3727 results about "Electrical element" patented technology

Electrical elements are conceptual abstractions representing idealized electrical components, such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors, used in the analysis of electrical networks. All electrical networks can be analyzed as multiple electrical elements interconnected by wires. Where the elements roughly correspond to real components the representation can be in the form of a schematic diagram or circuit diagram. This is called a lumped-element circuit model. In other cases infinitesimal elements are used to model the network, in a distributed-element model.

Self-regulating transcutaneous energy transfer

A rechargeable battery system and method are disclosed, in which an implantable medical device (IMD) regulates its transfer of energy from a separate charger unit. For recharging, a charger unit is brought into proximity to the implanted device. An oscillating current is generated in a primary coil, located in the charger. By inductive coupling through an oscillating magnetic field, an alternating current is generated in a secondary coil, which is implanted in or near the implanted device. The alternating current then passes through a half-wave or full-wave rectifier to form a one-sided current, then passes through a regulator to form an essentially direct current, which is in turn directed to the rechargeable battery in the implanted device. The secondary coil has a controllable damped resonant frequency, which can be dynamically tuned away from the driving frequency of the primary coil by a variable resistor and/or by varying a duty cycle of a rapidly switched electrical element. If a control loop in the implant senses that more power is being received at the second coil than is actually being used to recharge the battery, the control loop temporarily changes the variable resistance. When this happens, the resonant frequency of the secondary coil is detuned slightly away from the driving frequency, so that less of the incoming power is absorbed by the secondary coil. Alternatively, the secondary coil may be temporarily short-circuited. With less or no excess power entering the circuitry of the implant, the problem of overheating is mitigated.

Transformers, balanced-unbalanced transformers (baluns) and Integrated circuits including the same

A transformer of fully symmetric structure includes a primary coil assembly and a secondary coil assembly. The primary coil assembly includes a plurality of primary coils formed in a plurality of metal layers, and a first interlayer connection unit for connecting the primary coils. The secondary coil assembly includes a plurality of secondary coils formed in the plurality of metal layers, and a second interlayer connection unit for connecting the secondary coils. The primary and secondary coils formed in the same metal layer are concentric and axisymmetric with respect to a diameter line passing through a planar center point. A balanced-unbalanced transformer (balun) is a type of transformer that may be used to convert an unbalanced signal to a balanced one or vice versa. An integrated circuit may include a semiconductor substrate and a transformer. Electrical elements such as transistors may be formed on the semiconductor substrate.
