  • Patent number: 10984843
    Abstract: A memory cell arrangement for Random Access Memory (RAM) including one or more RAM cell groups. The RAM cell groups having two or more local bit-lines sharing a Global Bit-Line (GBL), a pre-charging circuit connected to the GBL, a multiplexer connected to multiple GBLs and configured to shift an output of a first GBL from a first bit to a second bit at least in part according to a value of a fuse bit register associated with a second GBL, and at least one pre-charge enabling circuit controlled by a combination of a pre-charge input value applied to all GBLs of the memory cell arrangement and a pre-charge enable signal for the GBL.

  • Patent number: 10062086
    Abstract: A method for operating a bonus system includes providing a driver account associated with a driver by a database, acquiring data relating to the driver by an application installed on a mobile terminal, acquiring data on the vehicle side of at least one motor vehicle of the driver by at least one acquisition device on the motor vehicle side, transmitting the acquired data to the database, creating an electronic life career associated with the driver account based on the data transmitted to the database, and assigning respectively preset bonus points to the driver account as soon as it has been acquired based on the electronic life career that respective preset events have been achieved. Preset benefits can be redeemed depending on the bonus points assigned to the driver account.
