Inventor: MAHER III ROBERT D
IPC: G06F9/46
Filed: 1993-06-17
Abstract: A microprocessor is disclosed which has enhanced system management capabilities. The microprocessor includes circuitry for accessing external memory within a known address space. Circuitry is provided for programmably defining a range of addresses within the address space for use by system management routines. In the preferred embodiment, the system management memory is defined by a starting address and a block size. Further, upon receiving a system management interrupt, the microprocessor stores that processor status information which is always affected upon initiation of a system management routine; other information is stored, such that the time overhead associated with system management routine is minimized. Additional features that provide added functionality are: (a) an NMI ENABLE feature allows servicing NMIs during SMM operations; (b) an SMI LOCK feature prevents unauthorized access to SMM space or SMM routines, such as by hackers or viruses; (C) an I/O buffering feature allows I/O information (operand, size, and port address) facilitates transparent retries of I/O operations that result in a trap to an SMI routine, such as for power-up of peripherals; and (d) a software SMM instruction provides added flexibility in the use of SMM operations.

Abstract: The invention relates to a permanent-magnet DC motor having two rotation-speed levels, especially for driving domestic kitchen machines, as well as having a stator which is fitted with permanent magnets and having a rotor (9). At one end, the rotor has two commutators (8, 10) each having at least two commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14 respectively) which are approximately diametrically opposite on a commutator (8 or 10 respectively), and, at the other end, it has two armature windings which are isolated from one another in DC terms and are connected to in each case one of the commutators (8, 10). The armature windings have approximately the same number of turns and the same wire cross-sections, using the same material selection. Furthermore, switching means are provided for connecting the commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14 respectively) to an AC voltage mains power supply (1). The switching means consist of a bridge rectifier (5) and a switch (19). The two armature windings are electrically connected in series with one another and to the positive output (4) and negative output (16) of the bridge rectifier (5) via the commutator brushes (7, 11 and 13, 14). The switch (19) is connected between the connecting lead (12) which connects the two commutator brushes (11, 13), and one of the two AC voltage connections (17, 23) of the bridge rectifier (5). In consequence, the DC motor can be operated at two speed levels using simple switching means, without it being demagnetised and heated non-uniformly in the process. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A double cache snoop mechanism in uniprocessor computer systems having a cache and coherent I/O and multiprocessor computer systems reduces the number of cycles that a processor is stalled during a coherency check. The snoop mechanism splits each coherency check, such that a read-only check is first sent to the cache subsystem., and a read-write check is sent thereafter only if there is a cache hit during the read-only check, and there is the need to modify the cache. Average processor pipeline stall time is reduced even though a cache hit results in an additional coherency check because most coherency checks do not result in a cache hit.

Abstract: A reel for supplying film, a main nip for gripping the front end of this film and moving the film, a tension nip for gripping the film withdrawn by the main nip, and a cutter for cutting the film on the reel side of the tension nip, are provided. Before the film is wound on a coil, the front end of the film is gripped by the main nip and withdrawn from the reel, then the cutter cuts the film while the tension nip grips the film at a predetermined position. The cutting of the film is therefore performed concurrently with the winding of coil. The cut length of film may also be set to, any desired length by varying the distance through which the main nip gripping the film moves.

At least a portion of the mesa (22) related to the base contact (16) is etched around the intrinsic device area (21) and then back-filled with evaporated oxide (30). The base contact pad (16) is then formed over the back-filled oxide (30), thus reducing the extrinsic device area. This process provides a self-aligned etching of a mesa and deposition and lift-off of the backfill oxide (30) in one single photoresist processing step.

The power take-off switch (46) controls energization of the engine starter and power take-off clutch actuator (28). The arrangement is such that the engine (12) can be started only when the switch (46) is off and the power take-off clutch actuator (28) can be energized only when the switch (46) is on. The microprocessor (44) senses the position of the switch (46) and the speed of the engine (12) and initially energizes the relay (48a) to connect battery voltage for energizing the clutch actuator (28) to the switch (46) only when the switch (46) is off and the engine speed is within a predetermined range. When the relay (48a) is energized, the clutch actuator (28) may be energized by turning the switch (46) on. If the switch (46) is turned off, the engine speed must be brought back within the predetermined range before the clutch actuator (28) may again be energized.

The passage has an inlet (402) and an outlet (403) in the same plane and meanders with a predetermined pitch in such a manner that the passage (400) crosses the plane a plurality of times alternately from the lower side of the plane to the upper side and  vice versa  so as to form a plurality of top portions (404-406) and a plurality of bottom portions (407-409). The height (h1-h6) of the top or the bottom of the top or the bottom portion with which the continuous fiber bundle first contacts, as measured from the above plane, is greater than the height of the top or the bottom of the top or the bottom portion with which the continuous fiber bundle last contacts. The height of the top or the bottom of an intermediate top portion or a bottom portion is the same as the height of the top or the bottom of either one of its neighboring top or bottom portions, or diminishes in a downstream direction from the inlet to the outlet. A method for manufacturing a resin structure reinforced with long fibers using such a die is also described. The cross-head die (4) enhances impregnation without causing drawbacks such as rupture of fiber bundles when continuous fiber bundles (5) are impregnated with a thermoplastic resin melt in the die.
