Abstract: A secure system having a Trusted Platform Module coupled between a peripheral device and a host. In operation, the Trusted Platform Module is provided to control communication between the peripheral device and the host.

Abstract: The hand-held air blower has a hollow, substantially cylindrical housing with an open front end, a plurality of air intake openings, an impeller situated within the housing proximate the intake openings, a motor for driving the impeller, and battery means for powering the motor. A concentrator attachment is designed for use with the blower. The concentrator has means for removably attaching the concentrator to the open front end of the blower housing and a hollow shell. The shell includes an intake section with a diameter substantially equal to the diameter of the front end of the housing and an outlet section with an outlet opening substantially smaller than the diameter of the front end of the housing. A truncated football-like shaped balancing member is provided. The balancing member has a central air flow channel.

Abstract: A method for making an IC package with transparent encapsulant includes providing a leadframe, where the leadframe includes a first die pad and a second die pad, disposing a first die on the first die pad and a second die on the second die pad, forming a cavity on the leadframe, where the cavity includes the first die pad and the second die pad, injecting an encapsulant material into the cavity and cutting the injected encapsulant material and the leadframe to form a first IC package and a second IC package. The encapsulant material is transparent for visible wavelengths. The injection of the encapsulant material is performed at an encapsulant temperature ranging from 140° C. to 160° C.

Abstract: IC package with transparent encapsulant and method for making thereof. The IC package includes a die pad including a pad bottom surface, a die disposed on the die pad and including an integrated circuit, a plurality of leads including a plurality of lead bottom surfaces, a plurality of conductive wires connecting the die and the plurality of leads, and an encapsulant material. The encapsulant material is transparent for visible wavelengths. The pad bottom surface is exposed without being covered by the encapsulant material, and the plurality of lead bottom surfaces each are exposed without being covered by the encapsulant material.
