  • Patent number: 11906380
    Abstract: The disclosed invention provides a bridge voltage inversion circuit for vacuum gauge and a pressure gauge sensor that includes the bridge voltage inversion circuit. The bridge voltage inversion circuit for a pressure gauge includes a reference capacitance, a sensor capacitance, and a transformer including a primary winding and a secondary winding that outputs a bridge voltage. The reference capacitor is connected to a first side of the secondary winding of the transformer, and the sensor capacitor is connected to a second side of the secondary winding of the transformer. The sensor capacitor senses and responds to a pressure, and a capacitance of the sensor capacitor is at a minimum when the pressure is at vacuum. The capacitance of the sensor capacitor at vacuum is less than a capacitance of the reference capacitor.

  • Patent number: 11903223
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for thin film transistors and related fabrication techniques are described. The thin film transistors may access two or more decks of memory cells disposed in a cross-point architecture. The fabrication techniques may use one or more patterns of vias formed at a top layer of a composite stack, which may facilitate building the thin film transistors within the composite stack while using a reduced number of processing steps. Different configurations of the thin film transistors may be built using the fabrication techniques by utilizing different groups of the vias. Further, circuits and components of a memory device (e.g., decoder circuitry, interconnects between aspects of one or more memory arrays) may be constructed using the thin film transistors as described herein along with related via-based fabrication techniques.

  • Patent number: 11460336
    Abstract: A method of providing electrical energy to a dewar containing a cryogenic liquid including introducing an insulated heat pipe, with a distal end and a proximal end, into a cryogenic dewar comprising an exterior surface. And providing a Seebeck module, with a cold junction and a hot junction. The distal end is in thermodynamic contact with a cryogenic fluid and the proximal is thermodynamically connected to the cold junction. The hot junction is thermodynamically connected to the exterior surface of the dewar, thereby producing an electrical flow in the Seebeck module. A level probe may be calibrated by taking a first capacitance reading with the dewar full, and a second capacitance reading when the cryogenic liquid level is within a calibration gap. The level probe is calibrated by utilizing the first capacitance reading and the second capacitance reading.

  • Patent number: 11158259
    Abstract: An apparatus receives current image frame data and data relating to at least one previous image frame for an electronic display. One or more parameters related to hysteresis of transistors in the electronic display are sensed. A correlation device, such as a look-up table, receives the sensed parameter or parameters and the data relating to one or more image frames, and uses this information, at least in part, to output an appropriate compensation signal for the current image frame data. The compensated current image frame data may then be supplied to the electronic display to reduce or eliminate the effects of hysteresis on the displayed image.
