摘要:
Junction field effect transistors (JFETs) can be fabricated with an epitaxial layer that forms a sufficiently thick channel region to enable the JFET for use in high voltage applications (e.g., having a breakdown voltage greater than about 20V). Additionally or alternatively, threshold voltage (VT) implants can be introduced at one or more of the gate, source and drain regions to improve noise performance of the JFET. Additionally, fabrication of such a JFET can be facilitated forming the entire JFET structure concurrently with a CMOS fabrication process and/or with a BiCMOS fabrication process.
摘要:
A non-volatile memory device comprising logic for charge restoration. The restore logic controls a read circuit for determining a value associated with the threshold voltage of a memory cell selected from a memory cell array, and compares the value to one or more boundary values to determine whether or not the memory cell value is out of bounds. In the event that the memory cell value is out of bounds, a target value for the memory cell is established. The restore logic controls a write circuit that applies a write pulse to the memory cell. The read and write process is repeated as necessary until the target value for the memory cell is achieved. The restore logic may include a processor for performing a statistical analysis on the memory cell array in order to determine target restoration values. Memory cells within the array may be reserved for use by the restore logic.

Overexpression of prolyl endopeptidase (PEP) activity in the brain was found to be linked with neurodegenerative disorders, and the memory loss caused by amnesic compounds can be restored by PEP inhibitors. In the current intervention, the PEP inhibitory activity of trans-anethole ((E)-1-Methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)benzene), an essential oil that is naturally occurring in Illicium verum (star anise) has been assessed. More specifically, the present invention relates to finding of a potent inhibitor of prolyl endopeptidase (Trans-Anethole ((E)-1-Methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)benzene).
摘要:
A method for implementing an automated assistant on one or more computing devices with a processor, a memory, and systems to receive an input at a computing device and parsing that input using a pragmatic natural language processor. A score is assigned to the input and a user intent is determined based on the assigned score. A user may search for a service or item and the system may generate a ranking of the item based on a number of attributes.

Embodiments contemplate one or more techniques for packet filtering. One or more embodiments may apply specific routing and/or forwarding rules on some or each packet when a device has one or more, or multiple, interfaces. Contemplated filtering techniques may be implemented in a module and/or without modifying an IP stack. The contemplated packet filtering techniques may apply to a terminal in uplink and/or downlink as well as to any network node. An incoming packet table may be created using 5-tuple, 6-tuple, and/or tags, among other mechanisms, to support incoming and/or outgoing packet filtering.

A bearing component 2 for a joint replacement prosthesis comprises a first bearing element 4; a second bearing element 6, and a linking element 8, operatively connecting the first and second bearing elements 4, 6 and permitting relative motion there between. The flexible linking element 8 prevents dislocation of mobile bearings in a total knee replacement prosthesis. The invention also relates to a bridging element which retains the linking element 8 with some play, which acts as a ligament support 2051, and which causes a deflection of the line of action of a ligament 1018. A joint replacement prosthesis is also disclosed comprising a biasing element 1140 or a tensioning element 1220 operatively coupled to the artificial ligament 1018. The biasing element 1140 or tensioning element 1220 may be housed in the stem of a tibial tray 1006.
摘要:
A low noise (1/f) junction field effect transistor (JFET) is disclosed, wherein multiple implants push a conduction path of the transistor away from the surface of a layer upon which the transistor is formed. In this manner, current flow in the conduction path is less likely to be disturbed by defects that may exist at the surface of the layer, thereby mitigating (1/f) noise.

A semiconductor memory device and a method for performing a memory operation in the semiconductor memory device are provided. The semiconductor memory device includes a plurality of predetermined memory arrays, a bitline decoder, and a controller. The controller provides the memory operation signal to the bitline decoder and, after precharging bitlines of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays, performs the memory operation on selected memory cells in the one or more of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays in accordance with the memory operation signal. The bitline decoder includes a plurality of sector select transistors and determines selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays and selected rows and unselected rows within the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays in response to the memory operation signal. The bitline decoder also precharges the bitlines of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays to a first voltage potential then shuts off the sector select transistors of unselected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays and the unselected rows of the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays while maintaining the sector select transistors of the selected rows of the selected ones of the plurality of predetermined memory arrays at the first voltage potential prior to the controller performing the memory operation.
