Abstract: Devices and methods for improving voltage handling and/or bi-directionality of stacks of elements when connected between terminals are described. Such devices and method include use of symmetrical compensation capacitances, symmetrical series capacitors, or symmetrical sizing of the elements of the stack.

Abstract: A browser or browser component queues touch events on a user device while an associated network page is being rendered. The browser may store a detected touch event, a location of the touch event, and/or a vector associated with the touch event in a touch events queue implemented by a data repository. The browser may also visually indicate that the touch event has been registered. Once the network page is at least partially interactive, the browser may retrieve the touch event information from the touch events queue and apply the touch event. Prior to or after applying the touch event, the visual indicator that alerts the user that the touch event was registered may be removed. The browser may then re-render and display the network page after the touch event has been applied.
