Patent number: 12101611Abstract: A clocking technique for reducing the power of PDM microphones in dual microphone systems is disclosed. A clock for a conventional PDM microphone (PDMCLK) is provided by another source. PDM microphones send serial data (PDMDAT) on the rising (“Right”) or falling (“Left”) edge of the PDMCLK clock, depending on how the microphone is configured. In a dual PDM microphone configuration, the microphones alternate sending data on the rising edges (transitions to logic-1) and falling edges (transitions to logic-0) of PDMCLK. Typically, Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) logic is used to transmit or drive the clock signal to the microphones. CMOS drivers consume power primarily when they transition from a logic-0 to a logic-1 or from a logic-1 to a logic-0. Thus, a free-running clock signal will produce the highest CMOS power consumption.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2022Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: SYNTIANTInventors: Joseph Cordaro, David Garrett

Patent number: 12042739Abstract: A method of gradually revealing an image using cube puzzles is provided. A first image is divided into a plurality of blocks. Each block can have one or more arbitrary colors. A second image is then generated from the first image where each block of the second image corresponds to one or more blocks of the first image. The blocks of the second image are unicolor blocks with colors that are selected from one of the six colors of a cube puzzle. Groups of adjacent blocks of the second image with the same number of rows and columns as the sides of the cube puzzles are assigned to participants to match to the color of the blocks on the sides of their cube puzzles. Once each participant matches the colors of an assigned region on a side of the corresponding cube puzzle, the matched region is reveled to all participants.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2022Date of Patent: July 23, 2024Assignee: 22nd Solutions, LLCInventors: Mehdi Hatamian, David Garrett, Marcy Garrett

Publication number: 20240039555Abstract: An encoding technique for reducing the power of PDM microphones is disclosed. Digital MEMS microphones utilize a modulation technique called Pulse Density Modulation (PDM), where a single data line (PDMDAT) is used to convey the digital information from the microphone source to a receiver. A characteristic of PDM is that a low noise signal will produce the most transitions, a zero signal will produce an alternating bitstream of logic-1s and logic-0s, and low noise bitstreams will be rich in singleton and doubleton 1s/0s. Typically, CMOS drivers transmit the PDM bitstream signal. CMOS drivers consume power primarily when they transition, so a bitstream rich in singletons and doubletons will increase power consumption. Differential encoding with an XNOR function is used as a singleton-suppression encoder, and a differential encoding with an XOR function is used as a doubleton-suppression encoder.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2022Publication date: February 1, 2024Inventors: Joseph Cordaro, David Garrett
