The invention disclosed herein provides increased effectiveness of delay and transition fault testing. The method of delay fault testing integrated circuits comprises the steps of creating a plurality of test clock gating groups. The plurality of test clock gating groups comprising elements defining inter-element signal paths within the integrated circuit. Each of the elements of the plurality of test clock gating groups share clock frequency and additional shared characteristics. At least one test signal is commonly and selectively connected through at least one low-speed gate transistor to each of the elements comprising each of the plurality of test clock gating groups based on membership in the test clock gating group. This invention can also be practiced using scan-enable gating groups for the same purposes.

An improved Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) system is provided. The system advantageously employs full waveform digitization of a returning signal to significantly reduce the number of launch signals and allowing the amount of radiation emitted to stay within the limit set by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), while producing a robust information detection signal. In addition, intermittent large latent-duty-cycle sampling employs a less expensive digitizer typically used in prior art GPRs. The system is scalable at low-cost to accommodate multi-antenna multi-static testing for subsurface tomographic imaging.

A method and device for delivering medicament such as for ameliorating pain in a patient from an injector superiorly and/or laterally and/or anteriorly towards the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG). A device for delivering a medicament to a patient in need thereof includes (a) an injector containing a first end configured to remain outside a nasal passage of the patient and a second end configured for entry into the nasal passage of the patient; and (b) an introducer configured for engagement with a nostril of the patient and containing a passageway configured for slidably receiving the injector. The injector is moveable between a storage position preceding the engagement and an engaging position pursuant to the engagement. The device may further include a locking connection assembly that is useful in other devices.

A method for delivering medicament such as for ameliorating pain in a patient includes introducing an injector through a nasal passage of the patient into a region substantially medial and/or posterior and/or inferior to a sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) of the patient; and delivering a medicament from the injector superiorly and/or laterally and/or anteriorly towards the SPG. A device for delivering a medicament to a patient in need thereof includes (a) an injector containing a first end configured to remain outside a nasal passage of the patient and a second end configured for entry into the nasal passage of the patient; and (b) an introducer configured for engagement with a nostril of the patient and containing a passageway configured for slidably receiving the injector.

A nanodevice has a containment vessel defining a storage chamber therein and defining at least one port to provide access to and from said storage chamber, and a stopper assembly attached to the containment vessel. The stopper assembly has a blocking unit arranged proximate the at least one port and has a structure suitable to substantially prevent material after being loaded into the storage chamber from being released while the blocking unit is arranged in a blocking configuration. The stopper assembly is responsive to the presence of a predetermined stimulus such that the blocking unit is released in the presence of the predetermined stimulus to allow the material to be released from the storage chamber. The predetermined stimulus is a predetermined catalytic activity that is suitable to at least one of cleave, hydrolyze, oxidize, or reduce a portion of the stopper assembly, and the nanodevice has a maximum dimension of about 1 μm.

Disclosed are design structures for current sink and source circuits, a charge pump, and a phase locked loop. The current sink and source circuits each have a current mirror that biases a transistor connected to an output node. These circuits each further have a two-stage feedback amplifier to sense the current mirror drain voltage and to control the transistor gate voltage in order to stabilize the current mirror drain voltage independent of output voltage at the output node. The amplifier also increases output resistance at the output node. This configuration allows for a wide operation voltage range and ensures good circuit performance under a very low power supply. A charge pump that incorporates these circuits generates highly matched charging and discharging currents. A PLL that incorporates this charge pump exhibits minimal bandwidth shifts and minimal locking speed and jitter performance degradation.

Described herein is a method for treating a central nervous system disorder, said method comprising steps of first transnasally administering to or immediately adjacent the sphenopalatine ganglion a first pharmaceutical agent that effectively enhances permeability of the blood-brain barrier; and thereafter administering a second pharmaceutical agent with known efficacious value for action upon central nervous system tissue. The central nervous system disorder may be related directly to the brain or to other central nervous system tissues and cells.
