Patent DE-69419269-D1 (DE)
Inventor: ROBINSON GORDON D
IPC: G01R31/3183

Abstract: When an automatic circuit tester (10) detects that a fault has occurred in a circuit board (14), it applies to the circuit board (14) a sequence of vectors that differs from the test sequence (Tn, Tn+1) by which the fault detection occurs only in that each vector's component that corresponds to an input pin in question on the board device under test maintains a level that simulates an open circuit at that input pin. If the resultant response differs from the response to the original test sequence, the input pin can often be ruled out as one at which a fault has occurred. In this way, many open-circuit faults at input pins can be diagnosed without special probing, even when several such faults occur simultaneously. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A trench MOS Schottky barrier rectifier includes a semiconductor substrate having first and second faces, a cathode region of first conductivity type at the first face and a drift region of first conductivity type on the cathode region, extending to the second face. First and second trenches are formed in the drift region at the second face and define a mesa of first conductivity type therebetween. The mesa can be rectangular or circular in shape or of stripe geometry. Insulating regions are defined on the sidewalls of the trenches, adjacent the mesa, and an anode electrode is formed on the insulating regions, and on the top of the mesa at the second face. The anode electrode forms a Schottky rectifying contact with the mesa. The magnitude of reverse-biased leakage currents in the mesa and the susceptibility to reverse breakdown are limited not only by the potential barrier formed by the rectifying contact but also by the potential difference between the mesa and the portion of anode electrode extending along the insulating regions. Moreover, by properly choosing the width of the mesa, and by doping the mesa to a concentration greater than about 1x1016 per cubic centimeters, reverse blocking voltages greater than those of a corresponding parallel-plane P-N junction rectifier can be achieved.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for preventing damage to drapes and to heating and cooling mechanisms used in conjunction with apparatus for containing and thermally treating sterile liquid, and to preserving the sterile field when using such apparatus. A surgical drape is combined with a sensor, preferably attached to the drape, to detect whether or not liquid is present in a drape container conforming to a heating/cooling basin. An alternative embodiment employs sensors at opposite surfaces of the drape to measure conductance and, thereby, leakage through the drape. A microprocessor in each embodiment receives a signal representing, for example, an electrical conductance measurement from the sensors and determines if liquid is present, or alternatively if the conductance is sufficient to represent the presence of a leak. If liquid is not present or a leak is determined to exist, the microprocessor disables a temperature controller for the basin to prevent damage to the drape and heating and cooling mechanisms.
