Appl. No.:

11/416445

Inventors:

Wei H. Koh - Irvine CA, US
John Ho - Trabuco Canyon CA, US

Assignee:

Kingston Technology Corporation - Fountain Valley CA

International Classification:

G08B 13/14

US Classification:

3405728, 3405721, 3405727, 235492

Abstract:

A dual in-line memory module (DIMM) and a digital flash card are disclosed including an internal, built-in RFID tag in which identification and product information is contained. The RFID tag has an RF integrated circuit chip and antenna traces spreading outwardly therefrom to permit access to the information contained by the RF chip. In the case of a DIMM, the RF integrated circuit chip and its antenna traces are located on top of or between the layers of a multi-layer laminated printed wiring board substrate. In the case of a digital flash card, the RF integrated circuit chip and its antenna traces are preferably located on top of a multi-layer printed wiring board substrate and then encapsulated within a molded cover. In the alternative, the RF chip and its antenna traces are attached to the inside of a cover that extends over and is spaced above the printed wiring board substrate.

Assignee:

Kingston Digital, Inc. - Fountain Valley CA

International Classification:

H01R 13/44

US Classification:

439131

Abstract:

A mechanism for extending and retracting the electrical connector in a flash memory thumb drive is disclosed. The flash memory and USB connector are disposed on a printed circuit board. The board is slidably disposed within a housing so that the connector can be extended beyond and retracted within the housing. An arm on a pivot can be rotated in one direction so that another lever extends the board, and rotated in the opposite direction to retract it.

Assignee:

Kingston Technology Corp. - Fountain Valley CA

International Classification:

H01R 13/00

US Classification:

43962021

Abstract:

A thumb drive with a miniaturized memory storage assembly package that employs an extended chassis structure to support the miniaturized memory device within an ergonomically designed casing that is also simple to manufacture. The miniaturized memory storage assembly has a flexible latch projection extending from its side that mates with a complimentary latch aperture in the side of the connector housing. Downwardly projecting tongues in the top surface of the connector housing also prevent movement of the assembly within the housing. The elongated platform chassis extending rearwardly from the USB connector housing snaps in place in an ergonomically designed thumb drive case.

Appl. No.:

8/780906

Inventors:

John K. Ho - Scottsdale AZ

Assignee:

Honeywell Inc. - Minneapolis MN

International Classification:

G05B 902
G05B 1101
G05B 1304
G06F 1100

US Classification:

364185

Abstract:

A control architecture having improved fault detection and correction capabilities is disclosed. The system comprises primary and monitor control systems, each having an associated control signal. A fault detector generates an alarm signal based upon differences observed between the primary and monitor control signal. The detector comprises an integrator and a memory means, and alarm signals are generated based upon the total amount of difference observed over a predetermined period of time. In one embodiment of the invention, primary and monitor control signals are averaged to provide a signal that is more fault tolerant than the individual control signals.

International Classification:

B64C13/18

US Classification:

244183

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for use with an aircraft autopilot to prevent an aircraft part from striking the ground during near ground maneuvers by employing a protection circuit between the outer loop and the inner loop of the control chain between the autopilot and the control surface, the prevention circuit producing an output signal when there is a possibility of ground strike which output signal operates to reduce the control surface command signal from the inner loop to the control surface and thus be rapidly responsive to aircraft attitude changes that could produce ground strike.
