  • Patent number: 11207987
    Abstract: A charging arrangement for an electric vehicle having a traction battery is disclosed having a power supply station connected to a power network and a power supply cable with charging plug. In order to perform a charging process, the charging plug is connected to the electric vehicle in which a voltage converter is arranged in the charging plug to convert the supply voltage UV into a charging voltage UL, which is lower relative thereto, and a method for operating the charging arrangement.

  • Publication number: 20070255166
    Abstract: A medical device for implantation within a patient comprising a lead body including a conductor within the lead body and a transducer supported by the lead body. The conductor is electrically coupled to the transducer by a conductive fluid, paste or gel. The conductive fluid, paste or gel may be contained within a well in the lead body. The transducer may be a MEMS chip and/or an integrated circuit and may perform any of a variety of functions such as sensing physiological data.

  • Publication number: 20070160748
    Abstract: Media-exposed interconnects for transducer modules are disclosed. The transducers may be sensing transducers, actuating transducers, IC-only transducers, or combinations thereof, or other suitable transducers. The transducers may be used in connection with implantable medical devices and may be exposed to various media, such as body fluids. The media-exposed interconnects for transducer modules may allow transducers to communicate electrically with other components, such as implantable medical devices.
