  • Patent number: 10265601
    Abstract: The batting cage comprises a portable backstop and a batting tee. The portable backstop may be assembled at a practice field from a plurality of frame pole sections, elbows, braces, and mesh screen covering. The frame pole sections assemble into uprights, crossbars, and sidebars that form a frame which the mesh screen covering is stretched over. The batting tee is placed in front of the portable backstop. A ball is placed on a post rising from the batting tee base and the ball is hit into the backstop by a batter. The backstop restricts the ball's travel. The height, forward position, and lateral position of the post are adjustable. An optional target on the rear wall of the portable backstop provides an aiming point for a perfectly hit ball.

  • Patent number: 9753481
    Abstract: A method and system for generating a reference voltage are disclosed. The reference voltage is generated by generating a voltage VRIGHT using a first transistor and generating a voltage VBIAS using a second transistor. The gates of the two transistors are connected to a common node VREF, but the loads of the transistors have different resistances. At least one differential pair is used to detect a difference between voltages VRIGHT and VBIAS. VREF is forced to a value at which the source-drain currents in each of the transistors is equal. The transistors sued are NMOS transistors.

  • Patent number: 9081042
    Abstract: A system for determining the logic state of a resistive memory cell element, for example an MRAM resistive cell element. The system includes a controlled voltage supply, an electronic charge reservoir, a current source, and a pulse counter. The controlled voltage supply is connected to the resistive memory cell element to maintain a constant voltage across the resistive element. The charge reservoir is connected to the voltage supply to provide a current through the resistive element. The current source is connected to the charge reservoir to repeatedly supply a pulse of current to recharge the reservoir upon depletion of electronic charge from the reservoir, and the pulse counter provides a count of the number of pulses supplied by the current source over a predetermined time. The count represents a logic state of the memory cell element.
