Abstract: A coupling piece for carrying out digital transmissions between an electrical interface of a first device and an electrical interface of a second device. The devices each use different voltage levels for distinguishing between the two logical states "high" and "low". An internal circuit is provided for converting the voltage levels of the first device to the voltage levels of the second device, which correspond to the state. The higher voltage level is conveyed to this internal circuit by one of the two devices so that the low level can be converted to the higher level. The internal circuit carries out the conversions using a switching process.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and kits for subcutaneously implanting articles, such as drug inserts and reservoirs. The methods rely on percutaneously forming a tissue tract and radially dilating the tract to a diameter which permits introduction of the article. By fully expanding the lumenal diameter of the tissue tract prior to introduction of the article, damage to the article resulting from passage through a partially expanded tissue tract can be avoided. In the exemplary embodiment, a radially expandable sleeve is first percutaneously introduced to the subcutaneous target site. An assembly of a cannula and dilator is then passed through the sleeve, effecting radial expansion. The dilator is removed and the article is then introduced through a lumen of the cannula.

Abstract: A high resolution patterning method of a resist layer is disclosed by patternwise irradiation of a resist layer with electron beam utilizing a polysubstituted triphenylene compound as the electron beam resist material, which is graphitized and made insoluble in both polar and non-polar organic solvents for electron doses greater than 2x10-3 C/cm2, and which undergoes cleavage of the adduct chains and extensive de-aromatization of the triphenylene core therefore enhancing the solubility in polar solvents only for electron doses between 3x10-4 and 2x10-3 C/cm2. The thus formed positive or negative tone resist layer is highly resistant against dry etching to ensure the utility of the method in fine patterning work for the manufacture of semiconductor devices.

The discharge opening (15) is provided within the same receptacle (1) and is situated below the path of rotation of the tools (21) and below the support disc (9). Additional moving tools (12) are provided within the same receptacle (1) below the support disc (9) which convey the material into the discharge opening (15). In this way a long dwelling time of the treated plastic material within the receptacle (1) is achieved so that constructive length and driving energy for the screw (17) are economized.A method for preparing such plastic material provides that the material is continuously treated within the same receptacle in two successive steps by meows of two sets of tools arranged one above the other. In the first step carried out by the upper set of tools, the material is pre-comminuted and/or pre-heated and/or pre-dried and/or pre-mixed. In the second step carried out by the lower set of tools, the same treatment is effected, but less intensively as compared with the first step. The material thus treated is supplied by the tools of the second step to a screw which discharges the material from the receptacle.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for computing soft decision input metrics to a turbo decoder includes circuits associated with eight-ary phase shift keyed (8PSK) modulation and sixteen-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM). In both implementations log-likelihood ratio (LLR) metrics on code symbols are estimated as products of various constant values and various combinations of the in-phase and quadrature components of a demodulated soft decision. In the implementation associated with the 16QAM modulation scheme, an estimate of the carrier-signal-to-interference (C/I) ratio is also used to estimate some of the LLR metrics. Estimates of the LLR metrics may also be obtained in association with generalized square QAM and M-ary PSK modulation schemes including, e.g., 64QAM, 256QAM, and 16PSK.

Abstract: An electrosurgical system has an electrosurgical generator and a bipolar electrosurgical instrument, the generator being arranged to perform a treatment cycle in which radio frequency energy is delivered to the instrument as an amplitude-modulated radio frequency power signal in the form of a succession of pulses characterised by periods of at least 100 milliseconds between successive pulses and by a predetermined pulse mark-to-space ratio. Energy delivery between pulses is substantially zero and the mark-to-space ratio is typically 1:4 or less. Each burst is of sufficiently high power to form vapour bubbles within tissue being treated and the time between successive pulses is sufficiently long to permit condensation of the vapour. The treatment cycles may each include an initial period and a subsequent period, the pulse duty cycle being increased or energy delivered continuously in the subsequent period in order that tissue coagulation can be achieved quickly despite increasing tissue impedance.
