摘要:
Embodiments of the invention teach a method for depositing a copper seed layer to a substrate surface, generally to a barrier layer. The method includes placing the substrate surface into a copper solution, wherein the copper solution includes complexed copper ions. A current or bias is applied across the substrate surface and the complexed copper ions are reduced to deposit the copper seed layer onto the barrier layer.

A method of manufacturing optical ribbons, wherein the optical fibers are paid out by an optical fiber pay-out unit, and grouped together in a nozzle where they are coated in a coating material which is caused to set in order to form an optical fiber ribbon. A plurality of groups of optical fibers are formed in parallel in as many nozzles as possible, and the groups of optical fibers, which are coated in a coating material, are caused to set simultaneously using a single setting means for setting the coating material, in order to form as many ribbons of optical fibers as possible, thereby enabling the manufacturing cost of a ribbon to be reduced.

A method and a device for producing an imitative animal's voice to embellish a music. The animals voice is analyzed and approximated into a waveform represented exclusively by HIGH/LOW, and the time data X of each group of consecutive intervals of the same state are stored in a first ROM. The data X are stored in the consecutive addresses of a first read only memory ROM. When the ROM receives a pulse from a first address counter, the datum X stored in the mth address of the ROM will be sent to a first divider means if the address count of the first address counter is m. To further melodize the imitative animal's voice, the clocks from a first clock generator are compressed or expanded. The data Y, Z of the notes of the desired melody are stored in the consecutive addresses of a second ROM to respectively control the average (or apparent) pitch of the produced imitative voice and the duration of the voice at a given pitch. The device to melodize the imitative voice further comprises a second clock generator, of which the period t.sub.u " is equal to the length of the shortest note of the melody.

摘要:
A wheeled vehicle comprising a power-driven spider assembly for ascending and descending stairs. The vehicle includes an angular position sensor providing input to a controller operable to control a servo-motor to effectively lock the position of the spider relative to the frame, regardless of the hand truck's spatial orientation relative to a vertical plane, or any balancing of the hand truck. The angular position sensor provides input to the controller, which is programmed with predefined angular zones of instability, and causes the controller to accelerate rotation of the spiders through those zones when the wheeled vehicle is in the descent mode, to avoid instability of the hand truck. A hand truck may include a removable basket and/or a pivotable platform usable to transport loads.

An exemplary method includes selecting multiple electrodes located in a patient; acquiring position information during one or more cardiac cycles for the multiple electrodes where the acquiring includes using each of the electrodes for measuring one or more electrical potentials in an electrical localization field established in the patient; calculating one or more vector metrics based on the acquired position information for one or more vectors, each vector defined by two of the multiple electrodes; and analyzing the one or more vector metrics to assess cardiac performance during the one or more cardiac cycles. Various other methods, devices, systems, etc., are also disclosed.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for supplying operating voltages to a plurality of electronic devices is disclosed. A plurality of power supply modules of a modular power supply may output voltages to at least two electronic devices respectively. The apparatus may identify a failure of one of the power supply modules. The electronic device may be disconnected from the failed power supply module, and then reconnected to a functional power supply module of the modular power supply. switching a supplied voltage of the functional power supply module of the modular power supply, wherein the supplied voltage matches the set output voltage of the failed power supply module. If necessary, a supplied voltage of a functional power supply module may be switched to match the set output voltage of the failed power supply module.
摘要:
An ablation catheter is provided for ablating internal tissue of a patient. The catheter includes a distal end that is adapted to be inserted into a body cavity relative to a desired location therein (e.g., within the heart). An ablation electrode is connected relative to the distal end of the catheter for providing ablation energy to patient tissue. A heat sink is provided that is in thermal contact with the ablation electrode. The heat sink, in addition to being in thermal contact with the ablation electrode, is electrically isolated from the ablation electrode. This allows the heat sink to conduct heat away from the ablation electrode without dissipating electrical energy from the electrode. In this regard, the heat sink may prevent build-up of excess heat within the electrode that may result in blood coagulation and/or tissue charring.
摘要:
A method includes selecting an electrode located in a patient; acquiring position information with respect to time for the electrode where the acquiring uses the electrode for repeatedly measuring electrical potentials in an electrical localization field established in the patient; calculating a stability metric for the electrode based on the acquired position information with respect to time; and deciding if the selected electrode, as located in the patient, has a stable location for sensing biological electrical activity, for delivering electrical energy or for sensing biological electrical activity and delivering electrical energy. Position information may be acquired during one or both of intrinsic or paced activation of a heart and respective stability indexes calculated for each activation type.
