Abstract: Medical devices, and in particular implantable medical devices, may be coated to minimize or substantially eliminate a biological organism's reaction to the introduction of the medical device to the organism. The medical devices may be coated with any number of biocompatible materials. Therapeutic drugs, agents or compounds may be mixed with the biocompatible materials and affixed to at least a portion of the medical device. These therapeutic agents or compounds may also further reduce a biological organism's reaction to the introduction of the medical device to the organism. In addition, these therapeutic drugs, agents and/or compounds may be utilized to promote healing, including the prevention of thrombosis. The drugs, agents, and/or compounds may also be utilized to treat specific disorders, including vulnerable plaque. Implantable coated medical devices may be processed through annealing to better control the elution characteristics of the therapeutic agents. Furthermore, annealing leads to better therapeutic agent stability and a larger device shelf-life.

Abstract: An AC to DC converter comprises a bi-directional switch array converter which converts a three phase AC supply at 50/60 Hz to a high frequency single phase drive for a series resonant parallel loaded tank. The tank is transformer coupled to a rectifier and filter to give a high voltage isolated DC supply to drive a load. The switching of the converter is based on control of the resonant tank to operate as close to a desired tank reference voltage as possible.
