Abstract: An electric machine includes a machine rotor circumscribed by a machine stator, and having a rotor shaft, rotor stack, and end cap which rotate about an axis. The end cap includes lobes equal in number to a number of pole pairs of the machine rotor. A position sensor assembly has a predetermined alignment with the machine rotor and stator. The sensor assembly includes a sensor rotor formed by the lobes and a sensor stator having a printed circuit board with conductive sine and cosine traces. Machine rotor rotation causes the sensor assembly to output an unmodulated sine and cosine signals to a controller, which then calculates a calibrated reference angle. A magnetic axis of an electrical phase of the machine is aligned with and bisects a peak of the sine trace. A direct axis of the machine rotor aligns with an edge of a lobe.

Abstract: A midboard cable connector assembly with a board connector and a cable connector. The board connector has terminals precisely positioned with respect to engagement features. A cable connector likewise has terminals precisely positioned with respect to complementary engagement features. When the connectors are pressed together for mating, the terminals of one or both connectors deform, generating a force that separates the connectors until the engagement features engage and block further backward motion. As the mating position is defined by the locations of the engagement features, the connectors can be designed with low over travel and a resulting short stub length, which promotes high frequency performance. High frequency performance is further promoted by a ground conductor interconnecting the beams forming mating contact portions of ground terminals, reducing the length of unconnected segments and by a cable clamp plate with complaint compression features that reduce distortion of the cables.

Further, the processor is configured to reconstruct at least a sample of the current block based on the reconstructed samples of the reference block that are retrieved from the reference sample memory.

A classical complement pathway inhibitor is used to treat hemolytic anemia, for example ceftriaxone-induced complement-mediated hemolysis. A Complement Hemolysis Using Human Erythrocytes (CHUHE) assay is also described where exogenous ceftriaxone is added to a patients serum to show enhanced lysis of the patients erythrocytes in vitro. Ceftriaxone is shown to initiate classical complement pathway-mediated hemolysis by ex vivo reversal with Peptide Inhibitor of Complement C1 (PIC1).
