摘要:
An output buffer provided according to an aspect of the present invention is designed to generate an output signal with a slew rate that is substantially independent of the threshold voltage of transistors contained within. An output buffer provided according to another aspect of the present invention provides output signals with different slew rates depending on the magnitude of the load capacitance at the output node of the output buffer.

摘要:
A method for preparing microcapsules which comprises:dispersing a hydrophobic oily liquid containing a pre-wall former in a continuous aqueous phase, the aqueous phase containing a chain extender which comprises a water soluble polyfunctional compound capable of reacting with the pre-wall former upon dispersion of the hydrophobic oily liquid in the continuous aqueous phase; andforming capsule walls around the droplets of the hydrophobic oily liquid in the continuous aqueous phase.
摘要:
An protein-polysaccharide macromolecular complex article of manufacture containing encapsulated ethyl alcohol and/or other spirits serving as an entertaining and novel non-beverage method of consuming alcohol. The article of manufacture encapsulates ethyl alcohol and/or other spirits in the amorphous regions of the complex macromolecular structure releasing it only upon chewing and exposure to the environment of the oral cavity. The article of manufacture is stable and capable of retaining shape and form for extended periods of time at ambient temperature allowing for relatively low-cost commercial manufacture and distribution.
摘要:
Enzymatic cross-linking of protein-encapsulated oil particles by complex coacervation. A complex coacervate of oil particles, each encapsulated in a protein shell, is stabilized by gelling the protein shell and is subsequently enzymatically cross-linked to form thermostable capsules of about 100-300 microns. The preferred enzyme is transglutaminase, and the reaction is performed at pH 7 to achieve the optimal cross-linking rate. The transglutaminase-catalyzed cross-linking reaction takes place with the complex coacervate maintained at a temperature in the range of about 5.degree. C.-10.degree. C. to maintain the structural stability of the complex coacervate.
摘要:
A consumable macromolecular article of manufacture formed by the complexation of protein and polysaccharide polymers stabilized by chemical or physical crosslinking and subsequently cast and molded into macrocapsules of at least 1 mm in diameter. The resulting macrocapsules are a highly versatile delivery product capable of encapsulating and stably retaining a wide range of active ingredients, both liquids and solids, in the amorphous regions of the complexed and crosslinked macromolecular structure, and releasing such active ingredients only upon chewing and/or upon exposure to the digestive environment. Dissimilar layers may be utilized to combine multiple active ingredients and/or control the active ingredient release profiles. The article of manufacture is thermally stable and structurally robust providing relatively low-cost commercial manufacture and distribution and exhibiting a texture and consistency that is organolepically pleasing.
