Abstract: The invention is a method and apparatus for use therewith for a main burner of a gas turbine. The method employs catalytic combustion to support main combustion. More specifically, a rich fuel/air mixture is catalytically oxidized with the resulting reacted mixture being made lean by having additional air added thereto. The resulting lean mixture is then combusted in the presence of the main mixture that is also lean thereby supporting combustion of the main mixture. The method allows for enhanced turndown of a lean main mixture.

Abstract: Described is a system and method for centralized synchronization for the transportation of data between devices in different clock domains. In a preferred embodiment, synchronization logic synchronizes read data from an asynchronous peripheral to a bus clock. Rather than being located on each peripheral, the synchronization logic is located in the bus interface logic. When there is an indication that synchronization is needed for a peripheral, the synchronization logic samples the data bus twice or more and compares the values of consecutive data samples. If the data samples are equal, this data is returned to the bus master. If they are different, the data in the next cycle is returned to the bus master.

Abstract: A method for dimming a gas discharge lamp, such as an HID lamp including an MH lamp, includes operating the lamp at nominal power with commutating DC current having a current magnitude I<SUB>L</SUB>=alphaI<SUB>nom</SUB>, alpha being equal to 1 or less than 1. The current magnitude I<SUB>L </SUB>is reduced, but the lamp still is operated at commutating DC current, until alpha reaches a predetermined value beta. Then, the lamp is operated at DC current, and the current magnitude is reduced further, thus achieving a lower dimming level.
