摘要： A "zener-zap" memory cell with pretest capability for testing effects that would be realized from permanently programming the memory cell is provided. The memory cell is addressable and provides a binary signal at an output. The memory cell uses a zener diode as a memory element which is permanently programmed when selectively coupled to a programming voltage which exceeds the reverse breakdown voltage of the zener diode. The memory cell has a test circuit for generating the programmed binary signal at the output of the memory cell prior to permanently programming the zener diode and when coupled to a pretest voltage.

摘要： A stackable voltage comparator circuit that may be used in an analog voltage address decoder circuit for performing voltage window comparisons. The voltage comparator circuit includes a plurality of voltage comparator circuit cells, each of which includes a differential input stage made up of a pair of transistors which receives a current source. A first comparator circuit cell includes a differential input pair of transistors with one of the transistors having a first collector and a second collector, with the second collector being coupled to an output line. The first comparator circuit cell compares an input window with a first threshold voltage and produces an output at the output line. A second comparator circuit cell compares the input voltage with a second threshold voltage and includes a second differential input pair of transistors. The second comparator circuit cell has an input coupled to the output line of the first comparator circuit for receiving current when the input voltage is less than the first threshold voltage and provides an output indicative of whether the input voltage is within a voltage window bounded by the first and second threshold voltages.

摘要： A pressure sensor includes a three part package including a housing member defining two spaced-apart chambers, a bottom member providing the bottom wall of one of the chambers, and a top cover member hermetically sealing the two chambers from one another and including a port for admission of gases into one of the chambers. A pressure sensing element is disposed in the chamber having the port and mounted on the bottom member, and a signal processing element is mounted in the other chamber. Electrical connections between the two elements are by means of leads which extend into each chamber and pass through a wall separating the chambers. A low temperature differential between the two elements is provided by extending one of the leads from the other one chamber to a position directly underlying and in intimate contact with the bottom surface of the processing element in the other chamber. Additionally, the bottom member is of a high thermal conductivity material and extends along the bottom of the housing member to beneath the other chamber.

摘要： In accordance with the teachings of the present invention, a programmable integrated transducer amplifier circuit is provided which receives differential outputs from a transducer, such as a pressure or accelerometer transducer. The programmable integrated transducer amplifier circuit includes binary adjustable circuits that are programmed in response to binary coded signals. The binary adjustable circuits generate binary weighted currents that are employed to adjust the operating characteristics of the amplifier circuit. The binary coded signals are received from a programmable memory array which includes a plurality of memory cells that store binary information. Each of the memory cells are programmed when coupled to a programming signal. Additionally, the memory array has pretest capability for testing outputs of the memory cells prior to permanently programming the respective memory cells. Additionally, the integrated transducer amplifier circuit automatically compensates for variations in the operating temperature of the amplifier circuit. The method of temperature compensation is accomplished by operating the programmable integrated transducer amplifier circuit at a first temperature such that a temperature compensation voltage is "nulled" or is forced to equal zero. Thereafter, the integrated transducer amplifier circuit is operated at other temperatures such that the temperature compensation voltage is generated in a manner representing the difference between the first operating temperatures and the current operating temperature.

摘要： A bipolar integrated circuit differential voltage to current converter comprises a current source and a current sink at a lower current with two parallel branches connected therebetween. Each branch comprises, from the current source, a resistor, an input transistor with an emitter connected to the resistor and a mirror transistor with an emitter connected to the current sink. The resistors have equal resistance; the input transistors have bases comprising a differential voltage input; and the mirror transistors are connected in a current mirror arrangement. An output current is taken from the junction the resistor and the emitter of the input transistor connected thereto on the output side of the mirror so as to allow the current mirror to maintain equal currents and thus equal base/emitter voltages in the input transistors. A demand current sink transistor is connected in series with the current source with a base connected to the current sink so as to take excess current from the current source not taken by the current sink and current output and thus maintain the currents through the input transistors low for minimal input loading.

摘要： A leak-testing technique and apparatus for differential pressure sensor arrays is provided. A reference pressure sensor array is provided, wherein a seal is disposed between the reference pressure sensor array and a target differential pressure sensor array. A probe socket is utilized to communicate with each individual sensor in the reference pressure sensor array. The target pressure sensor array and the reference pressure sensor array are sealed via a pressure plate and plunger assembly. The target pressure sensor array, seal, and reference pressure sensor array are exposed to a first pressure. The target differential pressure sensor array, seal, and reference pressure sensor array are then exposed to a second pressure. The probe socket verifies that all reference pressure sensors continue to output the first pressure. If the probe socket identifies a reference pressure sensor that reads the second pressure, then the corresponding target pressure sensor is identified as being defective because of leakage.
