The invention provides an LED lighting device and method that produces high intensity, spatially uniform, white light in the near and far fields in a reduced package size that does not significantly heat the surrounding environment, wherein the white light is produced by using a phosphor layer in conjunction with a single LED.

The present invention is directed to an LED lighting source comprising a housing adapted for coupling to an AC power source; a rectifier circuit for converting the AC power to a DC supply; a power control circuit disposed in the housing and electrically connected to the DC supply; a string of LED's electrically connected between a control node of the power control circuit and the DC supply, the LEDs in the string being connected in series and being of a number selected to produce a voltage difference across the power control circuit sufficient to power active components of said power control circuit when powered from the DC supply and the power control circuit for limiting a forward current through the string to a nominal forward current of a single LED.

An electrical connector assembly comprising a housing having an interior chamber defining at least one lead frame plane, and identical sets of non-identical lead frame elements. The lead frame plane has a reference point. The lead frame elements are mounted in the interior chamber and aligned within at least one lead frame plane. The lead frame elements are adjustable along the lead frame plane between multiple levels with respect to the reference point. The multiple mating levels of the lead frame elements are created from only one lead frame. The mating levels are selected by the individual lead frame elements being positioned with respect to the reference point. The electrical connector also comprises N lead frame elements, each of which is adjustable between M mating levels to form X lead frame configurations, wherein X=M^N.

Systems and methods treat urologic dysfunctions by implanting a lead and electrode in a tissue region affecting urologic function, and implanting a pulse generator in an anterior pelvic region remote from the electrode. Bilateral stimulation of the left and/or right branches of the dorsal genital nerves using a single lead implanted in adipose or other tissue in the region at or near the pubic symphysis is able to treat urinary incontinence.

An AC driven LED light string assembly is provided possessing reduced harmonic distortion and improved electrical efficiency when one or more series blocks of LED lamps is employed. In one embodiment, there is provided an LED light string employing a capacitor coupled in parallel across the light string AC input, or end connector terminals. According to another embodiment, LED light strings are to be manufactured with a substantially equal number of light strings produced with all LEDs in forward bias (anode first) and reverse bias (cathode first). This allows true randomness when large numbers of single series block LED light strings are connected in an end-to-end manner. It is possible to apply this concept to single LED lamps having two chips where one chip is powered in reverse bias to the second chip; thereby providing self-canceling harmonics within the single LED lamp.

A flashlight has a single lamp, a power storage element, and a switch. The switch operates by being incremented through a sequence of states, and each increment may be caused an application and release of pressure. The different states correspond to different lamp brightness levels, and may include an off state. An electronic controller may be included with connections to each of a number of contacts on the switch. The lamp may be a single LED efficiently operable over a range of power and brightness levels at a consistent color output.

A method and system decomposes a cardiac signal, such as an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal, into components. The components are then usable to assist in the detection of an abnormal heart condition. More particularly, a single lead sensor is used to generate a single lead cardiac signal. The cardiac signal is segmented into a set of cycle segments according to detected heart waveforms. The cycle segments are aligned and used to generate a set of cross-sectional signals. The cross-sectional signals are aligned and presented as inputs to a signal separation process, which separates the cardiac signal into a set of components. The components may be grouped according to predefined criteria. The components or groups may be analyzed or displayed to assist in the detection of an abnormal cardiac signal, which may be indicative of an abnormal heart condition. In one example, the signal separation process is a non-orthogonal transformation method such as independent component analysis (ICA).

A LED bulb and light module utilizes a LED light source and directs light therefrom in a manner which improves efficiency and illumination. Ideally, the LED bulb is structured to create a virtual image whereby the efficiency of light directed out of the module is greatly improved, even with a single LED light source. The LED bulb generally includes a light pipe receiving light from the LED light source and guides the light downstream to a downstream portion which redirects the light radially outwardly.

A portable communication device includes a status indictor in the form of a single multicolor generating LED. The single LED indicates radio channel and battery status.
