  • Patent number: 11346901
    Abstract: An anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor without a set and reset device may include a substrate, an exchange bias layer, an AMR layer and a collection of barber-pole electrodes. The exchange bias layer may be deposited on the substrate and the AMR layer may be deposited on the exchange bias layer. The AMR layer may include multiple groups of AMR strips, and each group may include several AMR strips. The barber-pole electrodes may be arranged on each AMR strip. The AMR sensor achieves coupling by using the exchange bias layer, without requiring a reset/set coil. Because a coil is not used, the power consumption of the chip is reduced greatly, and the manufacturing process is simpler, providing improved yield and lower cost.

  • Patent number: 11287490
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a magnetoresistive sensor for measuring a magnetic field. A calculation of the sensitivity to external magnetic fields is provided, and it is shown to be related to the shape anisotropy of the magnetoresistive sensing elements. Moreover, it is shown that sensitivity may be made highest when the shape of the magnetoresistive element is long parallel to the sensing axis, and a magnetic bias field strong enough to saturate the magnetoresistive element's magnetization, Hcross, is applied perpendicular to the sensing axis. A monolithic permanent magnet is provided to generate the Hcross and it may be applied at an angle in order to counteract non-ideal fields along the sense axis direction. The high sensitivity magnetoresistive element can be used in many electrical form-factors. Six exemplary bridge configurations are described herein.

  • Patent number: 10461986
    Abstract: A data transmission method in software-defined networking (SDN) environment using transmission control protocol (TCP). An application server sends a transmission resource allocation request to a controller. The request carries an address of a sending device and an address of a receiving device. The controller determines a first transmission path and a second transmission path between the sending device and the receiving device according to the request. The first transmission path is used by the sending device to transmit data to the receiving device, and the second transmission path is used by the receiving device to transmit an acknowledgment to the sending device. The controller sends a transmission resource allocation response to the application server. The application server determines, according to the response, an initial value of a transmit window for transmitting data.
