Patent number: 10063223Abstract: According to an implementation, an audio switch circuit includes an audio switch configured to selectively couple an input node to an output node to transfer an audio signal across the audio switch. The audio switch has an on-resistance in response to the input node being coupled to the output node. The on-resistance of the audio switch changes by a first value in response to an input voltage of the audio signal increasing from a first level to a second level. The audio switch circuit includes an on-resistance compensation circuit configured to have an on-resistance that changes by a second value in response to the input voltage of the audio signal increasing from the first level to the second level. The on-resistance compensation circuit is coupled to the audio switch such that the second value at least partially offsets the first value.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 2017Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Semiconductor Components Industries, LLCInventors: Lei Huang, Na Meng

Patent number: 9311220Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for determining the root cause of non-deterministic tests. An exemplary system may receive a non-deterministic test and run the non-deterministic test with call trace collection enabled. For each trace, the system may determine whether the trace was associated with a passing or failing test. Each trace may be labeled according to the trace's association. Then, dynamic call trees may be constructed, one for the traces associated with passing tests and one for traces associated with failing tests. The dynamic call trees may be compared to determine subtree patterns that occur in one tree, but not the other. The subtree patterns may then be ranked based on the number of times the subtrees occur in the traces in order to determine the root cause of the non-deterministic test.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2013Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Jungwoo Ha, Jaeheon Yi, Peter Dinges, Jeremy Manson, Caitlin Harrison Sadowski, Na Meng
