IPC: G10L25/24
Filed: 1996-01-03
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FR96/00006 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 22, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 22, 1997 PCT Filed Jan. 3, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/21220 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 11, 1996A linear prediction analysis is performed for each frame of a speech signal to determine the coefficients of a short-term synthesis filter and an open-loop analysis is performed to determine a degree of frame voicing. At least one closed-loop analysis is performed for each sub-frame to determine an excitation sequence which, when applied to the short-term synthesis filter, generates a synthetic signal representative of the speech signal. Each closed-loop analysis uses the impulse response of a filter consisting of the short-term synthesis filter and a perceptual weighting filter, by truncating the impulse response to a truncation length that is no greater than the number of samples per sub-frame and is dependent on the energy distribution of the response and the degree of voicing of the frame.

Abstract: On obtient une réduction importante du courant de crête rencontré lors d'un processus d'effacement d'un dispositif à mémoire flash, en sélectionnant, lors de l'effacement, la tension de source (ARVSS) en fonction du courant attendu, avec transition de bande à bande par effet tunnel, et rencontré lors du procédé. Au début du procédé, on choisit une tension de source basse, suffisante cependant pour provoquer un effacement important, tout en supprimant, dans une portion de la matrice, le courant avec transition de bande à bande par effet tunnel, et dans la seconde partie du procédé d'effacement, on utilise une tension de source plus élevée, laquelle assure un effacement réussi de la matrice, sans que cette tension ne dépasse les spécifications du courant de crête (IPP) de l'alimentation en énergie (VS) utilisée avec le dispositif.

Title: Process for the variable limitation of a flat flow channel and process for extracting a mass channel of variable geometry
Inventor: GROSS HEINZ DR-ING
IPC: B29C48/31
Filed: 1996-09-25
Abstract: A device is claimed for varying a flat flow channel (1) with a width to height (h) ratio of more than 10. At least one channel wall is flexible and adjusters are arranged across the channel (1) width on the rear side of the flexible wall allowing channel height (h) to be varied over the whole width or parts of the width. The flexible wall consists of an assembly (2) of flat plates (3, 4, 5) lying against each other, the lower plate (3) being welded onto the flow channel body (6) and forming a common wall with the flow channel (1). A variation of the device with the stated width/height ratio is fitted to the end of a die for producing a variable thickness extrudate and includes two adjusting systems (13, 14) acting on one wall of the device. The first adjuster system produces a uniform wall adjustment over the whole channel width and the other adjustment system provides localised adjustment. Also claimed is a process for extruding a material strip with a thickness which varies either locally or across the whole width uses a die with a flow channel and an outlet with one or more adjustable walls by which the flow rate through the channel is varied by two separate adjusting systems each with its own control system to vary flow channel height either in specific areas, across the whole width or both simultaneously.

The condition may include a situation where the temperature of the electronic device is detected to have exceeded a thermal band. The condition may also include a situation where the electronic device is detected to be idle for a selected percentage of its run time.

Abstract: The process for producing ROM cells, each including a MOS transistor having two first impurity type diffusions (1, 2) which are formed in a second impurity type semiconductor substrate and which are separated by a channel with an overlying gate, involves forming a thick oxide zone in each future first diffusion (1) zone so that each first diffusion is produced as a first part (1a) adjoining the channel and a second part at the transistor periphery, the two parts being separated by the thick oxide. Also claimed are (i) an inactive IC memory, in which each memory cell includes a transistor having two first impurity type diffusions (1, 2), formed in a second impurity type semiconductor substrate and separated by a channel with an overlying gate, and an electrical contact (C1, C2) is provided on each diffusion and the gate for read voltage (Vg, Vd, Vs) application. The improvement is that (a) a virgin cell has a thick oxide zone (OX) separating the first diffusion into a first part (1a) adjoin ing the channel and a second peripheral part bearing the electrical contact (C1) of the first diffusion; and (b) a programmed cell has its first diffusion as a continuous zone; and (ii) a programmable logic circuit containing the above memory cells.

As the piston rotates the recesses (11) formed by the asymmetric design of the walls change their volume. Communicating ducts (13',13'') in the slider parts (8',8'') communicate with each other when the slider parts slip over a pitch of the asymmetric walls to thereby form a connection between adjoining recesses. The number of sliders corresponds to the number of recesses.
