Abstract: In a built-in domestic appliance with a door hinged along its bottom side and provided with a front decorative panel applied to the appliance through a mounting system including a sliding coupling (1,2,3,4,5) between the panel and the door with sliding direction orthogonal to the rotation axis of the door, the panel has such a height that its bottom end comes into contact with the appliance base in the final phase of the door opening, and the sliding coupling includes a spring (8) suitable to push the panel toward the rotation axis. In this way it is possible to mount panels of greater height on the same machines manufactured for the application of standard panels, without requiring any modification of the machine base, since the opening and closing movement of the door also causes the automatic movement of the panel with respect to the door. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is a method and a circuit for writing data (DATA) from a processor (603) to a non-volatile memory ( 602 ) embedded in an integrated circuit. The main objective is to optimize the use of this embedded non-volatile memory. The method comprises a number of steps: The data to be written to the non-volatile memory ( 602 ) is first transferred to a volatile memory ( 601 ). Thereafter, a wait signal (wait) will be send to the processor ( 603 ). Then, the data (DATA) will be transferred from the volatile memory ( 601 ) to the non-volatile memory ( 602 ). At last, the wait signal (wait) will be removed. Thus the non-volatile memory ( 602 ) can be used both as instruction memory and as RAM, which achieves the main goal of this invention. The corresponding circuitry is a complex integrated circuit equipped to execute the above functions.

Abstract: In a wireless network, secure synchronization may be achieved with two messages. A beacon initiator may provide a beacon timestamp field and a beacon nonce to devices in the network. A device in the network that wishes to synchronize with another device may send a message containing a variety of parameters including the beacon timestamp field and the nonce. Upon receipt, the receiving device can check a key included in the message, the beacon timestamp field and the nonce to determine, not only that the sender has a valid key, but that the message has a valid time so that one can be reasonably sure that the message was not simply copied. The receiving device then sends a message response which contains verifiable parameters to enable the message sender to be sure that the sender is communicating with a valid receiver.

Abstract: Bus member addressing method in which if a bus member detects a power drop it switches off its switch (26). A temporally defined slow switching on of switched current sources then takes place sequentially within a group of bus members. The last bus member has a detector that detects when no current is present, so that after a defined time period this switch is still open. Thus one member of a member group is specified and can have an address assigned to it. In further address cycles, other members are assigned addresses in a similar manner. Independent claims are also made for three further bus member addressing methods.
