Abstract: A processing system for a capacitive touch screen comprises sensor circuitry and control logic. The sensor circuitry is configured to communicatively couple with sensor electrodes of the capacitive touch screen. The control logic is configured to operate the capacitive touch screen in a first mode comprising interference sensing at a first level and input object sensing. The control logic is also configured to operate the capacitive touch screen in a second mode instead of the first mode in response to: interference measured in the first mode meeting an interference condition; and a determination that input is in a sensing region of the capacitive touch screen. Operating in the first mode, interference sensing is performed during a non-display update time. Operating in the second mode, interference sensing with the capacitive touch screen is either not performed or is performed at a second level, lower in fidelity than the first level.

Abstract: A flow control mechanism for packet-switched computer interconnect relates a packet in the interconnect to another packet in the interconnect by one or more various means. A packet is deemed stalled if it is stuck inside a switch packet buffer waiting to be forwarded due to unavailability of appropriate output ports. When an incoming packet begins to arrive, the switch checks to see if its internal packet buffers already contain a related packet that is currently stalled. If so, the switch immediately rejects the incoming packet. The incoming packet is only accepted if there are no related packets stalled inside the receiver. A switch may simultaneously contain several related packets that are in the process of being forwarded, but it may never contain more than one stalled packet. Adaptive routing is also limited by the assignment of adaptivity credits to each packet.
