Abstract: L'invention concerne un élément chauffant à pointe céramique comprenant des conducteurs de chauffage externes et des surfaces de connexion électrique intégrées, ainsi qu'un procédé permettant de fabriquer un tel élément. Ce procédé consiste à mouler par injection un premier corps composé d'un premier composite céramique moulable par injection comprenant une première résistance électrique puis à mouler par injection autour de ce premier corps un second corps composé d'un second composite céramique moulable par injection comprenant une seconde résistance électrique afin de former un corps combiné. Ce corps combiné est ensuite fritté. L'élément chauffant à pointe céramique résultant est formé directement sans opérations complémentaires de protection (isolation) de l'élément destinées à empêcher les conducteurs chauffants complémentaires externes d'entrer en contact avec l'enveloppe et/ou les boulons terminaux. Ce procédé permet de réduire le risque de rupture des pointes au niveau du point de montage et /ou de l'appui du joint, associé aux variations de l'épaisseur des revêtements contact et/ou des revêtements isolants.

Abstract: A magnetic tape cassette has a pair of take-up hubs
wound with a magnetic tape and a cassette case containing
the hubs and made up of upper and lower halves with sheets
between the hubs and the halves. At least one side of each
of the sheets is impregnated with an antistatic agent by
the amount of 2.0 x 10 -5  mg/mm 2  to 1.5 x 10 -4  mg/mm 2 . A
buffering member for holding or imparting a shape-imparting
effect is attached by means of adhesive to a portion of
each sheet where a shape-imparting part for defining the
position in the direction of height of the take-up hubs is
provided or to be provided. Thus, the surface electric
resistance of the sheet is small. The antistatic agent is
not transferred to the magnetic tape in a harsh environment
of high temperature and high humidity. The tape can run
stably even after transportation and storage in such a
harsh environment. The position of the magnetic tape in
the direction of the height of the take-up hubs is
controlled, and the position where the magnetic tape runs
is reliably and precisely retained.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif micro-électronique à effet de champ à canal de vide à fréquence ultra-haute (VFED ou IGVFED) comportant une source d'émission de champ latéral (60), un collecteur (150) et au moins une grille isolée (40, 160). Ces grilles isolées sont disposées de préférence de façon à se déployer en alignement de chevauchement avec le bord émetteur (85) de la source d'émission de champ latérale et avec une partie de la région du canal à vide (120). Si les grilles n'existent pas, le dispositif fonctionne comme une diode à très grande vitesse. Pour l'un des procédés de fabrication préférés du dispositif, on utilise un matériau sacrificiel déposé temporairement dans une tranchée pour la région du canal à vide qui est couverte d'une couverture isolante. Un trou d'accès dans la couverture permet l'élimination du matériau sacrificiel. Un aspect d'un procédé de fabrication préféré est de voir le drain agir de préférence également comme obturateur étanche, fermant le trou d'accès et obstruant de façon étanche la région du canal à vide une fois que la région du canal à vide a été évacuée.

Abstract: A electron emission cathode includes an emitter (102) having an apex (118) from which electrons are emitted. The emitter is attached to a heating filament (114) at a junction (116) and extends from the junction both forward toward the apex and rearward. A reservoir (130) of material that lowers the work function of the emitter is positioned on the rearward extending portion (128) of the emitter. By positioning the reservoir on the rearward extending portion, the reservoir can be positioned sufficiently far from the junction to reduce its temperature and thereby greatly increase the useful life of the emitter without adversely affecting the emission characteristics of the source.

Abstract: A multi-band transceiver for receiving and transmitting signals within selected GSM frequency bands. Transmission and reception occurs simultaneously and within the same time slot of a TDMA frame. The transceiver includes a first local oscillator LO1 that selectively oscillates within a bandwidth corresponding to the selected GSM band and outputs a signal having a frequency fLO1. A second local oscillator LO2 selectively oscillates at a frequency corresponding to the selected GSM band and outputs a signal having a frequency fLO2. A receiver receives a signal having a frequency fRx and mixes the signals from the first and second local oscillators to generate a demodulating signal having a frequency fRx, wherein fRx=fLO1±fLO2. A transmitter having a loop architecture includes a VCO that generates a signal having a transmit frequency fTx equal to fRx minus a comparison frequency fCF, and a mixer that mixes the signal from the first local oscillator with the transmit signal to generate an IF signal having a frequency fIF=fLO2±fCF. A quadrature mixer that modulates the IF signal with baseband "I" and "Q" signals, and a phase detector that compares the phases of the IF signal and the signal from the second local oscillator and outputs a control voltage to the VCO.

Abstract: A charge-based frequency measurement BIST (CF-BIST) for clock circuits and oscillator circuits is described that requires no outside test stimulus and produces a digital test output. The CF-BIST technique performs structural and defect-oriented testing and uses existing blocks to save die area. The technique adds a multiplexer to the non-sensitive digital path. The system uses the existing VCO as the measuring device and divide-by-N as a frequency counter to reduce the area overhead. The described technique produces an efficient pass/fail evaluation, low-cost and practical implementation of on-chip BIST structure.

Abstract: A mask (10) for supplying gas under pressure to the nasal airway of an infant human includes a manifold (16) for supplying air to an aperture (56) in the mask (10) and a support structure or plate (14) for supporting the manifold (16). A shaped membrane structure (12) formed from a thin walled membrane extends generally away from the support structure (14) and defines an enclosure for receiving at least the nares of an infant human nose and a generally trapezoidal aperture (56) adapted to fit around the nasal area of the infant human. Part of the membrane (12) around the aperture (56) is sufficiently flexible to mould to the shape of the infant human's nasal area or is countoured to generally match the contours around that nasal area whilst the membrane structure (12) itself has sufficient rigidity to support the weight of the backing plate (14) without collapsing. The provision of a generally trapezoidal rather than the generally triangular apertures (56) for fitting around the nares provides a substantially improved fit when the mask (10) is used with infants. The moulding or contouring of the membrane structure (12) around the aperture (56) to match the shape of the infant's facial contours around the nasal area is also important in ensuring a comfortable fit and an effective seal.
