Patent EP-1570455-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KNAPP ALAN G
IPC: G09G3/32
Filed: 2003-11-21
Abstract: An IC arrangement (200) has a plurality of IC modules (220a, 220b), the individual IC modules (220a, 220b) being coupled between a first power line (202) and a second power line (204) via a voltage generator (240a, 240b). The voltage generators (240a, 240b) are powered via the first power line (202) and the second power line (204) and are arranged to regenerate a reference voltage on a reference power line (106) for providing the IC modules (220a, 220b) with the regenerated voltage on respective internal power lines (222a, 222b). A feedback loop (242a, 242b) from the internal power lines (222a, 222b) to the voltage generator (240a, 240b) ensures that the voltage on the internal power lines (222a, 222b) remains substantially constant, even if substantial current fluctuations on the first power line (202), the second power line (204) or the internal power line (222a, 222b) occur. The IC arrangement (200) is particularly suitable as a driver circuit for a matrix array device.

Abstract: The present invention provides a wireless network system that enables direct wireless delivery of a multimedia message from a first MMS user agent to a second MMS user agent. In accordance with one embodiment of the invention, the wireless network system includes a MMS server that receives, from the first MMS user agent, a request to send a multimedia message to the second MMS user agent. The request includes an identification (ID) number of the second MMS user agent. From a core network, for example, the MMS server obtains an Internet address of the second MMS user agent based on the ID number of the second MMS user agent, if the ID number is not an Internet address of the second MMS user agent. Then the MMS server forwards the Internet address to the first MMS user agent to enable the first MMS user agent to wirelessly deliver the multimedia message directly to the second MMS user agent using the Internet address. Therefore, by not involving a MMS server in delivering multimedia messages, a substantial amount of network resources is saved, and delivery speed of multimedia messages is significantly increased. As a result, the performance of the overall network system is greatly improved.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to produce complete high temperature fuel cells by means of thermal injection processes (e.g. atmospheric plasma injection, vacuum plasma injection, high speed flame injection). The production method is especially simplified and is economical by virtue of the fact that the carrier substrate is also produced on a base with the aid of a thermal injection method. The base or an intermediate layer placed thereon can be advantageously dissolved or decomposed such that the carrier substrate provided with layers arranged thereon can be separated in a very simple manner from the base which becomes unnecessary. Said method advantageously enables the production of all layers of a high temperature fuel cell, exclusively with the aid of a thermal injection method.
