  • Method for testing the tightness of water conducting components in a housing
    Patent number: 9188501
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of an indicator for testing the tightness of water conducting components in a housing which is either mixed into the water or released upon contacting water drops or generated from a generative material upon contact with water. According to the invention, the presence of the indicator in gaseous or vaporous form is detected by a sensor.
    Type: Grant

  • Sensor element placement for package stress compensation
    Patent number: 8132465
    Abstract: Circuits, methods, and systems that calibrate or account for packaging and related stress components in a pressure sensor. Further examples provide an improved sensor element or device. One example provides one or more sensing elements on the diaphragm and near the diaphragm-bulk boundary. Sensors near the diaphragm-bulk are used to estimate package-induced stress. This estimation can then be used in calibrating package stress from pressure measurements.

  • Method and apparatus for changing the length of a laser pulse
    Patent number: 7822093
    Abstract: The apparatus for extending or lengthening a laser pulse has a beam splitter. An incident laser pulse is split by the beam splitter into at least one first partial pulse and a second partial pulse. The first partial pulse is conducted through a delaying travel path section with a number of reflectors. The apparatus is characterized by a plurality of the variable delaying travel path sections which produce different length laser beam pulses from a single incident laser pulse.
