Publication number: 20240378062Abstract: Within an integrated circuit including a processor system and a data processing array, one or more kernels in the processor system are executed in response to a scheduling request from a host data processing system. The one or more kernels receive configuration data for implementing trace or profiling of a user design executable by a plurality of active tiles of the data processing array. Using the one or more kernels, selected tiles of the plurality of active tiles of the data processing array are configured with the configuration data to perform the trace or the profiling. Trace data or profiling data is generated through execution of the user design by the data processing array. The one or more kernels provide the trace data or the profiling data to the host data processing system.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2023Publication date: November 14, 2024Applicant: Xilinx, Inc.Inventors: Nishant Mysore, Anurag Dubey, Paul Robert Schumacher, Jason Richard Villarreal

Publication number: 20240354223Abstract: Event trace includes implementing a design for a data processing array of a target integrated circuit (IC) by, at least in part, adding a trace data offload architecture to the design. One or more selected tiles of the data processing array used by the design as implemented in the target IC are configured to generate trace data based on user-specified runtime settings for performing a trace. During execution of the design by the data processing array, trace data as generated by the one or more selected tiles of the data processing array is conveyed to a memory of the target IC using the trace data offload architecture. A trace report is generated from the trace data using a data processing system coupled to the target IC.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 21, 2023Publication date: October 24, 2024Applicant: Xilinx, Inc.Inventors: Paul Robert Schumacher, Anurag Dubey, Roger Ng, Ishita Ghosh, Scott H.

Publication number: 20240343089Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing energy consumption feedback for powering a transport climate control system using external data. This can include determining whether an energy level of an energy storage source is greater than an expected energy consumption of a transport climate control system during a route, based on route parameters and route conditions. The route conditions may be obtained from a source such as a remote server, and include data such as weather data, traffic data, or the like. The systems and methods may further compare current energy levels to an updated predictions of energy consumption during transit to determine if the energy level is sufficient to complete the route and alert the user when the energy level is insufficient to complete the route.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2024Publication date: October 17, 2024Inventors: Philip Lewis LAVRICH, Mark D.

Patent number: 12097751Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for providing predictive energy consumption feedback for powering a transport climate control system. This can include determining whether an energy level of an energy storage source is greater than an expected energy consumption of a transport climate control system during a route, based on route parameters. The route parameters may be obtained via a human-machine interface. When the energy storage source is less than the expected energy consumption, a user is alerted. The systems and methods may further compare the energy level to an expected energy level during transit to determine if the energy level is greater or less than expected and alert the user when the energy level is less than expected.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2018Date of Patent: September 24, 2024Assignee: THERMO KING LLCInventors: Casey Briscoe, Grant A.

Publication number: 20240308445Abstract: A system includes multiple drive modules, each for at least one actuator of a wheel or an axle of a vehicle. Each drive module has a bus interface for connecting to a bus, a switching signal input and a switching signal output. The drive module is configured to operate in an operating mode and a learning mode. The drive module has a switch and is configured to use the switch in the operating mode to conductively connect the switching signal input to the switching signal output and, after a transition from the operating mode to the learning mode, to interrupt the connection between the switching signal input and the switching signal output. The drive modules are connected in series via the switching signal inputs and switching signal outputs.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 28, 2024Publication date: September 19, 2024Inventors: Robert Sohn, Ralph Schumacher, Carsten Lehr, Johann Lucas
