Publication number: 20250037755Abstract: Methods and apparatuses related to using non-zero selection circuitry. For example, the non-zero selection circuitry can determine whether a first word received from a first group of sense amplifiers has at least one bit having a first binary value, such as a logical “1”. In response to the first word being determined to have at least one bit having the first binary value, the first word can be outputted from the non-zero selection circuitry and a second word can be prevented from being outputted (even if the second word is determined to have at least one bit having the first binary value) at least while the first word is being outputted.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: Timothy P. Finkbeiner, Glen E. Hush, Troy A. Manning, Troy D. Larsen, Peter L. Brown

Patent number: 12208318Abstract: Disclosed herein are various embodiments of a golf club head having improved mass distribution characteristics. The golf club head includes a body and a face positioned at a forward portion of the body. The golf club head also includes one or more mass elements positioned at predetermined locations about the head. The mass elements assist in achieving a desired relationship between the moment of inertia about a center of gravity x-axis and the moment of inertia about a center of gravity z-axis.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2024Date of Patent: January 28, 2025Assignee: Taylor Made Golf Company, Inc.Inventors: Todd P. Beach, Peter L. Larsen, Joseph Henry Hoffman

Publication number: 20250029651Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices related to performing logical operations using multiple digit lines. At least two digit lines coupled to the same sense amplifier can be used for the logical operations. For example, two word lines on one digit line and one word line on another digit line can be substantially concurrently activated to perform a particular logical operation. These three word lines are respectively coupled to memory cells configured to store either operands of operation or a reference data value for the particular logical.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 3, 2024Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Glen E. Hush, Troy A. Manning, Timothy P. Finkbeiner, Troy D. Larsen, Peter L. Brown

Patent number: 12090373Abstract: An iron-type golf club has a body that defines a rear void. The face portion includes an ideal striking location that defines the origin of a coordinate system. The body includes a central region in which ?25 mm<x<25 mm. The sole portion that is contained within the central region includes a forward sole region located adjacent to the face portion and a sole bar located rearward of the forward sole region, with the forward sole region defining a wall having a minimum forward sole thickness TFS and the sole bar defining a body having a maximum sole bar thickness TSB, such that 0.05<TFS/TSB<0.4. The sole portion includes a slot extending in a substantially heel-to-toe direction of the sole portion, the slot defining a portion of a path that extends through the sole portion and into the rear void. The slot is at least partially filled with a filler material.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2022Date of Patent: September 17, 2024Assignee: Taylor Made Golf Company, Inc.Inventors: Bret H.
