Abstract: A delay circuit is coupled to a memory device. At least a portion of the delay circuit is disposed in one or more memory banks on one or more memory chips of the memory device. The delay circuit is configured to calibrate an asynchronous signal received at each of the one or more memory banks so that the calibrated asynchronous signal has a common timing relationship with a respective internal command signal received at the corresponding memory bank for all of the one or more memory banks on the memory device. The calibrated asynchronous signals are used in various internal test operations to improve testing accuracy.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a TM control circuit that is configured to receive address information corresponding to a TM function and compare the address information with an authorized TM list stored in a memory of the apparatus to determine if there is a match. If there is a match, a latch load signal pulse is output. A TM latch circuit programs one or more latches based on the address information and based on the latch load signal pulse. The TM latch circuit decodes information in the one or more latches and, based on the decoded information, outputs a test mode signal to turn on test mode operations in circuits associated with the TM function. The apparatus includes a plurality of TM functions for testing various features of the apparatus and the authorized TM list identifies which of the plurality of TM functions has been authorized for customer use.

Abstract: An electronic device includes multiple memory elements including multiple redundant memory elements. The electronic device also includes repair circuitry configured to remap data to the multiple memory elements when a failure occurs. The repair circuitry includes multiple fuse latches configured to implement the remapping. The repair circuitry also includes latch testing circuitry configured to test functionality of the multiple fuse latches. The latch testing circuitry includes selection circuitry configured to enable selection of a first set of fuse latches of the multiple fuse latches for a test separate from a second set of fuse latches of the multiple fuse latches that are unselected by the selection circuitry.

Abstract: Provided herein are devices or connectors for looping a cord, for example, a headset cord. The device comprises a flexible hollow connector having a body and a head disposed on the body such that a single hollow core is formed within the body and head. A slit or opening into the hollow core extends from the head along at least part of the length of the hollow body. Also provided are systems for looping the cord comprising the connectors described herein, a flexible sleeve having the connector disposed in one end of the sleeve and a headset cord disposed within the flexible sleeve such that the earbud end of the cord pass through the device and depend therefrom and the phono plug end of the cord extend from the other end of the sleeve to be inserted into the connector.

Abstract: Apparatus and method according to which a line extends through a sleeve so that a first amount of the line is disposed within the sleeve. After stretching and permitting the sleeve to retract, a second amount of the line is disposed within the sleeve, with the second amount being greater than the first amount.

Abstract: A notepad and writing instrument holder, particularly adapted for mounting on a surface within the interior of an automobile, for example, includes one piece construction comprising a molded plastic structure with first and second members which are hinged together along a living hinge portion. One of the members nests within the other such that opposed side panels of each member cooperate to retain the two members in a fixed position relative to each other to provide a writing surface for a notepad which is adjustable to suit the writer's needs and position relative to the notepad holder. Ratchet teeth formed on one member cooperate with detent members formed on the other member. The notepad holder may be injection molded in a generally flat planar configuration and the two members are formed by folding circular sector shaped side panels of each member with respect to center panels of each member into their working positions.

Abstract: A garment hanger suitable for hanging garments in an automobile. The hanger has a generally triangular open loop body and is adapted to be mounted on a window or an exit handle of an automobile. The garment hanger preferably has a plurality of dividers for supporting one or more garment hangers between adjacent dividers.
