International Classification:

G11B 2020

US Classification:

714700, 713400

Abstract:

To overcome these problems, the present invention generates two window strobes and uses the two window strobes to determine if skew between two signals meets predetermined criteria. One of the window strobes is used to test one of the signals, and the other window strobe is generated relative to the first window strobe. The second window strobe tests the other signal (or signals, if they are data signals). From the tests of the two window strobes, it can be determined if the skew between the first and second signals meets predetermined criteria. In particular, the two window strobes are placed relative to each other and to the signals being tested in such a way that when both window strobes indicate passing conditions, skew between the two signals is guaranteed.

Abstract:

A medicine bottle assembly includes a medicine bottle having a storage cavity and an outlet port, with the outlet port disposed on an exterior of the bottle and in fluid communication with the storage cavity. Liquid medicament is disposed in the storage cavity and defines a current fluid level. The outlet port is advantageously disposed entirely below the current fluid level and oriented generally upward. The outlet port is operative to selectively allow flow of the medicament out of the bottle. The assembly may further include a needless syringe having an angled tip. The exterior of the bottle may include a recess disposed above the outlet port, with the recess adapted to receive and retain the syringe. The recess is advantageously aligned with the outlet port. Other aspects and methods are also disclosed.
