Abstract: An example method for providing cooling capacity and reducing power consumption of a server assembly is disclosed. The method includes receiving temperature information corresponding to a CPU of an electrical component in the server assembly, which further includes an equipment room, and a cabinet fan module positioned adjacent to a side of the equipment room. The cabinet fan module includes electric fans therein, and the electrical component is implemented in the equipment room. The method includes determining a current power level of the CPU, and determining, using the temperature information and the current power level, a first operating speed for the electric fans. Furthermore, the method includes combining the first operating speed with a second operating speed received from a proportional-integral-derivative controller to determine a combined operating speed. The method still further includes instructing the electric fans to operate at the combined operating speed.

Abstract: A flip-flop circuit configured to latch an input signal to an output signal is disclosed. The circuit includes a first latch circuit; and a second latch circuit coupled to the first latch circuit. In some embodiments, in response to a clock signal, the first and second latch circuits are complementarily activated so as to latch the input signal to the output signal, and the first and second latch circuits each comprises at most two transistors configured to receive the clock signal.

Abstract: A method for prelithiating a soft carbon negative electrode includes the steps of: disposing the soft carbon negative electrode and a lithium metal piece spaced apart from each other with a lithium-containing electrolyte present therebetween; prelithiating the soft carbon negative electrode at a first constant C-rate until a voltage thereof is reduced to a first predetermined voltage not greater than 0.3 V vs. Li/Li+, the first constant C-rate being not greater than 5 C; prelithiating the soft carbon negative electrode at a second constant C-rate until the voltage thereof is reduced to a second predetermined voltage lower than the first predetermined voltage, the second constant C-rate being not greater than 0.2 C and being less than the first constant C-rate; and prelithiating the soft carbon negative electrode at a prelithiation constant voltage which is not greater than the second predetermined voltage, thereby completing prelithiation of the soft carbon negative electrode.

Abstract: The invention refers to a diffusion plate and a backlight module having the diffusion plate. The diffusion plate comprises a plate-body and a plurality of pyramid-like structures arranged on a surface of the plate-body. Each pyramid-like structure has a bottom surface, a first convex portion and a second convex portion. The first convex portion and the second convex portion have different vertex angles, and therefore the pyramid-like structure can also be called as “pyramid-like structure with multiple vertex angles”. The pyramid-like structures with multiple vertex angles can increase the light splitting points, which can improve the light splitting effect of the diffusion plate. The light source of a single light-emitting diode can be divided into eight point-light sources (light splitting points) or more, which is double the number of light splitting points compared with the traditional pyramid structure with single vertex, and thus can greatly improve the light diffusion effect.

Abstract: A touch-free control device for an elevator being applicable for an electronically controlled machine of an elevator and contains: a control panel, at least one distance sensor, a microprocessor, and a servo unit. The control panel includes a plurality of keys equidistantly arranged thereon to display a floor direction or a floor number. Each distance sensor is fixed on the control panel to correspond to the plurality of keys, a distance of the sensing signal is parallel to a position of the plurality of keys, and a starting position of the sensing signal of the one distance sensor and a distance between any two keys are used to determine one of the plurality of keys selected by a user. The microprocessor is disposed on the servo unit and is electrically connected with the one distance sensor.
