摘要： Apparatus, systems, and methods for achieving thermally-induced renal neuromodulation by intravascular access are disclosed herein. One aspect of the present application, for example, is directed to apparatuses, systems, and methods that incorporate a treatment device comprising an elongated shaft. The elongated shaft is sized and configured to deliver a thermal element to a renal artery via an intravascular path. Thermally-induced renal neuromodulation may be achieved via direct and/or via indirect application of thermal energy to heat or cool neural fibers that contribute to renal function, or of vascular structures that feed or perfuse the neural fibers.

摘要： A switch-mode DC/DC converter and a linear low drop out (LDO) DC/DC regulator are connected in parallel to drive a single load. Both regulators share a common voltage reference, feedback network, input supply and output such that the regulated voltage is identical during each mode of operation. During heavy loads the switch-mode regulator is in operation and the linear regulator is disabled for the highest efficiency possible. Conversely at light loads the linear regulator is in operation with the switch-mode regulator disabled, also maximizing the efficiency. Each regulator senses load current to automatically transition between the appropriate voltage regulators at fixed load current levels. The presented invention also includes a make before break transition scheme of the voltage regulators to minimize the voltage transients.

摘要： An electrical component is mounted on a carrier printed circuit board. A first header connector connects the carrier printed circuit board to a printed circuit board on one side of the electrical component. A second header connector connects the carrier printed circuit board to the printed circuit board on the opposite side of the electrical component. The carrier printed circuit board and the printed circuit board are connected so that the electrical component is sandwiched between the carrier printed circuit board and the printed circuit board. The carrier printed circuit board, the first header connector, and the second header connector protect the electrical component from impact and mechanical stress. The carrier printed circuit board redistributes the electrical connection of the electrical component.
