摘要:
An electrical interconnect for a solid-oxide fuel cell stack assembly, including a novel sintering paste and an improved manufacturing process for an anode and cathode electrical contacts is disclosed. On the anode side, the paste contains a metallic oxide such as NiO, and an amount of sacrificial pore-forming particles, such as carbon particles or polymer spheres, which are vaporized during sintering of the paste, resulting in a very porous connection having good electrical conductivity and good adhesion. A preferred level of pore-former in the paste is about 40 volume percent. On the cathode side, the paste contains a noble metal such as for example, gold, platinum, palladium or rhodium, and an amount of the sacrificial pore-forming particles. The paste may be applied to the surfaces in a grid pattern or, because the resulting contact is porous after sintering, it may be applied as a continuous layer.

An electronic device includes a storage slot for storing context information for a storage device. The electronic device is configured to apply settings related to the context information to the storage device upon detecting connection of the storage device to the electronic device. A method of operating the electronic device may include acquiring context information from the storage device, storing the context information within a storage slot of the electronic device, and applying settings to the storage device. The settings may be related to the context information and may be applied upon detecting a reconnection of the storage device to the electronic device.

An electronic device includes display control logic for adjusting video settings of the electronic device in order to improve the display of portable media player files on the electronic device. The video settings may include picture settings for a display subsystem of the electronic device, video processing methods stored within a processor of the electronic device, and expansion ratios for images received from the portable media player. A method of operating the electronic device may include acquiring media file data, such as the expansion ratio and file type, from the portable media player and using the data to determine the video settings.
摘要:
An exemplary method of processing video content is provided which allows for adjusting the resolution, bitrate, or other target display characteristic of the video content based on information collected from an electronic device, such as a display device or intermediary electronic component. The exemplary method includes the steps of collecting information from an electronic device, determining a target display characteristic based on the collected information, adjusting the video content based on the target display characteristic, and transmitting the adjusted video content to the electronic device. The collected information may include the viewing distance of a user from a display device, the display area or native resolution of the display device, values from a menu option on the display device, and so forth.
摘要:
An electronic device includes a first input for receiving a portable media player and is configured to receive data from the portable media player while the first input is selected. The device also includes an input device configured to send a control signal that cyclically selects each of a plurality of inputs. A method of using the device to access the portable media player may include receiving a control signal that designates a first input and selecting the first input from a plurality of inputs in response to the control signal.
