摘要:
A NFC enabled device to couple inductively to the H field of an RF signal and a regulator to regulate a voltage derived from an RF signal inductively coupled to the inductive coupler. The regulator has at least one voltage controlled impedance having a switch on voltage. A regulator controller provides a control voltage to each voltage controlled impedance such as that the control voltage is not less than the switch on voltage of the voltage controlled impedance.

A near field RF communicator has an inductive coupler (10) to enable inductive coupling with a magnetic field of an RF signal. A demodulator (102) extracts modulation from an inductively coupled magnetic field. A power provider (109) provides a first power supply for the communicator independent of any inductively coupled signal while a power deriver derives a second power supply from an RF signal inductively coupled to the antenna. A regulator (206; 1302) regulates a voltage supplied by at least one of the first and second power supplies on the basis of a comparison with a reference voltage. A modulator (M) is provided to modulate an inductively coupled magnetic field with data to be communicated via the inductive coupling. In an example, a regulator controller is provided to prevent operation of the regulator in the event of a magnetic field amplitude below a predetermined level or the presence of modulation.

A demodulator for demodulating a modulated signal has a peak detector (206) with an input (100) coupled to receive the modulated signal and an output (207) to supply a peak detector output signal. The peak detector has a charge storer (314) coupled to the peak detector output so that the peak detector output signal is provided by a voltage across the charge storer (314) and a comparator (313) having a first comparator input coupled to the peak detector input to receive the modulated signal and a second comparator input coupled to the peak detector output to receive the peak detector output signal. The comparator (313) provides a comparison signal representing a comparison between the voltage of the modulated signal and the peak detector output signal. A charging controller (315, 316 and 318) charges the charge storer (314) so as to increase the output voltage when the comparator (313) provides a first signal indicating that the voltage of the modulated signal is higher than the voltage of the peak detector output signal and discharges the charge storer (314) so as to decrease the output voltage when the comparator (313) provides a second signal indicating that the voltage of the modulated signal is lower than the voltage of the peak detector output signal.

The present invention is a cell-free subcloning system utilizing three elements: (1) a donor vector that contains a nucleic acid sequence to be transferred to another vector flanked by a site-specific recombination sequence and one or more optional additional nucleic acid sequences, (2) an acceptor vector that contains a site-specific recombination sequence and one or more optional additional nucleic acid sequences, and (3) a site-specific recombinase that recognizes the site-specific recombination sequences in the donor and acceptor vectors so as to transfer the transfer sequence from the donor to the acceptor vector upon contact of the three elements of the system. Also disclosed are rapid subcloning methods employing the vectors and enzymes disclosed herein and kits for use in such methods.
摘要:
A securing mechanism for holding an exercise weight-disc on the end of the lifting bar while allowing a modicum of rotational movement in the disc as the bar is being manipulated by the exerciser. A sleeve-like collarpiece, having a smooth cylindrical bore which has therein a serrated flange, is fitted over the threaded end of a weight lifting bar that has a longitudinal groove passing through the set of threads. The collarpiece is slid onto the threaded end, and into registry with a weight-disc and thereafter rotated so that its rotatable gasket-surfaced face snubs against the weight-disc by virtue of the serrated flange engaging and working in cooperation with the bar threading.A novel ball-bearing/race, inserted in the collarpiece face, and to which the gasket is affixed, provides a rotatably movable base which will allow the weight-disc(s) to undergo a somewhat constrained rotation as the bar is twisted during lifting exercises.
