Abstract: A method for configuring a voltage regulator (VR) inductor includes determining a compensation inductance of a compensation inductor in a secondary winding of the VR inductor. The method further includes determining leakage inductance in the secondary winding. The method further includes determining an equivalent inductance of the secondary winding based on the compensation inductance and the leakage inductance. The method further includes reconfiguring the secondary winding based on removing the compensation inductor, to obtain a reconfigured secondary winding. The method further includes adjusting a coupling coefficient between a primary winding of the VR inductor and the secondary winding to adjust the equivalent inductance. The adjusting of the coupling coefficient is based on the removing of the compensation inductor.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for self-isolation of power-management integrated circuits (PMICs) of memory modules under and in response to fault conditions. In an embodiment, a PMIC is operably engaged with a memory module that is operably engaged with a platform. The memory module includes a non-volatile-memory block having a power supply controlled by the PMIC. The PMIC has a critical-fault signal pin that can be asserted to shut down the platform. The PMIC determines whether at least one critical fault occurred during a prior cycle, and also determines whether a critical fault occurs during a bootup sequence during a current cycle. Based on determining that a prior-cycle critical fault occurred and that a critical fault occurs during the bootup sequence, the PMIC sets a critical-fault indicator corresponding to the current critical fault; powers down the power supply; and does not assert the critical-fault signal pin.

Abstract: Methods and systems and computer-readable media are provided for dual optimization of pick walk and tote fill rates in order picking. Embodiments provide improved order picking speed and quality by optimizing pick routing with consideration of both proximity constraints and tote value constraints. Tote value constraints can include constraints on carrying capacity, volume, size in a particular dimension, or weight capacity.

Abstract: Systems and methods for proactive and automated pre-transaction verification and authentication of electronic transfers are described. In various examples, transaction details associated with an electronic transfer (e.g., a wire transfer, an Automated Clearing House (ACH) transfer, a peer-to-peer (P2P) transfer, or a cryptocurrency transfer) are verified and the recipient is authenticated by a transaction verification service associated with an electronic transfer service provider (e.g., a financial institution, a peer-to-peer (P2P) payment system, or a custodial wallet provider) prior to permitting the electronic transfer to proceed. In this manner, electronic transfers are secured against electronic transfer fraud and/or mistaken fund or asset transfers, for example, to an incorrect account (or an incorrect cryptocurrency wallet) by the electronic transfer service provider.

Abstract: To address problems associated with power management of electronic devices, the subject matter described herein provides improved power management solutions that enable CPUs and other electronic components to characterize real-time power consumption. This may be used to assess an effect of added platform level features after factory testing, and may be used to improve or optimize system performance. These solutions may include an accurate platform-independent integrated voltage measurement, dedicated to a reliable absolute voltage measurement that may be used for multiple purposes. The subject matter described herein proposes a combination of a voltage detector and an algorithm implemented in the electronic component (e.g., CPU) that may be used to compensate for voltage variations due to tolerances or guard bands, and may be used to detect discrepancies of underreporting or overreporting of current information by the platform VR.
