Publication number: 20240420775Abstract: A memory apparatus and method of operation are provided. The apparatus includes memory cells configured to retain a threshold voltage corresponding to one of a plurality of data states. The memory cells are disposed in memory holes grouped in blocks. A control means is configured to determine an amount of the memory cells of one of the blocks that are programmed during at least one read operation. The control means adjusts at least one read parameter based on the amount of the memory cells of the one of the blocks that are programmed. The control means is also configured to utilize the adjusted at least one read parameter while reading the memory cells to determine if the memory cells have the threshold voltage above one or more read levels associated with each of the plurality of data states in the at least one read operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 4, 2023Publication date: December 19, 2024Applicant: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Albert Chen, Xiang Yang, Eric Fu, Jiahui Fu

Publication number: 20240420773Abstract: An apparatus comprising a set of memory cells and a control circuit coupled to the set of memory cells is disclosed. The control circuit is configured to: transition a wordline voltage of a wordline associated with a target memory cell of the set of memory cells from a first wordline voltage level to a second wordline voltage level; subsequent to transitioning the wordline voltage to the second wordline voltage level, ramp down a bitline voltage of a bitline associated with the target memory cell from a first bitline voltage level to a second bitline voltage level; and prior to sensing a state of the memory cell, ramp up the bitline voltage from the second bitline voltage level to the first bitline voltage level.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 3, 2023Publication date: December 19, 2024Applicant: Western Digital Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Xiang Yang, Eric Fu, Albert Chen, Jonathan Huynh

Patent number: 10786691Abstract: The present invention relates to improvements to powered air purifying respirators (PAPR). PAPR are known generally for use in polluted environments. A typical PAPR comprises a powered impellor arranged to draw air from the atmosphere, a filter element and a mask to provide the filtered and pressurized air to the user. Embodiments of the present invention place a generator unit, comprising a filter and impellor for pressurizing the air, behind the head of the user, and include components for improving delivery of the air to the user and improving its quality.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2012Date of Patent: September 29, 2020Assignee: CLEANSPACE IP PTY LTDInventors: Dan Kao, Xiaoyi (Eric) Fu, Alexander Virr, John Michael Snow, Damian Charles Johnson

Patent number: 9087107Abstract: A computing device may receive a request for a rank-specific search link corresponding to a particular search result within a list of search results. The computing device may identify one or more search parameters used by a search engine to generate the list of search results, and identify a search result rank position of the particular search result in the list of search results. The computing device may create a rank-specific search link associated with the one or more search parameters corresponding to the list of search results and the search result rank position corresponding to the particular search result. The computing device may provide the rank-specific search link in accordance with the request. Selection of the rank-specific search link may cause information, to be presented, relating to a document to the search parameters and corresponding to the search result rank position.Type: GrantFiled: June 14, 2012Date of Patent: July 21, 2015Assignee: Google Inc.Inventor: John Eric Fu

Publication number: 20080016219Abstract: A resource request is received at a computer application, wherein the resource request has a resource specification that determines multiple resources for fulfillment. The received resource specification is evaluated, a plurality of computer resources are identified for processing of the resource request in accordance with the evaluated resource specification, and an order of processing the request among the identified computer resources is identified for fulfillment of the resource request. The resource request itself can determine network locations at which the requested resource can be found. In the case of a Web browser user application that is configured to process such a conditional resource request, the request comprises a conditional uniform resource locator (C-URL) that describes one or more network locations at which a single resource may be accessed.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 11, 2007Publication date: January 17, 2008Applicant: Medio Systems, Inc.Inventors: Michael Libes, Eric Fu
