Patent EP-0604209-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OKANOUE KAZUHIRO C O NEC CORPO
IPC: H04L25/30
Filed: 1993-12-22
Abstract: In a digital data demodulating apparatus, a sampling circuit samples a received signal at a speed N × K (N > 1, K > 1; integers) times a symbol rate to output received signal sequences. N received signal sequence selection circuits estimate channel impulse responses from the respective received signal sequences to obtain channel state data, and output a control pulse and the estimated channel impulse response values. A received signal sequence selection controller outputs a switch control signal on the basis of the channel state data. N selectors select demodulation received signal sequence candidates from the received signal sequences on the basis of the control pulse. A first switch selects/outputs a received signal sequence to be demodulated on the basis of the switch control signal. A second switch selects/outputs an estimated channel impulse response value estimated from the received signal sequence to be demodulated on the basis of the switch control pulse. A demodulation circuit performs demodulation upon reception of the outputs from the first and second switches.

Abstract: In a nonvolatile semiconductor memory, after a write or an erase operation, a read operation for verification is performed by applying a voltage at a first verification level (V2), which is lower than an applied voltage for a normal read operator, or a voltage at a second verification level (V3), which is higher than the applied voltage (V1). The nonvolatile semiconductor memory comprises: an address-transition-detection circuit (1); a supply voltage detection circuit (3) for generating an initialization transition signal at the rise of a supply voltage when the supply voltage has reached a first supply voltage transition threshold level (V4) higher than the first verification level (V2); and a transition operation circuit (2) for performing operations such as a bit line charge-up in accordance with the address transition signal and initialisation transition signal. 
     In such a nonvolatile memory, stored data can be properly read at power-on even if the memory is designed to achieve faster operating speeds for performing operations such as bit line charge-up by detecting an address signal change and the turning-on of the power.

Abstract: The invention relates to bearings which can be produced cost-effectively and have considerable play between the bearing components. When varying transverse forces act upon the bearing components knocking and flapping noises are to be expected here. The object of the invention is to prevent noises in bearings of this kind, which contain play, using simple means. The invention consists in principle in that the bearing components are to be held relative to one another under prestress which is set such that it is larger than the occurring transverse forces so that even when these forces occur the bearing components remain in engagement with one another. Advantageous developments are concerned with using the damping element to eliminate the play between a plurality of bearing elements which act on one another, the use of the damping element at the same time as a stop for pivoting movements of a lever and the adaptation of the elasticity of the damping element by virtue of recesses in the damping component. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device using a command control system comprises a protect cell (116) composed of a nonvolatile memory cell, a protect sense amplifier circuit (117) for reading the data from the protect cell, a high-voltage sensing circuit (114) for supplying a voltage during a programmed operation such as a writing or an erasing operation, a protect control circuit (115) for controlling the protect cell, and a control circuit for reading the data from the protect cell and according to the read-out data, controlling the command to the memory cell array. Even if the device malfunctions due to an erroneous command entered as a result of power noise or command noise during command input, the destruction of the data in the memory cells can be prevented, which consequently increases the operating margin, improving the reliability.

Abstract: A control circuit for reducing current flow through the UV light bulb (16;120) of a water purification unit when water is not flowing through the unit. In a first embodiment, the control circuit includes an RC shunt (22) selectively connected in parallel with the UV bulb, thereby selectively adding a positive impedance in parallel with the negative impedance of the bulb. In a second embodiment, the control circuit includes an impedance (152) selectively connected in series with the bulb ballast. In either embodiment, the impedance circuit is actuated in response to a water flow switch. When water is flowing through the unit, the impedance is removed so that full current is delivered to the bulb enhancing UV intensity. When water is not flowing through the unit, the impedance is added so that current flow is reduced.

Abstract: A method and system for automatic or semi-automatic defibrillation using redundant processing is provided. In a preferred embodiment, two microprocessors each separately analyze electrocardiogram signals from a patient in order to separately determine whether the patient should be treated. If both microprocessors determine that the patient should be treated, a treatment subsystem defibrillates the patient by delivering a defibrillation charge to the patient. In a semi-automatic embodiment, the treatment subsystem only delivers a defibrillation charge to the patient if a human operator has responded to a visual indication that the patient should be treated by manually activating the defibrillator.

Abstract: An option attach connector has a first indicator bit combination that alerts the device that a public switched telephone network connection has been made to it. The presence of the first indicator bit combination is a signal to the device that telephone, FAX, and E-MAIL communications applications are to be conducted over a PSTN link. The presence of the first indicator bit combination invokes a stored computer program to provide appropriate connections between the PSTN link and the telephone, FAX, and modem hardware in the device. The connections are made by an audio multiplexer that receives control signals from the system CPU, while executing the stored computer program. The program determines the communications application selected by the user and selectively configures the PSTN link to be connected to the either the ear piece and microphone for voice communications, or to the FAX/modem for FAX communications, or to the modem alone for E-MAIL communications. The absence of the option attach connector invokes a default indicator bit combination that alerts the device that a cellular telephone network connection is desired by the user. The presence of the default indicator bit combination is a signal to the device that telephone, FAX, and E-mail communications applications are to be conducted over a cellular network.
