20090116328 | POWER-OFF APPARATUS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS - Apparatus, methods, and systems are disclosed, including those that are to prevent a bias voltage from rising to a higher level than a storage node voltage as the bias voltage transitions to a ground level. For example a first voltage generator may be utilized to generate a bias voltage to bias a transistor in a memory cell in a memory array. A second voltage generator may be utilized to generate an plate voltage. The memory cell may include a transistor on a substrate and a capacitor. The capacitor connects from a drain of the transistor to the plate voltage. The storage node voltage is located at the drain of the transistor. A power controller may provide an off signal to the first and second voltage generators. The bias voltage may then transition to ground from a voltage less than zero volts. The rate of the bias voltage rise to ground is such that the bias voltage is maintained at less than or equal to the storage node voltage during the transition time period. | 05-07-2009 |

20090006880 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR POWER SAVING DELAY LOCKED LOOP CONTROL - The delay locked loop (“DLL”) delay interval can be locked to stop the DLL from wasting power in unnecessarily switching to synchronize the device with the DLL is associated to the system clock. This is achieved by adding logic sensing when a DRAM device will not imminently be called upon to output data and when the device has stabilized. Waiting for the DLL delay interval to stabilize before locking the delay interval still allows the DLL to immediately and effectively resume operations when the DLL is needed to synchronize the output of the DRAM device with the system clock. The DLL delay interval can be locked, together with the DLL clock, after the DRAM device is deselected by the chip select control line, after a number of no operation commands have been received, and/or after any command issued to the DRAM device has been completed. | 01-01-2009 |

20090320234 | Carpet cleaning wand having uniform air flow distribution - A novel suction head for a carpet cleaning wand wherein either or both of two designs are utilized. Each design utilizes a generally fan shaped internal suction channel that fares smoothly between an exhaust channel of substantially round cross section and lips of an intake opening having a much wider and substantially rectangular cross section. The internal suction channel utilized by one design is formed with a cross section that is non-uniform when viewed along the direction of air flow through the wand, which is a dramatic contrast to the uniform cross sections of known current designs. Another design utilizes an internal airfoil interrupting the internal suction channel along its centerline for diverting the air flow more towards the outside edges of the internal suction channel. | 12-31-2009 |
