Second signals generated from the variable gain units are combined by a combining unit to generate an output signal. A plurality of power supply control units apply power supplies to the variable gain units, respectively. The variable gain units and the power supply control units are controlled by a control unit. When one of the variable gain units and one of the power supply control units are activated the, corresponding power supply is turned ON.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed August 27, 1996 and granted August 17, 1999. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended August 27, 2016.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by August 27, 2018.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
