Abstract: A spacer that attaches to wire grids used in laying concrete block or similar type block. A number of spacers are used to lay out a pattern in the block. The spacers have fingers that extend upward from the spacers. These fingers are used to align the blocks, above and below, to assure that each course remains level, plumb and square, with the courses of block remaining in proper alignment throughout the construction.

Abstract: Aspects of a method and system for using one-time programmable (OTP) read-only memory (ROM) to configure chip usage features are presented. Aspects of the system may include a one time programmable (OTP) memory on a chip that is configured to enable control of access to on-chip functions provided by on-chip modules. The chip may enable conditional activation or deactivation of on-chip functions provided by the on-chip modules in response to reception of an external activation or deactivation request based on the contents of the configured OTP memory.

Abstract: An illumination device includes a housing and a lens disposed at the end of the housing. The lens is in watertight engagement with the housing and includes at least one LED disposed in the housing and for transmitting light through the lens. An infrared sensor is operatively connected to the electronic control unit for remotely operating the electronic control unit. The illumination device also includes a mounting disk and bracket for mounting to underwater surfaces, such as a pool, or a magnet for the same. An electronic driver unit regulates power to the LED module, thereby saving battery power.
