Abstract: The invention features methods for separating cells from a sample (e.g., separating fetal red blood cells from maternal blood). The method begins with the introduction of a sample including cells into one or more microfluidic channels. In one embodiment, the device includes at least two processing steps. For example, a mixture of cells is introduced into a microfluidic channel that selectively allows the passage of a desired type of cell, and the population of cells enriched in the desired type is then introduced into a second microfluidic channel that allows the passage of the desired cell to produce a population of cells further enriched in the desired type. The selection of cells is based on a property of the cells in the mixture, for example, size, shape, deformability, surface characteristics (e.g., cell surface receptors or antigens and membrane permeability), or intracellular properties (e.g., expression of a particular enzyme).

Abstract: A ramp circuit (32) for controlling power supplied by a transmitter in a digitial receiver comprises a memory facility (35) for storing ramp data (36) and a digital-to-analogue converter (DAC) (40) for generating an output signal based on said ramp data (36). The ramp data (36) comprises a control word (U(16)) which defines a predetermined power level, and a set of scaling factors (U(1)-U(15)). The DAC (40) receives signals based on the power level multiplied by the scaling factors. Each scaling factor (U(1)-(U(15)) may consist of a small number of bits when compared with the control word (U(16)), so that the amount of ramp data (36) and the time required to upload the ramp data (36) at the start of a time slot are minimised. The ramp circuit (32) may be latched to produce a static output based on the control word (U(16)) during a portion of a time slot used for data transmission, to avoid interference from clocking of the ramp circuit components.
