Abstract: An assembly is provided for heating a liquid, such as coffee. The assembly
includes a container (22a,22b) in which the liquid is retained, first (69) and second (71)
electrodes associated with the container (22a,22b), an energy source with which the
container (22a,22b) can be engaged such that the first electrode comes into contact
with the energy source, and a control circuit for supplying voltage from the energy
source to the first electrode so that current will pass from the first electrode through
the liquid and to the second electrode. Liquid in the container (22a,22b) contacts the
first and second electrodes and provides an electrical path from the first electrode to
the second electrode.

Abstract: Herein described is a successive-approximation analog-digital converter
comprising a logic control circuit (1) timed by means of an external clock
signal (clock). Said logic control circuit (1) comprises a register (11), which
contains a first digital signal (D1) formed of N bits and obtained from a first
analog-digital conversion. Said control circuit (1) is suitable for producing a
second digital signal (D) formed of N bits through a second analog-digital
conversion in N clock cycles. Said analog-digital converter comprises a
digital-analog converter (2) which converts the second digital signal (D) sent
by the logic circuit (1) to an analog signal (A), a comparator (3) which
compares the analog signal (A) with an analog signal (B) which is in input to
the analog-digital converter. The converter comprises a device (20, 4) which
enables the increase of the analog signal (A) in output from the digital-analog
converter (2) and in input to the comparator (3) of a preset value
(Voffs) when the bit of the first digital signal (D1) which corresponds in
position to the bit of the second digital signal (D) which must be decided in
a clock cycle is zero.

Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: A micro-device including an insulating substrate having a recess
formed on the surface thereof, and a beam-like structure made of silicon
formed on the front surface of the insulating substrate to surround the
recess. The beam-like structure includes at least one functional section,
and the functional section has a supporting section bonded onto the
insulating substrate and at least one cantilever formed integrally with
the supporting section while extending across the recess. The micro
device also has an electrically conductive film electrically connected
with the supporting section and formed on the surface of the recess at
least in a portion right under a cantilever. The electrically conductive
film prevents the surface of the recess from being positively charged in
the dry etching process. Thus the etching gas having positive charge is
not subjected to electrical repulsion of the recess and does not impinge
on the back surface of the silicon substrate, and therefore erosion of the
cantilever does not occur. As a result, since the beam-like structure is
formed with high accuracy in the shape and dimensions, the micro
device of the present invention can improve a high reliability and a
degree of freedom in design of the micro device.
