Abstract: In an electronic circuit for forming an antenna pattern, the antenna signals having the required phase shift are generated by means of two phase-locked loops which have a common reference signal. A control current, which is added at the output node of the charge pump 26 and/or 27, is used to control the phase shift of the antenna signals. This allows the implementation of the phase shift operation in the analog domain, which decreases the cost of a corresponding consumer device, such as a car-radio or a mobile communication system.

Abstract: A biosensor device for detecting small molecules analytes is provided. The device employs a first class of molecules, e.g., protein that binds to both the analyte and a second class of molecules, e.g., nucleic acid. The binding of the protein to the analyte and nucleic acid can be mutually exclusive, and the presence of analyte in a sample results in a detectable displacement of protein from nucleic acid. Alternatively, binding of the protein to the nucleic acid can depend on the presence of analyte in the sample. In a specific embodiment, either the protein or nucleic acid is immobilized on a solid phase support. An arsenic detection system is exemplified. An ArsR binding sequence from the E. coli ars operon is immobilized on a gold-plated surface. ArsR protein binds to the DNA in the absence of arsenic, and is released in the presence of sodium arsenate or phenylarsine oxide. Protein release results in a change in surface plasmon resonance, and the magnitude or kinetics of the change indicate the concentration of arsenic.

Abstract: A method for reversing the direction of rotation of a two-stroke engine whose rotational speed and crank mechanism position are sensed by a sensor system. To reverse the direction of rotation of the engine, the ignition and/or the fuel supply is first switched off, and upon a subsequent coasting of the engine, a targeted early ignition is set when a specific limiting rotational speed is undershot and after, if appropriate, the fuel supply has been resumed. Early ignition reverses the direction of rotation of the engine, and the fuel supply and ignition are subsequently controlled in accordance with the reversed direction of rotation. A single sensor interacts with an incremental transducer having a specific number of transducer segments distributed uniformly over a circumference to determine the instantaneous angular speed of the crank mechanism and the crank mechanism position.
