Patent number: 11996852Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for hopping a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) among a plurality of channels, wherein a gain of the DCO KDCO is a nonlinear function of frequency. A first normalized tuning word (NTW) corresponding to a first channel of the plurality of channels is generated. A first normalizing gain multiplier X is generated based on the nonlinear function of frequency, on an estimate of the nonlinear function of frequency, at a first frequency corresponding to the first channel. The first NTW is multiplied by the first X to obtain a first oscillator tuning word (OTW). The first OTW is input to the DCO to cause the DCO to hop to the first channel. A system for hopping among a plurality of channels at a plurality of respective frequencies comprises a phase-locked loop (PLL), a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO), a multiplexer, and an arithmetic module.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2022Date of Patent: May 28, 2024Assignee: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company LimitedInventors: Chao Chieh Li, Min-Shueh Yuan, Robert Bogdan Staszewski, Chia-Chun Liao

Publication number: 20240130649Abstract: A method for factory calibration of a sensor of a CGM system is disclosed. A processor receives an enzyme membrane thickness after each dip of a working wire according to first parameters. The processor receives a glucose limiting membrane thickness after each dip of the working wire according to second parameters. The processor determines a working wire diameter, and includes the membrane thicknesses. The processor in communication with the CGM system, automatically generates a correlation between the first and the second parameters to at least one of a factory sensitivity and a drift profile. The drift profile predicts a sensitivity of the sensor over time. The processor associates the at least one of the factory sensitivity or the drift profile with the sensor. The sensor outputs a glucose reading during in-vivo use based on the at least one of the factory sensitivity or the drift profile.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 17, 2023Publication date: April 25, 2024Applicant: Zense-Life Inc.Inventors: Robert James Boock, Huashi Zhang, Nelson Chun Man To, Sai Kit Wu, Michael Wheelock, Sarah Esparza, Qinyi Yan

Patent number: 11961018Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying and notifying requestors that may be candidates for a particular autonomous vehicle in order to find those candidates that may be willing or able to relax their travel constraints to match the autonomous vehicle. A request flow may involve surfacing the potential option of matching to an autonomous vehicle before setting a specific destination. For example, the request flow may involve determining that an autonomous vehicle is sufficiently near an in-session potential requestor. Before the potential requestor enters a specific destination, the request flow may present the possibility of the potential requestor being matched with the autonomous vehicle. In some examples, the request flow may then provide available drop-off locations that are compatible with the autonomous vehicle for selection by the potential requestor. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Lyft, Inc.Inventors: Gavin Sebastian Hurley, Leighton Kamaile Jen, Jody Metzenbaum Kelman, Rex See Chun Lam, Jonathan Patrick O'Keefe, Oleg Vadim Panichev, Arkesh Jagdish Patel, John Robert Tighe, Adam Alexander Wolf

Publication number: 20240119582Abstract: Described are embodiments for generating a post-optical proximity correction (OPC) result for a mask using a target pattern and reference layer patterns. Images of the target pattern and reference layers are provided as an input to a machine learning (ML) model to generate a post-OPC image. The images may be input separately or combined into a composite image (e.g., using a linear function) and input to the ML model. The images are rendered from pattern data. For example, a target pattern image is rendered from a target pattern to be printed on a substrate, and a reference layer image such as dummy pattern image is rendered from dummy pattern. The ML model is trained to generate the post-OPC image using multiple images associated with target patterns and reference layers, and using a reference post-OPC image of the target pattern. The post-OPC image may be used to generate a post-OPC mask.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 31, 2022Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Quan ZHANG, Been-Der CHEN, Wei-chun Fong, Zhangnan ZHU, Robert Elliott BOONE

Patent number: 5995383Abstract: An AC-to-DC power converter draws input current through an inductor. When the input voltage of the converter is sufficiently high and the switch of the converter is on, current flows into the converter, through the inductor, to the tap of a transformer, through a first primary winding of the transformer, and through the switch. When the switch is then turned off, current continues to flow through the inductor and to the tap of the transformer but then flows through a second primary of the transformer and into a storage capacitor. Energy stored in the storage capacitor is transferred to the load when it is not possible to obtain sufficient energy from the input current to supply the load. The AC-to-DC converter has very few circuit components and low input current harmonics.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 1996Date of Patent: November 30, 1999Assignee: Computer Products, Inc.Inventors: Franki Ngai Kit Poon, Robert Chun Fung Lee, Fu-Sheng Tsai, Francis Man Shuen Ho

Patent number: 5751561Abstract: An AC-to-DC power converter achieves greater than 80 percent power factor correction with greater than 75 percent efficiency using only one power switch, only one magnetic component, only one control loop, and a storage capacitor. The only magnetic component is a transformer having first primary winding, a second primary winding, and at least one secondary winding. During a first time interval of the period of the AC input current, the second primary winding is energized with energy previously stored in a storage capacitor. During a second time interval of the period of the AC input current, the first primary winding is energized with energy of an input current flowing through the AC input terminals. As a result, the AC-to-DC power converter drawns input current for an extended period of time before the point in time when the input voltage peaks and also for an extended period of time after the point in time when the input voltage peaks.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 1997Date of Patent: May 12, 1998Assignee: Computer Products, Inc.Inventors: Francis Man Shuen Ho, Robert Chun Fung Lee
