Title: Triplet architecture in a multi-port bridge for a local area network including method and apparatus for periodically updating entries in a content addressable memory
Inventor: CHUNG DAVID H
IPC: H04L12/40
Filed: 1998-09-15
Granted: 2000-08-01
Abstract: A multi-port bridge includes a memory and a plurality of ports. Each port includes a receive buffer, a transmit buffer and a ""triplet"" buffer. As a data packet is being received by the receive buffer of a port, a look-up table is utilized to identify the appropriate destination port for the packet. A result of the look-up is a ""triplet"" which includes: a first field containing the identification of the source port, a second field containing the identification of the destination port, and a third field containing a starting address assigned to the incoming packet in the memory. The triplet is placed upon the communication bus a first time. If the destination port is available, the destination port receives the packet simultaneously as the packet is stored in the memory. Otherwise, the triplet is placed on the communication bus a second time after the packet is stored in the memory. The destination port stores the triplet in its triplet buffer. Then, when the destination port is available, the destination port retrieves the packet from the memory for transmission. For packets received during a first period, the number of the port receiving the packet is stored with the address of the node which generated the packet in a first memory and in a second memory. During the first period, the first memory is utilized for directing packets through the bridge. At the end of the first period, a third memory is cleared. For packets received during a second period, the number of the port receiving the packet is stored with the address of the node which generated the packet in the second memory and in the third memory. During the second period, the second memory is utilized for directing packets through the bridge. At the end of the second period, the first memory is cleared. For packets received during a third period, the number of the port receiving the packet is stored with the address of the node which generated the packet in the first memory and in the third memory. During the third period, the third memory is utilized for directing packets through the bridge. At the end of the third period, the second memory is cleared. This sequence is repeated such that no entry more than two periods old is utilized for directing a packet through the multi-port bridge, however, the age of each entry is not tracked.

Title: Electrical current saving combined smoke and fire detector
Inventor: MARMAN DOUGLAS H
IPC: G08B29/04
Filed: 1998-09-24
Granted: 2000-12-01
Abstract: A fire detection system (10) includes a smoke detector (52) that measures smoke particle density indicative of smoldering fires and a CO2 detector (90) that measures CO2 concentration indicative of flaming fires. In a first operating current saving method, the smoke detector is operated at a normal PRF while the CO2 detector is operated at a very slow PRF. Smoke density measurements (14) produced by the smoke detector are compared with a set of tentative fire detection criteria (18, 20, 22, 14), and if met, the CO2 detector PRF is substantially increased to rapidly produce CO2 concentration measurements (26) that are compared to a set of conclusive fire detection criteria (30, 32, 36, 38). In a second operating current saving method, the CO2 detector is operated at a normal PRF while the smoke detector is operated at a zero PRF. CO2 concentration measurements produced by the CO2 detector are compared with a set of tentative fire detection criteria (30, 32, 36, 38), and if met, the smoke detector PRF is substantially increased to rapidly produce smoke density measurements that are compared to a set of conclusive fire detection criteria (18, 20, 22, 24). In a reliability improving operating method, electrical current draw and/or signal presence of the smoke and CO2 detectors are monitored to determine whether either detector has failed. If a failure is detected, fire detection criteria normally employed are changed to criteria optimized for the remaining detector.

Title: Asynchronous transfer mode switch
Inventor: PETERSEN LARS-GORAN
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1998-12-22
Granted: 2001-12-01
Abstract: An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch (20) has plural switch ports (24) connected by respective bidirectional links (27, 28) to a switch core (22). Connected to each switch port is a corresponding row column unit (40), each row column unit managing the writing of service cells to one row of cross point units (32) and the reading of service cells from one column of cross point units. The bidirectional links between each switch port and its corresponding row column unit of the switch core carry both service cells and control cells. Cells of differing sizes are carried on the bidirectional links between the switch core and the switch ports. Service cells have a differing cell size than the control cells, and the cell size of the service cells need not necessarily be uniform. Differing types of control cells--link connection control (LCC) cells and link synchronization control (LSC) cells are provided. The link connection control cells (LCC) are used e.g., to read and write control data into and from control registers of the switch core. The link connection control cells (LCC) include cells of two formats--a bitmapped format (for reading/writing with respect to bitmapped control registers) and a ""coded"" format (used for input/output operations for some bitmapped as well as non-bitmapped registers).

