摘要:
A network arrangement uses a poll select control protocol and a loop back arrangement at each node for equalizing transmission delay from each node to a central station. Delays at each node can be adjusted to start timing in response to a broadcast signal indicating an amount of delay to be applied from the start of a synchronization interval to the beginning of transmission of data collected at the nodes. The arrangement is particularly useful in the field of data acquisition and particularly in the area of seismic sensing.

A power on reset circuit, preferably for an integrated circuit, detects application of voltage, starts a phase locked loop one application of voltage is detected but inhibits all clock used for digital logic operations until voltage stability is achieved. If a switched converter is used, the duty cycle of the switched converter is held at unity for a period of time before it is set to that needed to achieve the desired chip operating voltage. Clocks controlling other circuits can be released in stages after the duty cycle of the switched converter is set to its operating voltage level.
摘要:
A switched converter uses two series connected complementary CMOS devices and has a square wave source for activating one CMOS device while deactivating the other; and a break before make circuit connected between the square wave source and said complementary CMOS devices to ensure that one device is substantially completely off before the other device turns on. The switched converter is programmable as to frequency, phase and duty cycle.

摘要:
A sinc filter is implemented by partitioning 1 bit wide incoming data into multibit words. The multibit words are multiplied by respective coefficient sets. Some multibit words are twisted by inverting the bit order and the multiplied using the same coefficient sets used for untwisted words. Multiplications are implemented using either look up tables or logic and the filter is implemented using only shifts and additions. The sinc filter is particularly useful applications in the field of data acquisition and particularly in the area of seismic sensing.
摘要:
A signal processing integrated circuit has having a chopper stabilized, multistage, feedforward amplifier and a delta sigma analog to digital converter. Filtering of the output of the output from the analog to digital converter comprises a sinc5 filter and a sinc3 filter. The sinc3 filter may be bypassed. A rough buffer permits quick charging of a sample and hold capacitor during part of the charge cycle and slower but more accurate charging during the remainder of the charge cycle.
摘要:
A buffer arrangement uses separate amplifiers for handling for positive going signal transitions and for negative going signal transitions respectively. A comparator detects the direction of transition and a switching element connects signal input lines in the appropriate sense to the respective amplifiers based on the output of the comparator. This permits amplifiers optimized for positive or negative going transitions to be used. The output of the amplifiers can be connected across a sampling capacitor

The present invention provides methods for enhancing the efficiency of cell electroporation using dielectrophoresis-assisted cell localization and uses thereof in a microfluidic biochip system. Cells are first subject to dielectrophoresis and localized to regions where the electric field intensity is high enough to render cells electroporated. The invention enhances the efficiency of in situ cell electroporation on a traditional microfluidic biochip.
