Abstract: A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or DisplayPort standards, and includes a raw cable and may include a boost device. The raw cable includes coaxial lines of a characteristic cable impedance higher than the impedance implied in the standards. The correct impedance is observed at the sending end by shunt resistors mounted in the first cable connector. The resultant loss of signal may be made up with the boost device mounted in the connector at the other end of the cable in the case of a long cable. Increasing the cable impedance reduces the inherent loss of the raw cable thus permitting the use of low cost material such as tinned wires. Similar advantages are obtained regardless whether Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) or coaxial lines are used.

Abstract: A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI), and includes a raw cable and a boost device. Each of four high speed video signals is carried on the inner conductors of a pair of coaxial lines in the raw cable. Lower speed signals are carried on the galvanically or capacitively coupled shields of a pair of coaxial lines, thus permitting fourteen HDMI signals to be carried in a cable comprising only eight coaxial lines, resulting in a simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable.

Abstract: A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or DisplayPort standards, and includes a raw cable and a boost device. The raw cable includes coaxial lines of a characteristic cable impedance lower than the impedance implied in the standards. The correct impedance is observed at the sending end by series resistors mounted in the first cable connector. The resultant loss of signal is made up with the boost device mounted in the connector at the other end of the cable. Reducing the cable impedance reduces the diameter of the coaxial shields to result a thinner cable, or conversely increases the wire gauge of the conductors to avoid the higher cost and fragility of very thin coax wires, thus permitting simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable. Similar advantages are obtained when Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) are used instead of coaxial lines.

Abstract: A high speed video cable carries signals according to the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) or DisplayPort standards, and includes a raw cable. The raw cable is constructed with either Shielded Twisted Pairs (STP) or coaxial lines which carry all signals on either shielded conductors or their shields. Some auxiliary signals including power are carried on ungrounded shields. This achieves a reduction in the number of wires in the cable leading to a thinner, lighter, and less costly HDMI or DisplayPort Cable. The use of a uniform technology, either STP or coax, also permits simpler and lower cost production and assembly of the cable.

Abstract: A method for measuring the release of 4-(3?-chloro-4?-fluoroanilino)-7-methoxy-6-(3-morpholinopropoxy)quinazoline or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof (the Agent) from a pharmaceutical composition, which method comprises: (i) immersing a pharmaceutical composition containing the Agent in a dissolution medium, wherein the dissolution medium comprises water and a non-ionic surfactant; and (ii) determining the concentration of the Agent in the dissolution medium at one or more time points following immersion of the pharmaceutical composition. The method is suitable for monitoring batch-to-batch variability as part of a quality control procedure; or as a means for determining the bioequivalence of different formulations containing the Agent.
