Abstract: A flux-pump digital-to-analog converter (DAC) includes a ring of Josephson transmission line (JTL) stages. The ring includes multiple injector Josephson junctions (JJs). Each of the multiple injector JJs can be individually activated to inject magnetic flux into the ring in a given AC clock cycle, or controllably deactivated so as not to inject flux during the given AC clock cycle. The flux-pump DAC further includes a load inductor coupled to ring JJs of the ring. The load inductor is configured to store the magnetic flux injected into the ring. Because the flux-pump DAC includes multiple injector JJs arranged around the JTL ring, it can ramp up current loaded into the load inductor faster than a single-injector flux-pump DAC, and with precise, variable controllability of ramp speed so as to provide enhanced adiabaticity.

Abstract: Dynamic memory area configuration includes designating a portion of memory as a specialized memory unit, and reserving a first portion of specialized memory unit for a plurality of page frame table entries (PFTEs) representing a plurality of frames in the specialized memory. One or more of the PFTEs are stored in respective queue entries within a queue in a reserved area of the specialized memory unit. A particular queue entry indicates that a particular PFTE associated with a particular frame is available for use. An offline request to take a second portion of the specialized memory unit offline is received. Whether to fulfill the offline request is determined based on whether the second portion of the specialized memory unit has an associated queue entry within the queue indicating that the associated frame is not in use back a portion of a page frame table (PFT) or the specialized memory unit.

Abstract: A trigger mechanism for a firearm comprises a connector adapted to be pivotally connected to a firearm receiver, a trigger pivotally connected to the connector, and a trigger bar pivotally connected to the connector. The trigger and trigger bar are configured such that the trigger engages the trigger bar to block the connector from pivoting until the trigger is depressed rearwardly. The connector is permitted to pivot once the trigger is fully depressed rearwardly such that the trigger is not engaged with the trigger bar, whereupon pivotal motion of the connector drives the trigger bar rearwardly to release a striker of the firearm to fire the firearm.
