Patent CA-2253728-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GRAHAM JOHN F
IPC: G01Q60/34
Filed: 1998-11-10
Abstract: An interfacial force microscope includes a differential-capacitance displacement sensor having a tip mounted on an oscillating member. The sensor generates displacement signals in response to oscillations of the member. A  scanner is adjacent the sensor and supports a sample to be imaged. The scanner is actuable to move the sample relative to the sensor to bring the tip into intermittent contact with said sample as the member oscillates. A controller is in communication with the sensor and the scanner. The controller includes a sensor feedback circuit receiving the displacement signals and an AC setpoint signal. The AC setpoint signal has a frequency generally equal to the frequency at the peak of the displacement versus frequency curve of the sensor. The output of the sensor feedback circuit is applied to the sensor to oscillate the member. The controller also provides output to the scanner in response to the displacement signals to control the separation distance between the sensor and the sample.

Title: Method and system for efficiently handling operations in a data processing system
Inventor: ARROYO RONALD XAVIER
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 1999-11-12
Abstract: A shared memory multiprocessor (SMP) data processing system includes a store buffer implemented in a memory controller for temporarily storing recently accessed memory data within the data processing system. The memory controller includes control logic for maintaining coherency between the memory controller's store buffer and memory. The memory controller's store buffer is configured into one or more arrays sufficiently mapped to handle I/O and CPU bandwidth requirements. The combination of the store buffer and the control logic operates as a front end within the memory controller in that all memory requests are first processed by the control logic/store buffer combination for reducing memory latency and increasing effective memory bandwidth by eliminating certain memory read and write operations.
