System and method are disclosed for increasing the effectiveness of the lower tubes in a delayed coker furnace. The system and method involve arranging the tubes so that the lower tubes are as close to the heat source as the upper tubes. Such an arrangement allows all the tubes to have substantially the same amount of radiant flux. In some implementations, it is also possible to conform the refractory floor to the arrangement of the tubes.

Two NMOS boost transistors have their sources connected to the high voltage input while their drains and gates are cross-connected. Two coupling capacitors connect two alternate phase clocks to the gates of the two cross-connected boost transistors. An NMOS pass transistor has its gate connected to the drain of one of the NMOS boost transistors, its source connected to the high voltage input, and its drain connected to the output. In an embodiment, two diode-connected regulation transistors connect the gates of the boost transistors to the high voltage input. These connections insure that the gates of the boost transistors and the gate of the pass transistor never reach voltages higher than one threshold voltage above the high voltage input. In another embodiment, two discharge transistors have their drains connected to a decode input, their sources connected to the gates of the boost transistors, and their gates connected to the positive power supply. By setting the decode input at zero volts, the voltages at the gates of the boost transistors and of the pass transistor are held at zero volts, thus disabling them. In the preferred embodiment, both the regulation transistors and the discharge transistors are included in the high voltage pass gate.

A digital decoder is provided that produces true and complementary output signals. The digital decoder may be formed from n-channel and p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor transistors. The digital decoder produces four true outputs and four complementary outputs from two inputs. A first of the true outputs and a first of the complementary outputs are provided using a NOR gate and an inverter. A NAND gate and an inverter are used to provide a second of the true outputs and a second of the complementary outputs. Third and fourth complementary outputs are produced using first and second logic circuits. The first and second logic circuits are powered using only a positive power supply voltage. Third and fourth true outputs are produced using third and fourth logic circuits. The third and fourth logic circuits are powered using only a ground power supply voltage. The logic circuits each include an n-channel and p-channel transistor pair.

A reflector/concentrator for a compact fluorescent lamp includes a concave reflector sized to hold a compact fluorescent lamp and having an opening at one end and a central longitudinal axis passing through the opening. The reflector has an internal reflective surface surrounding the axis and providing multiple focal points substantially along the axis from which light emanating from the compact fluorescent lamp can be reflected by the surface through the opening. There is a lens at or adjacent to the opening through which the reflected light passes.

In one embodiment, a method includes detecting a power level of a power amplifier coupled to a transceiver during a current burst of a radio communication and providing the detected power level from the power amplifier to the transceiver and controlling a power level of the power amplifier during a next burst based on the detected power level of the current burst.

A programmable logic device including a plurality of logic elements organized in an array. Each of the logic elements includes an N-stage Look Up Table structure having 2N configuration bit inputs and a Look Up Table output. The first stage of the Look Up Table includes 2N tri-state buffers coupled to receive the 2N configuration bit inputs respectively. A decoder, configured from logic gates, is coupled to receive to one or more Look Up Table select signals and to generate a set of control signals to control the 2N tri-state buffers so that one or more of the 2N configuration bit inputs is selected by the first stage. The configuration bits are then provided to subsequent muxing stages in the Look Up Table.

A multi-function modular storage light unit including a primary housing unit and detachable modules such as a radio and an auxiliary flashlight. The primary housing unit contains a spotlight, a power switch, and a handle to carry the unit. There is also a storage compartment built into the primary housing unit. The modules preferably include belt clips for hands-free transport. The modules are removably attached to the primary unit by way of an attachment mechanism which may include alignment features and a latching mechanism. The modules may alternatively be removably attached by their belt clips to sleeves arranged on the primary housing. Each of the detachable modules and the spotlight is independently powered.

In the programming of a non-volatile memory device, such as a NAND flash memory device 100, a positive bias voltage V.sub.bias is applied to a bit line 44 to set a respective memory gate 44a in a programmed state. In a further embodiment, the positive bias voltage V.sub.bias is obtained by dividing the select drain gate voltage V.sub.cc using two resistors 56 and 58 connected in series.
