Abstract: A low power Universal Serial Bus (USB) capable device uses a weak pull-up resistance that is coupled to at least one data line of the USB for detection of when the USB capable device is connected to a USB host or hub. When the USB capable device is not connected to the USB host or hub, USB peripheral, including the USB transceiver, USB voltage regulator, serial interface and/or USB logic circuits required for USB operation may be powered down to conserve power drawn by the USB capable device. When the USB capable device is connected to the USB host or hub, a voltage from the weak pull-up will be significantly reduced, thus signaling that the USB peripheral and associated circuits should be powered up for normal USB operation.

Abstract: A diffuser (10) provides the ability to diffuse one or more infusion materials into a host material. A rotor (12) and stator (30) rotate relative to one another. The infusion materials are drawn through openings (22) in the rotor and stator. These openings (22) are also causing turbulence within the host material, which is flowing through an area between the rotor (12) and stator (30). As aligned openings (22) pass one another, succession occurs, which provides energy to diffuse the infusion materials into the host material to an extremely high degree. The opening patterns in the rotor and stator can be designed to operate at a single frequency or at multiple frequencies. The frequencies of operation may affect bonding between the infusion materials and the host material and may also be effective in break down of complex molecular structures.
