Filed:

Mar 31, 1989

Appl. No.:

7/332317

Inventors:

Robin Moseley - Allentown PA
Joel S. Spira - Coopersburg PA
Arjuna Karunaratne - Santa Clara CA
John Wylie - Allentown PA
Jonathan A. Barney - Whitehall PA

Assignee:

Lutron Electronics Co., Inc. - Coopersburg PA

International Classification:

H02J 100

US Classification:

323324

Abstract:

A remotely controllable power control system wherein the power supplied to a load may be varied locally via an actuator, positionable through a continuous range, on a wall control or from a remote location using a remote control device not electrically wired to the wall control. The load control system includes a transmitter and a wall control/receiver, each having a control actuator for adjusting the power supplied to the load. Control can be obtained by either the transmitter or the wall control/receiver immediately upon manipulation of either control actuator, with the adjustment in power level occurring substantially instantaneously. Communication between the transmitter and the wall control/receiver is by digitally encoded infrared signal.

International Classification:

H01L 2330

US Classification:

134 29

Abstract:

Disclosed is a method of removing silicone rubber encapsulating material from micro-electronic circuits. The encapsulant is broken down molecularly and removed by a solution of tetramethyl-ammonium hydroxide which is diluted with an alcohol such as 2-propanol. It was found that this stripping solution causes minimal swelling of the encapsulant and leaves no significant residue which cannot be removed by standard rinsing.
