Abstract: Systems configured to implement semi-closed wireless data transfer for rotary joints are disclosed. An example system includes first and second RF transceivers, to be included in different components of a rotary joint. The first and second RF transceivers implement elliptically (e.g., circularly) polarized antennas to realize a short distance communication link (e.g., a 60 GHz short distance communication link) between the two components of a rotary joint. The example system further includes an open-ended waveguide (OEWG) between the first and second RF transceivers, for receiving, at a first end of the OEWG, wireless signals transmitted by one of the first and second RF transceivers, transmitting the received signals through the OEWG, and radiating, at a second end of the OEWG, wireless signals indicative of the received wireless signals, to be received by another one of the first and second RF transceivers.

Abstract: A memory device comprising a memory array including memory cells to store memory data, error correcting code (ECC) circuitry configured to generate ECC data and use the ECC data to detect errors in the memory data, and an ECC circuitry checker. The ECC circuitry checker is configured to substitute the ECC data with check ECC data, compare an output of the ECC circuitry to an expected output when the substituted check ECC data is applied to the ECC circuitry, and generate an alert when the comparing indicates an error in the ECC circuitry.

Abstract: A reference electrode of an electrochemical sensor includes a substrate having internal walls defining a well and a channel. The reference electrode includes a conductive element disposed in the substrate. The well extends from a first surface of a substrate towards a second surface of the substrate. The channel is within the substrate. The channel has a first end connected to the well and a second end that is in contact with the conductive element. The reference electrode may include an additional well that extends from the first surface towards the second surface. The additional well may be connected to the second end of the channel and may be in contact with the conductive element. The channel and the wells form a flow path of a conductive medium. The flow path may be coupled to an agitating element or heating element that promotes flow of the conductive medium.

Abstract: A capacitive amplifier device and technique for mitigating the perturbation within the switchable terminals of a feedback capacitor which is produced by the switching activity performed as part of the device's operation. The capacitive amplifier contains feedback components which can be switched without producing significant kickback or poorly behaved transitions due to the inclusion of at least one dedicated circuit. The dedicated circuit is a kickback limiter circuitry which is connected to a switchable node and is designed to reduce the kickback. The technique for reducing the kickback produced can be achieved by connecting and activating the kickback limiter circuitry.

Abstract: A depth estimation system can enhance depth estimation using brightness image. Light is projected onto an object. The object reflects at least a portion of the projected light. The reflected light is at least partially captured by an image sensor, which generates image data. The depth estimation system may use the image data to generate both a depth image and a brightness image. The image sensor includes a plurality of pixels, each of which is associated with two ADCs. The ADCs receive different analog signals from the pixel and outputs different digital signals. The depth estimation system may use the different digital signals to determine the brightness value of a brightness pixel of the brightness image. The ADCs may be associated with one or more other pixels. The pixel and the one or more other pixels may be arranged in a same column in an array of the image sensor.

Abstract: A system current sensor module can accurately sense or measure system current flowing through a sense current resistor by shunting current through a gain-setting resistor and using an amplifier to measure a resulting voltage, with an output transistor controlled by the amplifier controlling current through the gain setting resistor in a manner that tends to keep the amplifier inputs at the same voltage. The resistors can be thermally coupled to maintain similar temperatures when a system current is flowing. The thermal coupling can include conducting heat from a first resistor layer carrying the current sense resistor to a thermal cage layer located beyond a second resistor layer carrying the gain-setting resistor. This preserves accuracy, including during aging.
