Abstract: The present invention relates to a modified multiple choice testing system using the computer and the method of the same. The test questions are displayed on the screen without the options. The options of the question are presented on the screen contingent upon the student's mouse click. They remain on the screen for a pre-determined duration. The student is allowed to make a selection within that time period. When the time is over, the options disappear from the screen and the test question type test taker can no longer answer the question. This invention will serve as an accurate and reliable assessment tool.

Abstract: A serial flash memory is provided with multiple configurable pins, at least one of which is selectively configurable for use in either single-bit serial data transfers or multiple-bit serial data transfers. In single-bit serial mode, data transfer is bit-by-bit through a pin. In multiple-bit serial mode, a number of sequential bits are transferred at a time through respective pins. The serial flash memory may have 16 or fewer pins, and even 8 or fewer pins, so that low pin count packaging such as the 8-pin or 16-pin SOIC package and the 8-contact MLP/QFN/SON package may be used. The availability of the single-bit serial type protocol enables compatibility with a number of existing systems, while the availability of the multiple-bit serial type protocol enables the serial flash memory to provide data transfer rates, in systems that can support them, that are significantly faster than available with standard serial flash memories.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the compounds generating strong acids (described hereafter as “acid generators”) decomposed by heat and the composition of thin film containing the same. Provided are the compounds represented by the structure of formula I and the composition containing the compounds. wherein X is alkyl or aryl group and R is hydrogen atom, hydroxy, alkoxy or alkyl group. The abovementioned acid generators of the present invention generate acid by heat at relatively low temperatures, preventing the change in the ratio of the composition due to evaporation of some components in the composition. Accordingly, it has the advantageous effect that the ratio of components in the composition is controlled and the preparation of the thin film with the wanted properties is simplified.

In the package sheet for a Surface Acoustic Wave filter package, an outline pattern is formed along outer peripheries of predetermined areas to be mounted with a plurality of SAW filter chips. The outline pattern is contacted with a metal shield layer formed on the SAW filter chips and a predetermined region of the package sheet. Circular anti-bur holes cover the corners of the areas to be mounted with the SAW filter chips and are intersected by cutting lines functioning as reference lines for cutting the sheet into a plurality of SAW filter packages.
