  • Patent number: 11962162
    Abstract: An accessory device is disclosed. The accessory device may include multiple pockets, or sleeves, designed to carry items, such as an electronic device and a user's personal items (e.g., credits cards, cash, etc.). The accessory device also includes a magnet embedded in a back section, with the magnet designed to align an inductive charging mechanism that can charge the electronic device's battery when the electronic device is positioned within the accessory device. To improve charging efficiency, the back section also includes a structural layer designed to keep the back section flat when the electronic device is positioned within the accessory device. The structural layer can hide/obscure the magnet and other structures. Also, the accessory device includes a wireless communication circuit that can communicate with a corresponding wireless communication circuit in the electronic device, and provide information (e.g., openings and dimensional information of the accessory device) to the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 6693826
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for characterizing and sensing the stability of a magnetic memory element. The method comprises setting a reference threshold, reading the state signal of the memory element, and comparing the magnitude of the state signal to the reference threshold, such that a state signal exceeding the reference threshold is considered stable. The apparatus comprises a reference generator having an output that is compared, in a windowed comparator, to the state signal magnitude, such that an output signal of the windowed comparator can be used to characterize the stability of the memory element.
