Patent EP-0582979-A3 (EP)
IPC: H04N11/16
Filed: 1993-08-06
Abstract: A PAL encoder comprises phase converter (1), first and 
second low-pass filters (2,3), a burst signal adder (4), a 
chrominance subcarrier generator (6), and a modulator (5). 
The phase converter (1) converts digital first and second 
color-difference signals into digital U-axis and V-axis 
signals. The first and second low-pass filters (2,3) pass 
low-frequency components of the digital U-axis and V-axis 
signals to produce band-rejected U-axis and V-axis signals, 
respectively. The burst signal adder (4) adds a 
predetermined burst signal to the band-rejected U-axis and 
V-axis signals to produce burst-added U-axis and V-axis 
signals, respectively. The chrominance subcarrier 
generator (6) outputs digital sine and cosine signals of 
the chrominance subcarrier. The modulator (5) multiplies 
the burst-added U-axis signal by the sine signal and the 
burst-added V-axis signal by the cosine signal and adds the 
multiplied results to produce a digital chroma signal.

Title: Method of testing interconnections between integrated circuits in a circuit
Inventor: WILLIAMS MICHAEL J
IPC: G11C29/12
Filed: 1993-08-19
Abstract: A method of testing the interconnections between integrated circuits in a circuit uses latches, respectively connected to the terminals of the integrated circuit, which are connectable in series as a shift register so that a test pattern of bits can be entered into the latches. The pattern of bits is transmitted through the interconnections to other latches and then shifted out of the circuit along the shift register. Discrepancies between the input and output patterns indicate malfunctioning interconnections. The method is extended to apply to a microprocessor in the circuit, the microprocessor having a program that enables it to use its RAM to act as the latches connected to the other integrated circuits. The program may be stored in on-chip memory in the microprocessor and where that memory is RAM, EPROM or EEPROM it may be erased therefrom after successful testing of the circuit. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Filed: 1996-05-14
Abstract: In an electronically controlled fuel injection
apparatus performing a prestroke control, a prestroke
amount is reduced or the prestroke control is inhibited
when the engine is operated under a condition of high-speed
and small injection amount. The prestroke amount is
determined based on an engine speed and a fuel injection
amount. The prestroke amount is decreased as an engine
speed of the diesel engine is increased and as the target
fuel injection amount is decreased so that an
uncontrollable state of a fuel injection amount is
eliminated when the diesel engine is operated in a high-speed
and small injection amount condition. An execution
of the prestroke control may be inhibited when it is
determined that the diesel engine is operated in a high-speed
and small injection amount condition which causes an
uncontrollable state of the fuel injection amount.
