Abstract: A monolithic RF amplifier circuit (10) suitable for use in the 0.8-2 GHz frequency range comprises, on-chip (12'), a gateable oscillator (24) running at about 2-5 times the amplifier input frequency or higher, coupled to a rectifier (30) and a low pass filter (34) for producing a DC signal which is fed via a bias/gain control circuit (46) to a bias / gain inputs (56, 58) of one or more amplification stages (60, 62) (e.g. GaAs FET) to provide bias therefore to ensure safe operation, and a priority control circuit (42) responsive to the bias. The priority control circuit (42) operates a power switch (18) that couples the amplification stages (60, 62) to a power supply, only when bias is present on their bias/gain inputs (56, 58) This protects the amplification stages (60, 62) against overcurrent operation. A separate external port (68) to the bias / gain control circuit (46) adjusts the magnitude of the bias to permit amplifier gain and power output to be adjusted. By gating the oscillator ON and OFF, high speed burst mode operation of the amplifier is achieved.

Abstract: A rechargeable battery is charged by connecting the terminals of the battery to an electrical power source. In order to avoid overcharging and undue temperature increase in the battery cell, the course of a least one charging parameter, such as the increase rate of the voltage, is surveyed during at least part of the process of charging the battery. This charging parameter surveyed is compared with a number of reference parameter courses representing idealistic or desireable processes of charging the battery for different starting states of charge of the battery. Such comparisons may for example be made by means of a microprocessor, which may also select the reference course with a starting state of charge similar to the actual starting state of charge of the battery. Thereafter the process of charging the battery may be controlled so as to approximate the course of said charging parameter to the selected reference course. The charging voltage may be limited to a maximum value (Vmax). When such value has been reached the charging process may be terminated after a certain predetermined time period being one of the reference values.

quantitative medium nozzle (64) toward the discharge medium nozzle (66)
and after this, the discharge medium is discharged from the
discharge medium nozzle to be mixed with the quantitative
medium so that the mixture obtained is discharged. The
quantitative medium nozzle (64) has an opening of, for example, a
crescent shape, i.e., a circular shape with a cut-off portion,
and is positioned in such a manner that the nearest point on
the opening end of the quantitative medium nozzle from the

Each transmitter has an address memory in which an identification address may be stored. Each receiver has an address memory in which the addresses of the transmitters may be stored. The data are transmitted in packets. Each transmitter send its data packets within its own characteristic time intervals and each receiver can receive the data packets from one or several transmitters. Transmitters and receivers are provided with corresponding means for initialising a system composed of one or several transmitters and receivers. The initialising means make it possible to initialise the system manually or automatically upon instruction by a user. Thanks to this initialisation the system determines which transmitter(s) are allocated to a receiver, i.e. which transmitters and which receivers belong to a certain system, and what is the length of the characteristic time intervals within which each transmitter transmits data. Each transmitter and each receiver preferably has a control circuit with timing means which activate the transmitters only at their transmission times and which activate the receivers substantially only at the transmission times of one or several transmitters in order to save energy.
