Abstract: A planar electrical interconnection system suitable for an integrated circuit is created by a process in which an insulating layer (31) having a planar upper surface is formed on a substructure after which openings (32) are etched through the insulating layer. A conductive planarizing layer (33) having a planar upper surface is formed on the insulating layer and in the openings by an operation involving isotropic deposition of a material, preferably tungsten, to create at least a portion of the planarizing layer extending from its upper surface partway into the openings. The planarizing layer is then etched down to the insulating layer. Consequently, its upper surface is coplanar with that of the material (33ʹ) in the openings. The foregoing steps are repeated to create another coplanar conductive/­insulating layer (34 and 36ʹ). If the lower openings are vias while the upper openings are grooves, the result is a planar interconnect level. Further planar interconnect levels can be formed in the same way.

Abstract: A hydraulic clutch for transmitting torque from an input rotating member (6) to an output rotating member (7) when friction plates (27, 47) are brought into engagement with each other. Hydraulic fluid having pressure depending upon rotational speed of an input shaft (5) is supplied from a hydraulic fluid source (P) into a hydraulic pressure chamber (28), to cause an urging member (26) to bring the friction plates (27, 47) into engagement with each other when the rotational speed of the input shaft (5) reaches a predetermined value. A control mechanism (15) controls opening and closing of a pressure regulating valve (32) in response to the rotational speed of the input shaft (5). When the pressure regulating valve (32) is opened, the hydraulic fluid is caused to flow from the hydraulic pressure chamber (28) to a low pressure side (80), and when the pressure regulating valve (32) is closed, the hydraulic fluid is prevented from flowing to the low pressure side (80). A pilot valve (31) is operable to prevent the hydraulic fluid from flowing into the hydraulic pressure chamber (28) when the pressure regulating valve (32) is opened. The pilot valve (31) regulates the hydraulic fluid to a predetermined value to permit the regulated hydraulic fluid to be supplied to the hydraulic pressure chamber (28) when the pressure regulating valve (32) is closed, t                               hereby bringing the friction plates (27, 47) into smooth engagement with each other.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a high-speed high-capacity Local Area Network (LAN) wherein each user, of a separate group of one or more of the network users, communicates cordlessly, using radio frequencies or infrared, with an assigned Regional Bus Interface Unit (RBIU) (11) located in the proximity of the group. Each RBIU of the network interfaces with a high-speed serial or lower speed parallel bus (14) of an open-ring network for purposes of transmitting information signals while receiving information signals via the high-speed serial network bus(es). Various communications protocols such as, for example, CSMA/CD, slotted ALOHA, etc. can be employed by the users in communicating with the associated RBIUs with high efficiency due to the short paths involved relative to the transmission frame durations used on the bus.

Abstract: The present invention includes a device for providing connections to a plurality of inputs of a circuit to be tested. A computer stores test vectors comprising data representing stimulus signals to be applied to the circuit and data representing response signals to be sensed from the circuit. The stored test vectors are applied through a driver associated with each input of the circuit to be tested. The driver has an output capable of assuming a high state, a low state or a floating state. A driver control causes the driver to assume a high or low output state in response to data representing stimulus signals and causes the driver output to assume a floating state in response to data representing response signals. Response signals from the device to be tested are compared to the data representing response signals to determine the occurrence of a fault.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods and intermediates which cause the release of periplasmic proteins of gram-negative bacteria into the growth medium. This invention relates more particularly to novel DNA transfer vectors and gram-negative hosts transformed with them. These vectors are character­ized in that they include a DNA sequence encoding a protein, such as kil, which when expressed causes proteins located in the periplasmic space of gram-­negative bacteria to be released into the culture medium. It also relates to vectors, transformed hosts and methods for the controlled expression of the kil gene product.
