20100097856FLASH MEMORY AND ASSOCIATED METHODS - In a method of operation, a flash memory cell coupled to a bit-line is programmed, a word-line voltage is coupled to the flash memory cell, a first voltage pulse is coupled to a bias transistor coupled between the bit-line and a sense capacitance at a first time to couple the bit-line to the sense capacitance to generate data to indicate the state of the flash memory cell, a second voltage pulse is coupled to the bias transistor at a second time having a second magnitude that is different from a first magnitude of the first voltage pulse, and a third voltage pulse is coupled to the bias transistor at a third time having a third magnitude that is different from the second magnitude of the second voltage pulse. In a method of operation, the second voltage pulse occurs a first delay period after the first voltage pulse and the third voltage pulse occurs a second delay period after the second voltage pulse, the second delay period being different from the first delay period.04-22-2010

20110170359WORD LINE VOLTAGE BOOST SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NON-VOLATILE MEMORY DEVICES AND MEMORY DEVICES AND PROCESSOR-BASED SYSTEM USING SAME - The voltage of a selected word line is increased beyond the voltage to which a respective string driver transistor is capable of driving the word line by capacitively coupling a voltage to the selected word line from adjacent word lines. The voltage is capacitively coupled to the selected word line by increasing the voltages of the adjacent word lines after a programming voltage has been applied to a string driver transistor for the selected word line and after a string driver voltage has been applied to the gates of all of the string driver transistors in an array.07-14-2011

20090111744Human Growth Gene and Short Stature Gene Region - Subject of the present invention is an isolated human nucleic acid molecule encoding polypeptides containing a homeobox domain of sixty amino acids having the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and having regulating activity on human growth. Three novel genes residing within the about 500 kb short stature critical region on the X and Y chromosome were identified. At least one of these genes is responsible for the short stature phenotype. The cDNA corresponding to this gene may be used in diagnostic tools, and to further characterize the molecular basis for the short stature-phenotype. In addition, the identification of the gene product of the gene provides new means and methods for the development of superior therapies for short stature.04-30-2009

20100108161Pressure Regulator - A fluid pressure regulator includes a regulation chamber arrangement in which a piston is received, in the regulation chamber arrangement, a first chamber and a second chamber being defined by opposite parts of the piston. The first chamber and the second chamber include respectively a first inlet and a second inlet for the fluid, the first inlet and the second inlet being connected to a first environment at a first pressure. The first chamber and the second chamber include respectively a first outlet and a second outlet for the fluid, the first outlet and the second outlet being connected to a second environment at a second pressure. The piston is movable in the regulation chamber arrangement in response to a variation of pressure of the fluid in the first chamber to open/close the second outlet to regulate the second pressure. The fluid pressure regulator includes a valve device to open/close the first outlet to induce the pressure variation in the first chamber.05-06-2010
