20080252278System and Method for Controlling a Hysteretic Mode Converter - A system and method for controlling a conversion frequency of a hysteretic mode voltage converter. A digital control loop comprises a timing measure unit having a first input coupled to a reference clock and a second input coupled to a clock based on a switching of the switching of the converter, and an on time adjust unit coupled to the timing measure unit. The timing measure unit counts a number of clock ticks of a clock signal provided by the clock occurring during a period of time specified by a number of clock ticks of a reference clock signal provided by the reference clock. The on time adjust unit adjusts an on time control signal based on the count of the number of clock ticks of the clock signal to alter a frequency of the switching.10-16-2008
20090292840POWER EFFICIENT METHOD FOR CONTROLLING AN OSCILLATOR IN A LOW POWER SYNCHRONOUS SYSTEM WITH AN ASYNCHRONOUS I2C BUS - In a method and apparatus for saving power in a device coupled to a bus, the device is placed to operate in a power saving mode by powering off a selective portion of the device including a device clock. If data communication over the bus is addressed to the device then the selective portion of the device, including the device clock, is triggered to return to a power on state from the power off state. The data communication is stored in shadow registers using a bus clock while the device clock is transitioning to the power on state. The data communication stored in the shadow registers is transferred to a register map under the control of the device clock operating in the power on state. Upon completion of the transfer of the data communication to the register map, the device is returned to operate in the power saving mode.11-26-2009

20090056859Apparatus for converting a multi-ply paper product - An apparatus for providing a multi-ply embossed paper product having a first pressure roll; an embossing roll with a plurality of embossing protrusions, each embossing protrusion comprises a distal end; an adhesive application roll; a marrying roll; and a second pressure roll. The first pressure roll and the embossing roll are juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship to form a first nip therebetween. The first nip has a first nip width. The first pressure roll and the embossing roll are adapted to receive a first paper web at the first nip. The adhesive application roll and the embossing roll are juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship to form a gap therebetween. The adhesive application roll and the embossing roll are adapted to receive the first paper web, after the first paper web has traversed the first nip, at the gap. The marrying roll is juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship with the embossing roll to form a third nip therebetween. The marrying roll and embossing roll are adapted to receive the first paper web and a second paper web, after the first paper web has traversed the gap, and marry the first paper web to the second paper web at the third nip. The second pressure roll and the embossing roll are juxtaposed in an axially parallel relationship to form a second nip therebetween. The second nip has a second nip width, and wherein the second pressure roll and embossing roll are adapted to receive the first paper web and the second paper web, after the first paper web and the second paper web have traversed the third nip, at the second nip.03-05-2009
20090056860Method for converting a multi-ply paper product - A process for manufacturing a multi-ply paper product, the process having the steps of: providing a first paper web; providing a second paper web; and providing an apparatus.
