  • Patent number: 11948619
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a memory device includes a memory core and input receivers to receive commands and data. The memory device also includes a register to store a value that indicates whether a subset of the input receivers are powered down in response to a control signal. A memory controller transmits commands and data to the memory device. The memory controller also transmits the value to indicate whether a subset of the input receivers of the memory device are powered down in response to the control signal. In addition, in response to a self-fresh command, the memory device defers entry into a self-refresh operation until receipt of the control signal that is received after receiving the self-refresh command.

  • Patent number: 4408550
    Abstract: A seedling transplanting implement is provided with increased versatility by substituting a yieldable rubber-like extremity portion on one of a pair of mechanical transplanting fingers. The yieldable finger portion can ride over the top of a planted seedling without causing injury to the planting and thereby enable seedlings to be planted in a row at spacings of two inches or less as compared to spacings of about fourteen inches necessary with similar implements embodying mechanically rigid planting fingers.
