Patent number: 11971782Abstract: Systems and methods for a controller including controller memory and logic are presented herein. The logic is configured to control access to a persistent storage media and, in response to one or more commands, the logic determines an intermediate parity value based on a first parity calculation, and using the intermediate parity value determines a final parity value based on the intermediate parity value and a second parity calculation. Determining the intermediate parity value includes sending a uni-directional command to read an old data value from an address indicated in the uni-directional command, perform an exclusive-or operation on the old data value and a new data value indicated in the uni-directional command to determine the intermediate parity value and store, in the persistent storage media, the intermediate parity value at a location associated to an index indicated in the uni-directional command.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2020Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: SK Hynix NAND Product Solutions Corp.Inventors: Sanjeev Trika, Gregory Tucker, James Harris, Jonathan Hughes, Piotr Wysocki, Gang Cao, Qihua Dai, Benjamin Walker, Ziye Yang, Xiaodong Liu, Changpeng Liu, Jackson Ellis

Patent number: 11318500Abstract: The composition of articles can be identified using luminescent codes printed or coated onto the articles (or labels on the articles) by means of an ink which contains long persistence luminescent materials. Radiation is used to excite the luminescent materials and this is then extinguished before the article passes beneath a spectrometer. An infrared beam then strikes the article in order to stimulate emission from the long persistence luminescent materials, via a detrapping mechanism, and the spectrometer detects the emission in order to identify the article.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2018Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Inventors: Paul Gregory Harris, George Robert Fern, Jack Silver

Patent number: 11309880Abstract: Embodiments described herein provides a low-complexity solution and current protection for a current driver that provide current pulses to pyrotechnic initiators. The current drivers include current limiters that prevent high current transients during a current pulse. Further, a duration of the current pulse is controlled based on a thermal limit of the current driver to prevent thermal damage to the current driver. One embodiment comprises an apparatus that includes a control circuit and a current driver. The current driver is electrically couplable to a pyrotechnic initiator. The current driver includes a power switch circuit electrically coupled to a supply rail that supplies a current to a high side of the pyrotechnic initiator in response to receiving a drive signal from the control circuit.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2017Date of Patent: April 19, 2022Assignee: The Boeing CompanyInventors: Gregory Harris Smith, Kenneth A.

Patent number: 9333417Abstract: A cooperative tile game played on a surface and having bifurcated tiles formed of conjoined hexagons each having an indicia of value. Play is initiated by selecting and placing one or more tiles on the surface in a three-tile triangular initial configuration. Players first exchange tiles from their hand with those in the initial configuration to achieve a predetermined set of tiles in the initial configuration. Subsequent rounds begin with a tile from the previous round. During play tiles are placed in turn such that at least one edge of a hexagonal portions is adjacent to an edge of a hexagonal portion of a previously placed tile having the same indicia of value and such that no edge of is adjacent to a side having a different indicia of value. Play proceeds until all playable tiles are placed. The value of waste tiles is subtracted from the value of created assets to achieve a score. All players achieve the same score.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2012Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Inventor: Paul Gregory Harris
