Abstract: There is disclosed a transition detection, validation and memorization (TDVM) circuit that detects the position of a transition in a stream of serially transmitted binary data (bits) that are over sampled and generates a control signal indicating which sampled signal represents the best the data. The incoming data stream is over sampled by the n phases of a multiple phase clock signal. The frequency of the multiphase clock signal is the same or half of the frequency of the incoming data for stability reasons. The n over sampled signals (S) are fed in the TDVM circuit which is comprised of three sections. The first section detects the transition at the positions of two consecutive sampled signals according to a specific signal processing which requires to perform twice, three comparisons on six consecutive over sampled signals (the central one being excluded at each time). The second section validates the second detection as the transition position. The third section memorizes the validated transition position and generates a control signal that is used to recover the data. For instance, this control signal can be used in a sample selection/data alignment circuit to select the over sampled signal that is the best suited for subsequent processing

Abstract: In a liquid downhole drilling machine, the guiding bushing ( 31 ) for the drill bit is rotatably journaled in the housing ( 11, 12 ) and, via a one-way coupling ( 29 ), coupled to a turning sleeve ( 22 ) that has axial ridges ( 24 ) that bound a number of chambers ( 25, 26, 27 ) and form turning pistons for turning the turnable sleeve to and fro. A number of these chambers are coupled to be pressurized and depressurized simultaneously with said pressure chamber ( 47 ) with the piston area ( 46 ) for urging the piston hammer ( 30 ) forwards. As a result, the drill bit ( 13 ) will be indexed a defined angle between each impact so that the button inserts of the drill bit will change contact points with the rock between every impact and fragment the rock efficiently. The drill tube is not rotated.

Abstract: Mobile telephone systems are widely used in the transport of valuables. Such systems are a suitable means of providing protection, but are vulnerable. The signals from mobile terminals can be criminally interfered with/jammed, thereby depriving the terminals' possessors of protection. The present invention remedies this by, irrespective of whether of not there is any voice or data transmission, having each mobile terminal transmit signals regularly, randomly or when triggered by an event. The regularly or randomly transmitted signals are registered in the system's switching center. Where a signal is missing, information on the absence is, after logic analysis in the switching center, immediately and automatically transmitted to the alarm reception center. In the present invention, it is an extra advantage to have mobile telephone position monitored by satellite and to have satellite data directly added to the signals from the mobile terminals. In the event of signal failure, alarm reception can then immediately geographically pinpoint mobile terminals or their positions immediately before the break.

Abstract: A quartz crystal oscillator comprises a balanced circuit with a quartz crystal resonator device connected in series resonance across a balanced, low-impedance node within a sustaining amplifier. A phase modulator such as a quadrature modulator is included in the feedback loop to allow programming of the loop phase shift thereby to alter the frequency point on the crystal resonance curve at which the circuit oscillates. The in-phase loop signal is hardlimited while the quadrature loop signal component is not hardlimited with the effect that the frequency control curve slope is more accurately defined. An active neutralization of the crystal's parasitic shunt capacitance is disclosed for obtaining a linear frequency control curve.
