| 20080318055 | RECOVERABLE ELECTRONIC COMPONENT - An electronic component includes a base insulative layer having a first surface and a second surface; an electronic device having a first surface and a second surface, and the electronic device being secured to the base insulative layer; an adhesive layer disposed between the first surface of the electronic device and the second surface of the base insulative layer; and a removable layer disposed between the first surface of the electronic device and the second surface of the base insulative layer. The base insulative layer secures to the electronic device through the removable layer. The removable layer is capable of releasing the base insulative layer from the electronic device. The removal may be done without damage to a predetermined part of the electronic component. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20080318413 | METHOD FOR MAKING AN INTERCONNECT STRUCTURE AND INTERCONNECT COMPONENT RECOVERY PROCESS - A method is provided for making an interconnect structure. The method includes applying a removable layer to an electronic device or to a base insulative layer; applying an adhesive layer to the electronic device or to the base insulative layer; and securing the electronic device to the base insulative layer using the adhesive layer. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20100077830 | ELECTRONIC SELF-CALIBRATION FOR SENSOR CLEARANCE - Self-calibration of a multiple channel clearance sensor system, which in one embodiment includes at least one sensor for measuring at least one clearance parameter signal between a stationary object and a rotating object of a rotating machine. The sensor output is processed as a clearance parameter by an offset correction section configured to determine an offset error in the clearance parameter signal which is used by a level shifter. The level shifter is also switchably coupled to the clearance parameter signal wherein the output of the level shifter, which may be amplified and digitally converted, is processed by a signal level analyzer to determine a channel gain signal. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100188100 | AUTOMATED SENSOR SPECIFIC CALIBRATION THROUGH SENSOR PARAMETER DOWNLOAD - A sensor system for measuring a clearance parameter between a stationary component and a rotating component of a rotating machine is provided. The system includes a clearance sensor to output a clearance measurement signal. A sensor memory is attached to the sensor for storing a first sensor information. A second sensor information is stored in a electronics interface memory. The first and the second sensor information are read and the clearance sensor is matched with a respective plurality of calibration data by an electronic interface based on the first and the second sensor information. | 07-29-2010 |
| 20100191502 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CLEARANCE ESTIMATION BETWEEN TWO OBJECTS - A processing system for clearance estimation in a rotating machine includes one or more sensors and one or more digital signal processors for calculating the estimated clearance. The processing system may include techniques for obtaining real-time clearance estimates and techniques for obtaining averaged clearance estimates. Aspects of the processing system may also include a method of switching between real-time clearance estimates and averaged clearance estimates depending on the operating conditions of the rotating machine. Other aspects of the processing system include the use of two digital signal processors: a first digital signal processor configured to receive signals from a clearance sensor and perform a first set of high speed processing tasks, and a second digital signal processor configured to receive signals from the first digital signal processor and perform a second set of lower speed processing tasks. | 07-29-2010 |
