  • Patent number: 10466503
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide an optical image stabilization circuit that synchronizes its gyroscope and drive circuit using gyroscope data ready signals and gyroscope reset signals. In response to a gyroscope data ready signal, the optical image stabilization circuit synchronously obtains position measurements of a camera lens when power drive signals are not transitioning from one power level to another power level, and synchronously transitions the power drive signals simultaneously with gyroscope reset signals. By synchronizing the gyroscope and the drive circuit, the gyroscope and other onboard sensing circuits are isolated from noise generated by the drive circuit.

  • Publication number: 20180002383
    Abstract: The present application relates to a method for diagnosing a glucose transporter type 1 (GLUT1) deficiency syndrome that utilizes polypeptides derived from the soluble part of the glycoprotein of the enveloped virus of primate T-cell leukemia virus (PTLV). The polypeptides, named receptor binding domain ligands (RBD), are selected for their ability to bind specifically to GLUT1. The method involves determining the level of GLUT 1 expression at the cell surface and comparing the level to a reference value.

  • Patent number: 9436190
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus selecting settings for circuits according to various aspects of the present invention may operate in conjunction with a measurement element connected to the circuit. The circuit may include a voltage source adapted to supply a voltage to the measurement element. The voltage may be substantially independent of the characteristics of the measurement element. The circuit may further include a measurement sensor responsive to a current in the measurement element. The measurement sensor may generate a control signal according to the current in the measurement element.

  • Patent number: 9432004
    Abstract: Gain offset and voltage offset compensation for a controllable gain element of a circuit is effected in response to a gain offset value and voltage offset value. A current operating condition of the circuit is sensed and compared to a nominal operating condition. If the current operating condition is outside the nominal operating condition by more than a threshold, a calibration operation to set the gain and voltage offset values is performed. The gain offset value is selected as a function of the sensed current operating condition. With respect to the voltage offset, differential input terminals of the controllable gain element are shunted and the output is measured. The measured output value of the controllable gain element is applied as the voltage offset value. The operating conditions at issue may be one or more of supply voltage and temperature.

  • Patent number: 7947452
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of oligonucleotides from the nucleotide sequences coding for the amino-terminal region of the surface component (SU) of envelope proteins of PTLV viruses in order to perform methods of detecting every PTLV strain or PTLV-related viruses, e.g. for the detection of novel PTLV variants or viruses comprising sequences related to PTLV SUs. The invention also relates to primer pairs which are used to perform said detection methods and the novel PTLV variants thus detected.
