João Elmiro da Rocha Chaves has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20230422388
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for circuit board structures for component protection are described. A memory system may be implemented on a circuit board, where one or more memory devices may be attached to the circuit board. Components for accessing the one or more memory devices may also be attached to the circuit board. The circuit board may also include one or more structures extending from the circuit board that are configured to shield the one or more memory devices, the components for accessing the one or more memory devices, or both, from forces.

  • Publication number: 20230065633
    Abstract: Various embodiments described herein provide a label configured for thermal conductivity and configured to pass over an edge of a printed circuit board (PCB) and attached to both sides of the printed circuit board. The label can be used with a printed circuit board that is associated with a memory sub-system, such as a memory module (e.g., solid state drive, SSD module).

  • Publication number: 20220230700
    Abstract: A detection is made by a processing device allocated to a memory device test board of a distributed test platform that a memory sub-system has engaged with a memory device test resource of the memory device test board. A test is identified to be performed for a memory device of the memory sub-system. The test includes first instructions to be executed by a memory sub-system controller of the memory sub-system in performance of the test and second instructions to be executed by the processing device in performance of the test. The second instructions are to cause one or more test condition components of the memory device test resource to generate one or more test conditions to be applied to the memory device while the memory sub-system executes the first instructions. Responsive to a transmission of the first instructions to the memory sub-system controller, the second instructions are executed.

  • Patent number: 11328789
    Abstract: A test rack includes two or more memory device test boards where each memory device test boards includes two or more memory device test resources. Each of the two or more memory device test boards includes a separate processing device allocated to the memory device test resources of a corresponding memory device test boards. A processing device of a test board detects that a first memory sub-system has engaged with a first memory device test resource of the corresponding memory device test board. The processing device identifies a first test to be performed for a first memory device of the first memory sub-system, where the first test includes one or more first test instructions to be executed in performance of the first test. The processing device causes the one or more first test instructions to be transmitted to the first memory sub-system, where the first test is performed by the one or more first test instructions executing at the first memory sub-system.
