Abstract: A virtual counter for dynamically calculating memory addresses at a digital switch that receives data streams of different data rates. The switch has a memory that is divisible into partitions with each partition being divisible into multiple locations. A virtual counter is implemented for each data stream in a rate conversion architecture at the switch to optimize usage of the switch memory. An input virtual counter is used to calculate a data memory address and an output virtual counter is used to calculate a connection memory address.

Abstract: In external electrodes on piezoceramic multi-layer actuators, high tensile stresses act during operation on the insulating region below the base metallic coating. Problems are caused by the linking of the electrode with a conductive connection, via which the electric voltage is to be supplied. The soldering or welding process reinforces the external electrode, which thus loses elasticity at the soldering or welding point. During operation, mechanical shear stresses then occur beneath said soldering or welding points, as the electrode region lying above no longer expands. After several million operating cycles, this causes the external electrode together with the base metallic coating to become detached, thus leading to the failure of the component. The invention is characterised in that the external electrode ( 23, 24; 26, 27 ) consists of alternating layers of conductive materials ( 19 ) and non-conductive materials ( 22, 25 ), located one on top of the other, that one of the two outer layers of conductive materials ( 19 ) is connected to the base metallic coating ( 11 ) of the actuator ( 1 ) and the other is connected to the supply conductor ( 6 ) for the voltage, and that the layers of conductive materials ( 19 ) are interconnected in a conductive manner.

The forefoot region is made of a high density material, and has a thickness, measured in a direction perpendicular to the ground-contacting surface of the sole, greater than the thickness of the heel portion, thereby defining a characteristic angle of declination from the forefoot region to the heel portion. The constraining device substantially constrains a wearer's metatarsal-phalangeal joints from movement when exercising. The forefoot region has a curved form defined so as to further minimize flexion of the metatarsal-phalangeal joint.
