Abstract: A shielded SODIMM system for reducing RF emissions of a SODIMM connector is disclosed herein. SODIMM connector RFI presently interferes with connectivity and is also an obstacle for higher speed memory applications. The shielded SODIMM system includes a SODIMM connector that is at least partially housed by a SODIMM connector shield, to partially and/or substantially reduce or block RF emissions from the SODIMM connector. The SODIMM connector shield is at least partially conductive and is coupled to landing pads on a surface of a motherboard printed circuit board (“PCB”). The landing pads of the motherboard PCB that are coupled to the SODIMM connector shield are coupled to ground, which grounds the SODIMM connector shield. Grounding the SODIMM connector shield that at least partially houses the SODIMM connector reduces RF emissions from the SODIMM connector during information transfer operations.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a forklift. The forklift according to the present disclosure is controlled such that when a traveling speed reaches or becomes higher than a predetermined traveling speed, a flow rate of hydraulic oil to be provided to a steering unit is reduced. Therefore, in order to implement a desired direction change, a steering wheel needs to be rotated to a relatively larger degree than when the forklift travels at a low speed. That is, straight traveling performance may be improved by reducing sensitivity of a direction change of the forklift to an operation of the steering wheel.

Abstract: Described herein are techniques related to near field coupling and wireless power transfers. A mobile device may include an edge-emitting antenna that offers ultra slim, all-metallic chassis packaging option with no cutout, uses lesser area, has robust mechanical strength, and provides EMI/ESD protection. In one example, an inductor coil is wrapped around a magnetic core and a pair of conductive layers is configured to interpose the magnetic core and the inductor coil between them to expose an edge of the magnetic core. The inductor coil being operable in a transmit mode to generate a magnetic field in response to a current passing through it. The edge is configured to enhance outward radiation of the magnetic field. Based on simulation results, the edge-emitting antenna occupies less space and provides an acceptable level of performance for coupling coefficients compared to conventional antenna.

Abstract: Methods and systems may provide for generating a data signal based on a local clock signal and converting the local clock signal into a pseudorandom binary sequence (PRBS) signal. The data signal and the PRBS signal may be transferred from a transmitter to a receiver via a channel, wherein a recovered clock signal may be generated at the receiver based on the PRBS signal. Additionally, the data signal may be processed based on the recovered clock signal. In one example, the PRBS signal has a number of timing edges that is randomized and less than a number of timing edges in the local clock signal per period of time.
