Patents by Inventor Noble NARKU-TETTEH

Noble NARKU-TETTEH has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 12154623
    Abstract: Techniques for controlling current through memory cells is disclosed. In the illustrative embodiment, a fine-grained current source and a coarse-grained current source can both be activated to perform an operation on a phase-change memory cell. The coarse-grained current source is briefly activated to charge up the capacitance of an electrical path through the memory cell and then turned off. The fine-grained current source applies a current pulse to perform the operation on the memory cell, such as a reset operation. By charging up the electrical path quickly with the coarse-grained current source, the fine-grained current source can quickly perform the operation on the memory cell, reducing the thermal disturbance caused by the operation on nearby memory cells.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10027295
    Abstract: An electrical device (e.g., an integrated circuit) includes an amplifier, a configurable common mode gain trim circuit, and a memory. The configurable common mode gain trim circuit is coupled to the amplifier. The memory is configured to include trim data that is usable during an initialization process for the electrical device to configure the impedance matching circuit.
