Abstract: Status messages are wirelessly broadcast from medical devices (e.g., defibrillators) as advertisements that don't require the establishment of a wireless connection with listeners. The listeners are configured to act on, or forward received status messages as appropriate. The listeners may optionally include supplemental information supplied by the listener device when forwarding a status message to a management server. The listener may optionally analyze received status messages to determine whether an action should be taken based at least in part on status information in the message. Actions performed by the listener may include initiating a connection with the transmitting device to facilitate uploading new information from the defibrillator, updating the defibrillator's firmware, etc. Optionally, some of the advertisements are configured as beacons. The advertisements/beacons may be transmitted using a Bluetooth Low Energy or other suitable protocols.

Abstract: An image forming device includes a photosensitive drum, a development roller, a current detection circuit, a power supply part and a power supply control part. The development roller develops an electrostatic latent image formed on the photosensitive drum and forms a toner image on the photosensitive drum. The current detection circuit detects a development current flowing between the photosensitive drum and the development roller when the toner image is formed and outputs a detection signal showing a current value of the development current. The power supply part applies a voltage on the development roller. The power supply control part controls the power supply part such that a variation of the voltage has a negative correlation with a variation of the current value shown in the detection signal.

Abstract: Both parallel-type and serial-type dual-mode oscillators employing stress compensated cut resonators having various configurations are disclosed. Both classes of dual-mode oscillators employ multiple tank circuits to pass one frequency of the resonator and block the other frequency.

The dual-mode oscillators may be implemented with either bipolar or CMOS transistors. The parallel-type dual-mode oscillators employ inverters to provide gain. The serial-type dual-mode oscillators employ a two (or three) stage design including a follower circuit first stage and an inverting amplifier/limiter circuit second stage, with an optional intervening transimpedance amplifier stage.
