Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for venting pressure from an
integrated circuit package that is sealed with a lid. During a
surface mount process for mounting a ball grid array integrated
circuit package to a circuit board the application of heat
(1) weakens the solder that seals a soldered lid, and (2) increases
vapor pressure within the integrated circuit package. This may
cause the soldered lid to move out of its soldered position.
The present invention solves this problem by providing an
integrated circuit with a solder mask that has a plurality of
openings that form a plurality of vapor pressure vents
through the solder. The vapor pressure vents prevent the occurrence
of any increase in vapor pressure that would shift the soldered lid
out of its soldered position. An alternate embodiment vents
pressure through an epoxy layer that is used to attach a lid by
epoxy.

Abstract: An microprocessor apparatus and method are provided for executing native instructions directly from memory. The apparatus includes instruction translation logic and bypass logic. The instruction translation logic retrieves macro instructions provided via an external instruction bus, and translates each of the macro instructions into associated native instructions for execution. If a first form of a first macro instruction is retrieved, the instruction translation logic directs the microprocessor to enable a native bypass mode and indicates such by asserting a first bit within a control register. The bypass logic is coupled to the instruction translation logic. The bypass logic accesses the first bit within the control register to determine if the native bypass mode has been enabled, and detects wrapper macro instructions and, upon detection of the wrapper macro instructions, disables the instruction translation logic, and provides the native instructions for execution by the microprocessor, thereby bypassing the instruction translation logic.

The intelligent biometric scanner applies a data transformation to an inputted entity biometric sample (310) and a biometric challenge supplied by a security token. The transformed biometric sample is processed by a computer system using the transformed biometric challenge resulting in an transformed entity biometric template which will not match an enrollment template (205) stored inside the security token until the transformation is reversed by the intelligent biometric scanner. Embodiment of the invention are also disclosed which does not require the use of a challenge.

Abstract: The invention relates to the field of domestic network technology. The control of an appliance in the network via a central appliance (10) for the network and having a display unit is normally simplified with the aid of user interfaces. When an audio-video datastream has to be transmitted between two network appliances, then this takes place via data links that are set up. There is then a close relationship between the connected appliances, and this requires frequent switching between the user interfaces of the two appliances. For example, when the user interface for a CD player (13) is displayed, this user interface must first of all be closed and a user interface for an amplifier (14) in the network must be started, usually by selection from the list of all the appliances in the network, in order then to set the volume for the amplifier (14). 
     The aim of the invention is to simplify the control of such appliances (13, 14) which are coupled to one another via a data link that has been set up. This is achieved by providing a field in the user interface for an appliance to be controlled, in which field a list of those appliances which maintain a connection that has been set up is displayed, and the user interface of that appliance (13) is displayed with it. This results in a preselection from the list of all of the appliances in the network, allowing the desired user interface to be selected more quickly.

Abstract: On a first level of the wireless building automation architecture, sensors and associated actuators communicate directly. The sensor performs control processes appropriate for the sensor and regardless of the type of actuator being used. The actuator performs control processes specific to the actuator regardless of the type of sensor being used. By direct wireless communication between sensors and actuators, the opportunity for a failed communications link using a hub and spoke arrangement may be avoided. Communication redundancy is provided by receiving the outputs of sensors at a controller, such as a controller on a second high speed or high bandwidth tier of the architecture. Regional control is implemented in the higher level tier. The higher level tier may override or control operation of components of the lower level tier as needed. The distributed control processing allows for more convenient room level integration.
