Title: Coating thickness measurement gauge
Inventor: AIDUN RASHID K
IPC: G01B7/00
Filed: 1991-05-31
Abstract: A coating thickness gauge includes a measurement transducer and a particularly advantageous probe arrangement. The probe arrangement includes a probe assembly and a probe housing that encircles the probe assembly. The probe assembly may include an inductor that forms a part of an LC oscillator. The gauge is able to measure the thickness of coatings on magnetic and non-magnetic substrates through use of the same probe assembly. Alternatively, the probe assembly can include a capacitor forming a part of an LC or an RC oscillator. The bottom surface of the probe housing has two oppositely positioned V-shaped grooves formed therein for facilitating the measurement of coating thicknesses on convex surfaces. The outer peripheral surface of the probe housing includes two spaced apart flat surfaces connected together by two arcuate surfaces for stabilizing the gauge during measurement of coating thicknesses on concave surfaces. The probe assembly is mounted within the gauge housing in a manner that is adapted to facilitate movement of the probe assembly in a substantially vertical plane. All functions of the gauge can be operated through the use of the two keys and the gauge only requires a zeroing adjustment rather than a several step calibration procedure.

Abstract: A multiprocessor system includes a plurality of central subsystem (CSS) units, a plurality of memory units and input/output units which connect in common to a system bus for transferring requests between a pair of units on a priority basis defined by a distributed bus priority network included as part of the system bus. A private bus (P bus) connects all of the CSS units and memory units in common for high speed block data transfers. Each CSS unit includes input circuits which couple to the priority network for detecting when the system bus is in an idle state. P bus logic circuits couple to the P bus and generate a transfer request in response to a request from its CSS unit only when the P bus is detected to be in an idle state. The idle signals from both buses are used to generate a system bus request for P bus access only when both buses are in an idle state so as to eliminate the need to contend for system bus use.

Abstract: A method for reducing the anisotropy of an LCP film and producing a film having modified or more balanced properties. The film is calendered by one or more nip rolls in the transverse direction at a temperature sufficient to soften the polymer film so that it will flow under pressure from the rolls, but not so high as to melt the polymer. The nip roll gap and pressure may be set to produce various drawdown ratios. Generally, the greater is the drawdown ratio, the greater is the modification in the film's properties.

Abstract: A method of measuring the amount of cyclosporin in a sample suspected of containing cyclosporin is disclosed. A method of inactivating interfering cross-reactive material in an assay for measuring the amount of cyclosporin in a sample suspected of containing cyclosporin is also disclosed. Compositions wherein cyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier or a label, optionally through a linking group, at an alanine nitrogen atom of the cyclic backbone of cyclosporin are also disclosed. Compositions wherein atiocyclosporin is conjugated, optionally through a linking group, to an immunogenic carrier or a label are also disclosed. Where cyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier, the conjugates may be used as immunogens for the preparation of antibodies which are capable of recognizing cyclosporin. Where atiocyclosporin is conjugated to an immunogenic carrier, the conjugates may be used as immunogens for the preparation of antibodies which are capable of recognizing interfering cross-reactive material but substantially incapable of recognizing cyclosporin or cyclosporin-label conjugates. Where cyclosporin is conjugated to a label, the conjugates may be used as part of a signal producing system in cyclosporin assays. Both the antibodies and label conjugates are useful in the disclosed assay methods.

Abstract: A voltage generator for low power applications includes a circuit for generating, controlling and maintaining a high voltage (VCCP) for low power applications in an integrated circuit. The circuit includes separate standby circuits (110, 300, 478) and active circuits (200, 478', 500) for pumping V CCP  of a DRAM under different circumstances. The standby and active circuits operate independently of one another, but may operate simultaneously, to pump charge to V CCP . The standby circuit is generally a low power circuit activated in response to power up and leakage current conditions to maintain the high voltage (V CCP ). The active circuit is generally a larger circuit and can pump more current. The active circuit is generally responsive to the word lines being driven. Accordingly, the voltage generator can maintain V CCP  while minimizing power consumption in DRAM.
