A fiber optic connector for mounting on a panel comprises an outer housing defining an interior passage extending longitudinally therethrough, and at least one mounting element connected with the outer housing for mounting the connector onto the panel. The connector also includes a connector insert subassembly inserted through the rear end of the outer housing into the interior passage thereof. The connector insert subassembly is slidable longitudinally within the outer housing, and comprises an inner housing defining an inner passage extending longitudinally therethrough, and a ferrule holder and ferrule mounted within the inner passage of the inner housing. A compression spring is inserted into the rear end of the outer housing abutting the connector insert subassembly, and a spring retainer is inserted into the outer housing behind the compression spring to capture the spring in a compressed condition so as to cause the spring to bias the connector insert subassembly forwardly against a stop defined by the outer housing.

The Financial Instrument Discovery, Transparency, Communication, and Trading Facilitation invention allows parties to virtualize prospective and existing financial instruments (including derivative and other analogous complex financial instruments) into one or more computer software applications via a user authoring software toolkit, and to upload such one or more virtualized instrument to a cloud hosting environment (or analogous online storage ecosystem) for further sharing of such virtualized instruments with interested parties over a communications network where other market participants may engage with the cloud hosting environment and search for, download, and review such virtualized instruments. Further, the Invention allows for downloading parties and authors to communicate directly and to do such “peer to peer” communications on an anonymous, partially anonymous, or non-anonymous basis, and have such communications be secure and/or encrypted.

A single sensing transistor is selectively diode connected to a sense line that is coupled to reference cells and data cells to store a reference current or leakage currents on the gate of the sensing transistor by opening the switch to disconnect the diode connection of the sensing transistor. Other sensing systems may use two transistors and may stores leakage current. A sensing system with capacitance auto-zeroing is included. The sensing system may include a dynamic differential current differential amplifier.

A one-piece fiber optic receptacle is provided for aligning and optically connecting a plug ferrule with a back-side ferrule of like configuration. The fiber optic receptacle includes a receptacle housing defining an internal cavity opening through an external end and an opposed internal end, an alignment sleeve disposed within the internal cavity and received within the internal end of the receptacle housing, and a sleeve retainer secured to the internal end of the receptacle housing and operable for providing access to the alignment sleeve from the internal end of the receptacle housing. The alignment sleeve includes a chamfer for guiding the back-side ferrule into the alignment sleeve. The sleeve retainer has an opening and a plurality of alignment ribs disposed about the opening for permitting angular rotation of the alignment sleeve relative to the sleeve retainer during insertion of the plug ferrule and the back-side ferrule into the alignment sleeve.

A digital multilevel non-volatile memory includes a massive sensing system that includes a plurality of sense amplifiers disposed adjacent subarrays of memory cells. The sense amplifier includes a high speed load, a wide output range intermediate stage and a low impedance output driver. The high speed load provides high speed sensing. The wide output range provides a sensing margin at high speed on the comparison node. The low impedance output driver drives a heavy noisy load of a differential comparator. A precharge circuit coupled to the input and output of the sense amplifier increases the speed of sensing. A differential comparator has an architecture that includes analog bootstrap. A reference sense amplifier has the same architecture as the differential amplifier to reduce errors in offset. The reference differential amplifier also includes a signal multiplexing for detecting the contents of redundant cells and reference cells.

An integrated MIS capacitor has two substantially identical MIS capacitors. A first capacitor comprises a first region of a first conductivity type adjacent to a channel region of the first conductivity type in a semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate has a second conductivity type. A gate electrode is insulated and spaced apart from the channel region of the first capacitor. The second capacitor is substantially identical to the first capacitor and is formed in the same semiconductor substrate. The gate electrode of the first capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the second capacitor and the gate electrode of the second capacitor is electrically connected to the first region of the first capacitor. In this manner, the capacitors are connected in an anti-parallel configuration. A capacitor which has high capacitance densities, low process complexity, ambipolar operation, low voltage and temperature coefficient, low external parasitic resistance and capacitance and good matching characteristics for use in analog designs that can be integrated with existing semiconductor processes results.

A stacked gate nonvolatile memory floating gate device has a control gate. Programming of the cell in the array is accomplished by hot channel electron injection from the drain to the floating gate. Erasure occurs by Fowler-Nordheim tunneling of electrons from the floating gate to the control gate. Finally, to increase the density, each cell can be made in a trench.

A preconnectorized outdoor cable streamlines the deployment of optical waveguides into the last mile of an optical network. The preconnectorized outdoor cable includes a cable and at least one plug connector. The plug connector is attached to a first end of the cable, thereby connectorizing at least one optical waveguide. The cable has at least one optical waveguide, at least one tensile element, and a cable jacket. Various cable designs such as figure-eight or flat cables may be used with the plug connector. In preferred embodiments, the plug connector includes a crimp assembly having a crimp housing and a crimp band. The crimp housing has two half-shells being held together by the crimp band for securing the at least one tensile element. When fully assembled, the crimp housing fits into a shroud of the preconnectorized cable. The shroud aides in mating the preconnectorized cable with a complimentary receptacle.

A differential non-volatile content addressable memory array has a differential non-volatile content addressable memory cell which uses a pair of non-volatile storage elements. Each of the non-volatile storage elements can be a split-gate floating gate transistor or a stack gate floating gate transistor having a first terminal, a second terminal, a channel therebetween and a floating gate over at least a portion of the channel to control the conduction of electrons in the channel, and a control gate. The floating gate storage transistor can be in one of two states: a first state, such as erase, in which current can flow between the first terminal and the second terminal, and a second state, such as programmed, in which substantially no current flows between the first terminal and the second terminal. A pair of differential compare data lines connects to the control gate of each of the pair of non-volatile floating gate transistors. A match line connects to the first terminal of each of the pair of non-volatile floating gate transistors to a first voltage. Finally, the second terminals of each storage element is connected to a second voltage, different from the first voltage. A current passing through the memory cell is indicative of a mis-match between the contents of the compare data lines and the contents of the storage elements.
