摘要:
Unit dosage form for delivering drugs into the body in a series of sequential, pulsatile releasing events employs conventional pharmaceutical equipment and processes for optimum economy, reliability, and bioavailability. The system can be used with drugs which cannot be released by diffusion through a porous coating, such as water insoluble drugs. A plurality of populations of pellets is provided within a unit dosage form such as a capsule (8) or tablet. The pellets are composed of a core containing the drug (3) and a swelling agent (4) which expands in volume when exposed to water. The core is enclosed within a membrane or coating which is permeable to water. The membrane is composed of a water insoluble and permeable film forming polymer, a water soluble film forming polymer (11) and a permeability reducing agent (14). When the unit dose releases the pellets into the digestive tract, water diffuses through the coating and into the core. As water is taken up by the swelling agent, the core expands, exerting force on the coating until it bursts, releasing the drug. The permeability reducing agent reduces the rate at which water reaches the swelling agent, thereby delaying release time. The water soluble polymer dissolves, weakening the coating so that it bursts sooner. By varying the proportions of the three coating ingredients and/or coating thickness from one pellet population to another, the release timing of the pellets can be very effectively controlled.

The present invention is directed to a controlled release dosage form which may be made using an osmotic core which contains a drug containing phase which includes a water swellable component and a continuous coating which comprises a major amount of a water resistant polymer and a minor amount of a non-toxic, water soluble, pharmaceutically acceptable compound.

An audio processing system for injecting left and right channel audio signals with a signal having a fundamental frequency component that is half the frequency of the highest amplitude low frequency component in the left and right channel audio signals. The left and right channel audio signals are combined to form a monaural signal that is low pass filtered and applied to a demodulator circuit. The demodulator circuit generates a control signal having a frequency that is half the frequency of the highest amplitude frequency component in the signal at the output of the band pass filter. The control signal varies the phase of the signal at the output of the band pass filter according to the polarity of the control signal. The resulting signal is selectively added to the left and right input signals. In order to prevent the audio processing circuit from producing annoying artifact when the audio signals are vocally generated, a voice detector determines that the input signals are from a vocal source and then disables the audio processing circuit. The voice detector operates by comparing the monaural (left plus right) signal to a differential signal (left minus right). Vocal source material has a relatively higher monaural signal while a musical source has a relatively higher differential signal.

A bobbin for use in a magnetic module is provided. The bobbin comprises a winding body, a first plate and a second plate. The winding body is disposed between the first plate and the second plate, and further comprises a first end, a second end and a through hole. The first end comprises a first buckling portion, and the through hole penetrates the first end and the second end. The first plate includes a second buckling portion and a first opening, while the second buckling portion is adapted to engage with the first buckling portion. The second plate includes a second opening, and the second plate is engaged with the second end of the winding body.

Methods and apparatuses for a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) which can be used in as a magnetic random access memory cell are disclosed. The MTJ comprises a free layer and an insulator layer. The MTJ further comprises a pinned layer with a first region, a second region, and a third region. The second region is of a first length and of a first thickness, and the first region and the third region are of a second length and of a second thickness. A ratio of the first thickness to the second thickness may be larger than 1.2. A ratio of the second length to the first length is larger than 0.5. The first thickness may be larger than a spin diffusion length of a material for the pinned layer. So formed MTJ results in increased tunneling magnetic resistance ratio and reduced critical switch current of the MTJ.

A computer includes a motherboard with a signal receiving port and a switch circuit. The switch circuit includes a force sensing module and a transistor. The transistor includes a first terminal connected to the force sensing module, a second terminal connected to a power source, and a third terminal connected to the signal receiving port. When there is a pressure applied to the force sensing module, the force sensing module outputs a first driving signal to turn on the transistor and enables the computer to maintain its current power on or off state. When there is no pressure applied to the force sensing module, the force sensing module outputs a second driving signal to turn off the transistor and switches on or off the computer.
