Abstract: A pulse amplifier has a driver stage and a following splitter/combiner stage for power division onto two output stages connected in parallel as well as a further splitter/combiner stage that combines the output signals of the output stages. The two splitter/combiner stages each comprise a respective further decoupled port each of which is respectively connected to a switch-over device. The further ports are connected to terminating impedances in a first switch position of the switch-over devices and are connected to one another via an additional signal path in a second switch position and the output stages can be respectively terminated with low impedances at their input sides and output sides via switch elements.

Abstract: Monolithically-integrated circuits comprise at least two circuit branches parallel to one another which respectively contain one or more field effect transistors. In order to reduce open errors in the transistor leads, the connecting regions of the field effect transistors are constructed such that they form strip-shaped connecting zones which are interrupted only by the channel regions of the field effect transistors and which are otherwise self-contained.

Abstract: A machine for automatically wrapping in stretch plastic film a shallow tray filled with irregularly shaped contents comprises, in sequence of operation, a horizontally directed feed table means by which articles to be wrapped are fed into the machine, a film feed station, a girth wrapping station, a side wrapping station, and a discharge or delivery conveyor for conducting a fully wrapped and sealed article out of the machine. The machine is capable of operating continuously, handling a consecutive seriatim flow of articles therethrough. The film feed station comprises a vertically reciprocable film clamp and support arm for raising a sheet of stretch film transversely across the travel path of the article to be wrapped. The article passes through the curtain of film and into the girth wrapping station, causing the lower edge of the film to be folded beneath the bottom of the article tray.
