IPC: H05K3/42

Abstract: Compositions which combine, in functionally stable aqueous solution form, multiple functionalities required in the fabrication of printed circuits, such as neutralizing of oxidizing species remaining on surfaces to be metallized as a result of desmearing or etch-back or other like treatment of through-holes with strong oxidizing agents, and/or micro-etching of copper surfaces to enhance adhesion thereto of electroless or electrolytic metal plating, and/or cleaning of soils, oils, etc. from copper surfaces for similar purpose, and/or conditioning through-holes to enhance and uniformize their absorption of catalyst prior to electroless metallization. These compositions enable significant reduction in the number of steps and processing time associated with conventional printed circuit fabrication, and importantly eliminate traditional intervening rinsing requirements, with consequent reduction in waste water treatment needs.

IPC: H04L12/56

Abstract: A telecommunications network of the type having links with long propagation delay uses an asynchronous transfer mode in which small, fixed-length blocks of information (cells) are transferred at very high speed. Each long-haul hop within the network is phase-locked to a fixed period, and time slots of a granularity of one cell are pre-allocated to the virtual circuits. The network operates in a near-synchronous (plesiochronous) manner. By pre-allocating cells, it is assured that the cells will not arrive at a faster rate than that at which each receiving node can forward them on to the next hop. When bursts of heavy traffic occur, the network responds by slowing or limiting access, rather than by loss of data at intermediate nodes due to buffer overflow.

Abstract: In the present invention separation is effected by means of a convergent-divergent nozzle, in which the divergent portion is convex. A supersonic flow of a gas-droplets mixture is introduced into the convergent-divergent nozzle and at the throat thereof a normal shock wave occurs and results to an abrupt change in the speed and direction of gas flow, which becomes subsonic and follows the geometry of the convex divergent portion. The droplets are inertially separated from the gas stream and two flow zones emerge, one zone free from droplets and one enriched with droplets, these two zones being subsequently separated by a separator plate (16). Henceforth, a conventional subsonic separator is used to receive the liquid formed by the separated droplets, whereas the zone of gas flow being free from droplets converge to be subsequently used in any desired manner.

IPC: C12M1/10
Filed: 1992-04-03
Abstract: In a horizontal reactor with rotating drum which is substantially filled with biomass-covered packing elements, the degradation efficiency and the technical optimisation of flow are improved when the drum is divided in the axial direction into at least two chambers by transverse walls which retain the packing elements so that material once present in a chamber remains there throughout operation but which have a liquid-permeable perforation, which are formed, in particular, by bar screens which project from the transverse wall on both sides into the adjacent chambers in each case, are formed by a ring of bars and are in the form of a tubular connector with terminal closure and which are partly filled with sharp-edged packing bodies. Axial ribs projecting inwards from the drum and offset from chamber to chamber are provided. Deflecting plates are preferably located within the individual chambers and have, towards the drum casing, an annular slit for the flowing liquid of, in particular, 5 - 10% of the drum diameter. The division into chambers makes graduation of the chamber size possible, it decreasing in particular towards the liquid outlet. It is furthermore possible for the support materials to differ in particle size or nature from chamber to chamber. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A fuel injection control apparatus that is used in a diesel engine or the like, which controls the fuel injection rate by adjusting the injection valve opening pressure of the injection nozzle. A plurality of different thresholds are set for a signal that corresponds to the injection rate in order to identify the reference injection start time and the initial injection rate control period through comparison of the signal corresponding to the injection rate against these thresholds. The injection timing and the injection valve opening pressure of the injection nozzle are controlled in such a manner that these measured values will match the optimal initial injection rate control period and the optimal reference injection start time which are stored in memory in advance for individual sets of operating conditions. With this, the optimal injection state can be achieved during the initial stage (initial injection rate control period ) of the injection period.

Abstract: An arithmetic datastream (Cj) representative of an original sequence (S N ··· S 2 S 1 ) of input bi-level symbols (Si) is transmitted, before an information code (Kp) carrying information on a total length (N) of the input symbols, from a coding subsystem (10) to a decoding subsystem (40). A register (45) shifts out respective transmitted portions (Cj) of the datastream to an arithmetic decoder (46). where they are decoded into a relatively long symbol sequence ( ···S N+1 S N  ··· S 2 S 1 ) starting with the same sequence as the orioginal sequence. The decoded symbol sequence is output through an output circuit (47) which counts symbols (Si) in that sequence. The register (45) holds a final portion (C n  ··· C n-15 ) of the datastream. The information code (Kp) is decoded by an information decoder (44), which informs the output circuit (47) of decoded information (N). before flushing the register (45) to input the final portion of the datastream to the arithmetic decoder. The output symbol sequence (S N  ··· S 2 S 1 ) becomes equal in symbol number to the original sequence, when the output circuit (47) stops output.

Abstract: In the structure of the device of the invention, a supper-lattice buffer layer (6-1, 6-2) is formed between the undoped layer (2) and doped layers (1, 3). This super-lattice buffer layer serves as a carrier- piling up layer in place of the undoped layer in the conventional device. Thus, the amounts of the piled-up carriers in the undoped layer can be greatly reduced and hence no band filling effect occurs in the undoped layer. Consequently, an optical device having a flat frequency characteristic can be produced without losing its modulating characteristic.
