An oscillating fan control system includes a holder, a stepper motor, a rotating shaft, a shaft encoder, and a controller. The controller is electrically coupled to the stepper motor and the shaft encoder. The shaft encoder can generate a status signal corresponding to a rotation path of the rotating shaft. The controller includes a reversing circuit and a driving circuit. The reversing circuit can generate a reversing signal for the stepper motor in response to the status signal indicating a deviation of the rotating shaft from a midpoint position of the rotation path. The driving circuit can generate pulse signals for the stepper motor according to a subdivision parameter and an oscillation angle. A method for controlling an oscillating fan is also disclosed.

Example systems, apparatus, circuits, and so on described herein concern intervention-independent scan plane control for an MRI system. A tracking device capable of being manipulated independently of an interventional device in use to treat a patient transmits position signals describing an orientation of the tracking device to an MRI system. The MRI system determines a desired scan plan that will correspond to the orientation of the tracking device and performs a diagnostic scan on the desired scan plan.

A vertically integrated chip scale package (CSP) assembly comprising two or more single chip package subassemblies having an upper level CSP subassembly superimposed directly above a lower level CSP subassembly. The lower-most CSP subassembly in the vertical stack contains an array of solder balls for interconnection to a printed wiring board. The vertical electrical connection between the upper and lower level package subassemblies is accomplished by using wire bonding from perimeter wire bonding pads located on an upper level substrate extension to matching perimeter wire bonding pads located on a lower level substrate extension that is longer in length than the upper level substrate extension. The stacked package subassemblies are bonded together by using a thin adhesive material, and the perimeter wire bonds are encapsulated by an encapsulant for protection. The assembled vertical stack has the appearance of a single CSP but is shorter in height than two individual packages that are stacked together with solder ball interconnects located therebetween.

Repeater units in a stack are identical. Each repeater unit has an internal repeater and an internal bridge. The repeater stack is dual-speed, with each repeater connecting to a 10 Mbps (10M) backplane bus and to a 100 Mbps (100M) backplane bus in the stack's chassis. The internal repeater has a 10M repeater circuit that connects 10M ports to the 10M bus, and a 100M repeater circuit that connects 100M ports to the 100M bus. Ports are configured for either 10M or 100M operation. Data from 10M ports is repeated to all other 10M ports and to the 10M bus, but not to 100M ports or the 100M bus. Instead, a 10M port is connected to the internal bridge, which is also connected to a 100M port. The internal bridge stores and forwards packets to and from the 10M port and the 100M port. Only one internal bridge in the stack is configured to link the 10M and 100M ports. Other internal bridges are configured to connect a cascading port to the internal repeater. The cascading port is buffered by the internal bridge. This buffering allows external repeaters to be cascaded without regard to the repeater limit. Repeater units in the stack can be automatically configured to enable only the first internal bridge for 10/100M linking, with the other repeater units'internal bridges configured for cascading.

Each stacked repeater has two activity ports that are daisy chained to the activity ports of other repeaters in the stack. Each activity port has an input and an output. The two activity ports connect to the next repeater above and the next repeater below in the stack. Each repeater examines its local network ports to computer stations such as PC's to determine if any are inputting data to the repeater. When any local port is inputting data, the repeater activates both of its activity-port outputs. When no local port is inputting data, the repeater simply passes each activity-port's input through to the other activity-port's output. Thus the activity-port output indicates when either the repeater or an earlier repeater in the chain has a local port inputting data. Port activity is chained in two directions: through all repeaters in the stack from the top-most repeater, down the stack to the bottom-most repeater, and also from the bottom-most repeater, up through the repeaters to the top-most repeater. Thus one activity-port's input indicates when any of the repeaters above have a local port inputting data, while the other activity-port's input indicates when any of the repeaters below have a local port inputting data. The one-port-left state is determined by any repeater using the two activity ports.
