Abstract:
A method for aligning an opto-electronic component in an IC die with an optical port is disclosed. This is achieved, in various embodiments, by forming alignment features in the IC die that can mate with complementary alignment features of the optical port. The formation of alignment features can be performed at the wafer level during fabrication of the IC die. An optical signal carrier may be optically coupled to the optical port such that the signal carrier may communicate optically with the opto-electronic component.

Abstract:
Devices, systems, and methods for non-invasively detecting and monitoring medical conditions using multiple modalities of sensing include at least two electrodes configured to be positioned on a subject, an acoustic sensor configured to be positioned on a subject, a thoracic impedance measurement module connected to the electrodes, for measuring a first impedance between the electrodes, and a heart acoustic measurement module connected to the acoustic sensor, for detecting and measuring a heart sound from the acoustic sensor.
Abstract:
An inductive device may include a pair of half-shell magnetically-conductive housings joined together and defining an enclosed cavity between them. The inductive device may also include primary and secondary windings provided spatially within the cavity providing magnetic coupling between them. The windings may be electrically insulated from each other and terminals of the primary and secondary windings may traverse to an exterior of the inductive device.
