  • Patent number: 7592919
    Abstract: A storage circuit arrangement for a semi-passive or passive RFID transponder is provided. In prior-art circuit arrangements, storage capacitors are routinely discharged in an undefined fashion via leakage currents for a control mode of the transponder, so that the persistence times depend greatly on the ambient temperature and on existing manufacturing tolerances. It is proposed according to an embodiment to charge a first electrical storage device with a first reference voltage and then to discharge it again in a defined fashion during a time t via discharge device. Advantageously, in addition a storage mode of the first storage device to hold the control mode can be transmitted in a controlled fashion via a switching device to a second storage device with C2<<C1 to shorten a settle time and to accelerate the anticollision.

  • Publication number: 20090207030
    Abstract: A device for evaluating a temperature measurement signal of a temperature measurement facility has a modeling unit with a first input for picking up an input signal which is indicative for the temperature measurement signal, a second input for picking up a feedback signal, and an output for outputting an output signal. The output signal can be generated in dependence on the input signal and the feedback signal by using a computational model stored in the modeling unit. The feedback signal (slope) is directly or indirectly dependent on the output signal. Furthermore, an alarm indicator with an evaluation device of this type and a method for evaluating a temperature measurement signal are provided. Alongside this, a computer-readable storage medium and also a program element are described, which contain instructions for carrying out the evaluation method.

  • Patent number: 7449544
    Abstract: The present invention relates to p21 derived peptides capable of inhibiting CDK/cyclin complexes, particularly cyclins A or E/CDK2, by modifying the interaction with their substrates. The peptides are derived from a C-terminal region of p21 and display selectivity for cyclin/CDK2 inhibition over cyclin/CDK4 inhibition. Variants of such peptides particularly involving certain alanine replacements are shown to be particularly potent.

  • Patent number: 7436286
    Abstract: A transponder receives its operating energy from an external source such as a radio signal or a battery. Such transponders are used for example in a vehicle or in a remote sensor. The response range of the transponder is increased by converting the received energy into an operating voltage which in turn is used to generate a function voltage required for performing a current function sequence. The generated function voltage is checked to determine at least one characteristic of the generated function voltage. The determined function voltage characteristic, for example a voltage value directly representing the function voltage, is then used to acknowledge or reject a result of performing the function sequence. Thus, the time duration for performing any current function sequence is flexibly adapted to the current requirements of that function sequence, whereby the power consumption of the transponder is optimally reduced and the response range respectively increased.
