## :memo: Logs
## Action Item Updates
* [cont] Quanray will provide a detailed simulation model and FPGA implementation for the Duplex method: Quanray to send the advancement report before the next meeting scheduled on July 20th->open

* [cont] Modified FPC Design and Delivery: Quanray sent the FPC and Type-A PCB to Japan which have been received-> closed
* [cont] Battery-Assisted mode examination: A good combination of commercial voltage booster and Jupiter1 chip are still in pipeline according to Keio->closed
* [cont] Updates regarding the Toppan contract : Toppan issued a quote to Keio. Keio will start the paperwork now->done
* [cont] Production and Delivery of
* Type-A PCBs(20)-> delivered, thank you!
* RFIC (300)
* RFIC for Arizon Japan Antenna for 2021(150)
* RFIC for Toppan(enclosed in a tray)(50)
* A prototype is required for the research community concerning about 100 dies for this purpose ->open

## Conclusions:
* Duplex simulation update: Quanray reviewed the simulation results and will send a compiled document including FPGA simulation for review by Keio. It is expected to be delivered within this week.
* FPC and Type-A PCB delivery: Both have been received. E-Garde measured the performance and the FPG results look good.
* Battery-Assisted mode examination: Update will be discussed in the next meeting regarding battery charging.
* Toppan contract : Processing now.

## Next Meeting:

* July 20th, 2021 at 13:30-14:30 Beijing Time.

## Technical Conversations:
* There is a delay in the Tape out schedule. SMIC and manufacturers have a very tight schedule. Large volume fabrication from Quanray for the next project is expected. Quanray may execute 10K $ extra for priority run speed up. The situation will last until the middle of next year to make the delivery until the end of Feb.
