We describe the structure and method of forming a STT-MTJ MRAM cell that utilizes transfer of spin angular momentum as a mechanism for changing the magnetic moment direction of a free layer. The device includes an IrMn pinning layer, a SyAP pinned layer, a naturally oxidized, crystalline MgO tunneling barrier layer that is formed on an Ar-ion plasma smoothed surface of the pinned layer and, in one embodiment, a free layer that comprises an amorphous layer of Co₆₀Fe₂₀B₂₀. of approximately 20 angstroms thickness formed between two crystalline layers of Fe of 3 and 6 angstroms thickness respectively. The free layer is characterized by a low Gilbert damping factor and by very strong polarizing action on conduction electrons. The resulting cell has a low critical current, a high dR/R and a plurality of such cells will exhibit a low variation of both resistance and pinned layer magnetization angular dispersion.

In a vehicular control device, it is necessary to measure or calculate six physical quantities-forward-reverse speed, left-right speed, vertical speed, pitch angle, roll angle, and angle of sideslip-representing vehicular movement and to control the braking force of each wheel and/or the damping coefficient of each suspension shock absorber in order to further shorten braking distance particularly at the time of braking and to prevent spin at that time. In this case, it is necessary to furnish sensors to measure speed and angle directly. In the present invention, four radar sensors are used in order to directly measure the forward-reverse speed and the left-right speed. Also, the vertical speed, the pitch angle, the roll angle, and the angle of sideslip are indirectly measured from the output of the radar sensors. By using three or four radar sensors, six physical quantities-the forward speed, the left-right direction speed, the vertical speed, the angle of sideslip, the pitch angle, and the roll angle-can be measured. Also, by using two radar sensors, three physical quantities-the forward speed, the left-right speed, and the angle of sideslip-can be measured.

A low-dropout regulator comprises a high-gain error amplifier having a differential input stage and a single-ended output, a high-swing high-positive-gain second stage with input connecting to the output of the error amplifier and a single-ended output, a p-type MOS transistor with gate terminal connecting to the output of the second stage, source terminal connecting to the supply voltage, and drain terminal to the output of the low-dropout regulator. A first-order high-pass feedback network connects the output of the low-dropout regulator and the positive input of the error amplifier, and a damping-factor-control means comprising a negative gain stage with a feedback capacitor connects the input and output of this gain stage. A capacitor is connected between the output of the error amplifier and the output of the low-dropout regulator, while a voltage reference connects to the negative input of the error amplifier. The regulator does not require an off-chip capacitor for stability and has improved load transient response and power supply rejection ratio.

The invention relates to a five-dimensional vibration isolation device which is suitable for equipment arranged on a dynamic carrier. Aiming at the problem of five-dimensional vibration of the equipment on the dynamic carrier, one hybrid mechanism-based vibration isolation platform is arranged between an equipment mounting platform and a carrier connecting platform to realize five-dimensional vibration isolation. The vibration isolation platform consists of the equipment mounting platform (1), a middle platform (2), the carrier connecting platform (5), six branched chains comprising vibration isolation subsystems and a constraint branch containing no vibration isolation subsystem, so that vibration isolation along spatial three-movement two-rotation directions can be realized. Each vibration isolation subsystem in each branched chain is formed by connecting a linear spring (3) and a magneto-rheological damper (4) in parallel; and control over the entire platform is realized by changing a damping coefficient of the magneto-rheological damper. Since the movement and the rotation of a hybrid mechanism are fully decoupled, the control of the system is relatively simple. Experiments prove that the vibration isolation platform using the five-dimensional vibration isolation device enables that a vibration signal transferred to the equipment by the carrier is obviously weakened, so that the vibration isolation platform has the advantage of effectively and reliably improving the dynamic environment of the equipment of the dynamic carrier.

In an electromagnet switch, a stationary iron core is composed mainly of a base part and a disk part. The base part is faced to a plunger and the disk part is forcedly inserted and fixed to a boss part formed in the base part. The disk part is composed of a metal plate of ferromagnetic substance (iron plate) and another substance plate (made of resin or rubber and the like, for example,) of a smaller spring constant or a larger damping coefficient than that of the metal plate.

The invention relates to a method for adaptively controlling hybrid damping of a grid-connected inverter applicable to weak grid access conditions. Most existing methods are used for optimally controlling fixed impedance of grids at present, but grid access conditions of grid-connected inverters are dynamic and varied, so that adaptive control under different grid impedance conditions has high application value.
