  • Publication number: 20180101483
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a memory hierarchy for a system-in-package. An example memory hierarchy is connectable to a processor via a memory management unit arranged for translating a virtual address sent by the processor into a physical address. The memory hierarchy has a data cache memory and a memory structure having at least a L1 memory array comprising at least one cluster. The memory structure comprises a first data access controller arranged for managing one or more banks of scratchpad memory of at least one of the clusters of at least the L1 memory array, comprising a data port for receiving at least one physical address and arranged for checking at run-time, for each received physical address, bits of the physical address to see if the physical address is present in the one or more banks of the at least one cluster of at least the L1 memory array.

  • Publication number: 20170091094
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to low-layer memory for a computing platform. An example embodiment includes a memory hierarchy being directly connectable to a processor. The memory hierarchy includes at least a level 1, referred to as L1, memory structure comprising a non-volatile memory unit as L1 data memory and a buffer structure (L1-VWB). The buffer structure includes a plurality of interconnected wide registers with an asymmetric organization, wider towards the non-volatile memory unit than towards a data path connectable to the processor. The buffer structure and the non-volatile memory unit are arranged for being directly connectable to a processor so that data words can be read directly from either of the L1 data memory and the buffer structure (L1-VWB) by the processor.

  • Patent number: 9470410
    Abstract: An arrangement of a heat sink and a heat-generating electronic component is provided. The heat sink has a main part and a moulding of plastic. The electronic component is mounted on a first surface of the main part with thermal contact to the main part. The moulding is mounted to a second surface of the main part, opposite the first surface, to provide structural strength to the arrangement. The moulding has a void provided through the moulding. As a result, once the moulding and the main part are mounted to each other, a portion of the second surface of the main part is exposed through the void.

  • Patent number: 5848779
    Abstract: A controlling motor for moving a stem along an axis has a hydraulic actuator with a cylinder in which a piston that is frictionally linked to the stem is slidingly and sealingly mounted, as well as a compression spring that is frictionally linked to the stem and acts against the actuator. The controlling motor has a trigger with an inflow area into which hydraulic fluid may be introduced, a pressure area that communicates with the inflow area through a diaphragm and is connected to the actuator, and a drainage area from which the hydraulic fluid may be evacuated without pressure, as well as a switching element that links the pressure area to the drainage area when a positive pressure differential occurs between the pressure area and the inflow area, and that otherwise shuts off the drainage area. The stem may be pushed out of the cylinder by the compression spring and may be drawn into the cylinder when hydraulic fluid is applied to the inflow area.

  • Patent number: 5630698
    Abstract: A converter assembly for providing a liquid in a measuring line includes a stationary housing and a component being rigidly connected to the housing. A journal is slidingly supported in the stationary housing and defines a gap disposed between the component and the journal forming a throttle. The journal has an axis of rotation, an end, at least one transverse bore formed in the journal, and a journal bore formed in the journal from the end along the axis. The housing has a groove formed therein surrounding the journal and communicating with the journal bore through the at least one transverse bore. A liquid flow path communicates with a reservoir at a primary pressure and a pressureless sump and includes the throttle, the groove, the transverse bore and the journal bore. A measuring line branching off from the path between the transverse bore and the throttle carries the liquid at a measurement pressure corresponding to a rotational speed of the journal rotating about the axis.
