    摘要: A scan module of an electronic device scans a capacitive keypad for detection of the actuation of any capacitive touch sensor. This scan module remains in operation even when major power consuming circuits of the electronic device are in a sleep mode, and will not wake up the major power consuming circuits until an action requiring the circuits is needed, thereby, reducing overall power consumption of the electronic device while still maintaining scanning of the capacitive keypad. Upon detection of a valid key press of a capacitive touch sensor, an interrupt to the electronic device brings it out of a sleep mode and into an operating mode for further processing and appropriate action commensurate with the actuation of the specific capacitive touch sensor.

    摘要: A time period of an event is determined by charging a known value capacitor from a constant current source during the event. The resultant voltage on the capacitor is proportional to the event time period and may be calculated from the resultant voltage and known capacitance value. Capacitance is measured by charging a capacitor from a constant current source during a known time period. The resultant voltage on the capacitor is proportional to the capacitance thereof and may be calculated from the resultant voltage and known time period. A long time period event may be measured by charging a first capacitor at the start of the event and a second capacitor at the end of the event, while counting clock times therebetween. Delay of an event is done by charging voltages on first and second capacitors at beginning and end of event, while comparing voltages thereon with a reference voltage.

    摘要: Field Effect Transistors are used to replace mechanical relays and to minimize the distance a Device Under Test (DUT) must drive a signal path to the receiver, to minimize insertion losses in critical paths to the DUT, and generally increase reliability in integrated test systems by eliminating the need for relays to test integrated circuits.

    摘要: A battery-backed ancillary power-management chip, in combination with a battery-backed microprocessor or microcontroller, permits a low-power system to achieve a zero-power standby mode with full nonvolatility. The ancillary chip contains transmission gates which can cut off the connection between two other chips if one of them is turned off. This avoids problems of power leakage, substrate pumping, etc., when two chips which are connected together can be independently powered up or powered down.Also provided is a portable data module, which includes a microprocessor and a large LCD display. The disclosed inventions permit the user to operate the display without powering up the microprocessor (to preserve a complex display, e.g. when the user has provided no inputs for a certain length of time), or to operate the microprocessor without the display (e.g. for data transfer or reduction operations).

    摘要: A blood glucose meter comprises a blood sample test strip, a constant current source, a precision timer, a digital processor and memory, and an analog measurement circuit, e.g., voltage comparator, analog-to-digital converter (ADC), etc., that eliminates the complex analog front end and other related circuits of present technology glucose meters. When a blood sample is applied to the blood sample test strip a charge, Q, develops from the reaction between an enzyme in the test strip and the blood sample. The constant current source injects a constant current value, I, into the charge, Q, on the blood sample test strip over a precisely measured time determined by when the excess charge, Q, has been removed from the test strip. The amount of charge, Q, is determined by Q=I*T, the charge, Q, is then converted into a blood glucose level for display.
