20130111922 | FLEXIBLE PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD HARNESS - A gas turbine engine installation is provided that has a flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) harness to transfer electrical signals, including electrical power, around a gas turbine engine. The FPCB harness is held to the gas turbine engine installation using clips. The clips have a jaw that has two sets of opposing teeth extending from a base, and a mouth through which the FPCB harness is inserted. The teeth point in a direction that has a component from the mouth to the teeth. This means that the force required to insert the FPCB harness into the clip is lower than the force required to pull the FPCB harness out of the clip in the opposite direction. This means that the FPCB harness can be secured in place whilst aiding ease of assembly. | 05-09-2013 |

20100123444 | ACCELERATED RESPONSE TO LOAD TRANSIENTS IN PFM DC-TO-DC CONVERTERS - A pulse generator circuit in a DC-to-DC converter may be configured to generate pulses that have a frequency that increases in response to increases in the load on the DC-to-DC converter. The pulse generator circuit may be configured to cause each pulse to have a constant width. When the pulse reaches the end of the constant width and the magnitude of the current through an inductance in the converter is less than a threshold value, however, the pulse generator may be configured to extend the pulse until the magnitude of the current through the inductance reaches the threshold value. The pulse generator circuit may be configured to prematurely terminate each pulse if and at such time as the load voltage exceeds a target value by approximately half of the peak-to-peak voltage of the ripple component plus the noise component margin. | 05-20-2010 |
