Abstract:
1. A system, comprising a processor for executing code and a memory in communication with the processor, the system comprising code stored in the memory that causes the processor to: (a) determine a state of electrodes in a droplet actuator with each electrode having an applied voltage or a reference voltage; (b) determine multiple vectors having terms corresponding to a voltage of each electrode, the determining comprising defining a term of a first one of the vectors having a value representing a don't care condition, and defining a second one of the vectors based on the term of the first one of the vectors having a value representing a don't care condition, such that the first one of the vectors and the second one of the vectors can be executed in parallel; and (c) transform the vectors into physical pin assignments for the droplet actuator to execute multiple vectors in parallel.
