Patent number: 10528110Abstract: A method in a wireless communication device for diagnosing power supply failure in the wireless communication device is provided. The wireless communication device detects (301) an indication of power supply failure in the wireless communication device. When the indication of the power supply failure further indicates a non-active state of the wireless communication device or when the wireless communication device enters an error handling mode, the wireless communication device collects (302) diagnostic data from the PMU by means of a diagnostic engine (215) in the PMU. The wireless communication device then stores (303) the collected diagnostic data to a memory in the PMU. The data is related to the event resulting in the non-active state and/or to the latest event in a system of the wireless communication device or when the wireless communication device enters an error handling mode.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2014Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: TELEFONAKTIEBOLAGET LM ERICSSON (PUBL)Inventors: Joni Jäntti, Joakim Andersson, Markus Littow, Tarmo Ruotsalainen, Saila Tammelin

Patent number: 8568572Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for very low pressure high powered magnetron sputtering of a coating onto a substrate. By the method of this invention, both substrate and coating target material are placed into an evacuable chamber, and the chamber pumped to vacuum. Thereafter a series of high impulse voltage pulses are applied to the target. Nearly simultaneously with each pulse, in one embodiment, a small cathodic arc source of the same material as the target is pulsed, triggering a plasma plume proximate to the surface of the target to thereby initiate the magnetron sputtering process. In another embodiment the plasma plume is generated using a pulsed laser aimed to strike an ablation target material positioned near the magnetron target surface.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2010Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Andre Anders, Joakim Andersson
