Patent CA-2755316-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SALLING JACOB
IPC: H03K3/012
Filed: 2010-03-15
Abstract: A storage cell (1) having a pulse generator (5) and a storage element (6) is proposed. The storage element input (7) is connected to receive a data input signal (DIN). The storage element output (9) is connected to provide a data output signal (DOUT). The storage element (6) is operable in one of a data retention state and a data transfer state in response to a storage con-trol signal (SC) received from the pulse generator (5). The pulse generator (5) is connected to receive a clock signal (CK) with ris-ing and falling clock signal edges (13, 14) and is adapted to provide control pulses (15, 16) in the storage control signal (SC).  Each control pulse (15, 16) has a leading edge (17) and a trailing edge (18).  The control pulses (15, 16) have a polarity suited to invoke the data transfer state on their leading edges (17). The novel feature is that the pulse generator (5) is adapted to initiate a rising-edge control pulse (15) when receiving a rising clock signal edge (13) and to initiate a falling-edge control pulse (16) when receiving a falling clock signal edge (14). In this way, a dual-edge-triggered flip-flop may be made using only combinatorial logic circuitry and one level- or single-edge-triggered storage element (6). The storage cell (1) has low power consumption, facilitates scan testing and can be used by existing design tools and test equipment.

Title: Systems and methods for determining a speed limit violation
Inventor: SCHMITT DANIEL P
IPC: G08G1/052
Filed: 2010-04-23
Abstract: Systems and methods to determine a speed limit violation by a vehicle. A  locator device coupled to the vehicle re-ceives GPS location coordinates from a satellite. The systems and methods determine the speed of the vehicle using the received coordinates or the functions of an engine control module. The speed limit of the segment of roadway on which the vehicle is trav-eling is identified based on the coordinates, and the vehicle speed is compared to the speed limit to determine whether the vehicle is violating the speed limit for the segment of roadway. The systems and methods alert any interested parties, such as the vehicle driver or a fleet manager, of the speed limit violation.

Abstract: A liquid dispensing device using a piezoelectric member in connection with an atomizing head and a passive metering method to supply liquid to the atomizing head. Preferably, the device is used to but not limited to dispensing of fragrances, insecticides or other aromatic solutions. The piezoelectric member docs not vibrate the nozzle plate through which the liquid is dispensed. The passive metering method relics only on surface tension forces within the supply passageway. The device can work with a wider range of liquid properties than existing piezoelectric devices of this type. The passive molding method is robust and consistent enabling larger and more varied liquid rcscivoirs because the reservoir height is not a factor in determining the performance of the device. The atomizing head functions with a widei range of liquids than atomizers whose nozzle plates arc directly excited.

Title: Infertility associated defb-126 deletion polymorphism
Inventor: BEVINS CHARLES L
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2010-02-26
Abstract: The present application provides diagnostic methods for determining the fertility status of a male individual by evaluating his DEFB-126 phenotypic and genotypic status. The present invention relates to a dinucleotide deletion polymorphism in the protein coding sequence of a DEFB-126 nucleic acid. The amino acid sequence of this variant has a significantly altered the carboxyl terminal, carbohydrate-containing domain of DEFB-126 in comparison to a wild-type DEFB-126 polypeptide. This variant results in aberrant protein function and structure, leading to reduced sperm function and fertility. The present invention provides methods for analyzing the genotype of individuals with respect to the gene encoding DEFB-126 in order to determine whether that individual has reduced fertility. Such determination will provide an individual knowledge of whether their genotype is associated with a risk of reduced fertility and to allow that individual to receive appropriate fertility treatment options. The present invention further provides kits that are useful for diagnosing increased risk or probability of infertility based on the presence or absence of the DEFB-126 deletion polymorphism. The application also provides therapeutic methods and compositions for restoring sperm functionality (e.g., to effect conception) in sperm from an individual who expresses insufficient levels of DEFB-126.
