Abstract: An integrated circuit is disclosed. The integrated circuit includes a plurality of bit-cells arranged to store data. The integrated circuit also includes a sensor configured to generate an output for determining whether the bit-cells are operating at a process corner. The sensor comprises the same circuitry as the bit-cells.

Abstract: A write-assisted memory includes a pre-charge assist circuit that assists the pre-charge of the power supply voltage on a power supply lead for an accessed memory cell in a bit-line-multiplexed group of memory cells subsequent to a write-assist period by coupling charge from the power supply leads for the remaining non-accessed memory cells in the bit-line-multiplexed group of memory cells.

Abstract: Various integrated circuits and methods of operating the integrated circuits are disclosed. The integrated circuit may include a circuit having one or more electrical parameters resulting from process variations during the manufacture of the integrated circuit, and a voltage source configured to supply a voltage to the circuit to power the circuit, wherein the voltage source is further configured to adjust the voltage as a function of the one or more electrical parameters.

Abstract: A Continuous Ambulatory Hemofilter includes an outer casing, multifunction pump, hemofilter, reverse osmosis filter, power source, drainage bag, blood lines and fluid lines, characterized in that the hemofiltrate from the hemofilter is moved to a reverse osmosis filter. The ultrafiltrate fluid from the reverse osmosis filter flows to the out-flow tube of the hemofilter vein line through a dedicated fluid line. The exit of the reverse osmosis filter is connected to a drainage bag. The multifunction pump moves blood from a permanent jugular catheter to the hemofilter, and fluids between the hemofilter, reverse osmosis filter, vein line and drainage bag. An electrode is placed at the in-flow tube of the hemofilter to measure incoming blood osmolality. The electrode is connected to a microprocessor that is further connected to a computer-controlled valve at the out-flow line of the reverse osmosis filter. The microprocessor is connected with a memory card.

Abstract: A Continuous Ambulatory Haemofiltration consisting of an outer casing, multifunction pump, haemofilter, reversed osmosis filter, power source, drainage bag, blood lines and fluid lines, characterized in that the haemofiltrate from the haemolfilter is moved to a reversed osmosis filter. The ultrafiltrate fluid from the reversed osmosis filter flows to the out-flow tube of the haemofilter veineus line through a specific fluid line. The exit of the reversed osmosis filter is connected to a drainage bag. The multifunction pump moves blood from the jagular perm catherter to the haemofilter, and fluids between the haemofilter, reversed osmosis filter, veineus line and drainage bag. An electrode is placed at the in-flow tube of the haemofilter to measure incoming blood osmolality. The electrode is connected to a microprocessor that is further connected to a computer-controlled valve at the out-flow line of the reversed osmosis filter.
