  • Patent number: 11943853
    Abstract: A full voltage sampling circuit includes a main sampling circuit, an assist sampling circuit and a processing circuit. The main sampling circuit receives first and second input voltages, and outputs a first sampling signal according to the first and second input voltages. The first sampling signal represents a differential voltage which indicates a difference between the first input voltage and the second input voltage. The assist sampling circuit receives the first and second input voltages, and outputs a second sampling signal according to the first and second input voltages. The second sampling signal represents the differential voltage. The processing circuit is coupled to the main sampling circuit and the assist sampling circuit, and selects a larger one of currents or voltages of the first and second sampling signals as a sampling result to be outputted.

  • Patent number: 11919574
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a substrate, at least one type of tuning material, and a composite material. The substrate has an interface surface or material that manifests, in response to light in a color spectrum, a particular color and a first thermal load. The particular color is associated with the first thermal load. The at least one type of tuning material manifests, in response to light in the color spectrum, the particular color and a second thermal load. The particular color is associated with the second thermal load. The first thermal load is different from the second thermal load. The composite material includes the interface surface or material and the at least one type of tuning material. The composite material manifests, in response to light in the color spectrum, the particular color and a tuned thermal load which is different than the first thermal load and the second thermal load.

  • Publication number: 20230398894
    Abstract: This application discloses a charging control apparatus and method, and an electric vehicle. The charging control apparatus includes: a signal processing module, configured to: receive a first control pilot signal sent by power sourcing equipment, and send a high-level signal of target duration to a wake-up module based on the first control pilot signal; and the wake-up module, configured to: wake up a battery management system after duration in which the high-level signal is received reaches the target duration. With the use of the charging control apparatus, even if power is on again after a power failure in a charging process, there is no need to remove a charging connector from and re-insert the charging connector into a charging socket or restart an electric vehicle/a charging pile.

  • Publication number: 20230403266
    Abstract: A computing system includes a virtual server providing first and second virtual desktops. A first client computing device accesses the first virtual desktop via a communications network, and shares content of the first virtual desktop as a screen sharer in a collaboration session. A second client computing device accesses the second virtual desktop via the communications network, and displays content of the second virtual desktop in a virtual desktop window. The second client computing device participates in the collaboration session as a screen viewer, and receives the shared screen content of the first virtual desktop. The shared screen content is displayed by the second client computing device in a shared screen window, with the shared screen window being separate from the virtual desktop window.
