Abstract: A method of operating a memory device that includes the steps of receiving a read command and a target address in a non-volatile memory (NVM) array, in which the NVM array is divided into a plurality of blocks based on row and column addresses, performing a read operation on NVM cells in the target address and coupling an output of each NVM cell read to a sensing circuit, generating a local reference voltage based on a base reference voltage and an adjustment reference voltage corresponding to the target address of the NVM cells being read and a block that the NVM cells belong thereto, and offsetting the base reference voltage with the adjustment reference voltage, and coupling the local reference voltage to the sensing circuit. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: A valve assembly for a tire inflation/deflation system includes a body having a control port and a tire port, and a valve member for fluidly connecting or disconnecting the control port with the tire port. In one embodiment, the valve includes a fluid-operated damper having a damper chamber for controlling a timing of the valve member. A vent valve is provided for permitting excess fluid pressure to escape from the damper chamber. In another embodiment, the valve member includes a diaphragm separating first and second fluid chambers. A vent passage and at least one resilient fluid pressure-operated valve element are provided for enabling fluid to vent from the first chamber to the second chamber. Multiple-redundant valve elements may be provided to form an isolation gap that restricts contamination of the valve assembly.
