Inventors: Derek William Wright

Publication number: US20220094770A1
Application number: 17/457,599

Abstract:
The disclosure describes wireless communication systems. The wireless communication system includes first memory, second memory, a direct memory access (DMA) controller, an encryption engine in-line between the DMA controller and the second memory, a first microprocessor, and a second microprocessor. The first microprocessor communicates with other systems that generate application data to be wirelessly transmitted. The application data to be wirelessly transmitted is stored in the second memory and programs the DMA controller to transfer packets of the application data to the first memory from the second memory. The encryption engine receives the packets of the application data from the DMA controller, encrypts the packets to generate encrypted application data packets, and outputs the encrypted application data packets for storage to the first memory.

Publication number: US20220094872A1
Application number: 17/538,092

Abstract:
An apparatus comprises a first photodiode, a second photodiode, a quantizer, a memory, and a controller configured to: set a first exposure period in which the first photodiode generates a first charge; set a second exposure period in which the second photodiode generates a second charge, the second exposure period being set based on the first exposure period and at least one of: a first time associated with a read out operation of the memory to a second apparatus, or a second time associated with a quantization operation by the quantizer; perform, using the quantizer, the first quantization operation of the first charge to generate a first digital output; and perform, using the quantizer, a second quantization operation of the second charge to generate a second digital output.
