  • Patent number: 11362080
    Abstract: A semiconductor arrangement includes at least one switching device, electrically coupled between a first terminal and a second terminal, at least one diode, coupled in parallel to the at least one switching device between the first terminal and the second terminal, at least one bonding pad, and at least one electrically connecting element. Each of the at least one electrically connecting element is arranged to electrically couple one of the at least one switching device to one of the at least one diode. Each electrically connecting element includes a first end, a second end, and a middle section, and for at least one of the electrically connecting element, the first end is mechanically coupled to the respective switching device, the second end is mechanically coupled to the respective diode, and the middle section is mechanically coupled to at least one of the at least one bonding pad.

  • Publication number: 20110069819
    Abstract: The invention provides a device for a computer tomography gantry (91) for transmitting data, wherein the gantry comprises a stationary part (92) and a rotary part (93). The device is adapted to transmit the data between the stationary part of the gantry (92) and the rotary part (93) of the gantry (91). The device comprises a hollow conductor (104, 204, 308) which is adapted to guide a first wave, a sender (102, 103) which is adapted to send the first wave inside the hollow conductor and a receiver (106) which is adapted to receive the first wave after a runtime inside the hollow conductor (104, 204, 308). A further aspect of the invention is a computer tomography gantry (91) comprising a device according to the inventive concept. Using the described device allows to transmit data between the rotary (93) and the stationary part (92), to measure a rotating speed of the rotary part (93) and to measure a position of the rotary part (93) with respect to the stationary part (92).
