Abstract: A method and apparatus for converting a DC voltage to a lower DC voltage, provides for conducting current from an input terminal, through an inductor to charge a capacitor connected to the inductor at an output terminal and to provide a varying range of load current from the output terminal, alternately switching the input terminal between a supply voltage and a ground potential to produce a desired voltage at the output terminal that is lower than the supply voltage, while providing the varying range of load current, and disconnecting the input terminal from both the supply voltage and the ground potential to reduce an increase in voltage at the output terminal caused by a substantial reduction in the load current, while current through the inductor adjusts in response to the reduced load current.

The perpendiculars (r-1 to r-6, r-1' to r-6') from the centre to the tangents (T-1 to T-6, T-1' to T-6') and the distance from the centre to the tangents are calculated. The corner points of the polygon surrounding the spherical profile are calculated, and a contour is determined. A reference circuit is determined in relation to the contour such that the quadratic shape deviation of the contour reaches a minimum in relation to reference circuit. The reference circuit represents the smallest possible circuit that adapts to the contour, and represents the largest possible circuit that adapts to the contour. The reference circuit together with an additional circuit that is concentric to the reference circuit surrounds the contour at a minimal radial distance.

Abstract: Embodiments of a system that communicates bidirectional data between two devices via shared links is described. In this system, data is transmitted on the shared links by one of the devices using single-ended drivers, and corresponding symbols are received on the shared links by the other device using differential comparison circuits. The data may be encoded as a series of parallel codewords prior to transmission. Each shared link may communicate a respective symbol in each codeword, which can have one of two possible logical values (e.g., a logic 0 or a logic 1). The corresponding symbols received by the other device may comprise a parallel symbol set, and each of the differential comparison circuits may compare symbols received on pairs of the shared links. A decoder in the other device may decode a respective parallel symbol set from the outputs of the differential comparison circuits to recover the encoded data.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a half-bridge LLC resonant converter with self-driven synchronous rectifiers, which utilizes a primary IC controller and a gate driver to drive the secondary synchronous rectifiers. In correspondence with the gate drive output voltages of the primary IC controller to the primary switch transistors, the gate driver for the secondary synchronous rectifiers comprises a differential transformer if the primary IC controller outputs two ground-referenced gate drive voltages, which cannot directly drive the primary switch transistors but can be imposed on the differential transformer; or comprises a DC shifter, a DC restorer and a differential transformer if the primary IC controller outputs two gate-source voltages, which can directly drive the primary switch transistors but cannot be imposed on the differential transformer. The drive voltages of the primary switch transistors are unipolar; however the drive voltage of the secondary synchronous rectifiers can be bipolar or unipolar. Under the valid operation mode, this converter can decrease the rectifier conduction losses to increase the power converter efficiency.

Abstract: An ultrasonic imaging apparatus and method are described for monitoring the progress of therapy for pathology such as lesions, tumors, and metastases by means of contrast agent imaging. A sequence of images are acquired as a bolus of contrast agent infuses the tissue containing the pathology. Time-intensity curves of pathology and normal tissue are produced and used to measure perfusion in the pathology as affected by therapy. The motional effects of respiration can be taken into account during image acquisition by detecting the position of a landmark such as the diaphragm in each of the images of the sequence and discarding from processing those images which exhibit a change in the position of the landmark relative to the probe.
