Abstract: A device and method for performing Avalanche Mode Delta VsD testing of a semiconductor device under test (DUT), include a current source configured to provide energy in the form of a substantially non-decaying current to a DUT for heating of the DUT during an avalanche mode; and test circuitry electrically couplable to the current source and the DUT and configured to perform Avalanche Mode Delta VsD testing of the DUT.

Abstract: Various constructs that absorb exudates from a food item are provided.

Abstract: An apparatus for imparting rotary motion through a joint includes a pivotal portion which may freely pivot in two planes relative to a second portion. A rotatable shaft extends through the pivotal portion attaching to a constant velocity joint for translating rotational movement of the shaft into rotational movement of a second shaft. The pivotal portion is mounted to the second portion via a universal joint, with the constant velocity joint placed at the center of the universal joint, achieving high torque rotation.

Abstract: A multi-axial hand-operated helicopter control includes a pivotal arm which may freely pivot in two planes relative to a base member with collective and rudder control rods attached at the base of the pivoting arm member for translating motion along one plane into collective control and motion along another plane into rudder control. A rotatable throttle control mounts at an end of the arm member and a throttle shaft extends through the arm member attaching to a constant velocity joint for translating rotational movement of the throttle control into rotational movement of a base throttle rod. The pivotal arm member is mounted to a base member via a universal joint, with the constant velocity joint placed at the center of the universal joint, achieving high torque rotation.
