A desynchonizer for a synchronous digital communications system serves to recover a useful signal from a synchronous digital input signal. The force sensors are mounted in bores defined in the probe body and include a pin that may be displaced in the bore to exert pressure on an electrical transducer. The method comprises first creating a graphical program, wherein the graphical program may implement a measurement function. in the range of from \u22121 to 7. The switching device does not include a source or drain region at a side connected to an adjacent cell device but includes a source or drain region at the side opposite to the side connected to the adjacent cell device.
