  • Publication number: 20240142534
    Abstract: Various embodiments and approaches are described to minimize degradation of respective modules combined to form a battery pack onboard an electric vehicle (EV). Systems and components are presented to determine a respective operational state of the modules, and based thereon, a first subset of modules can be selected to provision power to various EV components while a second subset of modules can be deselected. Module selection can be based upon a threshold operating condition. A visual representation of the modules and their respective operational state can be presented, in conjunction with one or more alarms and recommended corrective operations. Artificial intelligence methods can be utilized to determine an operational state of a module(s). A module can be scheduled for replacement. Limiting degradation to a first module can minimize degradation of a second module. The various components can be stored in a memory and executed by a processor.

  • Publication number: 20240141385
    Abstract: This invention provides methods and systems for enhancement of protein production from mammalian cell lines in a drug inducible manner. The methods described herein can be used to generate a protein production cell line wherein the gene coding the protein product of interest is inserted into specific safe harbor loci (SHL) within the cell's genome and the gene copy number is induced to amplify by the use of an antibiotic inducer. The method enables for the conditional activation of the drug inducible transposase. The drug inducible gene amplification method described herein effectively functions as a molecular dial: combining drug-inducible homologous recombination and conditional gene activation to fine-tune gene amplification in mammalian systems.

  • Publication number: 20240142684
    Abstract: An electronic device such as a wristwatch may be provided with conductive structures. The conductive structures may include a sensor electrode for an electrocardiogram (ECG) sensor. A coating may be disposed on the sensor electrode to reflect particular wavelengths of visible light so that the sensor electrode exhibits a desired color. The coating may include adhesion and transition layers on the sensor electrode, an opaque coloring layer on the adhesion and transition layers, and a thin-film interference filter on the opaque coloring layer. The thin-film interference filter may have an uppermost diamond-like carbon (DLC) layer. The DLC layer may contribute to the color response of the coating while concurrently minimizing noise in ECG waveforms gathered by the ECG sensor using the sensor electrode.

  • Publication number: 20240143881
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a DFT (Design for test) methodology to integrate synchronous double-clock latches to synchronize data transferring between two asynchronous clock domains, where the conventional lockup-latches (asynchronous latches) are automatically inserted to connect/combine the two independent asynchronous DFT chains for a more compacted solution. If the asynchronous latches are replaced by the synchronous double-clock ones, the static timing analysis (STA) will check both ends of the latches, therefore, the full combined chain is safe from the setup-hold issues. This method utilizes the automatic flow of asynchronous latches insertion to connect independent DFT chains. Then these conventional latches are replaced by synchronous ones. Both the synthesis, the physical implementation flows in the DFT design and the automatic-test pattern generation (ATPG) scheme have been modified to match these replacements.
