Method And Apparatus For Mitigating Electromagnetic Waves
US Patent:
6960719, Nov 1, 2005
Filed:
Oct 20, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/689127
Inventors:
Eugene Arthur Miksch - Loveland CO, US
Robert J. Blakely - Fort Collins CO, US
Robert J. Blakely - Fort Collins CO, US
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
H05K009/00
US Classification:
174 35GC, 361816, 361818
Abstract:
The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for mitigating electromagnetic waves emanating from an electronic device. The apparatus comprises a cover member, a bight extending from one end of the cover member, and a retaining plate spaced from the cover member and connected to the bight to provide a biasing force away from the cover member and towards an electronic device. The cover member is configured to overlie an opening in the chassis of the electronic device and the retaining plate is configured to abut cabling extending out of the chassis. In this way, the apparatus attenuates electromagnetic waves radiating emanating from an opening in a chassis of an electronic device and conducted along cabling as a noise signal superimposed upon the intended signal.

Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
G06F 1/12, H03L 7/00
US Classification:
713400, 713500, 713503, 713600, 331 16, 331 17, 331 25, 331 34, 327 3
Abstract:
System and methods of synchronizing reference frequencies are disclosed. In an exemplary implementation, a method may comprise providing separate reference frequencies for each of a plurality of operational components. The method may also comprise connecting the separate reference frequencies to one another in a modular, fault-tolerant circuit topology. The method may also comprise synchronizing the separate reference frequencies so that each of the operational components operate at the same frequency.

International Classification:
G06F 12/00
US Classification:
711115, 711 5, 711105, 711170
Abstract:
A memory architecture includes at least one unbuffered dual inline memory module (DIMM). At least one advanced memory buffer (AMB) provides an interface between the at least one DIMM and a host memory controller.
Component Connector
US Patent:
7270572, Sep 18, 2007
Filed:

Robert Blakely - Fort Collins CO, US
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P. - Houston TX
International Classification:
H01R 13/648
US Classification:
439608, 439108, 439607
Abstract:
Systems, methodologies, media, and other embodiments associated with connecting a cable to a computer component are described. One exemplary system embodiment includes a component connector comprising at least one signal pin and a plurality of ground pins positioned along a parameter of the at least one signal pin to surround the at least one signal pin. The example system may also include a receptacle connected to and in electrical contact with the plurality of ground pins. The receptacle can be configured with an opening to allow a cable connector to connect to the at least one signal pin.

International Classification:
G06F 1/00, H01F 19/00, H02J 1/00, H02M 7/00
US Classification:
713300, 363 13, 323355, 307 43
Abstract:
An electronic device is disclosed herein. An embodiment of the electronic device comprises an electronic component, wherein the electronic component is operated by a DC voltage. The electronic component comprises an AC to DC converter that converts an AC voltage to the DC voltage, wherein the RMS value of the AC voltage is greater than the DC voltage. The electronic device further comprises a power supply comprising an input and an output. The input is connectable to a line voltage and the output is connected to the AC to DC converter of electronic component. The AC voltage is output by the output of the power supply.
