Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media may be operable to facilitate an automated pairing between an access point and station through a secure setup procedure. An access point may enter into an auto-connection mode after a boot of the access point, and while operating in the auto-connection mode, the access point may identify a station by retrieving attribute information carried by a probe request that is output from the station. The access point may compare the retrieved attribute information to one or more criteria attributes, and if the retrieved attribute information associated with the station matches the one or more criteria attributes, the access point may be placed into a secure setup mode. While the access point is in the secure setup mode, the station from which the probe request was received may be paired with the access point.

Abstract: A new process of manufacturing a hybrid cannula may include creating a first part with at least two components, overmolding at least two components of a second part to a channel in each component of the first part, and fixing the components of the first part together. The second part may include various types of features such as thick/thin dams, squirt membranes, and/or duck bill dams inside the hybrid cannula. Each dam may have any number, shape, orientation, and length of slits/openings. The slits/openings may allow passage of an instrument while the dam(s) may prevent fluid from passing through the hybrid cannula. A third part may optionally be overmolded to at least a portion of the first part, at least a portion of the second part, or both. The third part may provide an extension, a flange, or a combination thereof at a distal end of the hybrid cannula.

Abstract: A device and method for performing Avalanche Mode Delta VsD testing of a semiconductor device under test (DUT), include a current source configured to provide energy in the form of a substantially non-decaying current to a DUT for heating of the DUT during an avalanche mode; and test circuitry electrically couplable to the current source and the DUT and configured to perform Avalanche Mode Delta VsD testing of the DUT.

Abstract: An electrochemical sensor may measure the flow of ions and/or electrochemical species in a solution passing the sensor because the electroactive species will continually come into contact with the electrode and an electric signal will be generated by the combination of diffusion and convection bringing the electroactive species to the electrode. The electric signal measured will vary by concentration of ions and/or electrochemical specie(s) and by flow rate. Flow rate may be measured if the concentration of ions and/or electrochemical specie(s) is known; conversely, the concentration of ions and/or electrochemical species may be measured if the flow rate is known. The sensor may also be used to confirm the delivery of a fluid containing ions and/or electrochemical specie(s).
