  • Rice lossless compression module
    Patent number: 7430328
    Abstract: A Rice coding data compression module includes a memory interface operable to receive sensor data from memory, a data normalization module operable to normalize received sensor data, an encoder operable to apply a Rice compression algorithm to the normalized data to produce compressed sensor data, a data management module operable to apply packet formatting to the compressed sensor data to produce formatted compressed sensor data packets; and a memory interface operable to store the formatted compressed sensor data packets to memory.

  • SYSTEM MANAGEMENT BUS PORT SWITCH
    Publication number: 20080123677
    Abstract: A method of sending data packets between a control processor and a plurality of peripheral components comprising retrieving information embedded in a command data packet formatted in a first protocol at a switch adapted to function as an alternate bus, forming a reformatted data packet at the switch, and transferring the reformatted data packet from the switch. The reformatted data packet is formatted according to a second protocol, and includes the retrieved information.

  • SYSTEM MANAGEMENT BUS PORT ROUTER
    Publication number: 20080084886
    Abstract: A method of sending data packets between a control processor and a plurality of peripheral components comprising retrieving information embedded in a command data packet formatted in a first protocol at a router, forming a reformatted command data packet at the router, and transferring the reformatted command data packet from the router. The reformatted command data packet is formatted according to a second protocol and the reformatted command data packet includes the retrieved information.

  • METHOD TO EMBED PROTOCOL FOR SYSTEM MANAGEMENT BUS IMPLEMENTATION
    Publication number: 20080059682
    Abstract: A method of adapting the System Management Bus protocol to increase the number of peripheral components accessible to a control processor, the method including embedding a component address having a length of up to seven bits in a System Management Bus Block Write and completing a system transaction with the System Management Bus Block Write and a second data packet so that data is sent between the control processor and the peripheral component having the component address.
