US Classification:

331175, 331 1 R, 331 16, 331177 R, 331183

Abstract:

In one embodiment, a signal control system has a signal output and includes: 1) a phase-locked loop (PLL) having a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), a phase error detector, an oscillating output coupled to the signal output of the signal control system, and a programmable frequency divider coupled in a feedback path between the oscillating output and the phase error detector; 2) at least one automatic level controller (ALC), coupled to the oscillating output; and 3) a plurality of switchable integrators, including first and second switchable integrators that are respectively coupled between the phase error detector and the VCO, and in the at least one ALC. Each of the switchable integrators is switchable between a narrow bandwidth mode that provides for stable operation of the signal control system, and a wide bandwidth mode that enables fast signal transitions at the signal output.

International Classification:

C07H 1910
C07H 1920

US Classification:

536 261

Abstract:

The invention provides a method of synthesizing oligonucleotide N3'. fwdarw. P5' phosphoramidates using an amine-exchange reaction of phosphoramidites in which a -deprotected 3'-amino group of a solid phase supported oligonucleotide chain is exhanged for the amino portion of a 5'-phosphoramidite of an incoming monomer which has a protected 3'-amino group. The resulting internucleotide phosphoramidite linkage is then oxidized to form a stable protected phosphoramidate linkage. The method of the invention greatly improves product yields and reduces reagent usage over currently available methods for synthesizing the above class of compound.

US Classification:

320101, 3406861

Abstract:

Described herein are various technologies pertaining to provision of energy to a rechargeable battery of a mobile electronic device. The mobile electronic device has an array of photovoltaic cells embedded therein or affixed thereto. The array of photovoltaic cells is electrically connected to the rechargeable battery of the mobile electronic device. A charging pad includes an array of optical emitters, which are configured to emit light when the mobile electronic device rests on or adjacent to the charging pad. A remotely situated light source acts as a luminaire and emits a directed beam of light towards the mobile electronic device to provide energy to the rechargeable battery.
