Patent EP-0591970-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SHIELDS JEROME D
IPC: H04N7/01
Filed: 1993-10-07
Abstract: A sample rate conversion system converts from an input sample rate stream having a predetermined input sample rate to an output sample stream having a predetermined output sample rate by interpolating output samples from the input samples using first and second approximate sample rate ratios. The system includes circuitry (116,320) which selects an interpolation filter from among a set of filters defined by one of these approximate ratios, and circuitry (118,316) which monitors the magnitude of the error introduced by the approximation. When this monitored error becomes greater than a threshold, the system changes the order in which the filters are selected based the other approximate ratio. This approximate ratio is selected to produce an error which is opposite in sense to the first approximate ratio. The system switches between these sample rate ratios to maintain the magnitude of the position error of the interpolated samples below a predetermined threshold value. A sample rate conversion system which converts a television signal in CCIR (601) format into a Phase Alternate Line (PAL) video signal is disclosed.

Abstract: The described invention is directed to microwave methods for burning-in, electrical stressing, thermal stressing and reducing rectifying junction leakage current in fully processed semiconductor chips individually and at wafer level, as well as burning in and stressing semiconductor chip packaging substrates and the combination of a semiconductor chip mounted onto a semiconductor chip packaging substrate. Microwaves burn-in devices in a substantially shorter period of time than conventional burn-in techniques and avoid the need for special workpiece holders which are required by conventional stress and burn-in techniques. Additionally, microwave methods are described for reducing the leakage current of rectifying junctions, such as PN junctions and Schottky barrier diode junctions of semiconductor devices on fully processed semiconductor chips and wafers.

Abstract: An optical scanning apparatus includes an optical scanning mirror (10), a reflecting mirror (20), and a lens system (31,32). The optical scanning mirror (10) has a first reflecting surface (A) for reflecting an incident beam and a second reflecting surface (B) for reflecting the incident beam and causing the incident beam to emerge. The optical scanning mirror synchronously changes angles of the first and second reflecting surfaces (A,B) in a predetermined direction. The reflecting mirror (20) is arranged in an optical path between the first and second reflecting surfaces to form a double-reflection path. The lens system is arranged in the double-reflection path to cause a beam reflected by the first reflecting surface to be incident on the second reflecting surface at a predetermined angle.

Abstract: A subscriber interface box (2) comprises a network section (12) and a subscriber section (14). The network section (12) is connected to a network cable (4) and the subscriber section (14) is connected to subscriber cables (6) and (8) whereby the network and subscriber sections (13,14) are electrically connected via a test socket (16). The subscriber interface box comprises lever members (38,40) having cavities therethrough for receiving wires of the cables (4,6,8) such that the wires can be rapidly connected and disconnected to insulation displacement contacts. The latter is done by placing the wires in corresponding holes (73,74) of the lever members (38) when the lever members are in an open position, whereby the lever members comprise slots (76,78) transversely intersecting the wire receiving cavities. The slots (73,74) are for receiving upstanding insulation displacement contacts such that when the levers are pushed down to a close position the wires are forced into electrical contact with the IDC contact slots. Insertion of a test plug into the test socket (16) resiliently biases contact arms that extend from the subscriber (14) to the network section (12) such that there is electrical disconnection therebetween and electrical connection of the network section (12) to the testing plug.

Abstract: The present invention provides a data processing system, and method of operating such a system, for facilitating a connection of a program on a client computer (20) to a server (10), the server consisting of a plurality of server computers (40,50,60) with shared resources. The data processing system, the client computer, and the server computers all reside in a logical network. The data processing system has an input means (30) for receiving a request from the client computer for a machine address of a server computer identified by a server computer name sent with the request, such a machine address enabling a connection to be made from the client computer to that server computer via the network. A storage device (80) is provided by the system for storing a list identifying server computer names with machine addresses of the server computers. A conversion means (70) in the system uses the list to convert the server computer name received by the input means into the machine address of the server computer, and then an output means (110) sends the machine address from the conversion means to the client computer. The system is characterised by: decision logic (120) for studying the server computers at predetermined intervals having regard to a predetermined test criteria, in order to select one of the server computers; and writing means (160) for updating the list by associating the machine address for the server computer selected by the decision logic with a particular server computer name contained as a generic server computer name in the list. Using this technique, when a client computer specifies the generic server computer name, it receives the machine address of the server computer identified by the decision logic.
