Systems and methods for adaptive power factor correction are described that utilize a circuit that senses a current or frequency of a line and controls one or more switches to vary the capacitance of the circuit based on the measured current or frequency. Two or more branches can be used to allow for the capacitance of the circuit to be varied over time in response to a change in the measured current or frequency. Using such systems and methods, a high power factor can be maintained even for higher line frequencies and lighter loads.

Systems and methods are described herein for pairing wireless peripherals with networked devices. Knowledge of the location of the networked devices can be used to properly route or transmit audio to paired wireless peripherals, regardless of whether the wireless peripherals are paired with the correct networked devices provided they are networked with other potential devices. This can be accomplished by prompting users to select an input based on an audio challenge to determine which of the wireless peripherals should be mapped to which of the networked hosts.

Wireless cross pairing resolution on interconnected devices

Enhanced short circuit damage protection by using circuit card and electronic assembly features to steer liquids, including water, onto detector arrays. In a typical implementation, a circuit card has detection elements in one or more places implemented as artwork on an outer circuit layer. The finished circuit card assembly is conformal coated with masked areas over detection artwork. When the masking is removed, channels are left behind for liquids to flow toward and pool over detection artwork. In other implementations through shaping, additive or subtractive manufacturing processes, cavities are left behind for liquids to collect over detection artwork.
