Abstract:
The present invention discloses a timing controller and a liquid crystal display comprising the same, wherein, the timing controller comprises a data converting module (10) for converting inputted serial video stream data into parallel video stream data, and a memory (30) for storing the parallel video stream data, and also comprises an output module (50) connected with the memory (30) for generating a predetermined clock signal and outputting the parallel video stream data under the control of the predetermined clock signal. With the technical solution of the present invention, the problem in the prior art is solved that the rate of the outputted video stream data is affected by the input. In addition, as the outputted video stream data is controlled by the clock signal it generates, this solves the problem of long locking duration of the timing controller in the prior art.
Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device is disclosed. A p-type substrate is doped to form an N-well in a selected portion of a p-type substrate adjacent an anode region of the substrate. A p-type doped region is formed in the anode region of the p-type substrate. The p-type doped region and the N-well form a p-n junction.
Abstract:
The inventive system includes a host, a network including a security gateway, and a public application. Established are an access session between the network and the host and an application session between the public application and the network. An application session record is created for the application session, and includes the user's public user identity used to access the public application, the user's private user identity used to access the network, a host identity, and an application session time, To determine the private user identity for the application session, the security gateway sends a query with the host identity and the application session time. These are compared with the host identity and access session time in an access session record, if they match, then the private user identity in the access session record is returned, and it is stored as the private user identity in the application session record.
Abstract:
A system for a meter configured to determine an analyte concentration of a fluid sample includes a housing and a temperature sensor disposed within the housing. The system also includes a processor configured to receive temperature data from the temperature sensor upon the meter entering one of a charge state and a discharge state. The processor is further configured to predict a temperature value that approximates the ambient temperature outside of the housing. The predicted temperature value is based on historical temperature data received from the temperature sensor such that the predicted temperature value remains constant if a recently received temperature value remains within predetermined upper and lower temperature thresholds and the recently received temperature value exceeds the at least one predicted temperature value.
Abstract:
A test sensor includes a body, a first conductive trace, a second conductive trace, and a third conductive trace. The body includes a first region that has a fluid-receiving area, a second region separate from the first region, and a first temperature sensing interface disposed at or adjacent to the fluid-receiving area. The fluid-receiving area receives a sample. The first trace is disposed on the body, and at least a portion of the first trace is disposed in the first region. The second and third traces are disposed on the body. The third trace extends from the first to the second regions. The third trace is connected to the first trace at the first temperature sensing interface. The third trace includes a different material than the first trace. A first thermocouple is formed at the first temperature sensing interface. The thermocouple provides temperature data to determine an analyte concentration.

Abstract:
This application discloses a background subtraction-mediated data dependent acquisition method useful in mass spectrometry analysis. The method includes subtraction of background data from precursor ion spectra of a sample in real-time to obtain mass data of component(s) of interest and performs data-dependent acquisition on the component(s) of interest based on the resultant mass data from the background subtraction step. The present invention also encompasses mass spectrometer systems capable of background subtraction-mediated data-dependent acquisition and computer programs adapted for use in the background-subtraction-mediated data-dependent acquisition. The invention thus provides highly sensitive data-dependent acquisition for minor components of interest in a sample.
