Abstract: Described are on-die termination (ODT) systems and methods that facilitate high-speed communication between a transmitter die and a receiver die interconnected via one or more signal transmission lines. An ODT control system in accordance with one embodiment calibrates and maintains the termination resistances for the signal transmission lines. The ODT control system derives a number of calibration currents from precision voltage and resistance references and distributes the reference currents to a number of transmitters. Each transmitter then derives an ODT calibration signal using the respective reference current and another precision resistor, and then employs the calibration signal to calibrate local termination elements. Distributing calibrated currents provides excellent noise immunity, while limiting the requisite number of external voltage references reduces cost.

Abstract: A system for dispensing product includes a track support, the track support comprising a one-piece frame and a roller assembly slidably engaged with the one-piece frame, the roller assembly including a first lobed roller and a second lobed roller. The system further includes a valve assembly attached to a base portion of the one-piece frame, wherein a flexible product filled bag is retainable between the roller assembly and wherein the roller assembly translates down the track support to force the product toward the valve assembly.

Abstract: A dispenser includes a container including a containment portion and a handle portion; and a pump assembly received in the containment portion. The assembly includes a rod including a first knife blade receptacle, a cylinder including a second knife blade, a piston movable within the cylinder having a first knife blade and a valve having second knife blade receptacle. When the valve is open, the first knife blade engages with the first knife blade receptacle, and when the valve is closed the second knife blade engages with the second knife blade receptacle.
