  • Publication number: 20250130761
    Abstract: An electronic device includes N volume levels. The N volume levels include a first level and a second level. The first level corresponds to first volume. The second level corresponds to second volume. A difference between the first volume and the second volume is a first difference. The electronic device adjusts the N volume levels to M volume levels when a first condition is satisfied, where the M volume levels include a third level and a fourth level. The third level and the first level are a same level. The fourth level and the second level are a same level. The third level corresponds to third volume. The fourth level corresponds to fourth volume. A difference between the third volume and the fourth volume is a second difference.

  • Patent number: 10942106
    Abstract: An apparatus is provided for determining particle characteristics, in which a flow path is generated containing particles to be analyzed. A light detection system detecting light received from a measurement zone which has been scattered by the particles. A time duration for which a particle remains in the measurement zone is measured to determine an effective aerodynamic particle diameter and a peak detected received light intensity is measured to determine an effective optical particle diameter. A further particle parameter is also obtained relating to the shape and/or density of the particle. This approach enables more information than only a particle size to be obtained using a single-stage optical analysis system. The additional information may be used to characterize the particles more accurately.
