Abstract: A method for digitally calibrating, selectively during normal operation, a low-power reference signal generator adapted to develop an analog reference signal as a function of a digital control signal. In the feed-back loop, an ADC, referenced to a band-gap reference, is adapted to facilitate compensation for drift and other low-frequency errors that may develop in the field. This method can be applied to both voltage and current reference signal generators.

Abstract: A method for pre-loading a SAR ADC with an initial value for a selected range of high-order bits. If the ADC resolves at either an upper or a lower limit set by the pre-loaded value, the ADC may discard the pre-loaded value and perform a full search. Alternatively, the ADC may perform one or more “bonus steps” before giving up and performing a full search.

Abstract: One aspect of the invention provides a computer-implemented method of promoting patient compliance with one or more recommended screening regimens. The computer-implemented method includes: receiving one or more selected from the group consisting of: demographic information, patient history, and family history from a patient; obtaining a list of recommended screenings for patients having the demographic information, patient history, or family history pertaining to a patient; receiving at least one selected from the group consisting of: digital billing information and digital health information related to the patient; parsing the digital billing information or digital health information; and identifying whether a potential match exists between the one or more recommended screenings and the digital billing information or digital health information.

Abstract: A method is provided for analyzing debris events after a launch of a rocket-propelled vehicle. Radar and Doppler data of the launch of the rocket-powered vehicle is collected for a period of time. Atmospheric conditions are determined at the time of launch. A trajectory of the rocket-propelled vehicle is determined during ascent. The collected radar and Doppler data is aligned and calibrated. A first portion of the collected radar and Doppler data is processed with a first means for assessing and characterizing debris. In parallel with the first portion of the collected radar and Doppler data, a second portion of the collected radar and Doppler data is processed with a second means for assessing and characterizing debris. Assessed and characterized debris is identified that may be a threat to the vehicle. And, reports of the identified debris are generated.
