Appl. No.:

6/572322

Inventors:

James W. Davis - Boca Raton FL
Frank D. Jones - Wallkill NY

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

H03K 19086

H03K 19177
H01L 2710

US Classification:

307467

Abstract:

A bipolar transistor integrated circuit PLA is disclosed. The array includes a first and second mutually isolated epitaxial regions in a semiconductor substrate. A plurality of common collector bipolar transistors are formed in the first epitaxial region with selected ones of the plurality having their emitters connected in common to a first current source. A second plurality of common collector bipolar transistors in the second epitaxial region have the emitters of selected ones of the second plurality connected in common to the first epitaxial region. The bases of the corresponding pairs of transistors from the first and second epitaxial region are connected to an input signal source. The second epitaxial region is connected to an output node. In this manner, a cascode connected PLA is formed which eliminates the need for surplus current sources required in the prior art.

Appl. No.:

15/228275

Inventors:

Frank K. Jones - Atlanta GA, US

International Classification:

A61F 2/00

Abstract:

This disclosure relates generally to repair of defective hernias by use of a mesh material. However, inaccurate hernia defect measurements can cause ineffective treatment and a waste of mesh material. Therefore, accurate hernia defect measurements can aid in the effective treatment and repair of hernia defects.

Inventors:

Frank W. Jones - Pompano Beach FL, US

International Classification:

B65G 11/02

US Classification:

193 2 R

Abstract:

A chute for mounting on an elevated surface having a passageway extending from a first end to a second end, the first end having a flange for supporting the chute on an elevated surface, and engaging an edge of the elevated surface, to support the chute. The passageway has a slope such that soiled eating utensils placed within the chute will pass through the passageway and out the second end of the chute into a waiting receptacle such as a tub or bin to receive soiled utensils to be washed.
