  • Publication number: 20250335238
    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an interface and a circuitry, coupled to the interface. In some examples, the circuitry is to translate an interrupt from system management interrupt (SMI) format to a second interrupt in System Control Interrupt (SCI) format and transmit the second interrupt, by the interface, to an SCI interrupt handler to perform event handling. In some examples, the SCI interrupt handler is to execute on a single thread.

  • Publication number: 20210137580
    Abstract: A surgical apparatus and methods for severing and welding tissue, in particular blood vessels. The apparatus includes an elongated shaft having a pair of relatively movable jaws at a distal end thereof. A first heating element on one of the jaws is adapted to heat up to a first temperature and form a welded region within the tissue, while a second heating element on one of the jaws is adapted to heat up to a second temperature and sever the tissue within the welded region. The first and second heating elements may be provided on the same or opposite jaws. A control handle provided on the proximal end of the elongated shaft includes controls for opening and closing the jaws, and may include an actuator for sending current through the first and second heating elements. The first and second heating elements may be electrically connected in series, and the first heating element may be bifurcated such that it conducts about one half of the current as the second heating element.

  • Patent number: 8942771
    Abstract: The frequency with which data is refreshed for an application executed by a mobile device may be dynamically set based on one or more of the state of the battery or the network access of the device, or the frequency with which the application is used. The data refresh frequency may also be dynamically set based on additional parameters, including, e.g., the strength of the signal of the network over which the mobile device is communicating.

  • Patent number: 7215022
    Abstract: A multi-die module is electrically connected to both an unpackaged die and a packaged die as disclosed herein. The multi-die module has a footprint that is the same as conventional multi-die packages, which do not include packaged die, thereby allowing the multi-die module to be interchangeable with conventional multi-die packages. In one embodiment, the unpackaged die is a graphics processor, and the packaged die is a standard memory that has been burned in, functionally tested, and speed rated.
