Abstract: In some examples, the disclosure includes a circuit including a power field effect transistor (FET), a gate pull-down circuit, a pull-down bias circuit, and a radio frequency (RF) detector coupled to the source terminal of the power FET and the pull-down bias circuit. In an example, the RF detector circuit is configured to detect a presence of an alternating current signal at a source terminal of the power FET when the power FET is in a non-conductive state and control the pull-down bias circuit to bias the gate pull-down circuit to create a low impedance path between a gate terminal of the power FET and the source terminal of the power FET when the power FET is in the non-conductive state and the alternating current signal is present at the source terminal of the power FET.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided systems and methods for providing status of a processing device with a periodic synchronization point in an instruction tracing system. For example, the method may include generating a boundary packet based on a unique byte pattern in a packet log. The boundary packet provides a starting point for packet decode. The method may also include generating a plurality of state packets based on status information of the processor. The plurality of state packets follows the boundary packet when outputted into the packet log.

Abstract: In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided systems and methods for minimizing bandwidth to compress an output stream of an instruction tracing system. For example, the method may include identifying a current instruction in a trace of the IT module as a conditional branch (CB) instruction. The method includes executing one of generating a CB packet including a byte pattern with an indication of outcome of the CB instruction, or adding an indication of the outcome of the CB instruction to the byte pattern of an existing CB packet. The method includes generating a packet when a subsequent instruction in the trace is not the CB instruction. The packet is different from the CB packet. The method also includes adding the packet into a deferred queue when the packet is deferrable. The method further includes outputting the CB packet followed by the deferred packet into a packet log.

Abstract: A solid particle counting system for measuring solid particle number concentrations from engine or vehicle exhausts in real-time includes an evaporation unit, a diluter arrangement, and a particle counter. The diluter arrangement mixes the dilution gas with the gases from the evaporation unit at a dilution ratio, and the diluter arrangement includes a flow meter located upstream of the evaporation unit for measuring the flow of gases into the evaporation unit which, in turn, flow into the diluter arrangement.

Abstract: A penetration and removal efficiency calibration unit for a volatile particle remover in a solid particle counting system provides an accurate and efficient approach to calibration. The calibration unit includes an aerosol inlet, a flow meter downstream of the aerosol inlet, and a mixer. The flow meter receives the aerosol flow from the aerosol inlet and provides an output flow to the mixer. The mixer receives the output flow from the flow meter and also has a dilution gas inlet. The mixer provides a mixer output flow for reception by the volatile particle remover or particle counter. A first flow controller controls flow into the dilution gas inlet. The calibration unit also includes a bypass inlet. A second flow controller controls flow into the bypass inlet, and a control loop controls the bypass flow such that the aerosol flow tracks a reference value.

Abstract: A solid particle counting system for measuring solid particle number concentrations from engine or vehicle exhausts in real-time includes a diluter arrangement, a particle counter, and a flow splitter. The diluter arrangement mixes the dilution gas with flowing sample gases. The flow splitter receives the output flow from the diluter arrangement, provides a portion of this flow to the particle counter, and provides a by-pass flow that is received by a vacuum pump. A second flow route to the particle counter includes a valve arranged such that opening the valve during the starting of the vacuum pump reduces a pressure pulse at the particle counter caused by the starting of the vacuum pump, thereby avoiding work fluid backflow from the particle counter prior to the vacuum pump stabilizing.

Abstract: A solid particle counting system for measuring solid particle number concentrations from engine or vehicle exhausts in real-time includes a flow splitter having an inlet, a sample outlet, and a by-pass outlet arranged such that a main flow enters the inlet and changes direction to exit the by-pass outlet. A sample flow from the main flow exits the sample outlet. The flow splitter further includes a guiding element arranged such that particles at a sampling location upstream of the main flow direction change are guided to the sample outlet.

Abstract: A method for telemetry between an implantable medical device and an external programming component is disclosed. The telemetry circuitry of the implantable device is initially powered on for only a portion of the time needed to receive the entirety of a wake-up signal from the external component. During that time, only a first portion of the wake-up signal as received form the external component is checked against the implantable device's understanding of that first portion as stored in its memory. If the implantable device does not recognize the received first portion, powering on of the telemetry circuitry is terminated. However, if that first portion is recognized, then the implantable device continues to power on the telemetry circuitry to receive another (second) portion of the wake-up signal. If that received second portion is recognized, then the telemetry circuitry is further powered to receive a next (third) portion of the wake-up signal from the external component, etc.
