Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to circuit layouts that are compatible with printing electronic inks, printed circuits formed by printing an electronic ink or a combination of printing and conventional blanket deposition and photolithography, and methods of forming circuits by printing electronic inks onto structures having print-compatible shapes. The layouts include features having (i) a print-compatible shape and (ii) an orientation that is either orthogonal or parallel to the orientation of every other feature in the layout.
Abstract:
Circuits and circuit elements configured to generate a random delay, a monostable oscillator, circuits configured to broadcasting repetitive messages wireless systems, and methods for forming such circuits, devices, and systems. The present invention advantageously provides relatively low cost delay generating circuitry based on TFT technology in wireless electronics applications, particularly in RFID applications. Such novel, technically simplified, low cost TFT-based delay generating circuitry enables novel wireless circuits, devices and systems, and methods for producing such circuits, devices and systems.
