Abstract: A control device for an internal combustion engine includes an internal combustion engine and a valve opening-closing timing control device. The valve opening-closing timing control device has a phase adjustment mechanism for setting a relative rotation phase of a driving-side rotator and a driven-side rotator. The phase adjustment mechanism overlaps a timing of opening an intake valve with a timing of opening an exhaust valve, by setting, in a predetermined period, the relative rotation phase such that the exhaust valve closes after a top dead center position has been reached, and a bypass passage is provided that connects an exhaust passage of one cylinder that is in an exhaust process to the exhaust passage of another cylinder that is in an intake process at the same time as the exhaust process.

Abstract: Examples of a package for a flange mount device are described. In one example, the package includes a thermally conductive base, a base substrate, and a lid having a cavity. The base substrate includes a through hole and radio frequency (RF) input, RF output, and bias traces that extend to a perimeter of the through hole. The lid includes a cavity and RF input coupling, RF output coupling, and bias coupling traces. A device can be secured to the thermally conductive base, and the lid can be secured to the thermally conductive base, with the base substrate secured between the lid and the thermally conductive base, coupling the traces of the base substrate to the traces of the lid. Other components, such as biasing, blocking, and bypassing components can be easily integrated into the package. Impedance matching and electromagnetic shielding components can also be easily integrated into the package.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a first directional coupler, a second directional coupler, a first detector, and a second detector. A through port of the first directional coupler is coupled to a through port of the second directional coupler. An isolated port of the first directional coupler is coupled to an isolated port of the second directional coupler. A coupled port of the first directional coupler is coupled to the first detector. A coupled port of the second directional coupler is coupled to the second detector. A detected power signal is generated by combining an output of the first detector and an output of the second detector.
