Abstract: A pulse width modulated power supply controller is disclosed which is capable of generating synchronization pulses in such a manner that multiple ones of such power supply controllers in a system are synchronized to the controller having the highest oscillation frequency, without requiring one of the controllers to be implemented as a master and the others implemented as slaves. The power supply controller includes two comparators which are coupled to receive the external capacitor voltage. A first comparator enables a fast charging circuit, such as a current source, for increasing the rate at which the capacitor is charged responsive to the capacitor voltage reaching a first threshold; a single-ended or differential synchronization pulse is also generated, and communicated to the first comparators of other power supply controllers in a multiple controller system. The second comparator, which includes hysteresis in its characteristic, turns off the fast charging circuit at the upper threshold and initiates the discharge of the capacitor. Control of the output and masking of the comparators of the controllers is also based on the operation of the first and second comparators.

Abstract: An improved method for forming a Bragg grating in a photosensitive, optical waveguiding medium (e.g. optical fiber) by exposure to an interference pattern formed by overlapping beams of actinic radiation. When Bragg gratings are formed according to methods of the prior art, these gratings tend to exhibit reflectivity spectra having, in addition to a central peak, a generally undesirable series of subsidiary peaks (sidelobes). These subsidiary peaks are caused by a wave interference effect. The inventive method modifies or eliminates the subsidiary peaks by spatially modulating the average refractive index of the grating, or by spatially modulating the grating period.

Abstract: An encoder applies a digital filterbank such as a transform or subband filterbank to an input signal to generate frequency subband information, encodes the resultant subband information using adaptive bit allocation to generate fixed-length values represented by fixed numbers of bits and variable-length values represented by variable numbers of bits, and formats the subband information into an encoded signal in which the fixed-length values are assembled into preestablished positions within the encoded signal. In response to an encoded signal including subband information represented by fixed-length values and variable-length values, a decoder extracts fixed-length values represented by fixed numbers of bits from preestablished positions within the encoded signal, extracts variable-length values represented by variable numbers of bits, wherein the variable numbers of bits are established in response to fixed-length values, and generates an output signal by applying an inverse filterbank to the extracted subband information.

Abstract: An air bearing slider has both front and rear pads extending from a generally planar body, both pads having faces opposed to a recording medium and separated by a gap that is substantially in excess of any fly height of the slider. Both surfaces exhibit extremely small taper angles that enable "inlet throttling" of air beneath the slider. Such inlet throttling provides the slider with a fly height that is substantially independent of relative speed changes between the slider and a recording medium. A preferred embodiment includes front and rear pads that are convex in the direction of movement of the recording medium e.g. are "forward swept". Such convexity enables substantial resistance to fly height changes in response to skew alteration.

Abstract: Data selectors (217) select values which affect display of data. The data selector represents a set of values, and selection is done by interactively "painting" a portion of the data selector. The values which correspond to the painted portion are activated. Species of the data selectors include discrete data selectors, continuous data selectors, and multidimensional data selectors. An exemplary discrete data selector is employed in apparatus for displaying information about a very large number of entities. The apparatus includes very small entity representations (207) representing entities such as lines of text contained in columns (205) representing a context such as the files which contain the lines. The discrete data selector represents the values of an attribute of the entities. Painting the discrete data selector activates the entity representations having the corresponding values. A code viewer (button 227) permits detailed views of information about the entity represented by a selected entity representation. There are further animated display modes and techniques for remapping colors onto the selector fields. Applications of the apparatus include testing and maintenance of software and selection of programs in interactive TV systems.
