Abstract: The device and method according to the invention are used to transfer an electronic ferromagnetic component from a carrier to a substrate using a magnetic assembly. The magnetic assembly is designed and arranged to aid in the correct positioning of the at least partly ferromagnetic electronic component on the substrate. The magnetic field generated by the magnetic assembly produces a magnetic force oriented from the carrier towards the substrate, said magnetic force aiding the transfer of the component from the carrier to the substrate such that a significantly increased positioning accuracy of the component is achieved compared to a transfer without said magnetic force.

Abstract: Methods pattern a sacrificial material on an etch mask into mandrels using optical mask lithography, form a conformal material and a fill material on the mandrels, and planarize the fill material to the level of the conformal material. Such methods pattern the fill material into first mask features using extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. These methods partially remove the conformal material to leave the conformal material on the sidewalls of the mandrels as second mask features. Spaces between the first mask features and the second mask features define an etching pattern. The spacing distance of the mandrels is larger than the spacing distance of the second mask features. Such methods transfer the etching pattern into the etch mask material, and subsequently transfer the etching pattern into an underlying layer. Openings in the underlying layer are filled with a conductor to form wiring in the etching pattern.

Abstract: In a method for determining loading of a bearing supporting a rotor of an electrical machine, the rotational speed and angular acceleration of the rotor is determined, matrix elements of a matrix are assigned to respective ranges of the angular acceleration and to respective ranges of the rotational speed, when the electrical machine is operated in a respective range of the angular acceleration and the rotational speed corresponding to the respective matrix element for a predefined time unit, an elementary variable, for example a value of 1, is added to the respective matrix element, and the loading of the bearing is determined as a weighted sum of the matrix elements. Thus, the matrix forms a representation of the operating time of the bearing and of the service life over time in relation to the rotational speeds and angular accelerations. The loading can be shown on a display.

Abstract: A method for coding image information includes generating prediction information by predicting information on a current coding unit, and determining whether the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information. When the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is the same as the prediction information is coded and transmitted. When the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information, a flag indicating that the information on the current coding unit is not the same as the prediction information and the information on the current coding unit are coded and transmitted. At the generating of the prediction information, the prediction information is generated by using the information on the coding unit neighboring to the current coding unit.
