  • Publication number: 20250226895
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for receiver decision feedback equalization calibration are described. A memory system may support implementing respective decision feedback equalization (DFE) values at respective receivers using interpolation logic. For example, a calibration circuit may generate and store a quantity of candidate voltage values corresponding to the application of different DFE values at the receivers. The memory system may use the interpolation logic to generate (e.g., interpolate, generate) respective voltage values corresponding to a DFE value for application at a respective receiver based on the stored candidate voltage values. The interpolation logic may output the voltage values via a serial bus to each receiver, and each receiver may apply, to respectively received data, a DFE value corresponding to a respectively received voltage value.

  • Publication number: 20250069631
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data alignment for memory are described. A memory device may implement individual time adjustments to align portions of a multilevel signal modulated by a modulation scheme with three levels. In some cases, signal paths for generating and transmitting the portions of the multilevel signal may reference a clock signal, and adjustable delay circuits may apply individual delays to the clock signal received at each signal path. For example, a first adjustable delay circuit may apply a first time adjustment to the clock signal received at a first signal path for generating a first portion. And, a second adjustable delay circuit may apply a second time adjustment to the clock signal received at a second signal path for generating a second portion. Applying the time adjustments to the signal paths may align the portions of the multilevel signal in time, compared to the clock signal.

  • Publication number: 20250044826
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for techniques for coupled host and memory dies are described. As part of a low-speed testing phase of a memory system, a low-speed tester may measure the change in phase of a set of clock signals in response to a change in a configuration of the memory system. For example, the low-speed tester may communicate with a mimic circuit of the memory system to determine a first frequency of a first clock signal of the multi-phase clock associated with a first configuration of the memory system and determine a second frequency of the first clock signal associated with a second configuration of the memory system. The low-speed tester may store an indication of the difference between the first frequency and the second frequency, and a high-speed tester may use the difference as part of selecting a set of trim parameters for the multi-phase clock signal.

  • Publication number: 20210350521
    Abstract: A method for determination of blade is provided. An image of a wind turbine containing at least a part of one or more blades of the wind turbine is received by an interface of a computer system. The image has a given original number of pixels in height and width. The image is analyzed to determine an outline of the blades in the image. A modified image is created from the analyzed image containing image information of the blades only. Finally, the modified image is analyzed to determine a blade defect and/or a blade defect type of the blades. As a result, the blade defects and/or blade defect types are output by a processing unit.

  • Patent number: 9759287
    Abstract: A coupling for transmitting torque from a drive to a load has a first connection for connection with the drive, a second connection for connection with the load, and an elastic element for vibration damping and between the first and second connections in the energy transmission path therebetween. An actuator carried on the elastic element has a base body and a centrifugal mass body rotatable relative thereto. One of the two bodies carries an electrical conductor and the other of the two bodies carries a permanent magnet. The conductor is in a magnetic field of the permanent magnet. Thus a flow of current through the conductor makes the centrifugal mass body exert an angular force on the base body to compensate for rotational vibrations.
