Abstract: A manufacturing defect which causes a memory cell load device to be non-functional is frequently difficult to test. Such a defective memory cell can be written and subsequently read successfully even without the missing load device. But if the delay between the write and the subsequent read is long enough, the internal node of the memory cell leaks down to a degraded high level, and only then will the memory cell fail. The delay required to detect such a failure may easily reach tens of seconds, which is entirely inconsistent with the required economies of manufacturing test. A data retention circuit and method allows high speed test of a static memory cell to ensure that the load devices within the cell are actually present and functioning. An analog word line drive capability allows the active word line to be driven to a user-controllable analog level. This is accomplished by connecting the "VDD" and N-well of the final PMOS stage of the row decoder to an isolated terminal which is normally connected to VDD when assembled , but which is independently available prior to packaging. By lowering the analog word line voltage compared to the memory array power supply voltage, a written high level in a memory cell lacking a load device is not pulled high (because the load device in question is missing) and is already low enough to cause a subsequent read to immediately fail. Consequently, the memory array can be tested without requiring long delays between the write and read of each memory cell. Advantageously, the row and column support circuits and sensing circuits operate at the normal power supply levels for which they were designed and which may be independently margin tested.

Abstract: Le procédé selon l'invention vise à tester des composants de système d'un programme orienté objets. Les rapports d'interdépendance des méthodes sont abolis, en sorte qu'à chaque méthode peut être substitué un module (une fonction) de remplacement. Ce procédé permet de découvrir des méthodes 'sans implémentation', lesquelles sont mises en oeuvre à titre de modules de remplacement. En outre, la fonction de remplacement implique un automate à états, lui-même encapsulé en tant qu'objet de classification et instancié dans le module de remplacement. Si le module est appelé pendant le test, l'utilisateur peut utiliser en mode interactif des commande fixés par l'intermédiaire de l'automate à états encapsulé, ou regrouper plusieurs de ces commandes dans un fichier de commandes et les exécuter par automatisation.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating an acid or base eluent in an aqueous stream solely from an ion exchange bed for liquid chromatography of anions or cations and for simultaneously suppressing conductivity of the eluent in the ion exchange bed after chromatographic separation. For a system in which a base is generated for the analysis of anions by ion chromatography, the method uses a bed of cation exchange material with first and second bed sections arranged in series. For anion analysis, the method includes: (a) flowing an aqueous feed stream through the first bed section while applying an electrical potential to form an aqueous eluent stream comprising a cation hydroxide base, (b) flowing a liquid sample stream containing anions to be detected and the eluent through a chromatographic separator portion of said first bed section, to separate said anions to be detected, (c) flowing said aqueous separated anion stream through said second bed section substantially free of anion exchange material and including exchangeable hydronium ions, while applying an electrical potential to convert said base to weakly ionized form, and displacing some of said exchangeable hydronium ions with cations from said base, cations electromigrating from said second bed section to said first bed section in the opposite direction to said aqueous feed stream to replenish exchangeable cations displaced from said first bed in step (a), and (d) flowing said suppressor effluent stream past a detector in which the separated anions in said suppressor effluent are detected.

Abstract: A catalyst body, which contains a number of passages through which a medium can flow in a preferred direction, is to be able to operate reliably with little cleaning outlay. It is also intended for cracking during the process of manufacturing the catalyst body to be particularly rare. For this purpose, each passage, disposed at right angles to the preferred direction, is approximately rectangular in cross section, as defined by a longitudinal side and a shorter transverse side. The number of passages per unit surface area lies in the range from 0.5 to 2.5 cm-2, and the longitudinal sides of a first group of the passages are disposed approximately at right angles to the longitudinal sides of a second group of the passages. The passages are in this case combined to form subgroups, the passages of each subgroup, in terms of their cross sections, forming an approximately square configuration, and each subgroup containing in each case passages from the same group.

Abstract: A compact reversing flow catalytic converter (10) for reducing noxious substances in exhaust gases produced by internal combustion engines is described. The catalytic converter (10) includes a valve unit (14) which reversibly directs exhaust gases through a container (12) filled with catalytic material. The container (12) defines a U-shaped gas passage which communicates with two ports (64, 66) at a top of the container (12). The valve unit (14) is mounted to the top of the container (10) and includes an intake (32) and an exhaust cavity (34). The valve unit (14) includes a valve disk (42) having two openings (48) therethrough and rotates around a perpendicular central axis between a first and second position. In each position, each opening (48) communicates only with one of the cavities (32, 34) and one of the ports (64, 66). In the first position, the exhaust gases enter the exhaust cavity (34) from an exhaust pipe and pass through one of the openings (48) into the gas passage where they contact the catalytic material as they travel through the U-shaped gas passage and enter the exhaust cavity. In the second position, the two openings (48) are rotated 90 DEG  so that each opening (48) communicates with the same cavity but a different one of the ports. Therefore, the gas flow through the U-shaped gas passage is reversed. The advantage is a compact, reliable, highly-efficient catalytic converter (10) that is inexpensive to manufacture. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Solvent-free coating materials and treating agents used as water-based wood or material protective agents containing emulsifiable binding agents, quaternary ammonium compounds and optional additional active agents. The wood or material protective agents are non-flammable and enable a uniform distribution of the binding agent and the quaternary ammonium compounds in the substrates. As a result, the quaternary ammonium compounds function as a dissolving mediator for the binding agents which are dispersed in water without opacifying effects and are used as a biocide. The agents can additionally absorb water-insoluble organic biocides without impairing the homogeneity or stability of the formulation of the homogeneity of the distribution in the substrate.
