Abstract: Digital modulation is applied to modulation means 1 to produce a modulated output from a voltage controlled oscillator 2 in a phase locked loop during transmission of a random modulating input. A component of the input voltage on coupling capacitor 18 will be due to half the swing between logic voltage levels but, when transmission ceases and a continuous logic 1 or logic 0 state is applied, the state of charge of the capacitor 18 will change causing an unduly large frequency swing on re-transmission. This is prevented by a biassing circuit comprising resistors 19, 20 fed by tri-state buffer 12 which hold the input terminal of the capacitor at the average level between logic 0 and logic 1 when no modulation is applied.

Abstract: Binary information of input signal obtained from positions separated spatially or in point of time, e.g. image pick-up signals from an image sensor, can be obtained with high accuracy by a simple circuit configuration. A circuit therefor can be implemented as on-chip configuration within the image sensor. A first comparator (31a) set so that a potential on the + terminal is caused to be higher than a potential on the - terminal by voltage V1, a second comparator (31b) set so that a potential on the + terminal is caused to be lower than a potential on - terminal by voltage V2, and a JK flip-flop circuit (32) are arranged. One of two signal output sections (25a, 25b) having quantities of delays different from each other of the final stage in charge transfer section is connected to respective + terminals of the two comparators, the other signal output section is connected to respective - terminals of the two comparators, inverting Q terminal of the first comparator and J terminal of JK flip-flop circuit are connected, and Q terminal of the second comparator and K terminal of JK flip-flop circuit are connected. Thus, binary circuit suitable for, e.g., binarization of output information of an image sensor of a CCD image pick-up apparatus for a bar code reader is provided.

Abstract: A speed measurement arrangement measures the speed of the gas-powder mixture in the supply line. A mass measurement arrangement measures the mass per unit vol. in a section of the supply line. A computer derives the powder mass flow from the measured speed, the measured mass per unit vol. and the dimensions of the supply line. The speed measurement arrangement has two electrodes arranged at a distance apart along the supply line which detect charge variations on the line caused by the powder-gas mixture, from which the speed is derived. The mass measurement arrangement contains a microwave resonator (36) which detects a change in dielectric constant and/or microwave absorption in a resonant vol. of the supply line (10) as a change in the microwave amplitude or resonant frequency, from which the quantity of powder in the resonant vol. is derived.

Abstract: A video signal noise reduction system is disclosed in which corresponding image pixels from a current frame and image pixels from a noise reduced previous frame are averaged to produce respective noise reduced pixel values. In the disclosed exemplary embodiment of the invention, a processed frame memory stores a noise reduced image and a motion estimator identifies a target block of pixels in this processed frame memory to be used in calculating a noise reduced video signal. A motion compensated noise reduction processor combines the block of the noise reduced image pixels stored in the processed frame memory with a current block of pixels generated from the video signal to produce a motion block of noise reduced pixels. The relative weighting applied to the stored pixel and the current pixel depends on the number of pixels that were used to generate the stored pixel. A breakdown detector discards pixels in the motion block if a measure of noise reduction achieved for the one component divided by a measure of noise in the motion block is greater than a threshold value. Sparkle reduction is used to replace any original component of the motion block with its corresponding noise reduced component if all of the components adjacent to the original component have been replaced by their corresponding noise reduced components.

Abstract: A system that integrates active and simulated decisionmaking processes generates decisions in response to events representing changes in a domain model, and updates the domain model according to the decisions. The system includes a real-time mode for generating recommendations in response to real-time events, and a simulation mode for generating recommendations in response to simulated events. The simulation mode is capable of running on either randomly generated domain events or real-time domain events captured during the real-time mode. In addition, the simulation mode does not require development of a separate domain model for simulation. Rather, the simulation mode may use the contents of a domain model established during the real-time mode. Integration of an active decisionmaking tool with a simulation tool thereby eliminates the cost of constructing a separate simulation model, and avoids invalidation of the contents of the simulation model over time.

Abstract: A computing system includes a plurality of nodes that are connected by a communications network. Each node comprises a communications interface that enables an exchange of messages with other nodes. A ready queue is maintained in a node and includes a plurality of message entries, each message entry indicating an output message control data structure. The node further includes memory for storing a plurality of output message control data structures, each including one or more chained further control data structures that define data comprising a message or a portion of a message that is to be dispatched. Control data structures that are chained from an output message control data structure exhibit a sequence dependency. A processor is controlled by the ready queue and enables dispatch of portions of the message designated by an output message control data structure and associated further control structures. The processor prevents dispatch of one portion of a message prior to dispatch of another portion of the message upon which the first portion is dependent even if message transmissions are interrupted.

Abstract: In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device comprising a semiconductor chip and a carrier film which includes an insulating film and wiring patterns formed on one of main surfaces of the insulating film, an adhesive layer is formed on a surface of a semiconductor wafer having a number of integrated circuits. Each of the integrated circuits has electrode pads for external connection on the foregoing surface of the semiconductor wafer. Subsequently, openings are formed at regions of the adhesive layer corresponding to the electrode pads, and then, the semiconductor wafer is cut per integrated circuit so as to obtain the semiconductor chips. Thereafter, the electrode pads of the semiconductor chip and the wiring patterns of the carrier film are connected to each other through the corresponding openings of the adhesive layer, respectively. Then, the semiconductor chip and the carrier film are bonded together via the adhesive layer interposed therebetween. It may be arranged that the adhesive layer is formed on the carrier film rather than on the semiconductor chip.

La forme d'origine de ces crochets s'infléchit sous l'effet d'une contrainte, mais revient à la géométrie d'origine lorsque cesse la contrainte.
