Abstract: A voltage transformation circuit comprising a first input, a second input, a first output, first and second impedances and a current mirror having master and slave terminals, wherein the first impedance is connected between the first input and the master terminal of the current mirror, the second impedance is connected between the second input and the slave terminal of the current mirror, and the first output is connected to the slave terminal of the current mirror.

Abstract: A process for reducing Ag electromigration in electronic circuitry includes the step of treating the electronic circuitry with an electromigration resistant composition. This process is useful in fabricating electronic devices having electronic circuitry that is close together, such as resistors, capacitors, and displays, e.g., a plasma display panel (PDP) or a liquid crystal display (LCD).

Abstract: Curable compositions contain (i) a free radical polymerizable organosilicon monomer, oligomer or polymer; (ii) an organoborane amine complex; optionally (iii) an amine reactive compound having amine reactive groups; and optionally (iv) a component capable of generating a gas when mixed with a compound bearing active hydrogen and a catalyst. The curable compositions can be used as a rubber, tape, adhesive, foam, pressure sensitive adhesive, protective coating, thin film, thermoplastic monolithic molded part, thermosetting monolithic molded part, sealant, gasket, seal, or o-ring, die attachment adhesive, lid sealant, encapsulant, potting compound, or conformal coating. The compositions can also be used in composite articles of manufacture such as integrally bonded device including electrical and electronic connectors and scuba diving masks, in which substrates are coated or bonded together with the composition and cured.

Abstract: A method includes the steps of: A) filling a silicone mold having a patterned surface with a curable (meth)acrylate formulation, B) curing the curable (meth)acrylate formulation to form a patterned feature, C) separating the silicone mold and the patterned feature, optionally D) etching the patterned feature, and optionally E) repeating steps A) to D) reusing the silicone mold. The curable (meth)acrylate formulation contains a fluorofunctional (meth)acrylate, a (meth)acrylate, and a photoinitiator.

Abstract: A composition comprising (A) at least one compound having at least one aliphatic unsaturation; (B) at least one organohydrogensilicon compound containing at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom per molecule and (C) a platinum group metal-containing catalyst.

Abstract: A method comprising heating in the presence of a catalyst, a mixture comprising (i) a reaction product obtained by mixing in the presence of a platinum group metal-containing catalyst at least one organohydrogensilicon compound containing at least one silicon-bonded hydrogen atom per molecule and at least one compound having at least one aliphatic unsaturation; (ii) at least one endblocker, and optionally (iii) at least one organosiloxane chosen from a hydrolyzate or a cyclosiloxane, so to cause polymerization of components (i), (ii), and optionally (iii) to form branched polymers.
