Abstract: The invention relates to a spacer (1) which is arranged in between two at least partially equidistant surfaces of temporarily adjacent components, especially disk-shaped or plate-like components. The inventive device exclusively consists of an elastically deformable adhering member (3; 11; 14) and a supporting member (2) with two front faces. The supporting member (2) is made of dimensionally stable plastic and is provided with a recess (5) on one of its sides. The adhering member (3; 11; 14) is secured in the recess (5) of the supporting member. When in a released position, the adhering member (3; 11; 14) protrudes from the recess (5). When it is subjected to pressure, it can be forced back into the recess (5). The adhering member (3; 11; 14) and recess (5) are matched to each other in such a way that the adhering member (3; 11; 14) maintains its elasticity when it is fully forced back into the recess (5). The spacer (1) has a simple structure and can be re-used owing to the fact that the elastically deformable adhering member (3; 11; 14) is provided with reliable protection against the effects of excessive pressure when under strain.

Abstract: A switched capacitor circuit (60) reduces sampling noise by oversampling an input signal in space domain. The switched capacitor circuit (60) includes four sampling capacitors (72, 74, 76, 78) serially coupled together via five integrating switches (71, 73, 75, 77, 79). Each clock cycle of the oversampling process has a sampling phase and an integrating phase. In the sampling phase, the integrating switches (71, 73, 75, 77, 79) are nonconductive and the sampling capacitors (72, 74, 76, 78) sample the input signal through eight sampling switches (81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88). In the integrating phase, the charge stored in the sampling capacitors (72, 74, 76, 78) is transferred to an integrator (90).

elongated in a longitudinal direction and arched in a
transversal direction, mutually combined in a longitudinal
direction, so that each half-shell (31,32) presents an internal
surface facing the inside of the lamp structure (14) and an
external surface facing the outside; at least one of the
half-shells (31,32) is of transparent material, at least one of the
half-shells (31,32) has a convex external surface, at least one of
the half-shells (31,32) has an internal surface lined with a TIR
film (35). 
     This system does not heat the illuminated objects and
ensures perfectly uniform lighting, being also suitable for
difficult objects. Moreover, it is very economic, both in
terms of the system's cost and the operating costs.
