Sensor data is collected from a sensor monitoring a tension generating device of an exercise machine. The sensor data is analyzed to determine whether the sensor data is within a specification. In an event that the sensor data is not within the specification, an error stop mode is entered for the tension generating device.

Exercise machine safety enhancements

A memory controller includes a register to store phase offset value. The phase offset value represents a phase relationship between a memory request signal component and a reference signal. The phase offset value is established through write and read back testing. Transmit circuitry applies the phase offset value in launching the memory request signal component from the IC memory controller to an IC memory device.

Memory controller with staggered request signal output

An information related to the position of an actuator coupled to a cable which is coupled to a motor is received. A filter is used to provide an input to a motor controller coupled to the motor, to adjust torque on the motor such that a strength curve is implemented relative to the position of the actuator.

Digital strength training

A first determination that a range of motion of a user of an exercise machine is between pre-determined motion thresholds is made. While the range of motion of the user is between the pre-determined motion thresholds, a velocity of the cable being below a pre-determined velocity threshold is determined. In response to determining that the velocity of the cable being below the pre-determined velocity threshold while the range of motion of the user is between the pre-determined motion thresholds, a second determination that the user should be spotted is made, Torque of a motor is reduced based at least in part on the second determination that the user should be spotted.

In an event the sensor data is not within the specification, an error stop mode is entered for the tension generating device.

A memory device includes a first receive circuit to receive a control signal of a memory access request from a memory controller. A second receive circuit receives a timing signal from the memory controller. The memory device includes circuitry to transmit, during a calibration mode of operation, feedback to the memory controller along a data path, the feedback indicative of a phase relationship been the control signal and the timing signal.

A memory controller includes an interface to receive a data strobe signal and corresponding read data. The data strobe signal and the read data correspond to a read command issued by the memory controller, and the read data is received in accordance with the data strobe signal and an enable signal. A circuit in the memory controller is to dynamically adjust a timing offset between the enable signal and the data strobe signal, and control logic is to issue a supplemental read command in accordance with a determination that a time interval since a last read command issued by the memory controller exceeds a predetermined value.
