Patent number: 10949178Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques for generating application programming interface (API) code for an application. The method generally includes receiving information indicating a set of queries invoked within an application. A set of nodes in a graph projection of the API accessed by queries in the set of queries is identified by traversing the graph projection of the API for each query in the set of queries. A subgraph projection of the API including the identified set of nodes is identified, and code implementing operations associated with the identified set of nodes is generated from the generated subgraph projection of the API. The generated code is deployed for use with the application.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2019Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: INTUIT INC.Inventor: Philip Edward Russell

Patent number: 10933582Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods are directed to the use of vapor phase change in binder jetting processes for forming three-dimensional objects. In general, a vapor of a first fluid may be directed to a layer of a powder spread across a build volume. The vapor may condense to reduce mobility of the particles of the powder of the layer. For example, the condensing vapor may reduce the likelihood of particle ejection from the layer and, thus, may reduce the likelihood of clogging or otherwise degrading a printhead used to jet a second fluid (e.g., a binder) to the layer. Further, or instead, the condensing vapor may increase the density of the powder in the layer which, when repeated over a plurality of layers forming a three-dimensional object, may reduce the likelihood of slumping of the part during sintering.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2019Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: Desktop Metal, Inc.Inventors: Emanuel Michael Sachs, George Hudelson, Paul A. Hoisington, Christopher Benjamin Renner, Keith Roy Vaillancourt, Edward Russell Moynihan

Patent number: 9385687Abstract: RF attenuator circuitry includes an RF attenuator and a control system. The RF attenuator is configured to provide an attenuation response between an input node and an output node. The control system is coupled to the RF attenuator and configured to adjust one or more control signals provided to the RF attenuator based on either the temperature of the circuitry or an externally applied test signal provided to the control system. The control signals are provided such that the attenuation response of the RF attenuator is substantially linear-in-dB with respect to either the temperature or the test signal provided to the control system. Because the control system is configured to adjust the control signals based either on a temperature of the circuitry or the test signal, the response of the RF attenuator can be easily and quickly tested to ensure linear-in-dB operation thereof.Type: GrantFiled: March 16, 2015Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: RF Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Alan Leon Ellis, Edward Russell Franzwa
