Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising (i) a renin inhibitor, (ii) a calcium channel blocker (CCB), and a diuretic and to a method of using such composition for the treatment of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract: A multi-chip module and a chip set that comprises a plurality of the multi-chip modules. The multi-chip module includes a plurality of functional circuits provided on a substrate, the circuits defining a plurality of signal inputs and outputs. A plurality of pins are secured in a single row along the periphery of the substrate and are connected to the inputs and outputs. The pins include a set of 91 signal pins, two ground pins, and a power pin, the signal pins having a configuration complying in number and signal type with the IEEE-Prequirements to define an ISA bus. The multi-hip module includes a rectangular housing wherein the pins, in the form of gull wing pins, extend laterally from a peripherally extending wall. The ISA bus pins extend along one side and partially along adjacent sides of the rectangular module.

Abstract: Multi-chip computer module with a CPU and other functional circuits such as serial and parallel interfaces, a hard drive interface, a floppy disk interface, a keyboard interface, and flash memory. During initialization, the module can check the wiring of a connector coupled to a serial port to determine the mode in which the module should operate, and in an operational mode, normal serial communications can be carried on through the serial port. Fail safe BIOS operation is provided by storing a BIOS program both in a read only memory (ROM) and in a flash memory, with the flash memory serving as the source of the BIOS program under normal operating conditions. If the flash memory should become erased or otherwise corrupted, the ROM can serve as the source of the BIOS program and allow the flash memory to be reprogrammed.
