Abstract: An electrochemical storage diagnostic system is configured to perform an electrical test to measure energy storage device parameters. The diagnostic system includes a charge management controller, electrically coupled to a power multiplexer, a power converter circuit, and an isolated converter circuit. The charge management controller is programmed with instructions to identify a device under test, selected from at least one member of the plurality of energy storage devices to perform an electrical test. Then, adjust a charge in the secondary energy storage device to a target voltage through the power multiplexer by transferring energy between the secondary energy storage device and a support device, selected from at least one member of the plurality energy storage devices. After that, transfer electrical power through the power multiplexer and power converter circuit to the device under test in order to perform the electrical test. Finally, complete the electrical test.

Abstract: A touch sensor system. The touch sensor system may include a touch sensor configured to provide an output in response to contact with a touch area, a controller coupled to the touch sensor and configured to provide a code representative of the output and a memory coupled to the controller. The memory may be configured to receive and store the code in a first time interval and to provide the code in a second time interval wherein the second time interval begins after the first time interval ends. Adjacent key suppression algorithms are also provided.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a wax-based composition comprising at least about 0.5-30% water in a water-in-oil emulsion, wherein water is encapsulated in a lamellar lipid vesicle capable of withstanding wax melting point temperatures. The composition is useful in delivering water soluble actives in an anhydrous base, and is particularly well-adapted for uses in lipsticks and lip-care products.
