20140166305 | MILLING CUTTER HAVING UNDULATING CHIP BREAKER - A cutting element includes a front face and leading face extending between a first and second sides. A leading cutting edge is located at an intersection of the front face and the leading face, and an undulating back-up cutting edge is formed in the front face and extends from the first side to the second side, and defines a leading surface and a trailing surface. A method includes cutting with a tool having a blade coupled to a tool body, and a cutting element coupled to a forward surface of the blade. The cutting element has a leading cutting edge formed at an intersection of front and leading faces, and an undulating back-up cutting edge formed in the front face and defining leading and trailing surfaces. The leading cutting edge of the cutting element contacts and cuts a work piece. | 06-19-2014 |

20090204801 | MECHANISM FOR SECURE DOWNLOAD OF CODE TO A LOCKED SYSTEM - Techniques for securely downloading of boot code to a locked system. | 08-13-2009 |
20090204803 | HANDLING OF SECURE STORAGE KEY IN ALWAYS ON DOMAIN - Techniques for handling a secure storage key maintain the key in an always on domain and restore the key to the encryption/decryption engine when the engine is turned back on. The secure storage key however is only accessible by the boot loader code, which provides a secure chain of trust. In addition, the techniques allow the secure storage key to be updated. | 08-13-2009 |
20090205053 | Confidential information protection system and method - Efficient and effective permission confidential information protection systems and methods are described. The secure information protection systems and methods facilitate storage of confidential information in a manner safe from rogue software access. In one embodiment, a confidential information protection method is implemented in hardware and facilitates protection against software and/or Operating System hacks. In one exemplary implementation, a confidential information protection method includes setting a permission sticky bit flag to a default state upon system set up. The permission sticky bit flag access permission indication is adjusted at system reset in accordance with an initial application instruction. Access to the confidential information is restricted in accordance with the permission sticky bit and the permission sticky bit is protected from adjustments attempting to violate the permission indication. For example, another software application can not access or alter confidential information (e.g., an encryption key, initialization vector, etc.) if a permission sticky bit is designated as the highest security rating (e.g., disabling read permission and write permission until system reset). | 08-13-2009 |

20090108976 | TRANSFORMER BOBBIN WITH ISOLATION WIND - A transformer bobbin has a body with first and second ends spaced along a longitudinal axis. Conductive pins are mounted in the ends and dimensioned for electrical and mechanical connection with first and second wire windings received in the body. An opening in the body is dimensioned to receive a ferrous core, and an external winding surface on the body extends between the first and second ends. First and second margin barriers are provided inwardly of the first and second ends of the winding surface. The margin barriers have a height that extends a predetermined dimension that closely approximates the height of the first winding. The margin barriers electrically isolate the first winding from the second winding that is thereafter received over the body. Preferably, at least one of the first and second margin barriers includes channels therethrough dimensioned to receive the first winding wire for connection with the pins. | 04-30-2009 |
20110095693 | FLUORESCENT LAMP BALLAST WITH ELECTRONIC PREHEAT CIRCUIT - Fluorescent lamp ballasts and methods are disclosed in which a resonant impedance of a self-oscillating inverter is modified to control the inverter frequency to selectively preheat lamp cathodes using power from the inverter output during a preheating period after power is applied and to change the inverter frequency to a different range following ignition of the lamp. | 04-28-2011 |

20090322765 | Method and Apparatus for Configuring Multiple Displays Associated with a Computing System - A method and apparatus for configuring multiple displays associated with a computing system begins when display preferences regarding at least one of the multiple displays are received. The display preferences indicate desired selections of which images are to be displayed on which displays and may be based on user selections or application selections. Having received the display preferences, a coupling controller within a video graphics processing circuit determines whether the display preferences can be fulfilled in observance of configuration properties. The configuration properties include limitations of the displays (e.g., refresh rate, resolution) and the computing system (e.g., display controller capabilities) and/or rules of the computing system (e.g., at least one screen must be actively coupled at all times). If the display preferences can be fulfilled, the coupling controller causes display controllers to be operably coupled to displays. If, however, the display preferences cannot be fulfilled, the coupling controller determines whether the current configuration can be reconfigured to allow the display preferences to be fulfilled with minimal affect on the perceived current configuration. If so, the coupling controller causes the video graphics processing circuitry to be reconfigured. | 12-31-2009 |

20090314827 | STACKABLE CORRUGATED BOX - A stackable corrugated box made from a foldable blank comprising a base having two opposed first edges and second edges, wall portions extending from the first edges, side wall portions extending from the second edges. The wall portions comprise a first part connected to the base and a second part connected to the first part, provided with flaps. The first parts include crush and knife cut features capable of flexing outward. When the box is erected, the side wall portions are folded perpendicularly to the base and connected via the flaps to upwardly directed walls defined by the first and second parts also folded perpendicularly to the base. The upwardly directed walls are provided with projecting tabs, so that when the box is stacked on another similar box, the crush and knife cut features flex outward creating space for the tabs from the box placed below. | 12-24-2009 |
