    摘要: A pair of airfoil blades having a longitudinal axis coincident with one another. Each blade is bent at the center on the plane of the chord. Each blade has an airfoil tip blade placed at the outer most trailing edge. The blades are affixed by their root ends to opposite ends of a torsion shaft. The blade chords are offset from one another, which defines a blade pitch angle. The torsion shaft is journaled perpendicular through a driveshaft, whereas the rotation of the blades can transfer through the torsion shaft to the driveshaft and cause the driveshaft to turn, eliminating the need for a hub. The blades are adapted to pivot along with the torsion shaft. The blades lie in substantially the same plane, and are adapted for rotation in a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal axis of the driveshaft. Each blade has an airfoil shaped fluid gate valve disposed on the leading edge.

    摘要: An Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) protection circuit (9) includes a plurality of I/O and power supply pad cells (22, 40) that comprise external pads (31, 41) and circuitry requiring ESD protection. The protection circuit includes an array of shunting devices (36, 46) coupled in parallel between an ESD bus (14) and a VSS bus (18) and distributed among the plurality of pad cells. One or more trigger circuits (50) control the shunting devices. ESD events are coupled from any stressed pad onto two separate buses: the ESD bus which routes the high ESD currents to the positive current electrodes of the multiple shunting devices, and a Boost bus (12) which controls the trigger circuits. During an ESD event, the trigger circuits drive the control electrodes of the shunting devices to a voltage level greater than possible with prior art circuits, thereby reducing the on-resistance of the shunting devices.

    摘要: A number of small wells under the isolation layer are formed using the same mask made of photoresist and implant step that is used for the regular wells. The small wells are formed close enough together so that they merge during normal subsequent semiconductor processing to form a merged well. The normal wells and the small wells have a concentration that is greater than that of the merged well. The desired merging of the small wells is ensured by making sure that the small wells are sufficiently close together that the normal diffusion of well implants, which occurs from the particular semiconductor process that is being used, results in the merging. One desirable use of the merged well, with its lower doping concentration, is as a resistor that has more resistance than that of the regular well without requiring an additional implant.
