  • Publication number: 20060176626
    Abstract: An ESD power clamp utilizes both a transient triggering method integrated together with a voltage level detection circuit to disable a MOSFET transistor forming the ESD power clamp unless the voltage level on a relevant power supply rail is higher than a predetermined level above the normal power supply voltage. When the voltage level of the power supply rail is higher than the predetermined level (e.g., 10% higher, 25% higher, etc.), then the power surge is presumed to be an ESD pulse, and thus the ESD power clamp is enabled to turn ON and discharge the ESD power surge.

  • Patent number: 6805938
    Abstract: A building construction panel made of cellulosic fiberboard, comprising cementitious bands of a reinforcing material, which are applied via spraying, as the panel is being conveyed, so as to cover a minor portion of the overall area of a given one of the expansive surfaces, wherein the panel is devoid of the reinforcing material except at the bands. The bands include two diagonal bands, each of which extends between diagonally opposite corners of the given one of the expansive surfaces, two longitudinal bands, each of which extends along a respective one of the longitudinal edges of the given one of the expansive surfaces, and two transverse bands, each of which extends along a respective one of the transverse edges of the given one of the expansive surfaces.
