  • Publication number: 20230297155
    Abstract: A power saving system of a battery charger is provided. A control terminal of a first transistor receives a wake-up signal. A counter is connected to a first terminal of the first transistor. The counter determines whether or not a working period of the wake-up signal from the first transistor is larger than a time threshold to output a counting signal. When the counting signal indicates that the working period of the wake-up signal is not larger than the time threshold, the counter and electronic components of an electronic device are turned off, thereby saving power of a battery. When the counting signal indicates that the working period of the wake-up signal is larger than the time threshold, the electronic device is switched from a power saving mode to a normal operation mode. In the normal operation mode, the battery can supply power to the electronic device.

  • Publication number: 20230260847
    Abstract: Techniques described herein enable respective (different) types of metal silicide layers to be formed for p-type source/drain regions and n-type source/drain regions in a selective manner. For example, a p-type metal silicide layer may be selectively formed over a p-type source/drain region (e.g., such that the p-type metal silicide layer is not formed over the n-type source/drain region) and an n-type metal silicide layer may be formed over the n-type source/drain region (which may be selective or non-selective). This provides a low Schottky barrier height between the p-type metal silicide layer and the p-type source/drain region, as well as a low Schottky barrier height between the n-type metal silicide layer and the n-type source/drain region. This reduces the contact resistance for both p-type source/drain regions and n-type source/drain regions.

    Abstract: A collaborative data schema management system for federated learning (i.e., federated data manager (FDM)) is provided. Among other things, FDM enables the members of a federated learning alliance to (1) propose data schemas for use by the alliance, (2) identify and bind local datasets to proposed schemas, (3) create, based on the proposed schemas, training datasets for addressing various ML tasks, and (4) control, for each training dataset, which of the local datasets bound to that training dataset (and thus, which alliance members) will actually participate in the training of a particular ML model. FDM enables these features while ensuring that the contents of the members' local datasets remain hidden from each other, thereby preserving the privacy of that data.
