A device including a first and second monitoring unit, the first monitoring unit detecting a first voltage potential and the second monitoring unit detecting a second voltage potential, the monitoring units comparing the first voltage potential and the second voltage potential to the value of the supply voltage and activate a control unit as a function of the comparisons, the control unit determining a switching point in time of a second power transistor, and an arrangement being present which generates current when the second power transistor is being switched on, the current changing the first voltage potential, and the control unit activates a first power transistor when the first voltage potential has the same value as the supply voltage, so that the first power transistor is de-energized.

Device and method for reducing switching losses in power transistors

Device and methods for use in a biosensor comprising a multisite array of test sites, the device and methods being useful for modulating the binding interactions between a (biomolecular) probe or detection agent and an analyte of interest from a biological by modulating the pH or ionic gradient near the electrodes in such biosensor. An electrochemically active agent that is suitable for use in biological buffers for changing the pH of the biological buffers. Method for changing the pH of biological buffers using the electrochemically active agents. The methods of modulating the binding interactions provided in a biosensor, analytic methods for more accurately controlling and measuring the pH or ionic gradient near the electrodes in such biosensor, and analytic methods for more accurately measuring an analyte of interest in a biological sample.
