Patent number: 11185656Abstract: A pressure swing adsorption (PSA) system and methods for controlling each PSA cycle performed by the PSA system to produce oxygen enriched gas during productive portions of a user breathing cycle, and to cease production of oxygen enriched gas during non-productive portions of the user breathing cycle, is provided. The PSA system synchronizes PSA cycle phases including adsorption and desorption phases with a user's individual inhalation and exhalation phases, on a breath by breath basis, such that each PSA cycle can be dynamically varied from a succeeding PSA cycle, in real time in response to variations in the user's breathing cycle. An oxygen delivery device including a breathing cycle sensor provides breathing cycle inputs to a controller for use with at least one algorithm to detect breathing flow phases during each user breath, and to synchronize each PSA cycle to the user's breathing flow phases, on a breath-by-breath basis.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2021Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: Aires Medical LLCInventors: Nicholas L. Oddo, Peter D. Fitchen, Eugene H. Breniman

Patent number: 5321701Abstract: A minimal memory in-circuit digital tester with vector memory concentrated in a centralized vector processor circuit, eliminating the need for pin memory. The vector processor circuit memory is partitioned into two blocks, a pointer memory and a change list memory. Every vector clock cycle has one pointer memory entry. The pointer memory entry is an address for the change list memory. The change list memory contains lists of nodes used in the vector test sequence. Each change list entry contains a pin number and several control bits. The control bits define functions such as whether the pin will toggle its data or enable state, whether there are more pins in that particular change list, and whether the list or test has ended. When the end of each change list is reached, all pins that have been primed by that change list will be toggled. The next entry of the pointer memory is then selected which, in turn, selects another, or perhaps the same change list in the change list memory.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 1990Date of Patent: June 14, 1994Assignee: Teradyne, Inc.Inventors: Douglas W. Raymond, B. Karen McElfresh, Eugene H. Breniman

Patent number: 4856001Abstract: A digital in-circuit tester has a test-head controller which controls bursts of test vectors generated by a group of driver-receiver channels, the group of driver-receiver channels responsive to an erase instruction from test-head controller. At least one driver-receiver channel is adapted for nullifying the action of an erase instruction. The driver-receiver channel has a first memory for storing information which determines certain actions of the channel during the next burst of test vectors. The memory is responsive to the erase instruction for being erased.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 1987Date of Patent: August 8, 1989Assignee: Zehntel, Inc.Inventors: Barbara K. McElfresh, Eugene H.
