20090033467RF IDENTIFICATION DEVICE WITH NEAR-FIELD-COUPLED ANTENNA - An embodiment of a RF identification device is formed by a tag and by a reader. The tag is formed by a processing circuit and a first antenna, which has the function both of transmitting and of receiving data. The reader is formed by a control circuit and by a second antenna, which has the function both of transmitting and of receiving data. The processing circuit is formed by a resonance capacitor, a modulator, a rectifier circuit, a charge-pump circuit and a detection circuit. The antenna of the tag and the processing circuit are integrated in a single structure in completely monolithic form. The first antenna has terminals connected to the input of the rectifier circuit, the output of which is connected to the charge-pump circuit. The charge-pump circuit has an output connected to the detection circuit.02-05-2009

20100189875USE OF WHOLE GRAIN MATERIALS WITH HIGH RESISTANT STARCH FOR SATIETY, REDUCTION OF FOOD INTAKE AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT - This invention relates to the use of whole grain products high in resistant starch content to increase satiety in mammals. The invention further relates to the management of weight by increasing such satiety. The whole grain products may be added to foods, and the enhancement may be achieved while not significantly sacrificing organoleptic quality characteristics of the food, including texture and flavor yet increasing the nutritional value.07-29-2010
20100260904FIBER SATIETY COMPOSITIONS - Ingestible compositions that include one or more anionic soluble fibers are provided herein. An ingestible composition can be in solid or liquid form. In certain cases, a solid ingestible composition includes an extruded food product, such as a crispy, that includes one or more anionic soluble fibers. Liquid ingestible compositions that can include one or more alginate anionic soluble fibers and one or more pectin anionic soluble fibers are also provided. Methods for making ingestible compositions are provided, as well as methods for using the ingestible compositions, e.g., to induce satiety or to increase the viscosity of stomach contents.10-14-2010

20090295492BIASED VARACTOR NETWORKS AND METHODS TO USE THE SAME - Example biased varactor networks and methods to use the same are disclosed. A disclosed example apparatus includes a bias voltage generator to generate a first bias voltage and a second bias voltage, the second bias voltage selected to be different from the first bias voltage, and a varactor network comprising first and second varactors connected to receive a control voltage, the control voltage configurable to control a capacitance of the varactor network, the capacitance of the varactor network comprising a first capacitance of the first varactor determined by a first difference between the control voltage and the first bias voltage and a second capacitance of the second varactor determined by a second difference between the control voltage and the second bias voltage.12-03-2009

20110267146OPEN LOOP COARSE TUNING FOR A PLL - In many types of wireless applications (like wireless modems), it is important that the phase locked loops (PLLs) be able to synthesize clock frequencies in a wide tuning range. Because of the complexity of many conventional PLLs (which were deigned to cover wide tuning ranges), there was often a significant delay to achieve phase and frequency lock. Here, an open loop calibration system is provided to coarse tune a PLL very rapidly. Generally, this calibration system employs binary searches to coarsely adjust a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) from a VCO bank to within a predetermined range around a target frequency.11-03-2011
