    摘要: An integrated circuit which includes a first transistor device portion having an N+ doped region drain terminal in an N- well in a P- substrate, an N+ doped region source terminal in the P- substrate, and a gate separated from the source and drain regions by a layer of silicon dioxide; and a second transistor device portion including an N+ doped region drain terminal in the P- substrate, an N+ doped region source terminal in the P- substrate, and a gate separated from the source and drain regions by a layer of silicon dioxide; conductive means connecting the drain region of the first transistor device portion to a node to be discharged, a conductor connecting the gate of the first transistor device portion to a source of biasing potential equal to the source voltage used in a low voltage process, another conductor connecting the source of the second transistor device portion to a source of ground potential; and a third conductor for providing a source of positive input potential to the gate terminal of the second transistor device portion. The enabling of the second transistor device portion enables the first transistor device portion and discharges the node without causing breakdown of the silicon dioxide layers or any junction of the first and the second transistor device portions because the large N well distributes the high voltage over a number of junctions so that no junction sees a breakdown voltage.

    摘要: The instant invention encompasses the combination of a modified electric guitar component coupled with a plurality of equivalent one-coil and equivalent two-coil transducer cradle components attached thereto upon which cradles, transducers are permanently mounted respectively. The transducer cradle components are readily amenable to detachment from and reattachment to the body of the electric guitar component and as well to speedy frontwise insertion into or frontwise removal from the modification of the electric guitar component, to wit, appropriately contoured openings in the front of the body of the electric guitar component below the level of intact guitar strings. Metallic contact rods on each cradle component receive transducer wiring emanating from a permanently mounted transducer and contact, upon insertion of a given cradle into a given opening, by way of contact points in the front wall of the opening, the internal wiring within the modified electric guitar component and ultimately, an amplifier.

    摘要: A programmable logic device is described. The programmable logic device includes a plurality of memory cells, each having a drain, a source, a floating gate, and a control gate. A first bit line is coupled the drain of each of the plurality memory cells. The bit line provides a voltage level. A second bit line is coupled to the source of each of the plurality of memory cells. The programmable logic device further includes means for controlling the voltage level to swing between a first voltage state and a second voltage state. The controlling means receives current from the first bit line to clamp the voltage level to the first voltage state when the voltage level exceeds the first voltage state. The controlling means provides current to the first bit line and limits current flow of the first bit line to maintain the voltage level to the second voltage state when the voltage level exceeds below the second voltage state.
