  • Publication number: 20240120018
    Abstract: A memory device, a failure bits detector, and a failure bits detection method thereof are provided. The failure bits detector includes a current generator, a current mirror, and a comparator. The current generator generates a first current according to a reference code. The current mirror mirrors the first current to generate a second current at a second end of the current mirror. The comparator compares a first voltage at a first input end with a second voltage at a second input end to generate a detection result.

  • Patent number: 11934027
    Abstract: An optical system affixed to an electronic apparatus is provided, including a first optical module, a second optical module, and a third optical module. The first optical module is configured to adjust the moving direction of a first light from a first moving direction to a second moving direction, wherein the first moving direction is not parallel to the second moving direction. The second optical module is configured to receive the first light moving in the second moving direction. The first light reaches the third optical module via the first optical module and the second optical module in sequence. The third optical module includes a first photoelectric converter configured to transform the first light into a first image signal.

  • Publication number: 20240079981
    Abstract: A motor drive system includes an electric motor, a drive circuit and a control unit. The drive circuit provides a driving current to the electric motor. A current command generator of the control unit generates a current command according to a torque command and a motor operating information. The driving current is converted into a d-axis current and/or a q-axis current by the control unit. Consequently, the driving current is close to the d-axis current command and/or the q-axis current command corresponding to the current command. If a value of the torque command is positive, the current command generator generates the corresponding current command according to a MTPA lookup table. If the value of the torque command is negative, the current command generator generates the corresponding current command according to a zero recycle lookup table.

  • Publication number: 20230083690
    Abstract: An electric gripper is disclosed and includes a carrier, an actuator, two dual-lever assemblies and an angle sensor. The actuator is disposed on the carrier and includes a sliding portion. The two dual-lever assemblies are disposed on the carrier and located at two opposite lateral sides of the sliding portion. Each of the two dual-lever assemblies includes a driving lever, a limiting lever and a gripping piece. The driving levers are staggered to each other. The limiting levers are staggered to each other. When the sliding portion slides a first distance in the first direction, the sliding portion drives the driving levers to rotate an angle, and the gripping pieces move toward each other to displace a second distance in a second direction. The angle sensor is disposed on the carrier and configured to measure the angle, to correspond to the first distance and the second distance.
