Abstract:
Described herein are a channel, system and method for monitoring voltages. Typically, the system includes multiple channels, each for sampling one of the voltages. The channels are physically and electrically coupled to a back end board on which is mounted a field programmable gate array (FPGA) that instructs the channels to simultaneously sample the voltages. Optionally, the channel is powered using an power supply that is isolated from the back end board, and transmits information over an electrically isolated connection to the back end board. The channel also includes voltage signal processing circuitry for processing the voltage signal on board the channel, and has stored on it channel identification information composed of at least one of an operating mode of the channel and a serial number of the channel, which can assist with voltage signal processing.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to improving the ability of a hyphenated instrument to analyze a sample benefiting from having the first instrument's analysis of the same sample. A fast switching machenism can be used as the interface between an ion mobility spectrometer (IMS) and a mass spectrometer (MS) such that the obtained IMS spectrum is converted into a timing diagram that controls the vacuum inlet's size dynamically during analysis of a neutral and/or charged chemical and/or biological species such that a smaller pumping system can be used.
Abstract:
A sub-pixel circuit, display panel and driving method of the display panel are provided. The display panel has a plurality of data lines, scan lines and sub-pixel circuits. At least one of the sub-pixel circuits is electrically coupled to one data line and three scan lines. The sub-pixel circuit determines whether to receive data from the coupled data line or not according to scan signals transmitted on the coupled three scan lines, and controls transmittance itself accordingly. Specifically, the scan signals transmitted on the coupled three scan lines are different from each other.
Abstract:
One aspect of the present invention is to extract multiple ionic species in a FAIMS into one or more IMS drift tubes simultaneously. By adjusting FAIMS operational parameters, ions in FAIMS are detected on IMS detectors through separation in FAIMS and/or separation and collection in the IMS. This method provides a continuous separation of specific ions from an ion swarm by employing a high-field differential mobility analyzer (FAIMS) with a plurality of orthogonal transitions paths spaced incrementally along the electrodes which allow additional separation by a conventional IMS drift tube. The components of the sample can be collected or detected.
Abstract:
An exemplary pixel circuit and a flat display panel using the same are provided. The pixel circuit includes three sub-electrode control circuits. The sub-electrode control circuits are controlled by two scan lines to receive data transmitted from two data lines. One of the three sub-electrode control circuits adjusts stored data by charge sharing. Accordingly, a display control of the pixel circuit is achieved by the three sub-electrode control circuits.

A signal analyzer includes a sampling unit, a filter unit coupled to the sampling unit, a computing unit coupled to the filter unit, and an output unit coupled to the computing unit. The sampling unit is operable to sample a time domain signal from a target system according to a predetermined sampling frequency to obtain a sampling signal. The filter unit is configured to perform filter processing upon the sampling signal so as to filter out harmonic frequency components from the sampling signal, thereby obtaining a fundamental frequency signal having a plurality of sample points. The computing unit is operable to compute a signal parameter set for each of temporally adjacent pairs of the sample points of the fundamental frequency signal. The output unit is configured to output information about dynamic behavior of the target system based upon the signal parameter sets computed by the computing unit.
