  • Publication number: 20210320649
    Abstract: A half-bridge bootstrap circuit includes a high-side switch, a low-side switch, and a boot capacitor. A dynamically controlled minimum duty cycle curve is adopted to guarantee the minimum turn-on time of the low-side switch so that the boot capacitor can be sufficiently charged for keeping the high-side switch in the turn-on state. Also, the value of the minimum duty cycle curve can be dynamically set according to different operational phases of a load, thereby increasing the maximum output power of the load.

  • Patent number: 11144515
    Abstract: The systems and methods disclosed herein relate to using the clusters of a file to store versioning of a dataset. When the dataset is initially stored, a file is created that is twice the size of the dataset. The file may include one cluster (or a first set of clusters) that is marked as active and a second cluster (or a second set of clusters) that are marked inactive. The dataset is initially saved to the active cluster(s), and a version number is stored with the dataset. When the dataset is next saved, an application scans the file to determine whether there is (or are) an inactive cluster(s). If there is an inactive cluster(s) the second version of the dataset is saved to the inactive clusters. Both clusters are then marked active.

  • Patent number: 11146567
    Abstract: This invention discloses method and system for supporting posting (sharing) or un-posting (stop sharing) files, folders, and messages through utilizing private and group common workspaces. The stop sharing file or folder will not delete actual file or folder that contradicted to and enhanced for the then-existed technology for the file and folder sharing. The un-post message operation facilitates a user to remove (delete or withdraw or stop sharing) his/her previously posted message from viewing of a recipient such as from a user interface (UI) of the recipient, so that the user can avoid embarrassment if the message was not proper. Thus, the un-post the posted message has also enhanced the then-existing technology with better user experiences for message sharing.

  • Patent number: 11144262
    Abstract: A policy-based printing system is implemented to allow access to a private domain to print using a public domain. The private domain includes private servers that store documents. The public domain includes servers and a printing device. A public policy server uses a domain list and a protocol connection with a private authentication server to validate a user and identify which private domain to access. The public policy server receives requests from the printing device to process a print job of a document in the private domain. The public server may associate a public personal identification number (PIN) with a corporate PIN for the printing operations and a graphical code, such as a QR code, at a printing device. In the event of split printing, the public server generates another public PIN for use with another printing device having another graphical code.

  • Patent number: 11143063
    Abstract: To find compromises in the relationship between the component costs of intake and exhaust valves and the downsizing of an engine and the relationship between the cooling performance and the followability of the intake and exhaust valves and coordinate these conflicting relationships as much as possible. A hollow valve encapsulating coolant having a good cooling function is used as an exhaust valve, which is exposed to a higher temperature environment than an the intake valve, to eliminate a disincentive to downsizing. In contrast, a hollow valve that has no coolant, relatively low component cost, light weight, and good followability is used as the intake valve, which does not need to have a better cooling function than the exhaust valve and needs to have better followability than the exhaust valve to improve combustion efficiency.
