Abstract: Xerogels are manufactured from a soln. of water glass brought to pH ≤ 3 with an acid ion exchange resin or a mineral acid. The silicic acid obtained is polycondensed to a SiO2 gel by the addn. of a base. If mineral acid was used in the 1st step, the gel is washed free of electrolyte with H2O. Water is removed from the gel by extractive distillation with an organic solvent that forms an azeotrope that separates into 2 phases on cooling. The water content is reduced to ≤ 5 wt.%. The resulting gel is dried at below the critical temp. and below the critical pressure of the organic solvent used for extractive distillation. äU

Abstract: A method and apparatus for configuring a system that includes a plurality of interconnected components (2, 4, 6; 40-45; 51-57; 132) that each supports service parameters for communicating with other components in the system. A determination is made as to which components support service parameters that are compatible, and groups of components having compatible service parameters are identified. Adjacent components exchange information frames that identify their service parameters. Each component compares its service parameters with those of its adjacent components to determine whether they are compatible, updating its own service parameters if necessary. Any component that updates its service parameters issues another information frame. Thus, information frames are exchanged until it is determined which components support compatible service parameters, and what service parameters are to be used for communicating among those components. Additionally, a unique address is automatically assigned to every port in the system. Control over the entire range of available addresses is initially granted to a master component, which assigns unique addresses to its own ports, and then relinquishes control over ranges of addresses to other components which each becomes the managers of the addresses over which it is granted control. Each address manager assigns unique addresses to its ports, and if any extra addresses are available, relinquishes control over those extra addresses to another component.

Abstract: The apparatus and method of the present invention improves precision of measuring a yaw rate by mutually making up for a drawback of a yaw rate sensor for directly measuring the yaw rate and a drawback of a structure for estimating the yaw rate. An estimated yaw rate operation element (51) gives an estimated yaw rate γe based on a steering angle θf of front wheels, a vehicle speed V, a left front wheel speed vFL, and a right front wheel speed vFR measured by respective sensors (41-47). A low-pass filter (53) eliminates a high frequency component included in the signal of estimated yaw rate γe, while a high-pass filter (55) eliminates a low frequency component included in a signal of measured yaw rate gs measured by a yaw rate sensor (49). An adder (57) compounds an output signal of the low-pass filter (53) with an output signal of the high-pass filter (55). A resulting yaw rate output from the adder (57) includes a component of the estimated yaw rate γe in a low frequency domain where the yaw rate sensor has large or serious measurement errors due to a zero-point drift or the like, and a component of the measured yaw rate gs in a high frequency domain where the estimated yaw rate has large or serious estimation errors.

Abstract: In order to improve the feeling of comfort of a person in a room, the operation of a heating or cooling apparatus (10,12) is modulated about a target value. The target value is set by control means (72C) so that the average power consumed by the heating or cooling apparatus, during modulated operation, is less that would be the case if the heating or cooling apparatus were to operate unmodulated to heat or cool the room to an input desired temperature. Thus, the target temperature is set above the input desired temperature when cooling is required and below the desired temperature when heating is required.

Abstract: The procedure consists of applying at least one layer of fritted enamel barbotine to the article (I), onto which, before the layer is baked, the decoration is applied in localised zones. The decoration is applied to the barbotine layer after drying, and is in the form of a paste made from fitted enamel, pigments and a binding agent which can be melted or reticulated by ultraviolet rays. The paste (2) is heated as it is applied, e.g. through a heated metal screen (3), after which the barbotine and decorative layers are baked to vitrify them. In a variant the paste can be applied by means of an engraved photographic plate, or a nozzle which applies the decoration in droplets. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A contactless method and apparatus for real-time in-situ monitoring of a chemical etching process during etching of at least one wafer in a wet chemical etchant bath are disclosed. The method comprises the steps of providing two conductive electrodes in the wet chemical bath, wherein the two electrodes are proximate to but not in contact with a wafer; monitoring an electrical characteristic, e.g the resistance between the two electrodes as a function of time in the etchant bath of the at least one wafer, wherein a prescribed change in the electrical characteristic is indicative of a prescribed condition of the etching process; and recording a plurality of values of the electrical characteristic as a function of time during etching. From the plurality of recorded values and corresponding times, instantaneous etch rates, average etch rates, and etching end points may be determined with reference to the attached drawings, starting point (102) corresponds to the start of the etching process. Intermediate region (103) of the curve corresponds to thinning of the film during the etch process. Inflexion point (108) corresponds approximately to a point in time at which all features are etched to nominal size in an essentially uniform film. Flat region (110) of the curve corresponds to the period during which more than the nominal or desired amount of material to be removed by etching is being removed from the substrate, for example, by an undercutting process. Such a method and the apparatus therefor are particularly useful in a wet chemical etch station.

Abstract: An integrated circuit having a normal operating mode and a special operating mode, such as a special test mode, is disclosed. The special test mode is enabled by a series of signals, such as overvoltage excursions at a terminal, rather than by a single such excursion, so that it is less likely that the special test mode is entered inadvertently, such as due to noise or power-down and power-up of the device. The circuit for enabling the test mode includes a series of D-type flip-flops, each of which are clocked upon detection of the overvoltage condition together with a particular logic level applied at another terminal; multiple series of flip-flops may be provided for multiple special test modes. In addition, sequential codes may be used for further security. Logic for evaluating both a sequence of codes received in parallel from a number of address terminals, and also a sequence of serial codes received at single address terminal, are disclosed. Additional features include the provision of a power-on reset circuit which locks out the entry into the test mode during power-up of the device. Acknowledgment of the entry into test mode is provided by the presentation of a low impedance at output terminals while the device is not enabled; chip enable of the device causes the device to exit the test mode. Once in test mode, the output enable terminal of the device can provide a chip enable function.
