  • Patent number: 11476821
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus is described. The apparatus includes a circuit element configured to output a signal comprising a modulated frequency component. The apparatus also includes a filter arrangement comprising first, second and third notch filter arrangements, wherein each of the first and second notch filter arrangements comprise a first series inductor, and a series shunt configuration comprising a second inductor and a capacitor coupled in series and the third notch filter arrangement comprises a series inductor and a shunt capacitor, wherein each of the notch filter arrangements are configured to generate a notch in a frequency response to attenuate the output signal at a frequency of the modulated frequency component.

  • Patent number: 10931242
    Abstract: An error amplifier for a pulse width modulation circuit is described. The amplifier includes an operational amplifier configured as an integrator and a feedback loop coupled between a signal output of the operational amplifier and an inverting input of the operational amplifier. The feedback loop comprises a feedback capacitor coupled to the signal output, a feedback resistor coupled to the feedback capacitor, and an integrator resistor coupled to the feedback resistor and the inverting input of the operational amplifier. A junction between the feedback resistor and the integrator resistor is configured to receive an input signal and a junction between the feedback capacitor and the feedback resistor is configured to receive a feedback signal from the pulse width modulation circuit.

  • Patent number: 8280635
    Abstract: Data about operation of a well for extracting a product from the subterranean reservoir and at least one of a characteristic of a subterranean reservoir or operation of a processing and transport system upstream of a point of sale is received. A corrective action can be automatically initiated on at least one of the well or the processing and transport system in response to a difference between the received data and a specified operational objective. An adjustment to a model of the reservoir, the well, and the processing and transporting system can be automatically initiated in response to the received data.