Title: Pulsed decoders for improving bitline precharging in memories
Inventor: HUANG EDDY C
IPC: G11C8/12
Filed: 1999-04-30
Granted: 2001-08-11
Abstract: A memory system is accessed and precharged by accessing adjacent columns in the memory array with a pulsed select signal in a first state and then enabling precharge circuitry to precharge the adjacent columns using the same select signal in a second state. Latches, coupled to the outputs of the sense amplifiers sensing the data from the adjacent cells, are also controlled by a pulsed signal synchronized with the select signal such that at the same time the adjacent columns are selected and accessed, the latches detect the data sensed by their corresponding sense amplifier. Once the select signal changes to its second state, the adjacent columns are deselected and the latches are disabled such that the data sensed from the adjacent columns is saved by the latches and provided to the output of the memory system and such that the precharge circuitry is enabled and the adjacent column bitlines are precharged. Access cycle times are reduced by accessing and precharging small sets of adjacent columns such that precharge takes less time and occurs immediately after cells have been accessed.

Title: Cryptographic synchronization recovering device and method
Inventor: CHUANG I-YAO
IPC: H04L9/00
Filed: 1999-05-06
Granted: 2001-04-11
Abstract: A cryptographic synchronization recovering device and method proceeds code communication on E1, T1 and V.35 and solves the problem of cryptographic synchronization between transmission end and receive end. Under the circumstance of losing cryptographic synchronization, the transmission end will actively generate pattern and transmit the cipher text through the encryption process to the receiving end. The receiving end will adjust the block boundary of cipher by the unit of bits or bytes code, and decode to get plain text. When receiving end can decode the plain text with periodical pattern data, it means that the receiving end has modified the correct cipher text block boundary back, and at the same time the transmission end and the receiving end also recover cryptographic synchronization.

Title: Keyboard device with safety password authorization and the method thereof
Inventor: HOU JIAN-TSZ
IPC: G06F3/023
Filed: 1999-10-02
Granted: 2003-05-11
Abstract: The present invention relates to a keyboard device with safety password authorization and the method thereof, and more specifically to a password authorization system using hardware authorization for private message inputted by the keyboard. The device is to configure an unreadable authorization buffer with protection function in the keyboard, an authorization controller, and an authorization table for authorization. The authorization buffer and the keyboard buffer originally in the keyboard together process the stream inputted by the keyboard. The password message is sent into the authorization buffer. The authorization controller gets the message from the authorization buffer and compares with the message in the authorization table. If the authorization is passed, it will allow the user to use the computer system and clear the authorization buffer. Because the CPU and authorization software are not involved in the authorization process, the illegal hacker cannot intercept the private message, so as to solve the safety leakage in the conventional password authorization system.

Title: Optical pickup to control beam shift and field angle in an optical disk drive
Inventor: RYOO BYUNG-RYUL
IPC: G11B7/08
Filed: 1999-10-07
Granted: 2001-09-21
Abstract: An optical pickup of an optical disk drive. The optical pickup includes a laser beam source for generating a laser beam; a pickup base having an objective lens for projecting the laser beam generated from the laser beam source to an information recording surface of an optical disk; a variation adjusting plate which is movably disposed on the pickup base to be moved in vertical and lateral directions, and has a rotational hole formed at a central portion thereof; and a rotation adjusting plate including a rotational section having a predetermined curvature which is inserted into the rotational hole of the variation adjusting plate, and with a laser beam source fixed therein, the rotation adjusting plate being rotated with respect to the variation adjusting plate. An optical system including a collimating lens and a reflective mirror is fixed to the pickup base. Since the light path with respect to the field angle and the beam shift is adjusted by moving and/or rotating the light emitting point of the laser beam source with respect to the light axis of the collimating lens, the size of the optical pickup becomes smaller. Further, sine the collimating lens and the light source are fixed to the respective structures, the light path is controlled regardless of the focal distance of the collimating lens. Accordingly, if the focal distance of the collimating lens has to be lengthened, the beam shift and the field angle can be precisely adjusted without enlarging the optical pickup.
