Patent number: 11728652Abstract: A regulation process of an electrical distribution network that comprises a main power source, among one or more electrical sources, configured to impose on the network the voltage and frequency of a power circulating on the network to which one or more loads are connected. The process includes, in the event of a variation of one of the frequency or the voltage detected on the network, during a primary regulation, one adjustment step by the main source of the other between the frequency and the voltage, to maintain constant the ratio voltage/frequency.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2019Date of Patent: August 15, 2023Assignees: Schneider Electric Industries SAS, Institut Polytechnique de GrenobleInventors: Lauric Garbuio, Kevin Marojahan Banjar Nahor, Vincent Debusscherer, Thi-Thu-Ha Pham, Nouredine Hadjsaid

Patent number: 11552622Abstract: A master-slave flip-flop includes a first latch, a second latch and a tristate driver. The first latch has a combined input/output that is coupled with a common node, a pm output, and an nm output. The tristate driver has pm and nm inputs coupled with the pm and nm outputs of the first latch, and a tristate output coupled with the common node. A pm input signal prevents the tristate driver from pulling the common node high, and an nm input signal prevents the tristate driver from pulling the common node low. The second latch is directly coupled with the common node. The first latch generates an nm signal and a pm signal in response to a signal on the first latch clk input and a state of the common node, wherein the pm signal and the nm signal have opposite polarities when the signal on the first latch clk input has a first value, and equal polarities when the signal on the first latch clk input has a second value.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2022Date of Patent: January 10, 2023Assignee: SambaNova Systems, Inc.Inventors: Ha Pham, Jinuk Shin, Yukio Otaguro

Patent number: 10202762Abstract: Window or curtain wall assemblies and concealed window fastening assemblies are disclosed. Each window panel includes two layers of glass or other material separated by a spacing mullion, which lines the perimeter of the window panel to create a sealed chamber. The depth of the sealed chamber between the two layers is variable to accommodate either thermal requirements, vertical and horizontal structural loads, or both. The chamber reduces heat loss due to convection allowing it to outperform current double or triple glazing window walls. Each chamber can connect through tubes to allow for air or gas transfer to enhance thermal performance and create the potential for other functional and aesthetic effects. When the window panels are assembled, the latching mechanism structurally unifies each panel to become a single monolithic surface that can also account for thermal expansion.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2015Date of Patent: February 12, 2019Assignee: New Jersey Institute of TechnologyInventors: Darius Sollohub, Ha Pham

Patent number: 9841325Abstract: Embodiments of a temperature sensing apparatus are disclosed. The apparatus may include a voltage generator and circuitry. The voltage generator may generate a first voltage level and a second voltage level dependent on an operating temperature. In response to a given change in the operating temperature, the first and second voltage levels may change, with the second voltage level changing by a different amount than the first voltage level. The voltage generator may generate a third voltage level. The circuitry may measure the first voltage level, the second voltage level, and the third voltage level, and may calculate the operating temperature dependent on a ratio of a difference between the first voltage level and the second voltage level and the third voltage level.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2014Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Changku Hwang, Ha Pham, Daisy Jian, Sebastian Turullols

Patent number: 9257972Abstract: A flip-flop circuit is disclosed. The flip-flop circuit includes pull-up and pull-down circuits each coupled to a data input and configured to be activated responsive to a clock signal transition from a first phase to a second phase, depending on the input data. A write circuit is configured to write data into a latch of the flip-flop responsive to activation of one of the pull-up and pull-down circuits. An output driver circuit includes a dynamic portion and a static portion, with the dynamic portion being activated responsive to activation of one of the pull-up and pull-down circuits. Activation of the dynamic portion may occur concurrently with writing of the data into the latch. The output driver circuit also includes a static portion.

Patent number: 4226138Abstract: A control arrangement with a single lever pivoting successively about two articulation axes. The lever is articulated on a fixed plate by the intermediary of at least one link. The link is articulated on the plate at a fixed axis while the lever is articulated on the link at an axis movable with respect to the plate and offset from the fixed axis. In this way, after the lever-link assembly has pivoted around the fixed axis, the link comes up against a stop on the plate so that the movable axis becomes fixed in its turn and the lever continues its travel pivoting about this axis.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 1978Date of Patent: October 7, 1980Assignee: Regie Nationale des Usines RenaultInventor: Pascal Ha-Pham
