摘要： A sensor assembly for an in vivo physiological pressure measurement has a member with a distal end to ease placement of the catheter sensor assembly in vivo. A passage is preferably in an intermediate part of the member and is open but covered by a pressure responsive sensor sealing the passage. The sensor has a first side away from the intermediate part for exposure to in vivo physiological pressure and a second side in fluid communication with the passage. A pressure connecting means for inhibiting liquid communication located between the physiological pressure and the passage is arranged for selectively connection therebetween so that when connected the pressure on the first and second sides of the sensor can be substantially equalized. A control ex vivo makes the selective connection of the second side of the pressure sensor and the physiological pressure. A method for rezeroing an in vivo pressure sensor has the steps of obtaining a signal from the first side of the sensor at distal end, using a pressure substantially equal to the in vivo pressure and applying that pressure to the second side of the sensor.

摘要： A head gimbal assembly allows a simplified, automatable electrical interconnection from the read/write head slider to the head suspension assembly electrical interconnect. The head suspension assembly is constructed as a laminated structure. Using a read/write head slider with electrical bond pads on an upper horizontal surface (i.e, the head slider surface bonded to the head suspension assembly and opposite to the disk-confronting head slider surface), electrical interconnection to bonding zones on the upper horizontal surface of the gimbal region is established using standard automated or semi-automated wire bond tooling technology.

摘要： A method of cutting a pattern in a hollow, tubular workpiece to form a stent or the like involves the use of a novel workpiece fixture. The workpiece fixture is rigidly carried on a laser cutting tool to support a long piece of stock tubing in a cantilever manner beneath the laser beam of the cutting tool. The fixture is spaced from the laser beam by a distance which is in a range of approximately the same as to slightly greater than the length of any axial repeat in the pattern. The laser beam cuts the pattern in the stock tubing piece as the stock tubing is advanced past the laser beam. The cutting takes place in a zone that is close to the end of the fixture and the cantilever support provided thereby.
