摘要:
Chlorogenic acid can be separated and produced as free acid or as salts thereof from plant raw material extracts by means of gel permeation chromatography on cross-linked modified polysaccharides, especially on dextrans. To obtain the free acid, the aqueous extract must be adjusted to a pH in the range of about 2 to 2.8. By use of a column of sufficient length the isomeric 5-, 4- and 3-chlorogenic acid can also be separated by the process of the invention.
摘要:
Roasted coffee with an increased chlorogenic acid content of more than 2.8% by weight or instant coffee powder with an increased chlorogenic acid content of more than 8.5% by weight have a better compatibility. The increased chlorogenic acid content is achieved either by adding chlorogenic acid or by extracting raw coffee and adding the optionally concentrated extract to the roasted coffee.
摘要:
A method of forming conductive structures on the contact pads of a substrate, such as a semiconductor die or a printed circuit board. A solder mask is secured to an active surface of the substrate. Apertures through the solder mask are aligned with contact pads on the substrate. The apertures may be preformed or formed after a layer of the material of which the solder mask is comprised has been disposed on the substrate. Conductive material is disposed in and shaped by the apertures of the solder mask to form conductive structures in communication with the contact pads exposed to the apertures. Sides of the conductive structures are exposed through the solder mask, either by removing the solder mask from the substrate or by reducing the thickness of the solder mask. The present invention also includes semiconductor devices formed during different stages of the method of the present invention.

Apparatus and methods for placing conductive spheres on prefluxed bond pads of a substrate using a stencil plate with a pattern of through-holes positioned over the bond pads. Conductive spheres are placed in the through-holes by a moving feed mechanism and the spheres drop through the through-holes onto the bond pads. In one embodiment, the feed mechanism is a sphere hopper which crosses the entire through-hole pattern. In another embodiment, a shuttle plate fed spheres from a reservoir and reversibly moves about one-half of the pitch, moving from a non-discharge position to a discharge position.
摘要:
A method to produce near-optimal routes for the flow of data between clusters in a distributed data communications network. A backbone traffic matrix and a backbone topology at the cluster level are used to produce minimum hop routes, minimum delay routes, or routes which maximize throughput. The inputs of the system are the number of requirements, the number of backbone links, and the number of backbone nodes.

Both a relative positioned resource and an absolute positioned resource may be generated using a single editor having a single syntax for both the relative and absolute positioned elements. A layout module generates an intermediate data structure based on element information. The element information includes content of at least one element, Cartesian coordinates of the at least one element, and dimensional information of the at least one element. A unified processing module generates a first resource having absolute positioned elements by processing the intermediate data structure, and generates a second resource having relative positioned elements by processing the same intermediate data structure.

An anti-jackknifing device adapted for engagement between a tractor having a fifth wheel engaged with a trailer. The device features a pair of catch arms rotationally engaged to a mount with the tractor. The distal ends of the catch arms move between an engaged position in a horizontal path between two trailer mounted engaging components adapted to engage the distal end and a disengaged position out of the path. The distal ends of the catch arms may be pivotally mounted. The distal ends of the catch arms and the engaging components may also be shaped to cooperatively engage on contact. A control causes the catch arms to rotate thereby engaging the distal ends of the arms between the engaging components either automatically above a threshold speed or manually. This engagement limits the angle of the trailer to the tractor to a predetermined angle when trailer rotates on the fifth wheel causing the engaging components to contact the distal ends of the catch arms.
摘要:
A method and system for forming contacts on semiconductor components, such as wafers, dice and packages, are provided. The method employs magnets to align and hold ferromagnetic balls on bonding sites of a component substrate. The system includes a holder for holding the component substrate, and magnets on the holder aligned with bonding sites on the component. The system also includes a ball placement mechanism for placing the ferromagnetic balls on the bonding sites, and a bonding mechanism, such as an oven, or a focused energy source, for bonding the ferromagnetic balls to the bonding sites. The ferromagnetic balls can be provided as a ferromagnetic core having an outer solder layer, as a solid ferromagnetic material with a conductive adhesive outer layer, or as ferromagnetic particles embedded in a bondable matrix material. An alternate embodiment system includes a focused magnetic source for dynamically aligning the ferromagnetic balls to the bonding sites.

According to an example embodiment of the invention, a method is provided for measuring a vibratory response of a plurality of turbine blades. The method can include mounting an optical probe comprising at least one probe tip optical surface, wherein the at least one probe tip optical surface is substantially parallel to within about +15 or about −15 degrees with respect to a trailing edge surface of at least one of the plurality of turbine blades, directing light towards a trailing edge surface of at least one of the plurality of turbine blades, receiving reflected light from the at least one of the plurality of turbine blades, and determining relative position of the at least one of the plurality of blades based at least in part on the reflected light.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for increasing integrated circuit density comprising an upper die and a lower die, the latter preferably a flip chip, which are connected to a conductor-carrying substrate or a leadframe. The upper die is attached back-to-back to the lower die with a layer of adhesive applied over the back side of the lower die. Bond wires or TAB leads are attached between bond pads on the upper die and corresponding conductive trace or lead ends on the substrate. The upper die may be smaller than the lower die such that a small discrete component such as a resistor, capacitor, or the like can be attached to the adhesive not covered by the upper die. Bond wires can be attached between the upper die and the component, as well as between the component and the substrate. One or more additional die may be stacked on the upper die and electrically connected to the substrate. Furthermore, multiple lower dice can be arranged on the substrate to support upper dice bridged between the lower dice.
