Abstract: The invention provides DNA compositions that relate to transgenic insect resistant maize plants. Also provided are assays for detecting the presence of the maize DAS-59122-7 event based on the DNA sequence of the recombinant construct inserted into the maize genome and the DNA sequences flanking the insertion site. Kits and conditions useful in conducting the assays are provided.

Abstract: A heat removal device includes a shroud on a top side of a printed circuit board that contains a power connector. An air intake vent is located underneath the printed circuit board and directs air up through printed circuit board vias into the shroud. Openings are located in a power connector housings that allow air to flow over conductors in the connector and out an air outtake vent. The conductors include heat sink fins that extend out of the openings in the connector housing.

Abstract: A system for the distribution of VTT termination voltage for a GTL bus system includes a plurality of GTL signal lines, a plurality of first termination resistors, and a plurality of second termination resistors. The GTL signal lines have a first end and a second end. The resistors have a signal end and a VTT end. The first end of the signal line is connected to the signal end of the first resistor. The second end of the signal line is connected to the signal end of the first resistor. A plurality of nodes are formed from the VTT ends of the first and second resistors. These nodes may be formed in many different ways, and in many different numbers. The nodes are each driven with a separate VTT supply, and the nodes are interconnected such that a failure in the power supply furnishing power to one node does not affect the other nodes, and does not affect the operation of the system consuming this VTT voltage.

Abstract: An out-of-line igniter assembly having a primer located out-of-line of an nition train and movable to an in-line position for ignition of a main pyrotechnic charge. A housing has a raceway connected with a gas expansion chamber and a pellet chamber, and a slider having a primer and a striker assembly is movable in the raceway. Premature detonation of the primer causes the primer to fire into the gas expansion chamber but, in normal operation, the slider is moved so that the primer is fired into the pellet chamber. Movement of the slider causes the striker assembly to actuate when the slider is in an in-line position with the pellet chamber.
