Publication number: 20240150906Abstract: An electrolytic cell includes a cation exchange membrane, a cathode compartment, and an anode compartment. The cathode compartment includes a gas diffusion electrode and a flow channel element, in which the flow channel element is between the cation exchange membrane and the gas diffusion electrode, and has a plurality of flow channels arranged in parallel with each other. The anode compartment includes an anode mesh, in which the cation exchange membrane is between the anode mesh and the flow channel element. A distance between the anode mesh and the gas diffusion electrode is substantially equal to the sum of a first thickness of the cation exchange membrane and a second thickness of the flow channel element. The novel electrolytic cell can combine with a chloralkali electrolytic cell to deal with gaseous CO2 and produce products, e.g., synthesis gas, for other purposes.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 9, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Hao-Ming CHEN, Tai-Lung CHEN, Wan-Tun HUNG, Yu-Cheng CHEN, Kuo-Ming HUANG, Fu-Da YEN, Che-Jui LIAO

Patent number: 7339822Abstract: A current-limited latch circuit is used within a nonvolatile memory integrated circuit for decoding, programming, erase, and other operations. In one implementation, there are a number of latches connected together in parallel between two power supply lines. A current mirroring scheme limits current supplied to the latch. This reduces a difference of the two supplies, positive voltage, ground, or negative voltages, during data changes. The circuit provides smaller device sizes and fast speeds when data changes in the latch, while also providing lower power consumption. The technique provides greater benefits as the voltage difference between the two power supplies is greater.Type: GrantFiled: December 6, 2002Date of Patent: March 4, 2008Assignee: SanDisk CorporationInventors: Chi-Ming Wang, Kuo-Lung Chen, Shouchang Tsao
