Title: Verfahren und Schaltungsanordnung zur Vermeidung der Standby-Entladung einer batterieversorgten Signal-Auswerteschaltung für einen Sensor
Inventor: BERTRAM ANDRE
IPC: H01M50/574
Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Vermeidung der Standby-Entladung einer batterieversorgten Signal-Auswerteschaltung (5) für die Ladungssignale (L) eines Sensors (1), insbesondere des Staubsensors eines Staubsaugers. Ferner betrifft die Erfindung eine Schaltungsanordnung zur Durchführung des Verfahrens. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass die Ladungssignale (L), nur wenn diese auftreten, ein Anschalten der Stromversorgung der Signal-Auswerteschaltung (5) veranlassen. Das Ausbleiben der Ladungssignale (L) bewirkt ein Abschalten der Stromversorgung. Diese erfinderische "Netzschalterfunktion" für die Signal-Auswerteschaltung (5) ermöglicht eine lange Batterielebensdauer im Standby-Betrieb. Vorteilhaft kann dabei auf jegliche elektromechanische Schalter, insbesondere auf verschleißanfällige Unterdruckschalter verzichtet werden.

length (X) of not less than 20 nm and not greater than 80 nm and have oxygen
content of not less than 15 wt% and coercive force (Hc) of not less than
[0.0036 X 3 - 1.1 X 2  + 110 X - 1390 (Oe)] (where X is average major axis length

Abstract: An apparatus and method for precisely detecting very small distances
between a measurement probe (128) and a surface, and more particularly to a
proximity sensor using a constant gas flow and sensing a mass flow rate
within a pneumatic bridge to detect very small distances. Within the apparatus
the use of a flow restrictor (120,122) and/or snubber (110) made of porous material and/or a
mass flow rate controller (106) reduces turbulence and acoustic noise
and thus enables detection of very small distances in the nanometer to sub-nanometer
range. An application in lithography is thus foreseen. In a further embodiment a
measurement channel of a proximity sensor is connected to multiple
measurement branches, thereby providing multiplexing of probes, used eg. for topography mapping.

Abstract: A portable multi-functional electrochemical biosensor system comprises a plurality of sample cells, pluggable information memories and a multi-functional signal analysis processor. The biosensor system uses a set of sample cell and pluggable information memory to detect the concentration of a corresponding selected analyte. Each sample cell has a reaction zone on which a chemical substance is placed to react with the corresponding analyte and has at least two independent electrodes. During detection, each corresponding pluggable information memory can provide parameters used for analysis. The multi-functional signal analysis processor has a microprocessor, an electrically erasable programmable read/write memory and an environmental temperature sensor. The concentration of the selected analyte is calculated by using the electrochemical reaction signal output from the sample cell and the parameters with cooperation of the environmental temperature sensor, and then an analysis result is output.

Abstract: A positional information determining apparatus capable of
reducing power consumption markedly in simple structure in radio
transmission of positioning results to a navigation device.
Satellite waves S1 to S4 are received from a plurality of GPS
satellites 2 to 5 and analyzed at prescribed time intervals, thus
obtaining positional data D5 denoting own current position. Only
when positional data D5 can be determined, the positional data D5
is transmitted by radio to the navigation device that uses the
positional data D5. Thus it is made possible to reduce power
consumption with certainty because radio transmission is made
only when positional data D5 can be obtained.
