Abstract: A split phase fuel conditioner 10 includes a main body 20 defining an ignition chamber 22 . A transfer passage 24 is in fluid communication between the ignition chamber 22 and chamber 14 . A valve 28 selectively opens and closes a throat 26 of the transfer passage 24 to control fluid communication between chamber 22 and chamber 14 . A first injector 30 injects a first fuel volume into ignition chamber 22 . A second fuel injector 32 injects a second volume of fuel directly into transfer passage 24 through the first valve 28 . The first fuel volume is ignited in the chamber 22 to form an ignition plasma. Valve 28 is opened allowing the ignition plasma to condition the second fuel volume by vaporising the second fuel volume. The ignition plasma then sweeps the conditioned second fuel volume into the combustion chamber where it combusts in a controlled manner.

IPC: G01R1/04

Abstract: A test probe consists of an elongated screw machine contact biased by a
helical spring and mounted in a through hole of a non-conductive substrate. One end of
the contact includes a crown for engaging a solder ball lead of an IC package, and the
contact includes an intermediate collar which maintains the contact within the through
hole. The helical spring is disposed about the contact, with one end thereof engaging
the lower end of the collar. The other end of the helical spring has contiguous coils and
is of a reduced diameter so as to extend beyond the lower end of the non-conductive
substrate to make electrical contact with a printed circuit board. When the test probe is
compressed between the IC package and the printed circuit board, the inherent twisting
of the helical spring causes the contact to tilt and make electrical contact with the
contiguous coils, thereby establishing a direct electrical path between the IC package
and the printed circuit board, with minimum resistance and minimum inductance.

Abstract: A method of generating digital test sets for testing a number of wiring
interconnects is described. Each test set defines a number of test patterns for application to
the wiring interconnects in parallel and a number of code words for application to respective
wiring interconnects. Each pair of consecutive test patterns defines a transition distance
which is related to a total number of bit value transitions of consecutive bits in the code
words forming the pair of test patterns, and each test set has a total transition distance equal

first test set, the number of test patterns in the second test set being equal to the number of
test patterns in the first test set, and the total transition distance of the second test set being

directed along the path(s) in response to its attenuation characteristics,
