  • Patent number: 11954499
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for operational code storage for an on-die microprocessor are described. A microprocessor may be formed on-die with a memory array. Operating code for the microprocessor may be stored in the memory array, possibly along with other data (e.g., tracking or statistical data) used or generated by the on-die microprocessor. A wear leveling algorithm may result in some number of rows within the memory array not being used to store user data at any given time, and these rows may be used to store the operating code and possibly other data for the on-die microprocessor. The on-die microprocessor may boot and run based on the operating code stored in memory array.

  • Patent number: 4924860
    Abstract: A water trap for a gas analyzer includes self-sealing filters formed of a porous polymer that includes a cellulose extract that causes the polymer to become impermeable on contact with water. The water trap in this way automatically protects the gas analyzer from liquid contamination. Preferably, the gas analyzer monitors a pressure parameter of a pneumatic line connected to the water trap and provides an indication that the water trap should be replaced in the event this pressure parameter indicates an abnormal operating condition.
