Abstract: A controller is used with an anodic bonding system that has a charge flowpath for supplying charge to bond materials together. The controller includes a switch and a circuit. The switch is configured to control a flow of the charge through the charge flowpath. The circuit is configured to monitor a rate of the flow, use the rate to determine an amount of the charge supplied for bonding, and based on the amount or rate, operate the switch to control the flow.

Abstract: A remote monitor controller decodes image data destined for a display associated to the controller, and continuously shows the image on the display until another image is provided to the controller. An image generating device, such as a personal computer, provides image data to as many displays as desired. The personal computer sends the image data to a controller associated with each display. The controller then formats the image to be shown on the display, and sits in an endless loop until another image is provided to it. Depending on the speed of the computer network, a range of options is available, from nearly static images that don't often change to full motion video on all of the displays. The controller includes an input module that receives a stream of digital data, a microcontroller that converts the digital data into image display data and stores it into a video RAM, and an output module that sends the stored image to the associated display.
