| 20110161560 | ERASE COMMAND CACHING TO IMPROVE ERASE PERFORMANCE ON FLASH MEMORY - Systems and methods are disclosed to reduce the number of partial logical groups that are erased by writing erase patterns to memory in a non-volatile memory system. When a non-aligned erase command is received, the logical addresses of data associated with the erase command may be marked as erased. If the logical group corresponds to the size of a physical metablock, the controller may also issue a physical erase command for complete logical groups within the erase command. For those parts of the erase command that encompass only partial logical groups, the ranges of the logical block addresses marked for erasure are stored. As subsequent erase commands are received the address ranges of the erase commands are added to the previously stored address ranges. When a set of erase commands spans an entire logical group, the logical group is marked for physical erasure in its entirety. | 06-30-2011 |

| 20080221850 | Effective current density and continuum models for conducting networks - An Effective Current Density (ECD) method for continuum representation of conducting networks is disclosed. ECD is a method for representing large numbers of conductors in a single, compact model for use in circuit simulation and in other such applications. The models created through the application of ECD are continuum models, valid in both long and short wavelength limits, with the important property that the computation time does not grow with the number of wires in the network. Therefore, in circuits where the method can be applied, there is no limit to the number of conducting wires or components in the network to be simulated. Circuits with an unlimited number of conductors can be simulated using modest computing hardware and at an approximately constant order of simulation complexity. | 09-11-2008 |

| 20090033483 | Amplifier for Multi-Use of Single Environmental Sensor - A detection system in which a single sensor is employed to detect an extensive range of a parameter The output signal from the sensor is fed to the input of the electrical circuit, having a feedback loop, wherein the electrical circuit has a non-linear transfer characteristic. The non-linear transfer characteristic is achieved by changing the behaviour of the feedback loop of the electrical circuit at a predetermined level of input signal. The output of the circuit has a proportional relationship with the input until the input signal reaches this predetermined value, whereupon the behaviour of the feedback loop changes and the relationship of the output to the input of the circuit changes. While the input signal is above the predetermined value, the output of the circuit has a linear but disproportionate relationship with the input at a gradient different to that when the input signal is below the predetermined value. Further, the behaviour of the feedback loop changes to create a knee point in the response between the proportional and the linear parts of the characteristic. In this way, an overall non-linear transfer characteristic is produced by the electrical circuit, the transfer characteristic having with a well-defined knee point. The resolution of input signals below the knee point may be greater than the resolution of signals above the knee point. | 02-05-2009 |
