  • Patent number: 12322912
    Abstract: A cable connector for counting a number of plug-in events and preventing further plug in attempts after a threshold number of plug-in events have occurred. An inner sleeve is located inside an outer sleeve, and is designed to move relative to the outer sleeve. The inner sleeve further includes a tab on an outer surface of the inner sleeve. A gear wheel is located inside the outer sleeve and perpendicular to the inner sleeve and has a number of gear teeth. A toggle plug counter rotates the gear wheel one tooth in response to a plug-in action of the cable counter. When the gear wheel rotates to a point where the tab aligns with a notch in the gear wheel an inner spring at the opposite end of the inner sleeve causes the inner sleeve to move through the gear wheel such that further plugging action becomes difficult.

  • Patent number: 12188964
    Abstract: Method, apparatus and computer program product for spur detection in a sampled waveform in a mixed analog/digital system using the magnitude of the frequency response comprising acquiring a sample waveform including a set of discrete uniformly spaced samples from a target system, wherein the sample waveform is a time domain vector; applying FFT transforming the time domain vector into the frequency domain; analyzing the frequency domain response including calculating the magnitude response; and determining whether the sample waveform has spurs including comparing the magnitude response to an average noise floor threshold including determining that the magnitude response having an average noise floor value above the average noise floor threshold has one or more spurs and determining that the magnitude response having an average noise floor value below the average noise floor threshold has no spurs, wherein a spur indicates unaligned data having a delayed bit flip.

  • Publication number: 20240393922
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a uni-card interface can provide for an interactive dynamic interface for providing information to a user. The uni-card interface may include a multi-state interface that can provide increasingly more detailed information upon each interaction. For example, the uni-card interface can provide a first state with condensed information, a second state with expanded information, and a third state with immersive information.

  • Publication number: 20240386302
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for improving discernment between qubit states in superconducting quantum computers. Channels are calibrated to train the kernel to contain the correct calibration data (“kernel states”). After calibrating a channel, testing is performed in which quantum operations are performed on qubits at the same time in adjacent channels, including the recently calibrated channel, to determine if the kernel response differs from the expected kernel response, where the expected kernel response is based on the kernel states of the trained kernel of the recently calibrated channel, beyond a threshold value. If such a situation occurs, then the phase of the signal for the recently calibrated channel is shifted and the process of recalibrating the channel (using the phase shifted signal) and testing is repeated until the difference between the kernel response and the expected kernel response is not beyond the threshold value.

  • Publication number: 20240376710
    Abstract: A 3D-printed integrated building panel system configured to form a portion of an overall building can include 3D-printed building panels, connectors, and one or more load transfer components. Each 3D-printed building panel can be formed by 3D printing technology using a photocurable composite material, and at least a portion of the 3D-printed building panels can be integrally formed. The connectors can be coupled to one or more of the 3D-printed building panels and can couple the 3D-printed building panels to each other and/or to one or more separate building components of the overall building. The load transfer component(s) can be coupled to at least a portion of the 3D-printed building panels and can transfer loads across the 3D-printed building panels. The load transfer component(s) can be configured to form at least a portion of an overall super structure for the overall building.
