    Abstract: A restart circuit for causing an electronic ballast to perform a restart in response to reconnecting any lamp of a multiple lamp configuration of the electronic ballast to the electronic ballast is disclosed. The electronic ballast includes a filament health check circuit for providing a first current through a monitored filament of the lamps to a controller of the ballast. The controller restarts the electronic ballast when a determined ratio of the first current to a reference current indicates that the monitored filament has been disconnected or broken (i.e., the first current substantially decreases) and is subsequently replaced or reconnected to the ballast (i.e., the first current returns to a predetermined level). The ballast further comprises a dv/dt circuit for reducing the first current for a transient time period in response to reconnecting a filament other than the monitored filament to the ballast, causing the controller to restart the ballast.

    Abstract: Nonvolatile memory elements are provided that have resistive switching metal oxides. The nonvolatile memory elements may be formed by depositing a metal-containing material on a silicon-containing material. The metal-containing material may be oxidized to form a resistive-switching metal oxide. The silicon in the silicon-containing material reacts with the metal in the metal-containing material when heat is applied. This forms a metal silicide lower electrode for the nonvolatile memory element. An upper electrode may be deposited on top of the metal oxide. Because the silicon in the silicon-containing layer reacts with some of the metal in the metal-containing layer, the resistive-switching metal oxide that is formed is metal deficient when compared to a stoichiometric metal oxide formed from the same metal.
