US Patent:

7882345, Feb 1, 2011

Filed:

Sep 29, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/864993

Inventors:

Michael J. Christensen - Orem UT, US

Assignee:

Symantec Corporation - Mountain View CA

International Classification:

G06F 15/177

US Classification:

713 2, 713 1, 709217, 709220

Abstract:

The disclosure is directed to systems and methods for processor detection in a pre-boot execution environment. In one example, a client initiates a boot process by transmitting a pre-boot image request identifying the client's processor architecture. A boot server replies to the request and transmits a non-booting image configured to precisely determine the processor installed on the client. The non-booting image then initiates a second pre-boot image request including the precise identification of the processor installed on the client. The boot server may then proceed with the boot process, transmitting subsequent boot code precisely configured for the installed processor.

Filed:

Feb 11, 1985

Appl. No.:

6/700787

Inventors:

John K. Lauchner - Tempe AZ
Michael S. Christensen - Mesa AZ
Paul J. Alonge - Chandler AZ

Assignee:

Motorola, Inc. - Schaumburg IL

International Classification:

H03K 100

US Classification:

307106

Abstract:

An apparatus and method is disclosed that produces a high powered sub-microsecond pulse. The present invention utilizes a set of parallel high speed switches and drivers to switch a Darlington Pulse forming network that is charged by a resonant charging circuit. The Darlington Pulse forming network produces a negative pulse which is inverted in a coaxial inverter and then amplified in a coaxial line transformer to provide the high powered short duration pulse signal.
