  • Patent number: 10263571
    Abstract: An RF PA and an RF PA protection circuit are disclosed according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. The RF PA includes an RF PA bias circuit and an RF PA transistor element. The RF PA transistor element has a first current terminal and a control terminal. The RF PA protection circuit is coupled between the RF PA bias circuit and the first current terminal. The RF PA protection circuit reduces a current through the first current terminal using the RF PA bias circuit when a magnitude of a voltage at the first current terminal exceeds a protection threshold.

  • Publication number: 20190103198
    Abstract: The invention provides a method for generating medical isotopes, the method comprising contacting a primary radiation beam with a converter for a time sufficient to produce a secondary beam of gamma particles, and contacting the beam of gamma particles to a target, where the cross section dimension of the beam of gamma particles is similar to the cross section dimension of the target. Both the converter and target are small in diameter and very closely spaced. Also provided is a system for producing medical isotopes, the device comprising a housing having a first upstream end and a second downstream end, a radiotransparent channel (collimator) with a first upstream end and a downstream end, wherein the upstream end is adapted to receive a radiation beam, a target positioned downstream of the downstream end of the channel and coaxially aligned with the channel, wherein the target has a cross section that is similar to the cross section of the channel.

  • Publication number: 20180225167
    Abstract: A packet is identified at a port of a serial data link, and it is determined that the packet is associated with an error. Entry into an error recovery mode is initiated based on the determination that the packet is associated with the error. Entry into the error recovery mode can cause the serial data link to be forced down. In one aspect, forcing the data link down causes all subsequent inbound packets to be dropped and all pending outbound requests and completions to be aborted during the error recovery mode.

  • Patent number: 9979462
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a storage device configured to store location information of multiple receivers and auxiliary data associated with a space vehicle. A motion compensation block configured to correct timing of a received signal by a receiver from a space-vehicle transmitter and to generate a motion-compensated signal having corrected timing for motions of the space-vehicle transmitter. The corrected timing is determined based on stored location information of the receiver and the auxiliary data. The frequency correction block is configured to correct a carrier frequency of the motion-compensated signal using information associated with a synch channel of the received signal and to generate a processed signal.
