Abstract: An electrochemical sensor is provided which may be formed using micromachining techniques commonly used in the manufacture of integrated circuits. This is achieved by forming microcapillaries in a silicon substrate and forming an opening in an insulating layer to allow environmental gases to reach through to the top side of the substrate. A porous electrode is printed on the top side of the insulating layer such that the electrode is formed in the opening in the insulating layer. The sensor also comprises at least one additional electrode. The electrolyte is then formed on top of the electrodes. A cap is formed over the electrodes and electrolyte. This arrangement may easily be produced using micromachining techniques.

Abstract: A source stochastic signal is deconstructed into one or more components using a decomposition process. The decomposition process deconstructs the source stochastic signal into at least one component which encodes the oscillatory behavior of the source stochastic signal. The one or more components are mapped, using one or more trained models, to a pair of target components which encode the estimated oscillatory behavior and estimated steady-state behavior of a target stochastic signal. The target stochastic signal is then reconstructed from the oscillatory behavior target signal by shifting the oscillatory behavior target signal so that its average value aligns with the average value of the steady-state behavior target signal. The source stochastic signal and the target stochastic signals can be biological signals having a related or common origin, such as photoplethysmogram (PPG) signals and arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveforms.

Abstract: A semiconductor fabrication control system and method of operation can include: detecting a status with a control board communicatively coupled to a semiconductor fabrication tool; collecting process information from the semiconductor fabrication tool with the control board based on the status changing or a predetermined time elapsing; storing the process information to a server with the control board communicatively coupled to the server by a network connection; and engaging an auto-stop mechanism of the semiconductor fabrication tool to prevent the semiconductor fabrication tool from running based on the process information being wrong.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for RF signal limiters with diode-enhanced limiting are provided. In certain embodiments, an RF signal limiter includes a field-effect transistor (FET) stack electrically connected between an RF signal path and a limiting node, such as ground. The FET stack includes a first or topmost FET having a drain connected to the RF signal path. The gate of the topmost FET is biased through a first gate resistor. The RF signal limiter further includes a first forward enhancement diode having an anode connected to the RF signal path and a cathode connected to the gate of topmost FET.

Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to generating a bias signal with magnetic field cancellation. A voltage modulator circuit can generate a bias voltage that tracks an envelope of a radio frequency signal. For example, the bias signal can track the envelope of the radio frequency signal that is amplified by a power amplifier on a symbol-by-symbol basis. The voltage modulator circuit includes one or more pairs of switches with magnetic field cancellation.

Abstract: An apparatus and methods for detecting seat occupancy of a vehicle including a plurality of seats, one or more microphones, and one or more loudspeakers are described. The apparatus in the vehicle includes a digital signal processor coupled to a memory and configured to: determine a first set of transfer functions between the one or more microphones and the one or more loudspeakers based on a first audio signal played from the one or more loudspeakers while passengers are occupying one or more of the plurality of seats. The digital signal processor is configured to apply at least the first set of transfer functions and a second set of transfer functions for the vehicle to a neural network trained on transfer functions for a type of the vehicle to predict a seat occupancy of each of the plurality of seats based on the transfer functions.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a magnetic field sensor system, comprising an AMR magnetic field sensor and an overcurrent detection sensor. The overcurrent detection sensor comprises an AMR sensing element connected in a half bride arrangement with a field insensitive component. The output of the overcurrent detection sensor is able to monitor the strength of the magnetic field experiences by the sensor system, and detect if the magnet field goes beyond a sensing threshold of the AMR magnetic field sensor. Outside of this threshold, the AMR magnet field sensor is unable to provide a measurement of the magnetic field strength. The overcurrent detection sensor can therefore detect that the system is operating in very high magnetic fields, which in turn can indicate that there is overcurrent in the system.

Abstract: A method is provided for synchronizing a non-primary clock to a primary clock in a network. The aspects include receiving a first, a second, and a third message pair, each including a sync message with an estimated time the sync message was transmitted and a follow-up message with an actual time the sync message was transmitted. The aspects include, responsive to the second message pair, setting a neighbor rate ratio between the primary clock and the non-primary clock to a midpoint value for non-primary clock control based on an ingress timestamp delta and an egress timestamp delta. The aspects include, responsive to the third message pair, fixing a phase value of the primary clock by setting an expected primary clock time value to a current timestamp of the primary clock without modification of the midpoint value. The aspects include adjusting the non-primary clock responsive to at least the midpoint value.

Abstract: The disclosed technology generally relates to integrated circuit devices with wear out monitoring capability. An integrated circuit device includes a wear-out monitor device configured to record an indication of wear-out of a core circuit separated from the wear-out monitor device, wherein the indication is associated with localized diffusion of a diffusant within the wear-out monitor device in response to a wear-out stress that causes the wear-out of the core circuit.
