Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing modular exponentiation is disclosed. An apparatus in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention includes a first modular exponentiator and a second modular exponentiator and a coupling device interposed between the first modular exponentiator and the second modular exponentiator to receive a control signal and to selectively couple the first modular exponentiator to the second modular exponentiator in response to a state of the control signal. In one embodiment, the apparatus has a first mode of operation corresponding to a first state of the control signal wherein the first modular exponentiator is operably separated from the second modular exponentiator and a second mode of operation corresponding to a second state of the control signal wherein the first modular exponentiator is operably coupled to the second modular exponentiator via the coupling device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus comprising initializing a circuit, said circuit having at least one memory element coupled to a memory bus, on a host system (e.g., a computer system). Monitoring signals on the memory bus of the host system, detecting a first sequence of signals, and switching control of the at least one memory element to the circuit coupled to the memory bus on the host system. The method and apparatus further comprises detecting a second sequence of signals, and switching control of the at least one memory element to the host system.

Abstract: A connector for a coaxial cable has a central conductor adapted to be connected to the central conductor of a coaxial connector. A first insulator is fixedly held on a central conductor and has an outwardly extending ridge. A pair of other insulators are held in abutting relationship in an outer conductor assembly, the other insulators defining a recess receiving the ridge of the first insulator. The assembly of the central conductor at first insulator may be axially snapped into the assembly of the other insulators and outer conductor.

Abstract: A connector end assembly for an angle plug connector used with coaxial cables is disclosed. The assembly includes a one-piece hexagonal body which includes a front portion extending beyond a compression spring which is captured between the bayonet sleeve and body. The projecting portion is deformed against a flat portion to capture the compression spring.

Abstract: A connector for coaxial cables is disclosed in which the sub-assemblies are changed. Reduction in numerous machining operations required to form the elements of the sub-combinations have resulted in a less expensive connector which may be assembled automatically.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to intermatable connector bodies for splicing coaxial cables. Each connector body is identical with the other and includes an outer conductive sleeve providing an outer receptacle and an outwardly projecting tongue which is intermatable with the outer receptacle of the other connector body. The outer shell of each connector body contains a dielectric having a coaxial bore in which is mounted a sleeve form inner receptacle provided with a projecting crimp sleeve which is secured, by crimping, to a coaxial cable center conductor which passes through the inner receptacle. Each inner receptacle matingly receives the crimping sleeve of another receptacle to establish an electrical splice of the respective center conductors of a pair of coaxial cables.
