Title: Encapsulated electronic device and method of manufacturing the same
Inventor: BURKE RAY
IPC: H01C17/02
Filed: 2003-01-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to encapsulated or insulated devices. In certain environments and applications, it is necessary to protect devices from external agents. The present invention achieves this by providing a device comprising a segment of insulating material having an aperture defined therein. An element of active, for example positive temperature coefficient (PTC), material is received within the defined aperture. The element is substantially covered by a first metal layer on one side and a second metal layer on the opposing side. A first layer of insulating material substantially covers the first metal layer and a second layer of insulating material substantially covers the second layer of metal. A first terminal provides an external electrical connection to the first metal layer and a second terminal provides an external electrical connection to the second metal layer. The first terminal is connected to the first metal layer by a conductive interconnect which passes through the first insulating layer and the second terminal is connected to the second metal layer by a conductive interconnect passes through the second insulating layer. Moreover, the invention provides a method for manufacturing devices in a matrix form using conventional PCB techniques to facilitate the mass production of encapsulated devices. Additionally, the resulting components may be used as either leaded or SMT components in either single device or multiple device configurations in both SIP and DIP packages.

Title: Method of treating biological materials with translating electrical fields and electrode polarity reversal
Inventor: WALTERS RICHARD E
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 2003-04-11
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for treating biological cellular material with a treating agent using pulsed electrical fields provided by a waveform generator ( 12 ). The treatment method includes obtaining an electrode assembly which includes three or more parallel rows of individual electrodes ( 19 ). The electrode assembly is applied to a treatment area. Electrically conductive pathways are established between the electrodes ( 19 ) and the waveform generator ( 12 ) through an array switch ( 14 ). Successive electric fields are applied to the treatment area in the form of successive electric field waveforms from the waveform generator ( 12 ), through the array switch ( 14 ), to adjacent rows of electrodes ( 19 ), wherein each successive electric field has the same direction, and wherein polarities of rows of electrodes are reversed successively during the applying of the successive electric fields between adjacent successive rows of electrodes to the treatment area. As a result, the biological cellular material in the treatment area is treated with the treating agent unidirectionally with uniform electric fields with a minimization of the formation of deleterious electrochemistry products at the electrodes.

In further embodiments, a first mipmap value for a pixel is bilinearly interpolated from the retrieved texel values for the set of nearest neighbor texels. A second mipmap value for the pixel is generated by averaging the retrieved texel values for the set of nearest neighbor texels. A pixel value for the pixel is generated by interpolating between the first and second mipmap values. The present inventin may be embodied as methods, apparatus and computer program products.

Title: Temperature sensing in centrifugal evaporators
Inventor: GUTHRIE DUNCAN
IPC: G01J5/00
Filed: 2003-10-29
Abstract: A centrifugal evaporator includes a chamber in which sample containers are carried and rotated by a rotor and are pivotally mounted so as to swing up to a substantially horizontal orientation as the rotor rotates. The evaporator includes an infra-red source to direct infra-red radiation towards the rotor and the sample containers carried thereon, to heat at least the latter and any sample material therein.

Title: Modified spanning tree protocol for metropolitan area network
Inventor: FINN NORMAN W
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 2003-10-21
Abstract: A system and method permits the creation of very-large metropolitan area networks (MANs) using Layer 2 (L2) switching technology. Different groups of L2 switches are logically organized into Islands. Connected to each Island are a plurality of customers sites, and an interconnect fabric couples the Islands together. The Islands cooperate to provide a Virtual Ethernet Connection (VEC) to each set of customer sites being coupled together. Customers identify their traffic that corresponds to a VEC by labeling or tagging it with a Customer-Equipment VLAN Identifier (CE-VLAN ID). Within each Island, the CE-VLAN ID specified by the customer's traffic (and hence the corresponding VEC) is mapped to a unique MAN Provider-Equipment VLAN ID (PE-VLAN ID). To prevent the formation of loops, the Islands run the Inter-MAN Control Protocol (IMCP), which represents a modified version of the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP).
