  • Patent number: 10693568
    Abstract: A method for receiving data using an FPGA receiver circuit comprises receiving payload data from a DUT using a first rate of a plurality of line rates during a first burst, wherein the DUT is communicatively coupled to the FPGA receiver circuit. The method further comprises transitioning to a power saving state at an end of the first burst and receiving synchronization data from the DUT using a second rate of a plurality of line rates during a second burst. Further, the method comprises establishing synchronization with a clock data recovery (CDR) circuit of the FPGA receiver circuit at the second rate and receiving payload data from the DUT at the second rate.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 5090082
    Abstract: A windshield wiping device for swivelling windshields of motor vehicles. The device includes a wiper shaft, which is supported on the assembly adjacent to the swivel axis of the windshield, and a wiper arm projecting over the windshield. The arm includes an attachment part, by means of which it is attached to the wiper shaft, and a pivoting part which can be swivelled relative to the attachment part around a swivelling axis, and which, by means of an electrical motor is brought into a stopping position on the windshield, in which the electrical motor is independently switched off by means of a stopping position switch. In order to open the windshield without damage, in the stopping position, the swivelling axis, between the attachment part and the pivoting part of the wiper arm, is directed at least approximately in parallel to the swivelling axis of the windshield.
