Patent number: 9713432Abstract: A system comprises a cardiac signal sensing circuit and a processor circuit. To detect a QRS duration, the processor circuit determines an isoelectric amplitude value of the cardiac signal segment, identifies a time where the cardiac signal segment amplitude deviates from the first isoelectric amplitude value by a specified threshold deviation value as a Q time, determines an isoelectric value time after the determined maxima and minima times that the cardiac signal segment returns to the same or a different isoelectric amplitude value, identifies a time that follows both the determined maxima and minima times and precedes the isoelectric value time as an S time, wherein the cardiac signal segment amplitude at the identified S time satisfies a specified amplitude change criterion from an isoelectric amplitude value, and determines a time duration of the QRS complex in the cardiac signal segment using the identified Q and S times.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2012Date of Patent: July 25, 2017Assignee: Cardiac Pacemakers, Inc.Inventors: Abhilash Patangay, Shibaji Shome, Pramodsingh Hirasingh Thakur, Dan Li, Stevens L.

Patent number: 7922145Abstract: An adjustable support stand is mounted on a pre-cast concrete wall panel form to facilitate the leveling of the form and the support of the form about the production plant floor. The adjustable support stand includes a frame portion that houses a threaded rod positional fixed for rotation within the frame portion to drive a vertical movement of the leg member in response to rotation of the threaded rod. The adjustable support stand further includes a clamping apparatus that detachably mounts the frame portion to the flanges of a steel beam frame member. The actuator member can be a nut welded to the top of the threaded rod to affect movement of the engaged leg member in response to manipulation with a powered or manually operated hand tool, or a gear set and an orthogonal drive shaft that transfers rotation from a hand tool to the threaded rod.Type: GrantFiled: February 6, 2008Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: SWA Holding Company, Inc.Inventor: Steven L. Martin

Patent number: 6411531Abstract: A charge pump DC/DC converter with reduced noise at the input voltage source is provided. The present invention includes buck and boost DC/DC converters with added circuitry coupled between the input voltage and the switches which maintains a substantially constant input current on both phases of the charge pump clock. The added circuitry reduces input current variations to provide reduced noise at the input voltage source. Feedback loop circuitry coupled between the output node and the added circuitry varies the current through the switches to control the output current of the DC/DC converter in order to maintain the output voltage at the regulated value. The added circuitry may comprise a variable resistor, current mirror, or current mirrors.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2000Date of Patent: June 25, 2002Assignee: Linear Technology CorporationInventors: Samuel H.
