A driver circuit for driving a radiation emitting semiconductor device (ED) comprises a current path coupled between a first reference potential terminal (VDD) and a second reference potential terminal (GND). The current path includes a first and a second terminal (TA, TC) for connecting the radiation emitting semiconductor device (ED), and a series connection of a current source (CS1) and a first switch (SW1). A second switch (SW2) connects the first and the second terminal (TA, TC) via a level shifter (LS) providing a voltage difference greater than 0 V. A clock generator block (CGB) is configured to receive a pulse signal (PS) having one or more switch pulses, to generate a reset signal (RPS) having one or more reset pulses, each reset pulse subsequently following an end of a corresponding one of the switch pulses, to control the first switch (SW1) based on the pulse signal (PS) or a delayed version of the pulse signal (PS'), and to control the second switch (SW2) based on the reset signal (RPS).

A colored (viz., not black) vitreous enamel coating for an electrosurgical metal cutting blade provides heat-resistant, durable blade coloration and facilitates differentiation or discrimination between, or identification of, different blades. Different colors may be employed on different blade shapes in an array of blades, on blades used for different surgical procedures, or on blades used on different tissue types. The color may be applied to a portion of a blade to denote an edge or other feature. The color may preferentially absorb the primarily blue-hued light emitted by an electrosurgery plasma and preferentially reflect light of other hues; make the blade more visible against surrounding tissues; or discourage reflection of visible or other light (e.g., infrared radiation) in colors that might interfere with markers, sensors or other instruments designed to measure light emitted by or passing through nearby tissue such as by transillumination.

Methods and devices for computer-implemented scene processing include obtaining samples of a scene in a field of view based on output from one or more radio frequency (RF) detector arrays configured to receive radiation according to a scan pattern. The samples are processed through a plurality of one-dimensional convolution filters, and a three-dimensional feature tensor is generated based on the processing. Using a convolutional neural network, additional processing is used to detect one or more properties of the scene, and an output is generated indicating the detected one or more properties of the scene.

Focused acoustic radiation, referred to as tonebursts, are applied to a volume of liquid to generate a set of droplets. In one embodiment, a first toneburst is applied to temporarily raise a mound or protuberance on a free surface of the fluid. After the mound has reached a certain state, at least two additional toneburst can be applied to the protuberance to sequentially eject multiple bursts of multiple droplets. In one embodiment, the state of the mound can be maintained by a sustained acoustic signal, during which time multiple additional tonebursts can be applied to sequentially eject multiple bursts of multiple droplets from the mound.
