Abstract: A welding machine working according to the electric resistance method for producing grids of intersecting longitudinal and cross wires welded at the intersection points, with a plurality of welding heads (K) which are arranged next to one another and which each have a top electrode (2), a bottom electrode (13), one of the electrodes being movable towards the other, a connecting piece, passing through the welding plane, from the bus-bars to the electrode lying on the opposite side of the welding plane, and a welding cylinder (15) applying welding pressure to the movable electrode. To position each welding head (K), the bottom electrode is docked on the top electrode, and a bottom electrode holder (12) is connected to the connecting piece (22), firmly connected to a top electrode holder (1), to form a mechanically rigid welding head (K). This rigid welding head (K) is coupled to a positioning carriage (47) and is moved together with the latter along a trackway (5) running across the width of the welding machine, the welding head (K) acting at the same time in its underside area on a supporting track (41') extending across the width of the welding machine, and all positioned welding heads being fixed by common vertical displacement on the fixed top beam (7) of the welding machine, and each individual welding head being supported on the anvil (16) by means of its vertically displaceable welding cylinder. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit has a trimming code setting circuit so configured that a desired trimming code is set dependently upon whether or not a thin film resistor is cut. The trimming code setting circuit comprises first and second ratio circuits each of which includes a P-channel transistor having a source connected to a high voltage line and a drain connected through a thin film resistor to a low voltage. A gate of the P-channel transistor is biased to allow a predetermined current to flow through the thin film resistor and a source-drain current path of the transistor. A connection node between the drain of the transistor and the thin film resistor forms a voltage output node. The voltage output node of each of the first and second ratio circuits is connected to a comparator, which in turn outputs a logical signal determined on the basis of whether or not the voltage on the voltage output node of the first ratio circuit is higher than the voltage on the voltage output node of the second ratio circuit.

Abstract: A digital phase locked loop is employed to realise an output clock signal (FOUT) from a reference signal (26) having a frequency which is not an integer multiple of the output clock signal frequency. This is realised by employing a programmable divider (24) for dividing the reference signal which is dynamically controlled by a controllably variable base divisor (18). The base divisor control is responsive to the reference signal and to a phase error signal (Δ). The base diversor (ni + Δ) is generated to obtain a desired fractional division of the reference signal frequency and in a manner to minimize the amplitude of any resulting "high" frequency jitter in the output clock signal from the loop.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for printing a color image from a photographic transparency onto a photo sensitive medium is claimed. A plurality of light sources each provide light of a different color when energized. The different color light of each light source has a light intensity level established by an energizing level applied thereto. A light integrator combines the different colored light from the light sources to produce light of a composite color along a primary optical path. The photographic transparency is disposed along the primary optical path such that the composite color light passes through the photographic transparency and produces a projection of the color image from the photographic transparency. An electronic imager is provided for imaging the projected color image of the photographic transparency. An device is provided for exposing the photo sensitive medium with the projected color image. A power supply is provided for energizing the plurality of light sources. The power supply provides a first plurality of predetermined energizing levels to the plurality of light sources respectively to produce a first composite color light that substantially compensates for the sensitivity response of the electronic imager. Alternately, the power supply provides a second plurality of predetermined energizing levels to the plurality of light sources respectively to produce a second composite color light that substantially compensates for the sensitivity response of the photo sensitive medium.

Abstract: An attenuator assembly (38) employs circuitry formed on an attenuator substrate (44) having short voltage divider path lengths that allow the use of low-cost divider selecting relays (58, 60, and 62) while maintaining low VSWR and aberration levels through the attenuator. An interconnect circuit board (80) provides electrical power, control signals, a ground plane shield (108), and probe coding contacts (32) for connection to the attenuator substrate. The circuits on the attenuator substrate are laser-trimmed to obtain predetermined electrical characteristics prior to assembly in a completed attenuator assembly. The attenuator substrate rests on a recess (128) formed in top margin (127) of a cavity (120) formed within a housing (42). A conductive elastomer (102) compressed between the attenuator substrate and the interconnect board electrically connects the interconnect board circuits with the attenuator circuit and forms a conductive shield path (110) between the housing and the ground plane shield of the interconnect board. Multiple attenuator circuits, each in a separate cavity of the housing, share a single interconnect board and conductive elastomer material, thereby resulting in a simple, well shielded, low-cost, attenuator assembly.

Abstract: A communication switching system having a plurality of switching nodes in which each switching node upon initialization completely establishes its own internal configuration. This establishment of internal configuration includes the number and type of switching modules and within each switching module: type of module control processor, type of internal switching network, printed board carriers, type and number of auxiliary circuits, and type and number of link interfaces. Each unit of a switching module reports relevant information to the module control processor; and in turn, the module control processor reports its own information and the information of the other units to a node processor (the main processor within a switching node). Further, each switching node and interfaces of the switching node automatically identifies the other switching nodes connected by communication links and switching paths to those switching nodes. Each interface upon being initialized automatically performs low level initialization operations over the connected link with the far end interface. The interfaces then report the completion of the initialization operations to the connected switching nodes. Upon receiving these reports, each switching node becomes aware of the existence of the links to other switching nodes. Each switching node then exchanges node numbers with the far end switching node connected via interfaces and communication links to establish the hierarchy of switching nodes in the switching system.
