the input node (102) and the output node (104), and an attenuation path (108) between the input node (102) and the output node (104). The reference loss path (106) comprises switching elements and matching circuitry to improve Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), and the attenuation path (108) comprises switching elements and attenuating circuitry to attenuate the input signal when the digital attenuator circuit (100) is switched from a reference loss state to an attenuation state. An effective phase length of the reference loss path (106) and an effective phase length of the attenuation path (108) may be equalized to provide a constant phase when the digital attenuator circuit (100) is switched between states.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for transmitting signal, the apparatus comprising a front end telecommunications module including a power amplifier, a matching circuit coupled to the power amplifier, and a filter coupled to the matching circuit, such that a signal received by the power amplifier is transmitted to the filter through the matching circuit. The telecommunications module provides quad-band capability in a compact design.

Abstract: A combined matching and harmonic rejection circuit with increased harmonic rejection provided by a split resonance for one or more of the capacitive or inductive elements of the circuit. At a fundamental frequency, the circuit comprises an inductive series arm with capacitive shunt arms. The capacitance of a shunt arm may be provided by two or more parallel paths, each having a capacitor and an inductor in series so that, in addition to providing the effective capacitance necessary for impedance matching at the fundamental frequency, two separate harmonics represented by the series resonances of the parallel paths are rejected. In this manner, an extra null in the circuit's stop-band may be achieved using the same number of shunt elements necessary to achieve impedance matching at the fundamental frequency.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for detecting radio frequency transmit power levels produced by a power amplifier of a wireless device is described. In one exemplary apparatus implementation, the apparatus includes a power amplifier, an antenna switch and a power amplifier detector. The power amplifier is configured to amplify a transmit signal at a desired power level. An antenna switch, is located between the power amplifier and an antenna, and is configured to switch the antenna from a receive mode to a transmit mode and vice versa. A power amplifier detector is connected to the antenna switch. The power amplifier detector is configured to receive a leakage signal from the antenna switch as a basis to detect the power level of the transmit signal.
