  • Publication number: 20250117441
    Abstract: A method for performing a convolution is described. The method includes providing an activation to a general purpose (GP) processor. The GP processor is coupled with compute engines. Each of the compute engines includes a compute-in-memory (CIM) hardware module. The CIM hardware module stores weights corresponding to a kernel and is configured to perform vector-matrix multiplications (VMMs) for the kernel. The method also includes performing, by the GP processor or at least one of the compute engines, a quantization of the activation to provide a quantized activation. The compute engine(s) perform the VMMs for the quantized activation and the kernel to provide a product. Dequantization of the product is performed by the GP processor or the compute engine(s).

  • Publication number: 20250028946
    Abstract: A method is described. The method includes profiling a learning network. The learning network includes compute tile(s) and a model. A compute tile includes compute engines and a general-purpose (GP) processor. Each compute engine includes a compute-in-memory (CIM) hardware module. The model includes convolutions and activation functions. The convolutions correspond to the compute engines. The method also includes determining, based on the profiling, a reschedule operation for a convolution of the convolutions. The reschedule operation provides multiple tensors based on an input tensor for the convolution. The tensors are configured to undergo at least a portion of the convolution in accordance with a temporal distribution.

  • Patent number: 11480633
    Abstract: A compass includes a magnetic sensing element in the form of a coil surrounding magnetic material. Electric current is supplied to the coil in opposite directions, depending on the state of switches operated at times T0, for a first direction, and T5, for a reverse current direction. A voltmeter measures voltages across the coil, namely at least V1 at time T1, after T0, and V2 at time T2, after T5, with T1?T0=T2?T5=predetermined ?T. A processor indicates V1?V2, the magnitude and sign of which indicate the strength and direction of the earth's magnetic field respectively.

  • Patent number: 10809098
    Abstract: A pulse-induction displacement transducer comprising at least one coil component (100,150), at least one target (112,174), and pulse induction circuitry (102,152} constructed and arranged to cause a pulse of electrical current to pass through the said at least one coil component (100,150). The pulse ends abruptly. Subsequently, the electrical current passing through the said at least one coil component (100,150), or the voltage across it, is measured at a time when any electrical current through or voltage across the said at least one coil component (100, 150) would have died away in. the absence of a target. This provides an indication of the relative position between the target (112,174) and the said at least one coil component (100, 150). The said at least one coil component (100,150) comprises a first terminal portion (108,158), a first coil part (104,152) connected directly or indirectly to the said first terminal portion (108,158) and wound in one sense.
