Patent EP-1102113-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FIELDS RICHARD A
IPC: H04B10/43
Filed: 2000-11-21
Abstract: An optical device for use with an optical input beam comprises an
optical thresholding device (OTD) having a predetermined threshold
level, and is positioned along an optical path defined by the
propagation direction of the optical input beam (12). A source (20)
generates a control beam (22) through the OTD, wherein if the combined
intensity of the optical input beam (12) and the control beam (22) is
large enough to exceed the threshold level of the OTD, the optical beam
passes through the OTD. The OTD attenuates the optical beam as it passes
therethrough. In a preferred embodiment, the OTD is a saturable
absorber. When the device is configured as an optical comparator, the
intensity of the optical input beam (12) is large enough to exceed the
threshold level of the OTD, the OTD saturates and turns transparent so
that the control beam (22) passes through the OTD as an optical
indicator beam and the optical input beam (12) passes through the OTD.
When configured as an optical signal attenuator and the intensity of the
optical input signal is negligible compared to that of the control beam,
the combined intensity of the optical input signal and the control beam
do not saturate the OTD.

power circuit (54, 56, 58). The control circuit (46) has a frame (74, 76) and is
configured to receive the sense signal and to provide a trip signal on a first
terminal (68). The actuator (42) is external to the control circuit frame (74,
76) and has a second terminal (98) coupleable to the first terminal (68). The
actuator (42) is configured to receive the trip signal on the second terminal
(98). The operating mechanism is coupled to the actuator (42) and is
configured to open and close the power circuit in response to actuation of a
lever (36). The actuator (42) is configured to actuate the lever (36) in
response to the trip signal. The interlock mechanism (70, 94) is coupled to at
least one of the actuator (42) and the operating mechanism and is configured
to actuate the lever (36) when the first terminal (68) is not coupled to the
second terminal (98).

Abstract: A phase shifter reset circuit (10), for phase shifting an input signal includes a
phase shifter (12), for shifting the phase of an input signal by a phase determined by
a phase shift reference signal, and a resetter (24) for resetting the phase shift
reference signal in response to a trigger signal (V TR ). Also included is a fixed phase
shifter (16) for shifting the phase of the input signal by a predetermined phase shift
which is connected in parallel with said phase shifter and a threshold detector
circuit set to a threshold level which is substantially equivalent to the voltage
level required by the phases shifter to produce the same phase shift as is
introduced into the input signal by the fixed phase shifter. A bypass circuit (18) is
disposed between the phase shifters and the output and includes a switch (20) for
selecting a signal from either the phase shifted input signal or said fixed phase
shifted signal. The bypass circuit responds to a switching signal in order to
switch from the phase shifted input signal to said fixed phase shifted signal for a
predetermined period of time, during which time the trigger signal for resetting
the phase shifter is generated, before switching back to the phase shifted input
signal. The phase shifter reset circuit may be incorporated in a delay locked
loop.

Abstract: A signal processing device uses a ΔΣ modulator (13) having varying effective
orders to ensure an S/N ratio by selecting a high order when a 1-bit music signal is

bypassed if this occurs. The present invention provides a digital signal processing
device which can switch between an original sound signal and a ΔΣ modulation
signal, and yield a sufficient S/N ratio for a reprocessed ΔΣ modulation signal. If any
1-bit original sound signal is input, little switching noise is generated.
