20120012357 | Economical boosted high speed data cable - A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), and includes a raw cable and a boost device. Each of four high speed video signals is carried on the inner conductors of a pair of coaxial lines in the raw cable. Lower speed signals are carried on the galvanically or capacitively coupled shields of a pair of coaxial lines, thus permitting fourteen HDMI signals to be carried in a cable comprising only eight coaxial lines, resulting in a simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable. | 01-19-2012 |
20120012358 | High speed data cable with impedance correction - A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or DisplayPort standards, and includes a raw cable and may include a boost device. The raw cable includes coaxial lines of a characteristic cable impedance higher than the impedance implied in the standards. The correct impedance is observed at the sending end by shunt resistors mounted in the first cable connector. The resultant loss of signal may be made up with the boost device mounted in the connector at the other end of the cable in the case of a long cable. Increasing the cable impedance reduces the inherent loss of the raw cable thus permitting the use of low cost material such as tinned wires. Similar advantages are obtained regardless whether Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) or coaxial lines are used. | 01-19-2012 |
20120012359 | Low cost high speed data cable - A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or DisplayPort standards, and includes a raw cable. The raw cable is constructed with either Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) or coaxial lines which carry all signals on either shielded conductors or their shields. Some auxiliary signals including power are carried on ungrounded shields. This achieves a reduction in the number of wires in the cable leading to a thinner, lighter, and less costly HDMI or DisplayPort Cable. The use of a uniform technology, either STP or coax, also permits simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable. | 01-19-2012 |

Lower speed signals are carried on the galvanically or capacitively coupled shields of a pair of coaxial lines, as well as the braid of the cable, thus permitting fourteen HDMI signals to be carried in a cable comprising only eight coaxial lines, resulting in a simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable. | 01-19-2012 |

The correct impedance is observed at the sending end by series resistors mounted in the first cable connector. The resultant loss of signal is made up with the boost device mounted in the connector at the other end of the cable. Reducing the cable impedance reduces the diameter of the coaxial shields to result a thinner cable, or conversely increases the wire gauge of the conductors to avoid the higher cost and fragility of very thin coax wires, thus permitting simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable. Similar advantages are obtained when Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) are used instead of coaxial lines. | 01-19-2012 |

The high speed signals are carried on the shielded wires to the boost device where any common mode noise induced by the signals on the shields is removed. Some auxiliary signals including power are carried on ungrounded shields. This achieves a reduction in the number of wires in the cable leading to a thinner, lighter, and less costly HDMI or DisplayPort Cable.

The Active of the invention may be suitably administered when a patient is in relapse (i.e. upon relapse), and be continued while the patient is in relapse, with a view to attenuating the severity of the relapse, and/or accelerating disease remission. Alternatively, the Active may be administered continuously with a view to prolonging the remission period, and/or attenuating the severity of the relapse, and/or preventing relapse. The invention also relates to the use of the Active as a treatment for symptoms of demyelination disease, especially MS, selected from vision deficits, motor control deficits, and sensation deficits. | 10-25-2012 |

20110127880 | REACTIVE NETWORKS TO REDUCE ACOUSTIC NOISE AND ENSURE MAXIMUM EFFICIENCIES IN DRIVING PIEZOELECTRIC ELEMENTS IN HAPTIC APPLICATIONS - A device and method are provided to drive piezoelectric elements in haptic applications. In one embodiment, a pattern generator provides user programmable PWM waveforms to a driver. The load of the driver is an inductor in series with the piezoelectric element. The filtration of the inductor in series with the capacitance of the piezoelectric element suppresses the high-frequency components of the PWM pulse train, and recovers a value commensurate with the duty cycle of the PWM pulse train. The resulting waveform across the piezoelectric element is converted to physical motion, thereby creating a haptic effect on a user interface. Advantageously, there is reduced power loss, reduced switching induced noise, and a more haptic rich environment. | 06-02-2011 |
