    摘要: The gain of the ion detector of a mass spectrometer is calibrated by using the ion detector to measure a ratio of the abundances of at least two ion species having a known abundance ratio. The gain of the ion detector is changed until the measured abundance ratio matches the known abundance ratio.

    摘要: Optical scanner system approaches are described in which novel focusing approaches are provided. A control algorithm accounts for geometric variation of successive scans in opposite directions across a microarray slide or substrate in order to provide optimized focus. The feedback approach taught may involve PI or PID terms. In either type of control approach, a projected slope of the slide is calculated and followed back and forth outside a scan region of the array in exiting and entering fully adaptive focusing zones, respectively. During turn-around, the system may track a setpoint between the periods of following the extrapolated slope. Also provided are methods of using the subject system in a biopolymer array based application, including genomic and proteomic applications.

    摘要: System for large dynamic range light detection. In one aspect, the system includes a hybrid counting/integrating system for processing a signal from a photomultiplier tube. In another aspect, large dynamic range is achieved in a cascaded detector system utilizing at least one asymmetric beam splitter for delivering a larger fraction of incident light to one photomultiplier tube and for delivering a smaller fraction of the incident light to another photomultiplier tube.

    摘要: A design method for an asynchronous sequential circuit that employs synchronous design techniques wherein a synchronous sequential circuit is designed to perform a desired function. A terminating state for the synchronous sequential circuit is then defined wherein the terminating state occurs before a transition to an idle state in the synchronous sequential circuit. A circuit is provided for latching at least one asynchronous input for the asynchronous sequential circuit and a circuit is provided for generating a synchronous clock that drives the synchronous sequential circuit such that the synchronous clock is enabled by a latched asynchronous input and is disabled by the terminating state of the synchronous sequential circuit.

    摘要: One particular implementation conforming to aspects of the present invention takes the form of a method for detecting the end of life of a battery for an electronic device. The method may include calculating the voltage of the battery in an unloaded state, holding the sampled unloaded battery voltage, measuring a loaded battery voltage, calculating the difference between the unloaded and loaded battery voltages and amplifying the calculated difference. Other implementations may take the form of a circuit to perform one or more of the operations of the above method. The circuit may include a sample and hold section and a differential amplifier to provide the amplified difference to a microcontroller for analysis. The microcontroller may also provide a warning or indication to the device or to a user of the device when the battery nears the end of life.
