Inventor: KO JUNG-WAN
IPC: G11B20/10
Filed: 2001-04-06
Abstract: A method of verifying defect management area (DMA) information
of an optical disc upon initialization without certification,
and a test apparatus for performing the same. The method
includes generating as test information, defect management
information, which is generated after performing initialization
without certification on a blank test disc to which no data is
written, and verifying the test information using reference
test information for the initialization without certification
to provide a test result. Accordingly, it can be easily
verified that a recording and reproducing apparatus properly
translates and processes DMA information which is generated
after initialization without certification, using a blank test
disc.

Abstract: An apparatus for winding tape includes a cantilevered support arm for supporting in
a winding position a core onto which the tape is to be wound with a surface drive roller
pivotal to a position engaging the outside of the package for causing rotation of the
package in the driving position about a longitudinal axis of the arm. A lay-on roller
directs the tape on to the core such that the rotation of the core acts to wind the tape into
the package. The lay-on roller is driven by a lead screw in movement longitudinally of
the axis to form a generally cylindrical package structure of the tape. With the lay-on
roller in a retracted position to one side, the finished package on the support arm is
moved by a rotatable drive head rotating about a vertical axis from the winding position
away from the drive roller to a doffing position and simultaneously an empty core is
moved from the doffing position over the drive roller to the winding position. The
apparatus includes four winding positions at the comers of a rectangular frame (11,12,13) so that
each package at each of the positions is moved simultaneously to the doffing position
outside the frame for ready access by an operator.

Abstract: The present invention is to provide an electronic
device protection circuit which can reliably inhibit a
wide range of overvoltage from being applied to a
secondary battery, a semiconductor device or any other
electronic device, and can protect the protection circuit
itself from being degraded or damaged. Further, the
electronic device protection circuit of which circuit
configuration is extremely simple is provided. The
electronic device protection circuit which inhibits a
voltage exceeding the rated voltage of the electronic
device from being applied thereto, comprises a positive
temperature characteristic device and a diode which are
connected in series and arranged in close proximity to
each other thereon. As a result, the electronic device
protection circuit can protect the electronic devices
such as a secondary battery protection IC from being
damaged or degraded.

Abstract: An electronic unit (1) mounted in a vehicle comprises a controller
unit (2). The electronic unit (1) is tested by a test device (3) using periodic
communications cycled therebetween. A frame of order signal is
formulated by loading data designating several ports or the like and
transmitted from the test device (3) to the controller unit (2). The latter
processes the order signal (11, 12, 13) and returns the processed results to
the test device (3). At least part of the above data are shortened from 8 bits
to 4 bits, and several ports and the like are tested in one cycle of the
periodic communications. The test time is thus reduced for this electronic
unit.

Abstract: A method is disclosed to operate a sigma-delta modulator of a type that includes
a quantizer. The method has steps of (a) sampling an amplitude of an input signal
to the sigma-delta modulator; and (b) controlling the switching of a capacitance
bank in accordance with the sampled amplitude of the input signal for generating
a dither signal at an input of the quantizer. The dither signal is generated to have
a pseudorandom amplitude that is inversely proportional to the sampled
amplitude of the input signal. The step of controlling and generating operates a
linear feedback shift register to switch individual ones of a plurality of
capacitances of the bank of capacitances in and out of a capacitance network. In
one embodiment the step of operating the at least one linear feedback shift
register turns a linear feedback shift register clock signal on and off as a function
of the amplitude of the input signal. In one embodiment the step of sampling
operates at least one window detector, and the dither signal is turned off and on
depending on a relationship between the amplitude of the input signal and
voltage thresholds of the window detector. In another embodiment the step of
sampling operates a rectifier that rectifies the input signal to provide a rectified
output signal, and the step of controlling and generating pseudorandomly applies
the rectified output signal to the bank of capacitances for controlling an amount
of current that is transferred between the input of the quantizer and the bank of
capacitances.

Abstract: It is objective of the invention to provide a highly reliable control apparatus and method which reduces the amount of calculation required for both learning of an input/output relationship and actual control as well as prevent inappropriate outputs from being generated for inputs which have been never learned. According to one aspect of the invention, pairs of an input pattern vector for learning and a target output are distributed to a class based on the target output. Then, a correspondence between each element of the input pattern vector for learning and the target output is learned only in that class, and a distribution function is calculated for distributing a new input pattern vector for learning to that class. After the completion of this learning, the distribution function is used to determine which class a new input pattern vector detected by a sensor belongs to. Finally, an output is calculated according to the learning result of that class. Therefore, since the range of the outputs corresponding to the inputs may be limited, reliability of the control is improved.

Abstract: The present invention provides a memory control
apparatus capable of efficiently reducing power consumption. The
memory control apparatus controls power consumption for refreshing
on a unit region-by-unit region basis. A determination section
(22) receives an allocate request from an application and
determines whether or not data requires refreshing based on the
allocate request. Next, a memory allocating section (23)
allocates a memory region within a first memory bank to data having
been determined to require refreshing and allocates a memory region
within a second memory bank to data having been determined to require
no refreshing. A memory control section (25) specifies the first
memory bank as a refresh region for refreshing and specifies the
second memory region as a non-refresh region which is prevented
from being refreshed.
