Quiescent current setting for an amplifier circuit - Patent 4868518 The quiescent input current I.sub.in flows from terminal 1 to terminal 2 and spreads over the two parallel-arranged circuits constituted by the transistors T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 through which a quiescent current I.sub.12 flows and constituted by the transistor T.sub.5 and the impedance R through which a quiescent current I.sub.r flows. The quiescent output current I.sub.out is dependent on the value of R and the value of I.sub.in and the gain factors of the four transistors T.sub.1 to T.sub.4. The transistor symmetry is maintained: the quiescent output current I.sub.out is insensitive to the values of the threshold voltages as long as transistors of the same conductivity type have the same threshold voltage, which is the case on an integrated circuit. www.freepatentsonline.com /4868518.html   (2007 words)

Dictionary.com/Word of the Day Archive/quiescent The solution, Dr. Wilmut discovered, was to, in effect, put the DNA from the adult cell to sleep, making it quiescent by depriving the adult cell of nutrients. The conflict then settled into a quiescent phase for several years. Quiescent derives from the present participle of Latin quiescere, to rest, from quies, rest. dictionary.reference.com /wordoftheday/archive/2003/04/24.html   (116 words)

Virology Journal | Full text | Functional inaccessibility of quiescent herpes simplex virus genomes The IE promoters residing in quiescent HSV genomes appear to be repressed rather than simply inactive, as they fail to respond to VP16 and several other stimuli that otherwise augment their activity [18]; however, they remain susceptible to activation by ICP0 or pp71 [18,23]. However, the intranuclear location of quiescent genomes has yet to be determined, and current evidence suggests that transcriptional activity is required for the association of viral genomes with ND10 [33]. Quiescent KM110-R genomes were not detectable prior to reactivation under the conditions used in our Southern blot assay; however the expected KM110-R signal was readily detected following genome amplification induced by super-infection with wild-type KOS (figure 2B). www.virologyj.com /content/2/1/85   (7388 words)

Read-Copy Update: Using Execution History to Solve Concurrency Problems This property of quiescent periods guarantees that any change made before the beginning of a quiescent period will be observed by all threads by the end of that quiescent period. Each CPU maintains a separate queue of callbacks awaiting the end of a later quiescent period (nxtlist) as well as the queue of callbacks awaiting the end of the current quiescent period (curlist). The set of quads that contain CPUs needing to pass through a quiescent state is tracked by rcc_needctxtmask, and the set of CPUs on a given quad needing to pass through a quiescent state is tracked by the per-quad variable pq_rcc_needctxtmask. www.rdrop.com /users/paulmck/rclock/intro/rclock_intro.html   (5744 words)

Quiescent Search Essentially, a quiescent search is an evaluation function that takes into account some dynamic possibilities. If it were possible to make a more accurate quiescent search with no loss in speed, I'm sure that a program would be stronger than it was before.

Spaceflight Now | Breaking News | Flares illuminate the secret life of a quiescent black hole Astronomers probing the intimate details of apparently quiescent stellar fl holes have discovered that in reality they are dynamic, lively places, subject to flares that briefly illuminate the whole of the gas disc around the fl hole. Their observations are helping to build up a picture of precisely where X-rays are generated in the gas as it heats up to extreme temperatures and swirls around under incredible gravitational forces before cascading into the fl hole itself. In these quiescent fl hole binary stars the companion star is actually brighter than the gas falling into the fl hole. www.spaceflightnow.com /news/n0204/21blackhole   (1028 words)

Quiescent T cells: actively maintaining inactivity - Nature Immunology   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06) Quiescent T lymphocytes are characterized by small cell size, lack of spontaneous proliferation and low metabolic rate. Until recently, the quiescent state of T lymphocytes was thought to be due to lack of stimulation by proliferation signals. Tob actively maintains the quiescent state of T lymphocytes, however, anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 turn off expression of the gene encoding Tob and thus relieve repression of IL-2, promoting T cell activation. www.nature.com /cgi-taf/DynaPage.taf?file=/ni/journal/v2/n12/full/ni1201-1097.html   (1357 words)

Build a Charge Pump with Ultra-Low Quiescent Current (Iq) - Maxim/Dallas Portable, battery-powered devices often spend most of their life in standby mode, where the quiescent current of an internal boost converter bleeds the battery continuously. The quiescent current during standby can be larger than the actual load current. Off-the-shelf regulated charge pumps with output-current capabilities >10mA have typical minimum quiescent currents of 50 to 100µA. If that level of quiescent current is not acceptable, you can reduce the overall average by adding circuitry that monitors the regulated voltage remotely and toggles the charge pump in and out of shutdown. www.maxim-ic.com /appnotes.cfm/appnote_number/3330   (700 words)

Last check: 2007-11-06) The c-met receptor tyrosine kinase was also monitored because it is a candidate for mediating activation of quiescent satellite cells (Allen et al., 1995) and because it might also be a candidate molecular marker for satellite cells. We show here that c-met receptor is present beneath the basal lamina on presumptive satellite cells in intact muscle and that c-met mRNA and protein are expressed by all myofiber-associated satellite cells from the time of explant through the course of activation, proliferation, and differentiation. When compared directly with m-cadherin, which has previously been suggested as a marker for quiescent satellite cells, m-cadherin mRNA was detected only in a small subset of satellite cells at early times after myofiber explant. www.ingentaconnect.com /content/ap/db/1997/00000191/00000002/art08721   (562 words)

Adjusting the Bias Of Your Amp [English] The other is routinely used to adjust the bias or quiescent current - the amount of current used by output stage transistors so as to keep them "open" or conducting even under no signal conditions. The quiescent current is obtained by dividing the voltage with the resistance, i.e. Its original quiescent current was set at 100 mA per transistor, for a total of 200 mA per channel; it now runs at double that, or 400 mA per channel. www.tnt-audio.com /clinica/bias_e.html   (3283 words)

Protein Regulates Quiescent Blood Stem Cells MEF-deficient mice accumulated quiescent HSCs with the capacity for repopulation and demonstrated enhanced resistance to the effects of chemotherapeutic drugs and radiation, which is also seen in wild-type mice transplanted with MEF-deficient HSCs. These results suggest that MEF regulates HSCs' decision to remain quiescent or divide, and the researchers speculate that treatments to diminish MEF may improve recovery from chemotherapy and radiation. However, it is important to point out that while reduced expression of MEF might enhance recovery after myelosuppression, it is possible that certain leukemic stem cells may also be protected from these same treatments. www.cancercompass.com /cancer-news/1,10554,00.htm   (523 words)
