372 3802, 372 381, 372 3807, 372 4301

A high speed optical channel including an optical driver and a photodetector in a CMOS photoreceiver. The optical channel driver includes a FET driver circuit driving a passive element (e. g. , an integrated loop inductor) and a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) diode. The VCSEL diode is biased by a bias supply. The integrated loop inductor may be integrated in CMOS technology and on the same IC chip as either/both of the FET driver and the VCSEL diode. The photodetector is in a semiconductor (silicon) layer that may be on an insulator layer, i. e. , SOI. One or more ultrathin metal electrodes (

An optically connectable circuit board and optical components mounted thereon. At least one component includes optical transceivers and provides an optical connection to the board. Electronic components may be directly connected to the board electrically or optically. Also, some electronic components may be indirectly connected optically to the board through intermediate optical components.

385/050000, 385/014000, 398/164000

An apparatus and method for forming a staircase arrangement for the connection of optical waveguides between a card and backplane. A card having optical waveguides and electrical conductors embedded in the card has an edge ending in a staircase arrangement with optical fiber-ribbons protruding from the edge. A guidance structure is connected to the edge and contains channels to guide and align the optical fiber-ribbons. A backplane having embedded optical waveguides and electrical conductors also has an edge ending in a staircase arrangement with a guidance structure connected to the edge and tapered openings which receive and guide the optical fiber-ribbons into close proximity with the optical waveguides and forming a staircase arrangement of connected waveguides between a card and backplane.

A hardware monitor is used to monitor the sequence of instructions executed during a miss cluster. The monitor groups each cache miss into a miss cluster, and the miss penalty associated with each cluster is determined by identifying a set of instructions that were executed during the miss cluster. The finite cache running time is then calculated for the set of instructions that occurred during the miss cluster. Additionally, an infinite cache running time is determined for the same set of instructions that occurred during the miss cluster, where the infinite cache running time is the time needed to execute this set of instructions in the absence of any miss. The cost of the miss cluster is then calculated by measuring the difference between the finite cache running time and the infinite cache running time.

A combination microwave and refrigerator system is constructed having a single plug input supply. The microwave oven is adapted to provide power to a refrigerator, and to auxiliary receptacles adapted for low power operation. The current to the low power receptacles and the refrigerator is controlled by the controller for the microwave oven according to the duty cycles of the connected appliances to avoid overload conditions.
