  • Monitoring apparatus and method
    Patent number: 12611124
    Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring blood oxygen saturation of a subject is provided. The apparatus includes a unit configured for wearing on the subject's upper arm, the unit comprising first and second light sources configured to emit light of first and second wavelengths and a photodetector configured to detect light of the first and second wavelengths, where the light sources are arranged to direct light into the upper arm and the photodetector is arranged to detect light reflected from within the upper arm.
    Type: Grant

  • Patterned filled layers for integrated circuit manufacturing
    Patent number: 5763955
    Abstract: A metal layer on an integrated circuit includes active signal lines and fill metal segments. The fill metal segments are polygons. Each fill metal segment at its narrowest has a width which is not greater than 1.25 times a design rule metal pitch for a technology used to fabricate the integrated circuit. In addition, each fill metal segment is separated from every other fill metal segment by spacing which is at least 0.7 times the design rule metal pitch for the technology used to fabricate the integrated circuit. Also, each fill metal segment is separated from every active signal line by spacing which is at least 0.5 times the design rule metal pitch for the technology used to fabricate the integrated circuit.
