Patent EP-0986913-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JAKOB GERD
IPC: H04N7/18
Filed: 1998-05-16
Abstract: Eine elektronische Brille, insbesondere Nachtsichtbrille, umfasst ein Brillenteil (1), welches über ein Kabel (3) mit einem Taschenteil (2) verbunden ist. Am Brillenteil (1) sind mindestens eine elektronische Kamera, z.B. CCD-Kamera, (5) und mindestens ein Display (8) zur Betrachtung durch den Benutzer vorgesehen. Im Taschenteil (2) befindet sich eine Batterie (9) und ganz oder teilweise die zum Betrieb erforderliche Bildbearbeitungselektronik (20). Letztere sorgt für eine automatische Kontrastoptimierung, die bei veränderten Lichtverhältnissen automatisch nachgeführt wird. Hierzu umfasst die Bildaufbereitungselektronik (20) einen Analysekreis (21), welcher die Grauwertverteilung H(x) in dem von der elektronischen Kamera (5) aufgenommenen Bild ermittelt. Diese Information wird einem Transformationskreis (22) zugeleitet, welcher entsprechend einer Transformationsformel ("Äqualisationskennlinie") aus der ursprünglichen Grauwertverteilung H(x) eine modifizierte Grauwertverteilung H'(x) erstellt, bei welcher zwar Zahl und Häufigkeit der auftretenden diskreten Grauwerte unverändert ist, die Lage der auftretenden Grauwerte dagegen so modifiziert ist, dass insgesamt ein grösserer Bereich von Grauwerten vorhanden ist.

Abstract: A lower electrode 106 on which a wafer W can be placed and an
upper electrode 108 are provided facing each other inside a processing
chamber 102 of an etching apparatus 100. A first high frequency power
supply 116 capable of outputting high frequency power for plasma
generation is connected to the upper electrode 108 via a first matching
device 114. A second high frequency power supply 122 capable of
outputting high frequency power for biasing having a frequency lower
than the frequency of the high frequency power for plasma generation is
connected to the lower electrode 106 via a second matching device 120.
Power that enables, at least, matching of the high frequency power for
biasing is applied to the lower electrode 106 concurrently with the
application of the high frequency power for plasma generation at a stable
power level to the upper electrode 108. When the matching period has
elapsed, the high frequency power for biasing applied to the lower
electrode 106 is raised to the stable power level. This structure prevents
any reduction in the plasma density and any excess voltage occurring at
the electrodes when the high frequency power for biasing is applied.

Abstract: Control circuitry is described for regulating charging current from a current source (106) to a battery (108). The control circuitry includes a switch (118) for transmitting the charging current from the current source (106) to the positive terminal of the battery. A charge pump (126) drives the gate terminal of the switch above the positive terminal voltage. A comparator stage with hysteresis (124) gates the charge pump (126). A filtering stage (120) senses the battery voltage and drives the comparator stage (124). The control circuitry controls the average value of the battery voltage by pulse width modulating the charging current.

Abstract: Ce dispositif comporte un premier régulateur (21) qui est commuté sur un actionneur (14) destiné au turbocompresseur (3, 4) seulement dans le cas où un système de détection de défaut ne détecte aucun défaut dans le fonctionnement du moteur. Une commutation du premier régulateur (21) sur un deuxième régulateur (24) s'effectue lorsque le système de détection de défaut (15) détecte un défaut critique. Le deuxième régulateur (24) reçoit alors comme signal d'entrée un autre signal de déviation que le premier régulateur (21). Ainsi, en cas de défaut, le turbocompresseur peut être piloté de manière très souple sans risquer d'être réglé vers le haut dans sa plage de régime critique.
