Abstract: The invention deals with a wireless extension of the IEEE 1394 bus. Considered is a scenario where two clusters of 1394 devices are linked to each other by means of a wireless bridge (9). The devices of one cluster shall communicate with devices of the other cluster without being bridge-aware. The wireless bridge, however, provides for a bus reset isolation. This causes a problem each time a bus reset occurs in one of the clusters. To solve this problem it is proposed to implement a buffer memory (22) for self-identification packets in the 1394 interfaces (11) of both boxes of said wireless bridge (9). In particular these buffer memories (22) shall be implemented in the physical layer section (21) of the 1394 interfaces (11). With these buffer memories the self-identification packets of the bus stations in the other cluster can be collected and they can easily be read out during the self-configuration phase of the network after a bus reset when the bus grant is assigned to the box of the wireless bridge that is also connected to the bus where the bus reset has occurred. The physical layer section of the 1394 interface transmits artificial self-identification packets for all bus stations of the other cluster so that data communication can continue without long delays. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A circuit generates a test signal useful in verifying the actual delay values of individual delay stages in a digital delay line. In general, the cumulative delay of the delay line defines a window in time having its zero point anchored to the beginning of the delay line. Successive delay stages correspond to successive time bins within the overall time window. The test signal shifts at a known, linear rate in time with respect to a reference signal, which is used to initiate a test cycle. The reference signal synchronizes sampling of the test signal to the beginning of the time window. Samples of the test signal are taken at sample points determined by the actual time delays in the successive delay stages. The observed distribution of test signal edges across the time window may be used to determine the actual delay intervals of the delay line.

Abstract: When transmitting stream data by a network such as the IEEE1394 method, even if the data format is changed in the middle, the processing before and after the change point is not interrupted. When stream data output from a first device is received by a second device via a predetermined network and the stream data output from the first device is changed from a first format content A to a second format content B, after output of the content A is complete, invalid data of format identical as the content B is output. During this invalid data output, the first device checks the state of the second device (steps S11 to S14) and upon detection of that the second device is ready for inputting the second format stream data, output of the second format content B is started.

Abstract: The invention relates to devices produced by injection molding for storing and/or handling liquids, which can be emptied without residues, and also to a simple process for producing such devices. Liquids are frequently taken up and distributed in a defined manner using pipette tips, syringes, ampoules or similar devices. However, for technical reasons, the pipette tips available on the market today cannot pipette the smallest volumes desired without contact, i.e. provide unaided and complete release of the liquid to be pipetted from the pipette tip. Equally, it is currently impossible to completely empty storage vessels. The devices according to the invention overcome this problem by the surfaces which come into contact with the liquid being provided with self-cleaning properties. This makes it possible to take up and distribute liquids without residue in a simple manner and to completely empty storage vessels. The process according to the invention is very simple since it can use existing equipment. Customarily, injection-molded parts are produced by means of injection molds into which the material is injected. The process according to the invention uses this process by applying microparticles to the injection mold before the actual injection molding, these being transferred to the injection-molded part on injection molding by being impressed into the surface of the injection-molded part.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for accessing body lumens and/or for delivering instruments into body lumens, e.g., vessels within a patient's vasculature. A flexible sheath (20) is provided that is expandable from a contracted condition to an enlarged condition wherein the sheath at least partially defines a lumen therein. The sheath is lubricious and has a relatively thin wall, thereby providing a collapsible/expandable guide for delivering fluids and/or instruments through tortuous anatomy and/or into relatively narrow passages. The sheath is advanced from an entry site to a body lumen in the contracted condition. Once the sheath reaches a target body lumen, the sheath is expanded to the enlarged condition, thereby defining a lumen within the sheath, and fluids and/or instruments are introduced into the body lumen via the sheath lumen. Upon completing the procedure, the sheath is removed from the body lumen.
