An example apparatus can receive a DMA request from a device, where the DMA request comprises an address and an ID of the device that uniquely identifies the device and wherein the device is a bus mastering device. The example apparatus can access a range of addresses using the ID of the device. An example apparatus can determine whether the address is in the range of addresses and can process the DMA request responsive to verifying that the address is in the range of addresses.

Address verification for direct memory access requests

In some examples, an electronic device comprises a multiplexer, a first device interface coupled to the multiplexer, a second device interface coupled to the multiplexer, a storage controller coupled to the multiplexer, and a controller coupled to the first device interface. The storage controller is to control a storage device. The controller is to determine a mode based on a command for the controller to access the storage controller and, based on the mode, cause the multiplexer to adjust access of the second device interface to the storage controller.

Multiplexed storage accesses

A method is described in which electronic circuitry of a mobile device is powered by a plurality of battery cells that are selectably connectable in series and in parallel. The energy utilization of the circuitry is measured during operation. The power efficiency for series and parallel configurations of the battery cells is determined based on the measured energy utilization. The battery cells are configured in series or in parallel based on which of the series and parallel configurations is determined to provide a higher efficiency of energy utilization during operation.

Efficiency based battery configurations

In some examples, an adapter includes a COMPACTFLASH EXPRESS (CFX) connector interface to connect to a CFX connector of a computer, and a device connector interface to connect to any of a plurality of different devices comprising different types of interfaces. The device connector interface includes an indicator settable to any of a plurality of different states to represent a respective type of the different types of interfaces when a device is connected to the adapter, and the CFX connector interface comprising an indicator connected to the indicator of the device connector interface.

CompactFlash express (CFX) adapters

In some examples, a system includes a memory resource, a communication channel to allow a bus mastering capable device to access the memory resource, and a controller to block the system from responding to a request from the bus mastering capable device for accessing the memory resource until the controller has authorized the bus mastering capable device.

Blocking systems from responding to bus mastering capable devices

In some examples, a non-transitory machine readable medium storing instructions executable by a processor to store display information in a private memory hidden from an operating system (OS), and divisibly virtualize a contiguous planar display into a first area as a main display and a second area as a second display separate from the main display, where the continuous planar display is divisibly virtualized responsive to exposure of the display information to the OS or the display information being directly provided to a graphics processing unit (GPU).

Private virtualized displays

A technique includes sensing a wireless charging station that includes a wireless charging transmitter and determining a status for the machine based at least in part on the sensing of the wireless charging station. The technique also includes assisting with a process to wirelessly transfer power to the machine, where assisting includes causing the machine to provide guidance to the user based at least in part on the determined status.

Assisting wireless transfer of power to a machine

An example method of managing multi-architecture system input in accordance with aspects of the present disclosure includes receiving an input from a first processing unit in the multi-architecture system, receiving an input from a second processing unit in the multi-architecture system, combining the inputs, and providing the combined inputs to a display unit. The display unit displays the combined inputs in a configurable orientation.

Multi architecture manager

Example implementations relate to wireless charging devices. In an example, a wireless charging device includes a housing and circuitry including a power transmitting coil, where the wireless charging device does not include a power amplifier or a power converter.

Wireless charging devices

An example of a system includes a electronic device having a rechargeable battery, a charging module to charge the rechargeable battery and moveable between a retracted position and an extended position to provide a stand during charging of the rechargeable battery, and a communication module to wirelessly transfer and receive data during charging of the rechargeable battery. The example system also includes a charging mat to charge the rechargeable battery when the charging module is in the extended position and coupled to the charging mat and a docking module to wirelessly transfer data to and wirelessly receive data from the communication module of the electronic device.

Electronic device with charging module

Examples disclosed herein provide an accessory device for a computing device. The accessory device can include a first section, a second section, and a third section. The first section can include one or more input devices. The second section can be pivotally connected to the first section at a first end of the second section. The third section can be pivotally connected to the second section at a second end of the second section. The protective cover can include a connector to electrically couple the input devices with the computing device when the connector is to connect with a port of the device. Motion sensors disposed within the accessory device can be used to determine an angle of the computing device with respect to the accessory device.

Accessory device for a computing device

Examples disclosed herein provide an electronic device to allow wireless charging of the electronic device when it is operated in various operation modes. The electronic device can include a base member comprising a top surface and a bottom surface opposite the top surface and a display member rotatably connected to the base member. The electronic device can include a rechargeable battery and a receiver to wirelessly charge the rechargeable battery when the bottom surface of the base member is to be placed atop a transmitter. As an example, the bottom surface of the base member is to remain atop the transmitter while the electronic device is in different operation modes.

Electronic devices for wireless charging

Example implementations relate to wireless gigabit alliance (WiGig) enabled computing systems including WiGig accessories. In one example, a WiGig accessory includes a connector to couple the WiGig accessory to a universal serial bus (USB) port of a computing device that is separate and distinct from the WiGig accessory, and a WiGig component to form a WiGig enabled communication system having a wireless peripheral component interconnect express (PCIe) communication capability when coupled to the computing device.

Wireless gigabit alliance (WIGIG) accessories

A computing device can include a wireless power module and a haptic module to move the computing device in a direction. A controller in the computing device can detect a misalignment of the wireless power module with a wireless power transmitter. The controller can control the haptic module to move the computing device to be aligned with the wireless power transmitter.

Wireless power alignment

In a method and system for assessing video quality, an analog video signal to be assessed is input. At least part of the incoming video signal is converted to digital values. The digital values are stored. A detector determines whether any stored digital value is outside an acceptable range.
