  • Publication number: 20240111550
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process is disclosed. An application is loaded into a local address space. A request by the application to load a target shared library is intercepted by an interceptor. Using the interceptor and based upon the request being intercepted, a shared library correlation table is searched for a loading count and a loading policy associated with the target shared library. Based upon the loading count and the loading policy, a selection is made between loading the target shared library as a shared library container, and loading the target shared library into the local address space. The target shared library is loaded based upon the selecting. The loading count represents a number of times the target shared library was loaded, and the loading policy indicates how the target shared library is to be loaded.

  • Patent number: 10148176
    Abstract: A DC-to-DC converter and a PWM device thereof are provided. The PWM device includes a ramp generator circuit, an error amplifier, a comparator and a clamping circuit. The error amplifier compares a voltage difference between the feedback voltage and the reference voltage to output a comparison voltage corresponding to the voltage difference. The comparator compares a ramp voltage of the ramp generator circuit and the comparison voltage of the error amplifier, so as to output a pulse signal. The clamping circuit determines whether to induce the comparison voltage to follow the ramp voltage. The clamping circuit is disabled when the PWM device is operated in the PWM mode, such that the comparison voltage and the ramp voltage are independent of each other. The clamping circuit is enabled when the PWM device is operated in the non-PWM mode, such that the comparison voltage follows the ramp voltage.
