  • Patent number: 12600072
    Abstract: This invention involves a new and better solution to the problems associated with the premature softening of PLA filaments in the additive manufacturing of three dimensional articles. It is based upon the finding that poly(lactic acid) filaments with high crystallinity offer much better resistance to heat-induced softening. The crystalline poly(lactic acid) filament of this invention can accordingly be used in the additive manufacturing of three dimensional articles without encountering the problems associated with premature softening, such as poor quality and printer jamming The crystalline poly(lactic acid) filaments of this invention can also be used in additive manufacturing of three dimensional articles without compromising the quality of the ultimate product, reducing printing speed, increasing cost, or leading to increased printer complexity.

  • Publication number: 20260100868
    Abstract: Provided in the present disclosure are a detection circuit, a detection method and a detection apparatus for a maximum likelihood sequence, and an electronic device. The detection circuit for detecting a maximum likelihood sequence includes an equalization processing module, configured to perform equalization processing on an output signal from an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and output a soft value based on the output signal from the ADC; a state selection module, connected to the equalization processing module and configured to determine a target signal state based on the soft value; and a detection module, connected to the state selection module and configured to perform maximum likelihood sequence detection based on the target signal state and output a detection result after decoding.
