Which dog managed to win the fight against the jaguar that escaped from the cage of the zoo?

In 1987, a 15-year-old German Shepherd named Gabi defeated a jaguar that had escaped from a cage at the Belgrade Zoo in a fight. A security guard with two dogs made a night round and in the dark did not notice that the jaguar enclosure was empty. However, Gaby smelled the cat and rushed at her, despite the fact that the second dog cowardly ran away. This gave the security guard the opportunity to call the police, who failed to catch the jaguar and had to shoot him to save people. Gabi suffered numerous injuries in the fight, but was successfully operated on and returned to work at the zoo.

What did the Celsius scale originally look like?

In the original Celsius scale, the freezing point of water was taken as 100 degrees, and the boiling point of water was taken as 0. This scale was inverted by Carl Linnaeus, and has been used in this form to this day.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New temperature sensor for computer memory modules 26.12.2006

Maxim Integrated Products introduced the MAX6604, a small, low-cost temperature sensor designed to monitor the thermal behavior of DDR memory modules.

This device measures temperature with an accuracy of +1°C, converts the measured value into digital format and transmits it via a PC-compatible interface. The MAX6604 monitors the temperature continuously and updates the data eight times per second. This method improves performance by providing a highly accurate measurement of module temperature. Analogues that use readings from sensors installed on motherboards to estimate the temperature of memory modules are much less accurate. The MAX6604 is available in miniature TDFN and TSSOP packages.

The device contains a three-address bus, which provides a choice of eight possible addresses. The combination of these features makes the MAX6604 an ideal choice for high performance notebook memory modules. The MAX6604 operates in a temperature range of -20...125°C and a supply voltage of 3,0...5,5 V. The LP3906 module is available in a 4x5mm 24-pin package.

The device has two high-efficiency regulators with a working current of 1,5 A and linear regulators with a working current of 300 A with a PC-compatible interface. The voltage regulators have a dynamically programmable voltage level from 0,8 V to 3,5 V with an efficiency of 96%. Linear regulators have a dynamically programmable wide-output voltage level from 1V to 3,5V.

Applications: broadband processors, peripheral processors (video and audio), I/O power, digital signal processors, programmable logic chips.
