Abstract: A push-pull high voltage oscillator power supply circuit includes a parallel resonant LC circuit made up of a capacitor in parallel with the primary of an output transformer. The output power level of the oscillator is controlled or adjusted by gating a drive circuit of the oscillator in accordance with an appropriate timing scheme so as to control the power delivered to the load over a long time period. The drive circuit is switched on and off so as to control the transformer primary voltage by omitting a number of drive pulses, determined by the desired output pulse level, so that the oscillator self-oscillates and rings out with a decreasing amplitude of the self-­oscillations, but never reaches a complete cut-off of the oscillations before the drive circuit is gated on to refresh the supply of energy to the oscillator. A circuit for monitoring the collector voltages of the switching transistors of the oscillator may be provided to inhibit the supply of drive pulses to the switching transistors when the collector voltages exceed a given voltage level. This limits the power dissipation in the switching transistors.

Abstract: A method of coding an audio signal by using an adaptive orthgonal transformation comprises a step (ST1, ST2) of calculating the sum total of a power of an input audio signal in a time duration of an orthogonal transform length or over the length; a step (ST3) of adaptively controlling the minimum audible level as a threshold level corresponding to the power level on a frequency axis after the orthogonal transformation or on a time axis before them orthogonal transformation; a step (ST4) of excepting samples having a power level under the threshold level from orthogonally transformed samples; and a step (ST5) of quantizing remaining samples. By the method, the threshold level of the minimum audible level is adaptively controlled corresponding to an observed level of an input audio signal. The method has an effect that even if the input audio signal has various power levels, it is possible to usually set the adaptively audible value (the threshold level), thereby effectively reducing a coding amount.

Abstract: In a computer system or process, sync point managers are distributed throughout each real machine for a plurality of execution environments, but all of the execution environments and sync point managers within one real machine share a common recovery facility and recovery log. A common recovery log is used by the recovery facility for all of the execution environments in the system. Different systems are interconnected by a communication facility and each has its own recovery facility and recovery log. A protected conversation can be initiated between the first and second execution environments in the same real machine, and the sync point managers within the respective execution environments coordinate the two-phase commit procedures associated with the protected conversations. A conversation manager within each real machine assists in routing the conversation between the first and second execution environments. Each resource manager, whether residing inside or outside of the real machine, has its own recovery log, but uses the recovery facility of the real machine that accesses the resource.

IPC: H01L21/316

Abstract: An improved process for N-well and P-well creation on a silicon substrate (12). Like the convention process, the improved process begins with the thermal growth of a pad oxide layer (11) on top of the substrate (12). A blanket (unmasked) boron P-well implant creates a boron-bearing P-type layer of substrate (21). Future P-well regions are then masked with photoresist (22). Pad oxide that is not subjacent the photoresist (22) is etched away, as is a portion of the boron-bearing layer (21) beneath the etched pad oxide. These recessed regions, which will become the N-well regions, are then subjected to a phosphorus implant which creates N-well (23). The concentration of the phosphorus implant is high enough to overwhelm any remaining boron atoms in N-well region (23). Following a photoresist strip, a high-temperature drive step in an oxygen ambient is performed, extending the depth of both well regions and creating a thermal oxide layer (24) on top of both P-type layer region (21) and N-well region (23). Growth of the thermal oxide layer (24) heals any imperfections in the silicon crystal structure that were sustained during the silicon etch. The thermal oxide layer (24) is then stripped and a gate oxide layer (25) is grown. This invention significantly reduces the number of steps required to create N-well and P-well regions on a silicon substrate by eliminating the need for a nitride deposition step and a steam oxidation step, both of which are utilized by the conventional process.

Abstract: An optical information reading apparatus such as a bar code reader (1) includes a mirror drive unit (2) rotatable to oscillate a movable scanning mirror (6) simultaneously about a first axis and a second axis perpendicular to the first axis so that a laser beam (301) irradiated from a laser unit (3) is directed by the movable scanning mirror (6) vertically and horizontally to scan parallel arranged plural rows bar codes (9) with a raster scanning pattern. Since the raster scanning pattern can be formed by the combination of a single scanning mirror(86) and a single mirror drive unit (2), the optical information reading apparatus is simple in construction and compact in size. In addition, the number of vertical scanning lines is not limited as opposed to a limited number of vertical scanning lines formed by a polygon mirror incorporated in the conventional apparatus.

Abstract: A lathe with two headstocks and chucks directed towards one another can accommodate workpieces in both chucks in succession or at the same time. So that the workpieces can be machined in both set-ups with tools which are inserted in the tool holders of a tool turret, either tools with a particularly long projection or even tools with a double offset are required for the internal machining. In order to avoid this, it is proposed to equip at least one of the available tool rests with a double tool turret instead of a single tool turret. The axial tool holders of the double tool turret point outwards, that is, away from the other respective tool turret. Standard tools can thereby be used without this adversely affecting the machining possibilities in one of the two set-ups. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus for producing fine line patterns on insulating surfaces utilizing a conductive spring-like cantilever having a pointed tip which is in proximity to the surface to be affected. Electrons emitted from the tip travel toward the insulator surface and cause changes therein or affect molecules located in the proximity of the insulator surface. Tunneling current is not required, and a highly conducting return current path for electrons through the insulator is not necessary. The incident electrons can be used to provide patterned, narrow-width features either by deposition of a material onto the insulator surface, or by producing etching in localized regions of the insulator surface, or by changing the insulator surface so that it can be etched.

Abstract: In a sensorless brushless motor which does not have a position sensor for detecting a rotational position of a rotor, the rotational position thereof is detected by detecting the zero-crossing points of the counter electromotive forces induced in the stator windings of the rotor. A shaping signal obtained by detecting the zero-crossing point of each of the counter electromotive forces and a slant waveform signal generated in response to the shaping signal thus obtained are combined to form a trapezoidal waveform position signal, and an electric current of trapezoidal waveform is supplied in response to the position signal thus obtained to the corresponding one of the stator windings, so that the electric current commutation of the stator windings can be performed smoothly. As a result, the motor can be practically driven with an extremely reduced vibration and noise generation.
