  • Dynamic electrical and fluid delivery system with indexing motion for batch processing chambers
    Patent number: 11950384
    Abstract: Process assemblies and cable management assemblies for managing cables in tight envelopes. A processing assembly includes a top chamber having at least one substrate support, a support shaft, a robot spindle assembly, a stator and a cable management system. The cable management system includes an inner trough assembly and an outer trough assembly configured to move relative to one another, and a plurality of chain links configured to house at least one cable for delivering power to the process assembly.

  • Systems and methods for comparing signal channels having different common mode transient immunity
    Patent number: 10692362
    Abstract: A sensor integrated circuit includes a main processing channel that responds to an input signal by generating a first processed signal from the input signal. Also included is a diagnostic processing channel that responds to the input signal by generating a second processed signal from the input signal. The main processing channel has a first response to disturbances and the diagnostic processing channel has a second response to disturbances that is slower than the first response of the main processing channel. A checker circuit in the sensor integrated circuit detects faults in the sensor IC and generates a fault signal when the first processed signal and the second processed signal differ from each other by more than a threshold amount.

  • Computer Based Method for Determining the Size of an Object in an Image
    Publication number: 20140357978
    Abstract: Volume changes in a brain, brain ventricle, or hippocampus are quantitatively extracted from a comparison of 3D before and after images using an algorithm that distorts a triangulated surface of the before image to produce the surface of the after image and calculates the volume change from the area change.
