IPC: H03K3/03
Filed: 1999-12-21
Abstract: The oscillator device for low frequency comprises a quartz-crystal resonator (1) and an electronic circuit for maintaining the oscillations of resonator. The quartz-crystal resonator has a unique angle of section defined by an angle (theta) of rotation around the crystallographic axis (x) of quartz-crystal, so that the resonator has at least one fundamental mode of vibration in flexion at a first frequency, and a desired fundamental mode of vibration in torsion at a second frrequency, which is higher than the first frequency. The electronic circuit for maintaining the oscillations of resonator is a circuit with an amplifier-inverter (2), whose transconductance (gm) is determined so that the oscillations take place only according to the fundamental mode of vibrations in torsion. The resonator has also another mode of vibraton in flexion, which is the first overtone of flexion, at a third frequency which is higher than the frequency of fundamental mode of vibration in torsion. The electronic circuit comprises the amplifier-inverter (2) with input (A) and output (B) where capacitors (C1, C2) are connected, respectively, the quartz-crystal resonator (1) connected in the feedback path of amplifier-inverter, and a feedback resistor (RF) connected between the input and the output of amplifier-inverter. The amplifier-inverter (2) is of CMOS type, where the drains of two complementary transistors are connected in common forming the output (B), and the gates are connected in common forming the input (A). The feedback resistance (RF) is determined so to substantially reduce the maximum transconductance with respect to the fundamental mode of vibration in flexion. The resonator is in the form of a tuning fork laid out so that the frequency of fundamental mode of vibration in torsion is substantially equal to a multiple of 32.768 kHz. The oscillator device comprises a divider circuit connected at the output of electronic circuit allowing the derivation of a signal having the frequency of 32.768 kHz. The frequency of fundamental mode of vibration in torsion is substantially equal to 393.216 kHz, and the division is by 12. The resonator and the electronic circuit are mounted in the same casing.

Abstract: A disc ejection device is provided separate from a disk
loading device in a disc device for disc playback or
recording. When a disc loaded on a turntable in a disc
driving section is ejected, it is lifted up by a moving
table, is fed out by a first ejection member, and is then
ejected from an ejection slot by a second ejection member
disposed near the ejection slot. Immediately after the
first ejection member feeds out the disc, it returns to an
initial retracted state so as to allow a new disc to be
loaded into the disc driving section. Accordingly, the
loaded disc and a new disc can be switched inside the disc
device.

Abstract: Calls or other communications requiring a particular skill for handling are placed in
a corresponding skill queue in a call center. One of a plurality of different values is assigned
to each of the communications in the skill queue, with each of the values corresponding to
a particular level of priority for access to the skill. For example, high, mid and low values
may be assigned for communications placed in a technical support skill queue. A given
communication is selected from the queue as a function of the assigned values, time
advantages associated with the values, and the wait times of the communications in the
queue. This communication selection process may include, for example, identifying
communications in the queue which are candidates for out-of-order selection, computing
an adjusted wait time for each of the identified communications, and selecting the
communication with the highest adjusted wait time. The adjusted wait time for a given
communication may be computed as, for example, a sum of the wait time for that
communication and an advantage adjustment associated with the corresponding value. The
selected communication may be placed in a call selection consideration pool for a multi-skill
agent.
