Aspects of this disclosure relate to adjusting fluid flow using magnetically sensitive particles. Fluid can flow through an opening in a container. Magnetically sensitive particles can be confined within the container. A magnetic field can be applied to move the magnetically sensitive particles in the container to adjust flow of the fluid through the opening.

Flow adjustment based on particle movement in response to magnetic field

The disclosed technology generally relates to electrical overstress protection devices, and more particularly to electrical overstress monitoring devices for detecting electrical overstress events in semiconductor devices. In one aspect, an electrical overstress monitor and/or protection device includes a two different conductive structures configured to electrically arc in response to an EOS event and a sensing circuit configured to detect a change in a physical property of the two conductive structures caused by the EOS event. The two conductive structures have facing surfaces that have different shapes.

Wearable device with energy harvesting

Aspects of this disclosure relate to particles that can move in response to a magnetic field. A system can include a container, particles within the container, and a magnetic structure integrated with the container. The magnetic structure can magnetically interact with both an external magnetic field and the particles. Related methods are disclosed including magnetic field detection methods based on detection of particles within a container.

Magnetically sensitive particles and magnetic structure

Aspects of this disclosure relate to one or more particles that move within a container in response to a magnetic field. A measurement circuit is configured to output an indication of the magnetic field based on position of the one or more particles.

Magnetic field measurement using container with particle

The disclosed technology generally relates to integrated circuit devices with wear out monitoring capability. An integrated circuit device includes a wear-out monitor device configured to record an indication of wear-out of a core circuit separated from the wear-out monitor device, wherein the indication is associated with localized diffusion of a diffusant within the wear-out monitor device in response to a wear-out stress that causes the wear-out of the core circuit.

Spark gap structures for detection and protection against electrical overstress events

Exposure monitor device

A memory device comprising a memory array including memory cells to store memory data, error correcting code (ECC) circuitry configured to generate ECC data and use the ECC data to detect errors in the memory data, and an ECC circuitry checker. The ECC circuitry checker is configured to substitute the ECC data with check ECC data, compare an output of the ECC circuitry to an expected output when the substituted check ECC data is applied to the ECC circuitry, and generate an alert when the comparing indicates an error in the ECC circuitry.

Error correction code validation

Magnetic field sensing based on particle position within container

There is provided an analog signal gauge that monitors an analog signal at a node and a non-volatile memory element to store an event that occurs at the node when a certain criteria, such as exceeding a maximum safe threshold, is satisfied. This way, the analog signal gauge can help to provide an accurate picture of the operating characteristics in the analog circuit which it is monitoring, including indications of faults that occur in the analog system.
