  • Publication number: 20150061769
    Abstract: A control apparatus is provided that can provide high dynamic resolution and is suitable for inclusion within an integrated circuit. The control apparatus receives a demand signal representing a desired value of a measurand, and a feedback signal representing a present value or a recently acquired value of the measurand. The processing circuit forms a further signal a further signal which is a function of the demand and feedback signals. The further signal is then subjected to at least an integrating function. The demand signal, feedback signal or the further signal is processed or acquired in a sampled manner. The use of such sampled, i.e. discontinuous, processing allows integration time constants to be synthesized which would otherwise require the use of unfeasibly large components within an integrated circuit, or the use of off-chop components. Both of these other options are expensive.

  • Publication number: 20120245272
    Abstract: A hydrosilylation process is used to prepare a polyorganosiloxane having clustered functional groups at the polyorganosiloxane chain terminals. The ingredients used in the process include a) a polyorganosiloxane having an average of at least 2 aliphatically unsaturated organic groups per molecule, b) a polyorganohydrogensiloxane having an average of 4 to 15 silicon atoms per molecule and at least 4 silicon bonded hydrogen atoms for each aliphatically unsaturated organic group in ingredient a), c) a reactive species having, per molecule at least 1 aliphatically unsaturated organic group and 1 or more curable groups; and d) a hydrosilylation catalyst. The resulting clustered functional polyorganosiloxane is useful in a curable silicone composition for electronics applications.
