摘要:
A paperstock card (201) is integrally combined (102) with each of a printed dynamic display (203), a printed display control circuit (202), and a printed power source (204). So configured, the paperstock card can offer, in a relatively economical and flexible manner, textual and/or image-based content of choice. In addition, by this approach, some or all of this content can comprise animated content. By one approach, for example, this could even comprise video content depicting the person who presents the paperstock card to a given recipient.
摘要:
An organic semiconductor inverting circuit includes at least three organic transistors, an output terminal (110, 210, 310, 410), a reference supply voltage input (115, 215, 315, 415), a first positive supply voltage input (120, 220, 320, 420), and a negative supply voltage input (125, 225, 325, 425). One of the three organic transistors is an input transistor having a gate to which is coupled an input terminal (105, 205, 305, 405). The output terminal (110, 210, 310, 410) is coupled to a first electrode of at least one of the at least three organic transistors.
摘要:
An object (201) (such as a containment mechanism) supports both a functional electrical circuit (203) and an electrical circuit (202) to which the functional electrical circuit is responsive. In a preferred approach the functional electrical circuit has both a low power state of operation and a higher power state of operation. Upon detecting (104) that an area of connectivity of the electrical circuit has been severed (via, for example, corresponding manipulation of the object itself), the functional electrical circuit responsively operates (106) using the higher power state of operation.
摘要:
Two or more semiconductor devices (21 and 22) are formed on a substrate (20) and are each comprised of a plurality of printed components (23 and 24). At least one such printed component (25) is shared by both such semiconductor devices.
