Abstract: An essential oil product obtained from the Indian mulberry (Morinda citrifolia) plant and the process of extracting and purifying the oil is disclosed. According to one embodiment, the seeds from the Indian mulberry fruit are dried, preferably to a moisture content less than 10%. The seeds are ground or shredded to facilitate the removal of natural occurring oil. The shredded or ground flakes are pressed to expel Morinda citrifolia oil. The remaining seed cake is then mixed with a food grade, non-polar extraction solvent such as hexane. The mixture is heated for a sufficient length of time to complete the extraction process. The extraction solvent is then evaporated from the mixture leaving the Morinda citrifolia oil. The oil is further refined, bleached, dried, and deodorized to remove free fatty acids and other unwanted components. An antioxidant can optionally be added to stabilize the oil for further processing or packaging.

Abstract: The invention discloses a current mode step attenuation control circuit with digital technology. The circuit comprises: several stages of current attenuation circuit serially connected; the digital control input port, the common mode feedback signal input port and the bias input port are connected to corresponding a digital control signal, a common mode feedback current and a bias voltage, respectively. An analog input signal inputted to the circuit is controlled by the digital control signal to implement step attenuation. The circuit is original in conception. By using conducting resistance of MOS transistor to form equivalent resistance or match of current source for attenuation, the circuit eliminates dependence on resistance match of conventional technology. As step attenuation is directly controlled by digital control signal, so transmission speed is fast, phase delay is small, control accuracy is high and is also suitable for digital integrated circuit manufacturing technology. <IMAGE>
