104 results about "Power Architecture" patented technology

Power Architecture is a registered trademark for similar RISC instruction sets for microprocessors developed and manufactured by such companies as IBM, Freescale, AppliedMicro, LSI, e2v and Synopsys. The governing body is Power.org, comprising over 40 companies and organizations. The term "Power Architecture" should not be confused with IBM's different generations of "POWER Instruction Set Architecture" where the former is a broad term including all products based on newer POWER, PowerPC and Cell processors, and the latter is a deprecated instruction set for IBM RISC processors of the 1990s, replaced by the PowerPC/Power ISA derivative of the POWER ISA. Power Architecture is a family name describing processor architecture, software, toolchain, community and end-user appliances and not a strict term describing specific products or technologies.

Power architecture and braking circuits for DC motor-propelled vehicle

A dynamic braking circuit that can be operated with stability over both high and low speed regimes. This circuit has the advantage of using fewer components than previous circuits. In addition, when in braking mode, the armature and field currents tend to oppose each other across the main braking switch hence reducing electromechanical stresses when in high current regime. According to a second embodiment, a dynamic braking circuit implements a “soft” extended braking function with the capability of providing a smoother braking action at high braking effort at little extra cost resulting from the replacement of a contactor by a reverser. The main advantages of this preferred embodiment are that the current generated by the armatures during braking can be controlled independently from the excitation of the field windings at low speeds and that it enables simultaneous self supply, regeneration and dynamic braking.
