Abstract: A drive apparatus for an optical element array includes a counter counting clock pulses and being periodically reset at a horizontal scanning period. The counter outputs first and second counter signals out of phase with each other. A latch holds a pixel-corresponding segment of an input image signal. One of clock signals out of phase with each other is selected in response to the pixel-corresponding input-signal segment held by the latch. A first comparator compares the first counter signal and the pixel-corresponding input-signal segment held by the latch, and outputs a first identity signal when the first counter signal and the pixel-corresponding input-signal segment are equal to each other. A second comparator compares the second counter signal and the pixel-corresponding input-signal segment held by the latch, and outputs a second identity signal when the second counter signal and the pixel-corresponding input-signal segment are equal to each other. A drive pulse is generated which starts in synchronism with a start of a horizontal scanning period and which ends in response to the selected clock signal and in response to the first and second identity signals. An optical element in the array is driven in response to the drive pulse.

Abstract: A communications adapter interconnects a first device exhibiting a two way alternate (TWA) protocol and a second device exhibiting a two way simultaneous (TWS) protocol. The communications adapter comprises a transmit buffer for storing data received from the first device via a first communication link for transmission to the second device via a second communication link, and a receive buffer for storing data received from the second device via the second communication link for transmission to the first device via the first communication link. Data can be transferred in either direction between the transmit or receive buffer and the first device faster than in the same direction between the transmit or receive buffer and the second device. To optimize the overall transfer rate in both directions between the first and second devices, the second communication link is kept busy in both directions by preventing the receive buffer from filling with data from the second device while the first device transmits data to the transmit buffer, and preventing the transmit buffer from emptying due to reading by the second device while the first device reads data from the receive buffer.

Abstract: A label printing apparatus includes a liquid crystal display unit for displaying an input character string and a message corresponding to each operation stage, a printing unit for printing a character string on each label, a storage unit for storing each data, and a CPU for performing each processing and control. Label information specifying sizes and the like of various types of labels, sheet numbers corresponding to the label information, character size information defining character sizes, and the like are stored in the storage unit. The CPU specifies label information corresponding to the sheet number and selects a maximum printable character size from a character size table as an initial value on the basis of a printing area. The character size is changed so that the horizontal length of an input character string falls within the printing area. The character size is further changed so that all the characters of the character string extending in all the lines fall within the printing area. An optimal character size is finally selected, and actual printing is performed on each label using this character size.

Abstract: A desynchronizer (20) for desynchronizing data stored within synchronous payload envelopes of a synchronous communication protocol such as SONET (Synchronous Optical Network), provides for smoothing the periodically discontinuous clock signal associated with that data after the synchronous communication protocol overhead has been removed. The desynchronizer accommodates for shifts in the position of the payload envelope and hence, the data within the synchronous communication frame as well as adjustments within the data itself due to asynchronous bit stuff information. The desynchronizer utilizes a leak filter (26) having a linear branch (54) and an integrator branch (56), both branches having adjustable factors (61, 63, 65, 88, 90, 91, 93, 95, 100, 102, 105) regarding their operation, wherein the adjustable factors are selected depending upon threshold values (86, 87, 89, 62) which in turn are based upon the difference between the average write address and read address for the associated elastic store (22) within which the incoming data removed from the synchronous communication system frame is temporarily stored. The leak filter (26) forms part of a phase locked loop which in turn adjusts the read clock frequency (46) in a manner which minimizes overflow or underflow of the elastic store while simultaneously minimizing the rate of change of the read clock rate so as to limit jitter. A fault recovery apparatus forms part of the desynchronizer for enabling fastlock high gain factors (67, 97, 107) to quickly adjust the read clock when elastic store overflow or underflow occurs. The gain factor associated with both the linear branch and integrator branch are provisionable (118, 120) as well as elastic store size and thresholds resulting in a desynchronizer which can be modified to meet the particular jitter requirements of a particular synchronous communication system. A calculation engine (82) performs iterative calculations to generate the leak filter output value using a reduced number of logic gates for ASIC implementation.
