Abstract: Specially modified JTAG test circuitry is used to provide test inputs and outputs for vendor supplied megacells with buried I/Os within an integrated circuit chip. A multiplexer or similar circuit is used to alternatively select between a JTAG boundary scan output or a megacell circuit test output in response to JTAG instructions within an instruction register. Additionally, a multiplexer or similar circuit is used to alternatively select between an input pin or normal circuitry for input to a megacell's buried input. Furthermore, an AND or OR gate is used to allow test inputs to a megacell, which are normally tied either high or low, to be controlled by an input pin when in the special JTAG test mode. In this manner, test vectors applied at test inputs to the megacell circuitry result in test outputs to the megacell circuitry being provided on output pins of the integrated circuit without requiring additional input and/or output pins that are solely operational as test inputs or outputs to the megacell circuitry.

Abstract: A power control apparatus, particularly for lighting systems such as fluorescent lights. A power variation circuit (16) is provided coup led between a mains electrical input power source and at least one power output to a load (6) such as a lighting system. The power variation device is controllable to vary the power level supplied to the load according to control signals from a digital processing circuit(10). Monitoring circuitry (12, 14) is coupled to the digital processing circuit (10) to provide monitoring signals relating to electrical parameters of the input power source (4) and/or the at least one power output (9). The digital processing circuit (10) is responsive to a condition of the monitoring signals to control the power variation circuit (16) to supply the power output (9) at a first predetermined level for a predetermined time period and thereafter to reduce power output to a second predetermined level. The second predetermined level and the predetermined time period are set by the digital processing means according to control parameters stored in a first memory. The stored control parameters may include indications of predetermined times of day and/or days of week and corresponding values for the second predetermined level, wherein the digital processing circuit (10) is responsive to a timer at the predetermined times of day and/or days of week to change the second predetermined level to the corresponding value stored in the memory.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for detecting a hormone or antihormone resistance in cancers. The invention is intended for use in medicine, biology and the pharmaceutical industry. The aim of the invention is to consistently improve the use of antihormones in the treatment of cancer so that unnecessary treatment can be avoided as much as possible. The aim is to develop a method which can be used to identify the type of cancer before corresponding antihormone treatment is given. This aim is achieved by measuring the immune reactivity of the hormone receptors of cancers. The method as per the invention is characterized in that an antihormone receptor antibody, which is attached to a solid, is incubated with a prepared cytosol from the cancer tissue being investigated and, following removal of the liquid, is once again incubated with the addition of the respective hormone or antihormone, then a second enzyme-labelled antibody is added, the color reaction measured and the determined value for the immune reaction is compared with the control value which is obtained in the same way but without the respective hormone or antihormone being incubated.

Abstract: Dans des modes de réalisation particuliers décrits dans le descriptif, une imprimante à jet d'encre à passe simple comprend plusieurs modules (54) de jet d'encre disposés en rangées adjacentes s'étendant sur la largeur de la surface d'un objet qu'on déplace par rapport à l'imprimante. Les modules (54) sont montés et fixés sur un collecteur (84), lui-même monté sur un cadre porteur (82). L'encre passe dans le collecteur par une ouverture (98) du cadre, et le collecteur distribue l'encre dans des ouvertures (66) correspondantes situées dans les modules de jet d'encre, d'où l'encre est dirigée vers des rangées de chambres de pression à encre, ainsi que vers une sortie communiquant avec un canal de retour (102) correspondant, situé dans le collecteur et retournant à la réserve d'encre. Dès lors, on peut faire circuler l'encre en continu à travers tous les modules de jet d'encre, de manière à maintenir le pigment en suspension dans une encre pigmentée. On raccorde une réserve d'encre, de façon amovible, à la tête d'impression à l'aide d'attaches à démontage rapide et pour éviter la contamination de l'encre dans la tête d'impression, on place des filtres dans la réserve d'encre, ainsi qu'à l'entrée de la tête d'impression. On place un autre filtre (86), conçu pour piéger uniquement les particules susceptible de boucher les orifices de la plaque à orifices, entre les modules (54) de jet d'encre et la plaque (90) à orifices. Dans un certain mode de réalisation, on dispose douze modules (54) de jet d'encre de façon à obtenir une résolution d'environ 275 points par pouce (108 points par cm) sur une largeur d'image de 5,6 pouces (14,2 cm).

Abstract: The method of election of the active station from among two stations makes use of an identifier or token held in permanent memory in each station. The token can take two states: present or absent. The token passes from the present state to the absent state when the other station becomes operational, and from the absent to the present state when the other station becomes non-operational. The station becoming operational is elected immediately as the active station if the token is in the present state in its permanent memory, and after is elected after a delay if its token is in the absent state.
