Publication number: 20200310798Abstract: An integrated circuit with support for memory atomicity comprises a processor core. The processor core comprises a data cache unit (DCU), a store buffer (SB), a retirement unit, and memory atomicity facilities. The memory atomicity facilities are configured, when engaged, to (a) add an SB entry to the SB, in response to the processor core executing a store instruction that is part of an atomic region of code; (b) cause the SB entry to become senior, in response to the retirement unit retiring the store instruction; and (c) cause the SB entry to become walk enabled, in response to the retirement unit committing a transaction associated with the atomic region. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 28, 2019Publication date: October 1, 2020Inventors: Manjunath Shevgoor, Mark Joseph Dechene, Vineeth Mekkat, Jason Michael Agron, Zhongying Zhang

Patent number: 7202576Abstract: One embodiment of the invention provides a UPS including a precharge circuit and a battery pack sensor electrically coupled to the precharge circuit. The sensor senses the presence of an extra battery pack. The precharge circuit includes: a first precharge contact; a capacitor having first and second leads, the first lead electrically coupled to the first contact; a second precharge contact electrically coupled to the second lead of the capacitor; a current limiting circuit having first and second leads, the first lead of the current limiting circuit electrically coupled to the first lead of the capacitor; and a third precharge contact electrically coupled to the second lead of the current limiting circuit. The UPS can further include an enclosure having a housing and a battery connector integral to the housing, the battery connector adapted to receive the first, second and third precharge contacts.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2003Date of Patent: April 10, 2007Assignee: American Power Conversion CorporationInventors: Joseph Dechene, Michael Manganese, Namwook Paik, Andrew Chase, Michael Lysik
