Abstract: The present invention relates to a deployment handle for a prosthesis delivery device and to a delivery device including such a handle. The handle assembly facilitates the controlled release of a prosthesis from the delivery device, while ensuring that various deployment steps are performed in a particular sequential order. The handle assembly comprises a main handle and a second handle which is rotatably and/or longitudinally moveable relative to the main handle. The second handle has an initial position on the main handle such that it prevents access to, and premature manipulation of, a proximal stent release mechanism, until the stent graft has been at least partially unsheathed.

Abstract: A surround of a diaphragm is provided. Its cross-section looks like a raise with an opening which opens downward. A bottom rim of the raise defines a virtual standard plane. The raise includes a compliance adjusting portion and two stress sharing portions. The compliance adjusting portion is sags and disposed centrally at the raise. The stress sharing portions sag and flank the compliance adjusting portion symmetrically. Linking portions are connected between the compliance adjusting portion and the stress sharing portions, respectively. The compliance adjusting portion and the stress sharing portions do not cross the virtual standard plane. Therefore, the compliance adjusting portion and the stress sharing portions share the stress sustained by the surround, so as to effectively reduce the variation in rigidity of the diaphragm while the diaphragm is vibrating and thus minimize harmonic distortion.

In this way, the assembly of the speaker requires relatively fewer jigs and the components of the speaker are easy to be combined coaxially.

The composite magnet has two magnetic poles with field directions thereof substantially perpendicular to each other, wherein one of the magnetic poles has the field direction thereof pointing to the iron core, and a magnetism-guiding plate being deposited on the other magnetic pole of the composite magnet and being separated from the iron core by a magnetic gap. Thereby, the composite magnet provides high magnetic flux density in relatively small volume, without the additional use of any magnetism-guiding yokes, and thus is particularly suitable for small-size amplifiers where it helps to improve acoustic sensitivity and acoustic output performance.

Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) and a method for controlling the PLL are provided. The PLL includes a phase detector, a charge pump, a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a feedback frequency divider, and a detector circuit. The phase detector generates a direction signal according to a comparison between phases of a first clock signal and a second clock signal. The charge pump converts the direction signal into a control voltage. The VCO generates a third clock signal. The control voltage controls a frequency of the third clock signal. The feedback frequency divider divides the frequency of the third clock signal to generate the second clock signal. The detector circuit sends a pulse signal to restart the VCO when the control voltage conforms to a preset condition.

Abstract: A circuit and a method for restarting up a VCO of a PLL are introduced herein. The VCO restart up circuit receives a power down signal, an external signal, a clock output from the VCO and generates a trigger signal to the VCO to trigger the VCO clock to leave a stable mode. In other words, if the VCO clock is in the stable mode, the VCO restart up circuit generates one or more than one pulse on a trigger signal to restart up the VCO. Oppositely, if the VCO is not in the stable mode, there is no pulse on the trigger signal generated by the VCO restart up circuit and the VCO needs not to be restarted up.
