| 20100327952 | Electronic System Capable of Compensating Process, Voltage and Temperature Effects - An electronic system includes an integrated circuit, powered by a first voltage, with a first device provided therein; a detection device coupled to the first device to detect an output deviation of the first device attributed to process, voltage and temperature (PVT) effects; and a compensation device coupled to the detection device, adjusting the first voltage in response to the output deviation and outputting the first voltage to the integrated circuit to compensate for the PVT effects. The electronic system further comprises a conversion device, coupled between the detection device and the compensation device, to generate an indication signal corresponding to the output deviation for the compensation device to adjust the first voltage. In addition, the compensation device may compare and amplify a difference between a voltage level of the indication signal and a reference to linearly adjust the first voltage for compensating for the PVT effects. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20100325368 | SHARED MEMORY HAVING MULTIPLE ACCESS CONFIGURATIONS - An apparatus includes a first processor that accesses memory according to a first clock frequency, a second processor that accesses memory according to a second clock frequency, and a memory device is configurable to selectively operate according to the first clock frequency or the second clock frequency. A memory controller enables dynamic configuration of organization of the memory device to allow a first portion of the memory device to be accessed by the first processor according to the first clock frequency and a second portion of the memory device to be accessed by the second processor according to the second clock frequency. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20100265126 | Positioning System and Method Thereof - The invention provides a positioning system. In one embodiment, the positioning system comprises a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) module, a dead reckoning module, a Geographic Information System (GIS) module, and an calculating module. The GNSS module generates a first positioning data according to satellite communication. The dead reckoning module estimates a second positioning data according to a sensor's measurement data, the first positioning data, and a feedback positioning data of a previous epoch. The GIS module fits the first positioning data to a map to generate a third positioning data taken as a final output of the positioning system. The calculating module integrates the third positioning data and the second positioning data according to predetermined weights to obtain the feedback positioning data of a current epoch, which is recursively fed back to the dead reckoning module for a next estimation. | 10-21-2010 |
