A system and method of designing the physical layout of an SoC incorporating row-based placement of analog standard cells whose heights are constrained to a predetermined row height or integer multiple thereof. A library of analog standard cells may be utilized by an ECAD tool to map, place, and route analog and mixed signal circuits in a manner similar to how such ECAD tool may utilize a library of digital standard cells to map, place, and route digital circuits. Mapping, placing, and routing of digital, analog, and mixed signal circuits may proceed within a unified ECAD SoC physical design flow. Finally, a general type analog standard cell is taught to further increase the speed and efficiency of analog and mixed-signal SoC layout.

Various embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for analog to digital conversion. For example, a retimed analog to digital converter is disclosed that includes a first set of sub-level interleaves and a second set of sub-level interleaves. The first set of sub-level interleaves includes a first sub-level interleave with a first set of comparators synchronized to a first clock phase, and a second sub-level interleave with a second set of comparators synchronized to a second clock phase. The second set of sub-level interleaves includes a third sub-level interleave with a third set of comparators synchronized to a third clock phase, and a fourth sub-level interleave with a fourth set of comparators synchronized to a fourth clock phase. A global interleave selects one of the first set of comparators based at least in part on an output from the second set of sub-level interleaves, and one of the third set of comparators based at least in part on an output from the first set of sub-level interleaves. In some instances of the aforementioned embodiments, an output of the first sub-level interleave and an output of the second sub-level interleave are synchronized to the third clock phase, and an output of the third sub-level interleave and an output of the fourth sub-level interleave are synchronized to the first clock phase.

摘要:
An ESD protection circuit for protecting a host circuit coupled to a signal pad from an ESD event occurring at the signal pad includes at least one MEMS switch which is electrically connected to the signal pad. The MEMS switch includes a first contact structure adapted for connection to the signal pad, and a second contact structure adapted for connection to a voltage supply source. The first and second contact structures are coupled together during the ESD event for shunting an ESD current from the signal pad to the voltage supply source. The first and second contact structures are electrically isolated from one another in the absence of the ESD event. At least one of the first and second contact structures includes a passivation layer for reducing contact adhesion between the first and second contact structures.

摘要:
A bed for supporting a patient having a seat panel and a back panel coupled together by a joint assembly that allows the panels to rotate about an axis coincident with the patient's hip joint.
摘要:
A bed comprises an inflatable mattress supported on a platform of articulable links by a support system mounted on a weigh frame. The weigh frame is supported on a base frame supported relative to a floor. A pneumatic system includes a platform-mounted blower directing air through passageways in the articulable links. An exhaust passageway parallels the pressure passageway for exhausting opposite the blower. Air flow into and out of air cells in the mattress are controlled by valves coupling the pressurized air chamber and exhaust chamber to cell ports. A connector assembly is used to couple the cells to the platform, to adjacent cells, and to tubes connected to other cells. An alternative pneumatic system includes fans distributed on the platform in association with sets of mattress cells. A footboard assembly is formed as two gates that swing out from the foot of the bed. Each gate has a storable tray that is positionable on either side of the gate. A headboard has a removable central panel for providing emergency patient access. Additionally, each corner of the headboard has a telescoping equipment support post positionable at a variety of heights and having equipment supports that automatically drop into place upon removal from storage in the headboard. A three-point weight sensing system tracks patient weight and generates pre-exit and exit alarms based on sensed movement of the patient on the mattress. A portable control unit wraps around a guard rail to provide both patient and nurse controls, and uses a unitary membrane to cover exposed faces of the controls and resiliently wrap around the guard rail. Selectively engagable guide or fifth wheels are mounted to the base frame to provide direction stability during bed movement. The platform is articulable to allow a patient to enter or exit the bed in a standing position. An adjustable stand up board is selectively positionable at the foot of the bed to take the patient's weight during this process. A vertically telescoping guard rail elevation system provides energy storage to resist lowering and assist raising the guard rail. A brace is provided for seating the platform on the weigh frame when the bed is in a low position and to assist in movement of the bed longitudinally when in the low position. An expanding joint between panels allows the panels to separate with increasing angle between the panels. A hydraulic valve produces linear changes in fluid flow with linear changes in a valve plunger.
