Abstract:
A blood pump (20) includes a stator assembly comprising a motor stator (52), a fluid inlet (24), and a fluid outlet (26). A rotor assembly includes a motor rotor (54) and an impeller (40) rotatable about an axis (44) to move fluid from the inlet (24) to the outlet (26). An outflow sheath (300) directs the flow along the outside of the pump (20).
Abstract:
A blood pump (26) includes a stator assembly (122) that includes a motor stator, a fluid inlet (24), and a fluid outlet (26). A rotor assembly (120) includes a motor rotor (54) and an impeller (40) rotatable about an axis (44) to move fluid from the inlet (24) to the outlet (26). A permanent magnet radial bearing (100) supports the rotor assembly for rotation about the axis (44). The radial bearing (100) includes a permanent magnet radial bearing stator (106) fixed to the stator assembly (122) and a permanent magnet radial bearing rotor (108) fixed to the rotor assembly (120). The radial bearing (100) is configured such that the radial bearing stator magnets (106) and the radial bearing rotor magnets (108) are axially offset from each other when the pump is at rest.

Abstract:
A circuit chip has an apparatus for an electrically conductive connection of a terminal thereof to an external reference potential. The apparatus has a parallel connection of a bonding wire and a semiconductor area formed in a substrate of the circuit chip. The semiconductor area is doped higher than the substrate of the circuit chip.
Abstract:
A method is described that involves locking a capacity demand profile of a resource for the use of a transaction. The method also involves obtaining a portion of the locked capacity demand profile. The portion describes the capacity demand profile over a time interval in which a locked out transaction desired to implement a change to the capacity demand profile prior to the locking. The method involves implementing the change to the portion to form a changed portion. The method also involves, after the implementing, implementing a second change to the changed portion. The second change is desired by the transaction.
Abstract:
An additional control voltage is used to adjust then operating point of a power amplifier. The amplitude of the control voltage is a measure of the maximum gain needed during the current time slot and which is already provided to the power amplifier before the beginning of the active time slot. This enables an individual adjustment of the operating point so that the power consumption can be reduced.

Abstract:
A controllable LC oscillator circuit has a resonant circuit including an inductance and a capacitance disposed in parallel. The oscillator is driven by an amplifier and the inductance is produced using coupled coils. The effective inductance of the coupled coils can be set by changing a gain of the amplifier, and a magnitude of the coupling factor of the coupled coils defines a magnitude of an adjustable frequency band of the oscillator.
Abstract:
In a circuit for determining and storing an average signal value, an overlaid dc voltage part is identified and subtracted from the actual signal. To this end, an all-pass filter with which both a transfer response is optimized and the error is minimized is utilized in a signal processing means in addition to a low-pass filter.
