Abstract: L'invention a pour objet d'améliorer la mauvaise lisibilité de la commande d'un appareil électronique, due à un grand nombre de boutons de commande, tout en conservant un grand confort de commande. Pour ce faire, un élément de commande destiné aux appareils électroniques dotés d'un afficheur (2), notamment aux autoradios, comprend un encodeur incrémental (3) pouvant être actionné dans deux directions opposées et une commande (6) destinée à la conversion des impulsions incrémentielles générées en un signal de commande correspondant permettant de régler une grandeur de réglage de l'appareil électronique. L'encodeur incrémental (3) peut être actionné dans une troisième direction pour la sélection d'une autre grandeur de réglage. L'invention est caractérisée en ce que l'actionnement de l'encodeur incrémental (3) dans la troisième direction permet de commuter la commande (6) de telle façon que les impulsions incrémentielles de l'encodeur incrémental (3) actionné dans l'une des deux directions opposées permettent de sélectionner successivement plusieurs grandeurs de réglage apparaissant sur l'afficheur (2) et la commutation inverse de la commande (6) permet de régler la grandeur de réglage sélectionnée à une valeur par les impulsions incrémentales.

Abstract: A checkpoint which describes a base file is produced by dividing the base file into a series of segments; generating for each segment a segment description; and creating from the generated segment descriptions a segment description structure as the checkpoint. The segment descriptions represent segments of the base file at a minimum level of resolution sufficient to represent distinctly the segment. A difference file which defines differences between an updated file and the base file is produced by generating at different levels of resolution segment descriptions for segments in the updated file and comparing the generated segment descriptions with segment descriptions in the checkpoint to identify matching and non-matching segments. Data identifying segments in the updated file that match segments in the base file and data representing portions of the updated file at a minimum level of resolution sufficient to represent distinctly the portion are stored as the difference file. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Reactor for carrying out electrochemical reactions with an electrode and a counter-electrode are known, whereby the electrodes are separated form one another by a capillary gap. Such reactors do not comprise a homogeneous flow rate distribution in the capillary gap which can thus lead to a reduction of selectivity and of local temperature increases. In addition, high ohmic resistance requires the use of conducting salts. The aim of the invention is to provide a reactor in which the voltage drop in the electrolyte is minimized and which can be better optimized over a short resistance time distribution. To this end, the capillary gap comprises at least one channel as a reaction chamber having a height less than or equal to 200 mum. According to the inventive method, the volume flow of the educt current is measured such that the flow of the educt current is laminar over the length of the channel having a height less than or equal to 200 mum.

Abstract: The present invention provides an audio enhancement apparatus and method which spectrally shapes harmonics of the low-frequency information in a pair of audio signals so that when reproduced by a loudspeaker, a listener perceives the loudspeaker as having more acoustic bandwidth than is actually provided by the loudspeaker. The perception of extra bandwidth is particularly pronounced at low frequencies, especially frequencies at which the loudspeaker system produces less acoustic output energy. In one embodiment, the invention also shifts signal from one audio signal to the other audio signal in order to obtain more bandwidth for the available loudspeaker to reduce clipping. In one embodiment, the invention also provides a combined signal path for spectral shaping of the desired harmonics and a feedforward signal path for each pair of audio signals.

Abstract: The present invention is a method and a system for controlling a voltage at a node in a circuit such that the node is prevented from having an unknown floating voltage during a steady state of a clock signal. The circuit includes a transmission gate which has input and output terminals, and operates in response to a clock signal. The node is located proximal to the output terminal of the transmission gate. The method includes the operations of driving the node with an input signal when the transmission gate is open during a first steady state of the clock signal and pulling the node to a fixed voltage when the transmission gate is closed during a second steady state of the clock signal
