  • Publication number: 20250069675
    Abstract: The disclosure configures a memory sub-system controller to use prior read verify operations to selectively apply enhancements to read window budgets (RWB). The controller receives a request to perform a memory operation on data stored in an individual memory component of a set of memory components. The controller accesses RWB tracking information associated with the individual memory component and determines that the tracking information associated with the individual memory component indicates a need for enhancing a RWB associated with the memory operation. The controller applies one or more enhancement processes to the individual memory component in response to determining that the tracking information associated with the individual memory component indicates the need for enhancing the RWB associated with the memory operation.

  • Publication number: 20250061719
    Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a method for work zone management, including the steps of providing one or more images of a work zone, analyzing the one or more images to detect one or more work-zone related objects within the work zone, sizing the detected work-zone related objects by comparing the detected objects to known sizes of common work zone equipment to establish a scale, calculating estimated positions of the one or more work-zone related objects, mapping the one or more work-zone related objects to a topological map, calculating a topology complexity score based on the topological map, and determining whether the work zone is an organized work zone or a random accumulation of work zone objects, based on the topology complexity score.

  • Publication number: 20250007211
    Abstract: An electrical connector comprises a body, a terminal, and a cover. The body includes a receiving cavity in which the terminal is arranged. The terminal defines a contract portion and a pre-pressing portion. The cover is assembled onto the body and defines a pre-pressing groove. The pre-pressing portion abuts against the pre-pressing groove with the cover assembled onto the body.

  • Publication number: 20240079808
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes a body having a terminal installation position for installing a terminal, a first connecting part, an accommodating cavity, and an insertion slot, a cover having a second connecting part, and an elastic support fixed in the accommodating cavity. The cover is movably connected to the body by the first connecting part and the second connecting part. The elastic support has a first elastic arm and a second elastic arm. The first elastic arm supports the cover. The second elastic arm has a snap-fit part locking an external insert inserted into the insertion slot at a preset position. The cover is movable relative to the body to have the second connecting part press and elastically deform the second elastic arm, driving the snap-fit part to move and unlock the external insert.

  • Publication number: 20240054378
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods and apparatuses for approximating a ground state or a Gibbs state of a k-local Hamiltonian using a quantum computer system. The procedure begins by providing a set of local generalised measurements corresponding to the terms of the k-local Hamiltonian. A set of data qudits is initialised into an initial state and a local generalised measurement is subsequently performed to perturb a subset of the data qudits from an initial state to a perturbed state. The perturbation is accepted or rejected based on a measurement outcome of the local generalised measurement. The perturbation and accept/reject steps are repeated unless or until a stopping condition is met. The result of the procedure is to provably drive the encoded Hamiltonian toward or even into a ground state or a Gibbs state, a useful starting point in many quantum algorithms, such as those relating to materials simulation.

  • Publication number: 20230131397
    Abstract: A connector includes a housing having a latch and a terminal mounted in the housing. The terminal has a locking hole with a locking hole front portion in a terminal insertion direction along which the terminal is inserted into the housing and a locking hole rear portion in the terminal insertion direction. A size of the locking hole front portion is larger than a size of the locking hole rear portion. The latch elastically protrudes into the locking hole to lock the terminal in the housing. The latch has a latch front portion in the terminal insertion direction and a latch rear portion in the terminal insertion direction. A size of the latch front portion is larger than a size of the latch rear portion. The size of the latch rear portion is smaller than the size of the locking hole front portion.

  • Publication number: 20230073193
    Abstract: The present invention provides a connecting terminal for connecting a wire, including: a body; a clip portion extending from both sides of the body and configured to hold a conductor of a wire; and a fixing part extending from both sides of the body, including: a clamping part configured to clamp an insulating layer of the wire; and a stopping part formed on the clamping part and configured to abut the terminal position assurance device to enable the connecting terminal to be fixed in the housing when the connecting terminal is mounted in the housing of the connecting assembly. Since the fixing part has both a clamping part for clamping the wire and a stopping part forming an appropriate height difference with the wire, the connecting terminal provided by the present invention becomes more compact and miniaturized.
