| 20110107337 | Hierarchical Reconfigurable Computer Architecture - A reconfigurable hierarchical computer architecture having N levels, where N is an integer value greater than one, wherein said N levels include a first level including a first computation block including a first data input, a first data output and a plurality of computing nodes interconnected by a first connecting mechanism, each computing node including an input port, a functional unit and an output port, the first connecting mechanism capable of connecting each output port to the input port of each other computing node; and a second level including a second computation block including a second data input, a second data output and a plurality of the first computation blocks interconnected by a second connecting means for selectively connecting the first data output of each of the first computation blocks and the second data input to each of the first data inputs and for selectively connecting each of the first data outputs to the second data output. | 05-05-2011 |
| 20090058363 | BATTERY CHARGE CONTROL CIRCUIT - A DC-DC voltage down-converter for an electronic device supplied by a battery and having a bus interface for the interconnection with another electronic device capable of supplying electric power is provided. The DC-DC voltage down-converter includes a terminal coupled to a voltage supply line of the bus interface and operable to receive a input current from the another electronic device. The DC-DC voltage down-converter further includes an electric energy storage element coupled between the battery and the terminal, the electric energy storage element being operable to storage/release electric energy and a drive circuit arranged to control the storage/release of the electric energy storage element, so as to cause an electric power generated by the input current supplied by the another electronic device through the voltage supply line to re-charge the battery. The DC-DC voltage down-converter still further includes a input current feedback control circuit coupled to the terminal and arranged to monitor a value of the input current and generate a corresponding input current indication; the drive circuit configured to control the storage/release of the electric energy storage element according to the input current indication. | 03-05-2009 |
