Reducing offset in accelerometers

Accelerometer offset is reduced by forming mass support structures within an inner periphery of the mass, affixing the mass support structures to the substrate by at least one anchor positioned near the mass' center of mass, and affixing the sensing fingers proximate to the anchor. The mass support structures can be affixed to the substrate using a single anchor or multiple anchors that are positioned close together. The sensing fingers can be affixed to the substrate or to the mass support structures. The mass is typically suspended from within its periphery but toward its outer periphery.

Balanced positioning system for use in lithographic apparatus

A balanced positioning apparatus comprises a balance mass which is supported so as to be moveable in the three degrees of freedom, such as X and Y translations and rotation about the Z-axis. Drive forces in these degrees of freedom act directly between the positioning body and the balance mass. Reaction forces arising from positioning movements result in corresponding movement of the balance mass and all reaction forces are kept within the balanced positioning system. The balance mass may be a rectangular balance frame having the stators of two linear motors forming the uprights of an H-drive mounted on opposite sides. The cross-piece of the H-drive spans the frame and the positioned object is positioned within the central opening of the frame.

Adc, a temperature sensor, a non-contact transponder, and a method of converting analog signals to digital signals

ActiveUS20110200070A1Small coverageWithout an undue burden of time (and thus energy)Thermometer detailsThermometer with A/D convertersVIT signalsGreek letter sigma
An ADC is disclosed which has, as a first stage, a successive approximation converter, or other compensated, direct comparison converter, followed by a sigma delta modulation converter as a second stage. The sigma delta converter may beneficially be a first order modulator. The resulting ADC combines accuracy with low power consumption per conversion, and thus is particularly suited for use in temperature sensors for applications such as RFID transponders. Such a temperature sensor and an RFID transponder are also disclosed. There is also disclosed a method of analog-to-digital conversion, comprising a first successive approximation register or other compensated, direct comparison conversion stage followed by a sigma delta modulation stage, which, further, may be combined with providing a proportional-to-absolute-temperature (PTAT) signal, for low-power, accurate temperature sensing.

Backpack for harvesting electrical energy during walking and for minimizing shoulder strain

ActiveUS20060192386A1Reduce absolute vertical motionLarge movementTravelling sacksPiezoelectric/electrostriction/magnetostriction machinesGear wheelShoulder strain
A suspended-load backpack designed to permit the load to move relative to the backpack frame during walking and running so that the large movements between the load and the frame of the backpack reduce the fluctuations of absolute vertical motion of the load. Because the hip (and thus the pack frame) go up a down a good deal during walking, a large relative movement between the frame and the load reduces the absolute excursion of the load. This movement may be, in turn, transferred to a motor through, for example, a rack and pinion gear, to convert the mechanical movement to electrical energy. The movement may also be converted to electrical energy by using an electroactive polymer (EAP) to connect the suspended load to the frame. Such designs allow the load to move in a controlled fashion to prevent the patient from losing his or her balance as the load moves up and down along the backpack frame. Such movement of the suspended-load relative to the frame also reduces the forces on the wearer's shoulders while walking or running, thus reducing the likelihood of orthopedic injury.

Source synchronous transfer scheme for a high speed memory interface

Data transfer scheme wherein data transfer rates can be effectively doubled with no increase in the clock speed of the interface. This is accomplished by allowing more than one data transfer to occur on a single clock cycle. This transfer scheme increases the transfer rate of the interface by multiplexing two data groups on the same interface. These data groups are transmitted from a source phase latch at approximately the same time as two strobe signals which have low skew with respect to the data. The master and slave strobe signals are logically combined to create an even latch enable signal and an odd latch enable signal that are used to latch and de-multiplex the multiplexed data groups at a receiving end of a pair of flow-though source synchronous latches.
