New pacemakers prove MRI-proof

Article Abstract:

Henry Halperin, an associate professor of medicine, radiology, and biomedical engineering at John Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore sums up the problem of mixing up magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans and implanted heart devices such as pacemaker. The researchers feared that the electromagnetic fields of the MRI may heat up metal components or pull on and dislodge the device, causing tissue damage, device malfunction, or possibly death.

Reconfigure

Article Abstract:

The programmable logic devices (PLD) commonly called field-programmable arrays use static random-access memory as the personalization memory. The PLDsE input/output would be reduced while attempt are made to speed configuration which will enable partial reconfigurability so that important functions remain resident and infrequently used circuits are paged in as needed.

Article Abstract:

Engineers and their predecessors have put together their views and advice about the laws and rules of transistors and circuits. They have unleashed a torrent of mathematical observations, pronouncements and even a few enduring self-fulfilling prophecies.transistors and circuitsrusa
