  • Patent number: 11960426
    Abstract: Concurrent servicing of a first cable of a cable pair while a second cable of the cable pair remains operational improves multi-processor computer system availability and serviceability. A pair of processing chips in different processing drawers may continue operation by way of the second cable while the first cable is degraded or serviced. Upon the servicing of the first cable, the serviced cable may transition to a fully operational state with no interruptions to the operations between the processing drawers by way of the second cable. Since cable faults are typically more common than processing chip or processing drawer faults, identification of cable faults and the ability to maintain operations of the processing drawers connected therewith is increasingly important.

  • Patent number: 11961644
    Abstract: Disclosed are embodiments of synthetic garnet materials for use in radiofrequency applications. In some embodiments, increased amounts of gadolinium can be added into specific sites in the crystal structure of the synthetic garnet by incorporating indium, a trivalent element. By including both indium and increased amounts of gadolinium, the dielectric constant can be improved. Thus, embodiments of the disclosed material can be advantageous in both above and below resonance applications, such as for isolators and circulators.
