Patent number: 8732539Abstract: A test system having a sub-system to sub-system bridge may be provided that utilizes the useful attributes of a plurality of circuit testing techniques, while reducing deficiencies associated with certain types of circuit testing. A bridged test system structure is utilized to facilitate circuit testing that is more effective and time efficient. The method analyzes performance data acquired by a first component for one or more circuits, and sends that performance data to a second test component. The second test component provides test signals to the circuits, using the performance date to enhance the use of the test signals, and also provides test response data for the circuits in response to the provided test signals.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2013Date of Patent: May 20, 2014Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Charles Lutz, Jason Speilvogel, Nicole Nall, Barron Cain, William Keyes, Gregory Irwin

Patent number: 8484795Abstract: An apparatus and associated method are provided for collecting debris from a tool. A housing defines a channel, at least one of the tool and the housing being selectively movable to operably orient the tool at a predefined reference relationship to the channel. A magnetic member is operable to demagnetize at least one of the tool and the debris. A windage source in fluid communication with the channel is operable to establish a windage contacting the tool to cooperate with the magnetic member in removing the debris from the tool. A conduit connected to the channel collects the removed debris.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2010Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Seagate Technology LLCInventors: Chad Francis Barclay, Joseph Charles Lutz, Kok Wah Jackie Tan, Kok Loong Teng

Publication number: 20060081963Abstract: A bipolar transistor includes a base layer design and a method for fabricating such a bipolar transistor that employ a built-in accelerating field focused on a base region adjacent to a collector, where minority carrier transport is otherwise retarded. The accelerating field of the base layer includes on average, a relatively low p-doping level in a first region proximate to the collector and a relatively high p-doping level in a second region proximate to an emitter. Alternatively, the accelerating field can be derived from band gap grading, wherein the grade of band gap in the first region is greater than the grade of band gap in the second region, and the average band gap of the first region is lower than that of the second region.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2004Publication date: April 20, 2006Applicant: Kopin CorporationInventors: Eric Rehder, Roger Welser, Charles Lutz

Publication number: 20050158942Abstract: A semiconductor material which has a high carbon dopant concentration includes gallium, indium, arsenic and nitrogen. The disclosed semiconductor materials have a low sheet resistivity because of the high carbon dopant concentrations obtained. The material can be the base layer of gallium arsenide-based heterojunction bipolar transistors and can be lattice-matched to gallium arsenide emitter and/or collector layers by controlling concentrations of indium and nitrogen in the base layer. The base layer can have a graded band gap that is formed by changing the flow rates during deposition of III and V additive elements employed to reduce band gap relative to different III-V elements that represent the bulk of the layer. The flow rates of the III and V additive elements maintain an essentially constant doping-mobility product value during deposition and can be regulated to obtain pre-selected base-emitter voltages at junctions within a resulting transistor.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2005Publication date: July 21, 2005Applicant: Kopin CorporationInventors: Roger Welser, Paul Deluca, Charles Lutz, Kevin Stevens, Noren Pan
