  • Publication number: 20230151696
    Abstract: An autotuner control system may be implemented to monitor and control operation of a drilling system and one or more drilling parameters during drilling operations. The control system may be a proportional integral derivative (PID) controller or a proportional integral (PI) controller, which can run iteratively during drilling operations to adjust drilling parameters and/or the controller. The PI or PID controller may apply adaptive filters to update and adjust one or more controller parameters (PID or PI), to autotune such parameters and may incorporate a stability constraint filter to constrain said adaptive filter, such as to reduce the impact of dead time and process time delays and adjust drilling parameters to match the drilling goals.

  • Publication number: 20230154899
    Abstract: A multi-component transistor structure includes components each comprising an individual, discrete, and separate component substrate and a component transistor. The component transistor includes a transistor element having a transistor element resistance. A component connection is disposed external to the transistor element and has a connection resistance. The component connection electrically connects the transistor elements in the components in parallel. The connection resistance is less than the transistor element resistance of at least one corresponding transistor element, less than an average of the transistor element resistances of all of the corresponding transistor elements, or less than the sum of all of the transistor element resistances of all of the corresponding transistor elements. The component transistors are functionally similar and at least one of the components is disposed on another different one of the components in a component stack.
