Abstract: The present invention provides an efficient hardware architecture for an ORAN compliant thermal management module for a combined centralized unit and a distributed unit (CCDU) for a 5G basement application required for processing L1, L2 and L3 scheduling of the network. The CCDU design may provide the functionality of a CU and a DU with single unit and can operate over wide temperature range. A single board approach of the CCDU make the CCDU more reliable and less costly. The CCDU can support different kinds of synchronization and can provide site alarms over dry contacts to equip with external alarm device.

Abstract: A scan chain architecture with lowered power consumption comprises a multiplexer selecting between a functional input and a test input. The output of the multiplexer is coupled to a low threshold voltage latch and, in test mode, to a standard threshold voltage latch. The low threshold voltage latch and standard threshold voltage latch are configured to store data when a clock input falls, using a master latch functional clock M_F_CLK, master latch test clock M_T_CLK, slave latch functional clock S_F_CLK, and slave latch test clock S_T_CLK. The slave latch has lower power consumption than the master latch.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process for a production of light olefins and aromatics from cracked light naphtha by selective cracking. The present invention thus provides a process for up grading cracked olefinic naphtha to high value petrochemical feed stocks. This process is based on catalytic cracking in which the catalyst activity is optimized by depositing coke for production of light olefins and aromatics. The proposed process has high flexibility and can be operated either in maximizing olefins as reflected from the PIE ratio or in maximizing aromatics (BTX) at different modes of operation depending upon the product requirement.
