Abstract: A multi-section laser diode control system comprising a multi-section laser diode (10), microprocessor controller (24), digital-to-analogue converter (28), driver circuit (30) and wavelength locker (14) is modified by inclusion of a locking circuit (40) which generates an analogue correction signal  DELTA Vph responsive to measurements of the laser output made by the wavelength locker. The analogue correction signal is added to the preset phase voltage Vph asserted by the microprocessor controller to provide fast feedback that bypasses the microprocessor controller. This novel feedback is made possible by avoiding the use of the standard prior art control algorithm which requires a division calculation to be performed. Instead, novel control algorithms based purely on additions, subtractions and multiplications are used. The laser can thus be locked to its target output frequency without having to place slow analogue-to-digital and digital-to-analogue converters in the feedback control path. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel methods for stabilizing aqueous deacylation, via use of buffers in the production of sucralose. The present invention provides a process for producing sucralose from an acyl-sucralose compound whereby the acyl-sucralose compound is deacylated in the presence of a buffering agent, which stabilizes the pH of the feed mixture and decreases the accumulation of undesired anhydro compounds. Further, the present invention provides a process whereby the acyl-sucralose compound is deacylated directly either prior to or after removal of the tertiary amide reaction vehicle from the neutralized chlorination feed mixture. An aqueous solution of sucralose including salts and other compounds is produced, from which sucralose is recovered by extraction and purified by crystallization.

Abstract: A hardware accelerator is used to execute a floating-point byte-code in an information processing device. For a floating-point byte-code, a byte-code accelerator BCA feeds an instruction stream for using a FPU to a CPU. When the FPU is used, first the data is transferred to the FPU register from a general-purpose register, and then an FPU operation is performed. For data, such as a denormalized number, that cannot be processed by the FPU, in order to call a floating-point math library of software, the processing of the BCA is completed and the processing moves to processing by software. In order to realize this, data on a data transfer bus from the CPU to the FPU is snooped by the hardware accelerator, and a cancel request is signaled to the CPU to inhibit execution of the FPU operation when corresponding data is detected in a data checking part.

A method for lancing a target site includes providing the lancing device describe above and contacting the pressure tip of the lancing device with the target site. The pressure tip is then urged towards the target site to create a target site bulge with the floating probe of the lancing device floating on a surface of the target site bulge. Next, the target site bulge is lanced while the floating probe operatively interacts with the lance carriage to control a penetration depth of the lancet.

The swivelling fingers are pressed by springs into their action position in which they project over the facing surfaces of the holding plates and fit into receiving openings of the articles when articles are moved by the stacking wheel. Control plates are assigned to the stacking wheel and engage with their ramp edges the concave, downwardly pointing surface of the swivelling fingers to swivel them into their readiness position which does not project to the inside over the holding plates.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for switching a voice codec of a mobile communication terminal are disclosed. The mobile communication terminal includes various types of voice codecs, and when the terminal requests a voice call between different types of communication systems, the communication network provides information on a type of the voice codec of a destination terminal to the terminal. Then, the terminal selects a voice codec corresponding to the information on the type of the voice codec of the destination terminal and transmits/receives voice data to/from the destination terminal through the selected voice codec. Thus, a transcoding process does not need to be performed on the voice data between the origination terminal and the destination terminal, and accordingly, voice quality can be enhanced, a delay of a voice transfer can be reduced, and a load of the communication network can be reduced.
