  • Patent number: 12204517
    Abstract: A database management system is described that can encode data to generate a plurality of data vectors. The database management system can perform the encoding by using a dictionary. The database management system can adaptively reorder the plurality of data vectors to prepare for compression of the plurality of data vectors. During a forward pass of the adaptive reordering, most frequent values of a data vector of the plurality of data vectors can be moved-up in the data vector. During a backward pass of the adaptive reordering, content within a rest range of a plurality of rest ranges can be rearranged within the plurality of data vectors according to frequencies of the content. The reordering according to frequency can further sort the rest range by value. Related apparatuses, systems, methods, techniques, computer programmable products, computer readable media, and articles are also described.

  • Publication number: 20240424732
    Abstract: A method for preparing virtual build volumes for the manufacture of three-dimensional objects. The virtual build volume represents an actual build volume over which one or more objects are to be built. The method includes the steps of: (a) receiving one or more object models, the object model(s) defining the intended dimensions of each of the objects; (b) applying a transformation to an initial virtual build volume to create a reduced virtual build volume smaller than the virtual build volume; (c) positioning the object model(s) within the reduced virtual build volume; and (d) applying an inverse transformation to expand the reduced virtual build volume to create an expanded virtual build volume including expanded object model(s); wherein each of the expanded object model(s) is larger than the respective object model(s).

  • Publication number: 20240348146
    Abstract: An isolated gate driver has a first portion in a first voltage domain and a second portion in a second voltage domain. The first and second portions are coupled by an isolation communication channel. The isolated gate driver transmits across the isolation communication channel a serial word containing first drive strength information and simultaneously transmits gate information with the serial word across the isolation communication channel. The gate information indicates a state of a gate signal for a transistor coupled to the second portion of the isolated gate driver. A demodulator circuit demodulates a signal containing the gate information and the drive strength information transmitted across the isolation communication channel in the serial word. A gate signal output circuit coupled to the demodulator circuit supplies the gate signal based on the gate information with a drive strength of the gate signal being based on the drive strength information.

  • Publication number: 20240329333
    Abstract: Multi-die packages including both photonic and electric integrated circuit (IC) die interconnected to each other through a routing structure built-up on a glass substrate. A glass preform comprising an optical waveguide may also be attached to the routing structure. A plurality of electrical IC (EIC) die may be arrayed over the routing structure along with a plurality of photonic IC (PIC). Each PIC may be coupled to an optical waveguide within the glass preform. Conductive vias may extend through the glass substrate and be further coupled with a host substrate. The host substrate may comprise glass and an optical waveguide embedded within the glass. A vertical coupler may be attached to the host substrate to optically couple the host substrate to the optical waveguide within the glass preform of the multi-die package. Many of the multi-die packages may be arrayed over a routing structure on the host substrate.
