Inventor: RAYSSAC OLIVIER
IPC: H01L21/20
Filed: 2002-12-31
Abstract: A method is presented for cutting an assembly that includes two layers of material having a first surface and a second surface. The method includes providing a weakened interface between the two layers that defines an interface ring about the periphery of the assembly, providing a high-pressure zone at the interface ring, and providing at least one controllable low-pressure zone in the vicinity of at least one of the first surface and the second surface. The technique also includes supplying the high-pressure zone with a controllable high-pressure force, and attacking the interface ring with at least one mechanical force in combination with the high-pressure force to cut the assembly.

Abstract: Stacks of sheets (50) to make up a book or folder are presented with their edges in alignment and their perforations (52) form straight bores through the stack near one edge. The alignment system changes the straight bores into curved bores ready for insertion of a ring binder. The pins (16a,b) are pushed toward each other in the bores in a straight line until their tips overlap.  The pins are mounted on support blocks (56a,b) on lever arms (14a,b) which are pivoted together on hinges (12a,b). As the pins are withdrawn by pivoting the arms about their hinges, they realign the stack so that the perforations form curved bores which fit the ring binder.

Abstract: The present invention provides an n-phase integrated buck converter (10) . The converter (10) comprises a controller (20) and a plurality of circuits (12) each operably connected to the controller (20) .The controller controls the plurality of circuits (12) to respectively output a plurality of current signals each having an associated phase and generate an output voltage signal. By applying the n phase concept of the invention, the amount of current each phase (i.e., each of the plurality of circuits) has to deliver is reduced. This directly reduces the conduction losses in each phase. Because the current in each phase is lower, a smaller MOSFET in each of the plurality of circuits may be used. The smaller MOSFET is easier to switch. Therefore, the switching losses per phase are also reduced. Reducing these losses will enable the invention to achieve high efficiencies. Integration allows all of the components to become physically closer and capable of being switched faster. Faster switching frequencies allow for smaller and less passive components. Integration also minimizes the total cost of the converter (10) .
