Publication number: 20230214771Abstract: An intelligent supply-chain wide tracking and analysis system is described. In some instances, the system may receive variant data describing a variant of a product from a first client system, generate a variant profile based on the variant data, and determine a connection definition specific to the variant profile and defining a connection between the first client system and a second system. The system may provide access to a first data field containing data in the client profile from the first client system to the second client system based on the connection definition. The system may also receive an inventory value for the variant from the second client system and, using the variant profile and connection definition, provide access to the inventory value to the first client system.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2022Publication date: July 6, 2023Inventors: Stephen Parker Baird, Clayton James Perkins, Matthew Robert Newman, Daniel Larry Duncan

Patent number: 10244103Abstract: An apparatus monitoring calls of a system includes a processor and memory causing the apparatus to perform operations including capturing recordings of calls in real-time from recorded devices. The processor may further cause the apparatus to compare audio call data of the calls detected by a switch with audio content of recorded calls by recorder devices to determine whether the audio call data matches the audio content of recorded calls. The processor may further cause the apparatus to monitor conditions of recorder devices during calls to determine whether a component(s) of recorder devices or of communication devices exceeds a threshold. The processor may further cause the apparatus to monitor memory in which recorded calls are transferred for archiving to determine whether there is enough storage in the memory. The processor may further cause the apparatus to determine metrics impacting quality of recorded calls and perform analytics on the recorded calls.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2018Date of Patent: March 26, 2019Assignee: RED BOX RECORDERS LIMITED.Inventors: John Cunningham, Stephen Parker

Patent number: 10020206Abstract: The present disclosure relates to enhancing the thermal performance of encapsulated flip chip dies. According to an exemplary process, a plurality of flip chip dies are attached on a top surface of a carrier, and a first mold compound is applied over the top surface of the carrier to encapsulate the plurality of flip chip dies. The first mold compound is thinned down to expose a substrate of each flip chip die and the substrate of each flip chip die is then substantially etched away to provide an etched flip chip die that has an exposed surface at the bottom of a cavity. Next, a second mold compound with high thermal conductivity is applied to substantially fill each cavity and the top surface of the second mold compound is planarized. Finally, the encapsulated etched flip chip dies can be marked, singulated, and tested as a module.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2016Date of Patent: July 10, 2018Assignee: Qorvo US, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Scott Morris, David Jandzinski, Stephen Parker, Jon Chadwick, Julio C.
