20110204148DEVICE HAVING DATA STORAGE - The present invention relates to the field of devices which store data for a period of time. In one form, the invention relates to devices which store data in which the data store is subject to periodic and/or relatively short power outages. In one example, the invention relates to a radio frequency identification (“RFID”) transponder, and more particularly to a RFID transponder that is used in orientation independent applications. Other applications of the present invention are to devices used where supply power is intermittent. In a first aspect of embodiments described herein there is provided a.method of and/or device comprising a memory adapted to store data, a supply of power adapted to provide supply power to the memory, a path of leakage, the leakage path serving, over time, to diminish the integrity of data stored in the memory, and a leakage attenuator adapted to selectively attenuate the rate of leakage.08-25-2011

20100185422STOCHASTIC INVERSION OF GEOPHYSICAL DATA FOR ESTIMATING EARTH MODEL PARAMETERS - A computer implemented stochastic inversion method for estimating model parameters of an earth model. In an embodiment, the method utilizes a sampling-based stochastic technique to determine the probability density functions (PDF) of the model parameters that define a boundary-based multi-dimensional model of the subsurface. In some embodiments a sampling technique known as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is utilized. MCMC techniques fall into the class of “importance sampling” techniques, in which the posterior probability distribution is sampled in proportion to the model's ability to fit or match the specified acquisition geometry. In another embodiment, the inversion includes the joint inversion of multiple geophysical data sets. Embodiments of the invention also relate to a computer system configured to perform a method for estimating model parameters for accurate interpretation of the earth's subsurface.07-22-2010

20090315612Switch driver with low impedance initial drive and higher impedance final drive - A driver circuit (for example, in a switching power supply or in a Class-D switching amplifier) drives a gate of a switch during a transition with a low output impedance during an initial period and then for the remainder of the transition drives the gate with a midrange output impedance. The switch in turn switches current flow through an inductor. The driver circuit includes a “Drive Node Voltage Dependent Impedance Circuit” (DNVDIC) that couples the gate to a supply voltage node. In one embodiment, there are two resistive current paths through the DNVDIC. A non-linear device in the first current path switches from having a small to a large impedance when a voltage drop across the device falls below a threshold voltage. The resulting increase in impedance of the first current path decreases voltage edge rates and reduces noise, whereas the low initial impedance reduces transition power losses.12-24-2009

20080214680Application of arsenic as a cancer prevention agent - Arsenic in drinking water at levels between 25 and <75 μg/L is cancer protective, compared to levels between 0 and <25 μg/L and levels at or above 75 μg/L. Methods are presented to decrease the cancer rate or not increase the cancer rate, for specific cancers and for cancers in general, based on this observation.09-04-2008

20080215278Method and system of calibrating sensing components in a circuit breaker system - A method and system to calibrate a motor circuit protection device is disclosed. An example method calibrates a signal chain of a circuit breaker. The signal chain includes a current transformer, a burden resistor, a stored energy circuit and a controller. The circuit breaker includes a memory coupled to the controller. A calibration instruction routine is written in a first location of the memory. A test current is injected in the circuit breaker signal chain. The test current peak of the test current in the circuit breaker signal chain is measured. Data indicative of the test current peak is stored in a second location of the memory. The test current peak data is read from the second location of the memory. The test current peak data is compared with nominal current data related to the signal chain remotely from the circuit breaker. A calibration factor is determined based on the comparison.09-04-2008

20100022987MEDICATION DELIVERY SYSTEM - A medication delivery system includes an array of cartridge-receiving ports, a medication receiving fluid conduit, and a plurality of dispensing elements. Each port includes a fluid channel terminating at a fluid outlet and is configured to receive one of a plurality of cartridges that each contain a bolus volume of medication. The medication-receiving fluid conduit is fluidically coupled to the fluid outlet of each cartridge-receiving port at a first region and to a system outlet conduit at a second region (which in turn can be coupled to a patient catheter line). Each dispensing element corresponds to a single cartridge-receiving port so that, upon activation of the dispensing element, at least a portion of the bolus volume of medication flows through the fluid outlet of each cartridge-receiving port into the medication-receiving fluid conduit. Related apparatus, systems, and methods are also disclosed.01-28-2010
