Patent number: 12503371Abstract: The present disclosure discloses a method for strengthening a biological manganese oxidation using a magnetic field and use thereof. The method includes steps of inoculating a manganese-oxidizing microorganism into a culture medium containing Mn2+, performing magnetization treatment in a culture process, and then collecting a biogenic manganese oxide. The method includes steps of performing a primary magnetic field treatment at a magnetic field intensity of 0.2-50 mT for 1-5 h when culturing is performed for 6-12 h, continuing culturing after the primary magnetization treatment, and performing magnetization treatment once every other 24 h for culture time of 72 h. A magnetic field is applied to accelerate an oxidation rate of a manganese-oxidizing microorganism to Mn2+ and a biological manganese oxidation rate is respectively improved by 36.4% and 23.8% under an action of an alternating magnetic field or a constant magnetic field within 72 h.Type: GrantFiled: March 6, 2023Date of Patent: December 23, 2025Assignee: TONGJI UNIVERSITYInventors: Mei Wang, Zuxin Xu, Bin Dong, Mengke Cui, Sisi Chen, Yifan Zeng, Chun Lu

Patent number: 12394345Abstract: To reduce overall power consumption for an electronic display power management integrated circuit (PMIC), one of multiple electric power converters and/or electric power regulators may be selected based on an electrical load (e.g., due to the total brightness of the content displayed) on the electronic display at a given moment. In some embodiments, the PMIC may include a less efficient heavy load converter designed with high-current handling capability and a more efficient light load (e.g., low current) converter with lower current handling capability. A controller may dynamically select between the converters depending on a present load or an expected load on the electronic display.Type: GrantFiled: June 21, 2023Date of Patent: August 19, 2025Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Jie Won Ryu, Ardra Singh, Arthur L Spence, Christopher P Tann, Chun Lu, Daniel J Drusch, Hyunwoo Nho, Jongyup Lim, Kingsuk Brahma, Marc J DeVincentis, Mohammad Ali Jangda, Paolo Sacchetto, Peter F Holland, Shawn P Hurley, Wei H Yao, Yue Jack Chu, Zhe Hua

Patent number: 11756505Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for providing intra-frame luminance scaling to avoid drawing excessive power while still providing exceptional brightness. An instantaneous average pixel luminance of an electronic display may be determined. The instantaneous average pixel luminance may correspond to an amount of light currently being emitted by the electronic display due to a previous image frame and a current image frame. Based at least in part on the instantaneous average pixel luminance, the luminance of a subset of pixels of image data of the current image frame may be adjusted, thereby allowing the electronic display to operate at a relatively high brightness level without exceeding a power limit.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2021Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yang Xu, Jie Won Ryu, Kingsuk Brahma, Koorosh Aflatooni, Marc Joseph DeVincentis, Mohammad Ali Jangda, Paolo Sacchetto, Shengkui Gao, Sinan Alousi, Yafei Bi, Chun Lu

Patent number: 10847112Abstract: A VCOM generator circuit generates a VCOM signal for an electronic display. The VCOM circuit includes an operational amplifier having reduced supply rails. In an implementation, the VCOM circuit has at least three supply rails, AVDD, ground or GND, and VP or VN, or both. VP is less than AVDD and greater than VN. VN is higher than ground and below VP. The VCOM circuit with reduced voltage supply rails for VP and VN reduces power consumption of the VCOM op amps. By reducing power consumption, this also reduces the surface temperature of the integrated circuit.Type: GrantFiled: January 26, 2017Date of Patent: November 24, 2020Assignee: IML InternationalInventors: Alberto Giovanni Viviani, Dimitry Goder, JunGi Lee, ChinFa Kao, Chun Lu
