As used herein, the term “module” refers to an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), an electronic circuit, a microprocessor, a computer processor (shared, dedicated, or group) and memory that executes one or more software or firmware programs, a combinational logic circuit, a microcontroller including various inputs and outputs, and/or other suitable components that provide the described functionality. The module is configured to execute various algorithms, transforms, and/or logical processes to generate one or more signals of controlling a component or system. When implemented in software, a module can be embodied in memory as a non-transitory machine-readable storage medium readable by a processing circuit (e.g., a microprocessor) and storing instructions for execution by the processing circuit for performing a method. A controller refers to an electronic hardware controller including a storage unit capable of storing algorithms, logic or computer executable instruction, and that contains the circuitry necessary to interpret and execute instructions.
As used herein, the terms “first,” “second,” and the like, herein do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another, and the terms “a” and “an” herein do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced item. In addition, it is noted that the terms “bottom” and “top” are used herein, unless otherwise noted, merely for convenience of description, and are not limited to any one position or spatial orientation.
The modifier “about” used in connection with a quantity is inclusive of the stated value and has the meaning dictated by the context (e.g., includes the degree of error associated with measurement of the particular quantity).
