An electronic package. The electronic package includes an electronic component having a heat producing device, an attachment piece, and at least two attachment units. Each unit includes an attachment pillar having a mating surface, a solder layer formed on the mating surface, and an attachment pad located on the attachment piece. The pillar of each unit is attached to its unit attachment pad via its unit solder layer and is otherwise attached to the electronic component. One pillar at least partially covers the heat producing device. Prior to attachment of pillars to their associated unit pads, the unit solder layer of the pillar at least partially covering the heat producing device is patterned to cover less than its mating surface, and the pillar at least partially covering the heat producing device is thermally connected to the heat producing device and to its unit attachment pad via its unit solder layer.

A transducer includes a first layer that is selectively deposited in a contact region to form a core, and selectively deposited in a transducer region to form a first element of the transducer. The transducer includes an electrically conductive magnetic deposit. The electrically conductive magnetic deposit forms a sidewall on the core. The electrically conductive magnetic deposit forms a second element of the transducer in the transducer region. The second element of the transducer has a planarized surface that is coplanar with a planarized surface of the sidewall.

Disclosed herein are genetic markers for animal growth, fatness, meat quality, and feed efficiency, methods for identifying such markers, and methods of screening animals to determine those more likely to produce desired growth, fatness, meat quality, and feed efficiency and preferably selecting those animals for future breeding purposes. The markers are based upon the presence or absence of certain polymorphisms in an HMGA nucleotide sequence.

A system and method allow for overriding of a strapping option. A strapping signal places a device (e.g., a processor) in first state or mode (e.g., client or master). An override system places the device in a second state or mode. The second state or mode can be temporary. The changing of the state or mode of the device can be used to perform testing of the chip, during which a memory is written to and read from to verify operation of the chip. The second state or mode of the device may also be used to allow the device to perform alternative functions that are not available during its first state or mode.

Method and device intended for synchronized acquisition of seismic signals by one or more acquisition units suited for seismic signal digitizing, allowing to obtain, for each signal, a series y[n] of samples of these signals readjusted from a reference time on, from a first series x[n] of digitized samples of this seismic signal produced from any initial time prior to the reference time. The method essentially comprises detecting a synchronization signal indicative of this reference time (TR), measuring the effective time difference (D) between the reference time and the initial time, determining coefficients of a digital filter (F) suited to compensate for the fractional part (d) of the measured effective time difference, and applying this compensation digital filter to the first series of samples, which allows to obtain a series of digitized samples readjusted from the reference time. In order to accelerate determination of the filter coefficients depending on the difference D observed, the coefficients of a certain number of intermediate filters corresponding to determined fractions of the sampling interval are preferably precalculated. The method can be applied for seismic prospecting or monitoring, earthquake detection, etc.

To handle multiple concurrent memory requests, a dual-port six transistor (6T) SRAM bit cell is proposed. The dual-port 6T SRAM cell uses independent word lines and bit lines such that the true side and the false side of the bit cell may be accessed independently. Single-ended reads allow the memory system to handle two independent read operations concurrently. Single-ended writes are enabled by adjusting the VDD power voltage supplied to a memory cell when writes are performed such that a single word line and bit line pair can be used write either a logical “0” or logical “1” into either side of the bit cell. Thus, single-ended operation with a voltage assist allows a memory system to handle two concurrent write operations. A write buffer may be added to the memory system to prevent conflicts and thus enable concurrent read operations and write operations in a single cycle.
