  • Publication number: 20090212716
    Abstract: A light source driving circuit includes a voltage signal source and a temperature-improving current source for adjusting luminance of a series of LEDs. A first end of the series of LEDs is electrically connected to a ground end. The temperature-improving current source includes an adjustable power supply for outputting an adjustable voltage, a voltage-controlled current source for outputting currents according to the voltage signal source, and a feedback circuit electrically connected between a second end of the series of the LEDs and the adjustable power supply for controlling the output voltage of the adjustable power supply according to the voltage on the second end of the series of LEDs.

  • Publication number: 20070034270
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a microfluidic separating and transporting device, which utilizes free-energy gradient surfaces having micro/nano physical and chemical properties to drive and separate microfluids automatically. The device of the present invention comprises a platform having microchannels. The surfaces of the microchannels have surface energy gradient-inducing rare-to-dense microstructures. The rare-to-dense microstructures are formed in two regions; one is formed in the primary microchannel and used to transport microfluids, and the other is formed in the microfluid bifurcation region. When different microfluids flow through the microfluid bifurcation region, the microfluids will separate automatically to their own secondary microchannels according to the surface energy gradient. Thereby, droplets of different microfluids can be separated apart or split into diffluences.
