摘要:
An integrated circuit can have a first substrate supporting a magnetic field sensing element and a second substrate supporting another magnetic field sensing element. The first and second substrates can be arranged in a variety of configurations. Another integrated circuit can have a first magnetic field sensing element and second different magnetic field sensing element disposed on surfaces thereof.

A method and system are provided for connecting a subscriber to an advertiser prior to call completion in an intelligent telecommunications network. A subscriber telephone line is provisioned to receive advertisements which are stored in an originating switch in the telecommunications network. Once the subscriber dials a telephone number to call another party, the switch delays normal call processing and begins playing the advertisement to the subscriber. If the subscriber wishes to be connected to the advertiser, she may provide a predetermined input to the switch. The switch, upon receiving the predetermined input, retrieves routing information, including the telephone number associated with the advertiser, from a network component and connects the subscriber with the advertiser. If the subscriber does not wish to be connected to the advertiser, the subscriber may wait a predetermined period after playback of the advertisement to be automatically connected to the telephone number of the originally called party. The subscriber may also cancel the advertisement during playback to be connected to the originally called party. The switches and network components in the telecommunications network may be advanced intelligent network (AIN) components.
摘要:
A structurally independent load bearing support system for use in a cargo vehicle and supporting one or more levels of accessories to provide one or more additional levels of load bearing surfaces in addition to the floor of the cargo vehicle. The structurally independent load bearing support system comprises at least two side frames comprising a plurality of longitudinally spaced vertical members and at least one transverse member connecting the two side frames.

A method of paying on blackjack and blackjack derivative games using a paytable, but permitting retention of traditional rules of play. Additionally, a means of paying out greater than 100% in expected value on blackjack and blackjack derivative games by involving a required qualification process.
摘要:
A gaming device is described where various events pay players in multiple classes of credits. One class of special credits has no cash value and may only be rewagered in an attempt to win traditional cash-equivalent credits. The player decides when to play a bonus game where the special credits are bet.
摘要:
A new method for creating slot machines and other gaming devices where outcomes are fair, but players and operators realize traditional payback and hold percentages, respectively.

The present invention facilitates the sharing of resources among multiple applications hosted on a server using shared resource providers. A shared resource provider is a logical grouping of shared services and resources to support the shared services, and is associated with one or more applications hosted on a computing device. The server fulfills requests for the shared services from the shared resource provider with which the requesting application is associated. Shared resource providers may be associated with many different applications, but each application may be associated with only one shared resource provider. The shared services may be configured for consumption by the applications at the server level, at the level of the shared resource provider, and the level of the application.

A hermetic implantable medical device (IMD) is provided with a single or multi-pin arrangement including selected glass to metal seals for a feedthrough including a ceramic disk member coupled to the sealing glass surface in potential contact with body fluids. By judicious selection of component materials (ferrule, seal insulator and pin) provides for either compression or match seals for electrical feedthroughs (having a single or multi-pin array) provide corrosion resistance and biocompatibility required in IMDs. The resultant feedthrough configuration accommodates one pin within a single ferrule or at least two pins in a single ferrule having a pin surrounded by insulator material (e.g., alumina ceramic, zirconia ceramic, zirconia silicate ceramic, mullite, each having higher melting points than the sealing glass distributed around the pin within the ferrule, or feldspar porcelain materials or alumino-silicate glasses having a lower melting point than the sealing glass) distributed around the pin within the ferrule.
摘要:
A batteryless inverter allows for a positive or a negative lead from a photovoltaic array to be attached to a grounding terminal of the inverter. Internally a ground fault voltage is rectified and processed to produce a signal that will shut down the inverter. This signal will be the same whether the ground fault voltage is positive, negative, or AC.

An integrated circuit current sensor includes a lead frame having at least two leads coupled to provide a current conductor portion, and a substrate having a first surface in which is disposed one or more magnetic field sensing elements, with the first surface being proximate to the current conductor portion and a second surface distal from the current conductor portion. In one particular embodiment, the substrate is disposed having the first surface of the substrate above the current conductor portion and the second surface of the substrate above the first surface. In this particular embodiment, the substrate is oriented upside-down in the integrated circuit in a flip-chap arrangement. The current sensor can also include an electromagnetic shield disposed between the current conductor portion and the magnetic field sensing elements.
