Abstract: A system can form a part in an initial geometry into a desired geometry. The system may include a roller tool and a robot arm that: (a) presses the roller tool onto a surface of the part and (b) moves the pressed roller tool along the surface of the part to form the desired geometry. The roller tool includes a ball and a support with a socket that receives the ball and enables the ball to rotate in the socket. The support may include a channel configured to carry fluid through the support toward the ball or away from the ball. The socket may deform such that contact area of the ball with the socket increases in response to the ball being pressed onto the surface above a threshold pressure.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems for making prepregs are disclosed. A method may include depositing a resin material onto a surface of a fiber bed and forming a number of discrete resin regions thereon. A distance between the resin regions may be measured to provide desired exposed portions of the surface to facilitate permeation of air through the exposed portions of the surface in a direction perpendicular to a plane of the fiber bed during a curing process of the prepreg.

Abstract: Through-thickness permeable prepregs comprise a fiber bed and a plurality of discrete resin regions on a surface of the fiber bed separated by exposed fiber bed surface regions. Prepreg assemblies for processing such prepregs comprise an air permeable resin barrier material disposed over a surface of the prepreg opposite a forming tool. The air permeable resin barrier material is permeable to air or gas passing from the prepreg and is impermeable to resin passing from the prepreg. During processing, the prepreg assembly is subjected to a vacuum and elevated temperature to cure the resin and form a composite part. During processing, the air permeable resin barrier material prevents unwanted resin bleed from the prepreg, causing resin pressure in the prepreg to be maintained that reduces or eliminates unwanted formation or growth of internal voids to provide a composite part having a reduced degree of internal voids and pores.

Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for an integrated clock gate (ICG) to selectively output a clock signal, and to provide frequency division functionality. In an embodiment, an ICG circuit comprises first circuitry which is coupled to receive a first clock signal, and second circuitry which is coupled to receive a control signal. The first circuitry provides a single edge triggered flip-flop functionality, and is coupled to communicate a feedback signal which the first circuitry is further coupled to receive. Based on the control signal and the feedback signal, the second circuitry performs an exclusive OR (XOR) operation to selectively enable the first circuitry to generate a second clock signal based on the first clock signal. In another embodiment, a frequency of the second clock signal is substantially equal to one half of a frequency of the first clock signal.

Adjacent interconnect features may comprise a plurality of first interconnect lines with spaces therebetween. A dielectric material is over the first interconnect lines and within the spaces between the first interconnect lines. Resultant topography in the dielectric material defines a plurality of trenches between the first interconnect lines. The adjacent interconnect features further comprise a plurality of second interconnect lines interdigitated with the first interconnect lines that occupy at least a portion of the trenches between individual ones of the first interconnect lines.

Abstract: A fused dot-product multiply-accumulate (MAC) circuit may support variable precisions of floating-point data elements to perform computations (e.g., MAC operations) in deep learning operations. An operation mode of the circuit may be selected based on the precision of an input element. The operation mode may be a FP16 mode or a FP8 mode. In the FP8 mode, product exponents may be computed based on exponents of floating-point input elements. A maximum exponent may be selected from the one or more product exponents. A global maximum exponent may be selected from a plurality of maximum exponents. A product mantissa may be computed and aligned with another product mantissa based on a difference between the global maximum exponent and a corresponding maximum exponent. An adder tree may accumulate the aligned product mantissas and compute a partial sum mantissa. The partial sum mantissa may be normalized using the global maximum exponent.
