Patent number: 12153597Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for accessing a semantic change data capture (CDC). An embodiment operates by receiving a request for changes made to a source system from a consumer at a target system. The embodiment determines a high watermark stored in a consumer registration table based on the consumer. The embodiment further determines a set of open transactions on an enhanced data table. The embodiment then determines a set of changes made to the source system based on the high watermark and the set of open transactions. The embodiment transmits the set of changes to the consumer at the target system. The embodiment then receives a confirmation from the consumer at the target system that the set of changes were committed to the target system. The embodiment then updates the high watermark in the consumer registration table based on the confirmation.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2023Date of Patent: November 26, 2024Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Florian Maier, Daniel Bos, Peter Schoenau, Tobias Karpstein

Patent number: 12088283Abstract: A gate driver system includes a gate driver circuit coupled to a gate terminal of a transistor and configured to control a gate voltage to generate an on-current during a plurality of turn-on switching events to turn on the transistor. The gate driver circuit includes a first driver configured to source a first portion of the on-current to the gate terminal to charge a first portion of the gate voltage, and a second driver configured to, during a boost interval, source a second portion of the on-current to the gate terminal to charge a second portion of the gate voltage.
