Patent CA-2473956-A1 (CA)
Inventor: RICCHETTI MICHAEL
IPC: G06Q30/00
Filed: 2003-01-21
Abstract: A system and method (Fig. 3) of licensing electronic circuit designs within target electronic circuits (326) or devices that allows secure delivery and reliable accounting of the licensed circuit designs on a per-usage basis. The method includes determining whether an electronic circuit design is licensable for use within a target electronic circuit (326) by verifying licensing information included in a set of predetermined vectors associated with the electronic circuit design (Fig. 3). The licensing system (321) allows IP core providers and IP core users to account for the use of licensed electronic circuit designs on a per-usage basis with higher accuracy, thereby providing increased assurance that the electronic circuit designs are being licensed in a manner that is fair to all parties.

Abstract: An apparatus for isolated transformation of a first voltage into a second voltage includes a motor (15), which is powered by the first voltage and whereof the motor drives a generator (16) utilizing a coupling means, for example, a shaft (17 ) or a belt drive, whereof the rotation of the shaft generates the second voltage off th e generator (16). At least a portion (18) of the coupling means, for example, the shaft (17), is made of an electrically isolating material featuring a dielectric constant of approximately 1 and is of such a dimension that the capacitance of the generator related to Grou nd is at maximum 10 pF, preferably 5 pF. The apparatus is in particular suited to provide a voltage for supply of electronic measurement devices, which are used for impedance measurements at the human body because the apparatus meets requirements for medical safety, keeps the electrical capacitance of the measurement circuit powered by the generator at a minimum, does not transform disturbances present at the first voltage to the measurement circuitry, and doesn't generate disturbances by itself.</ SDOAB>

Inventor: BLIVEN BRIAN
IPC: B23K26/42
Filed: 2004-03-12
Abstract: A wavefront sensor enhances calibration of a laser ablation system, such as a laser eye surgery system, by measuring one or more characteristics of an ablated test surface. Typically, light is passed through the ablated test surface, and the light is analyzed to determine the test surface characteristics. In some embodiments, the ablated test surface is positioned along a treatment plane. In some embodiments, light is passed through a wavefront sensor, such as a Hartmann-Shack sensor, to convert the light into electrical signals. A processor then converts the electrical signals into data, such as surface maps showing high-order aberrations and/or artifacts on the test surface, refractive power measurements, shape measurements, and the like. Generated data may then be used to calibrate a laser surgery system.
