Abstract: A cache memory system for use in a motion estimation system is disclosed. The
system includes: a first cache memory defined in terms of a first width and a first
height, and a second cache memory defined in terms of a second width and a
second height, wherein said second height is less than said first height, the cache
memory system being operable in one of two modes: the first mode being
characterised by banks of memory from the second cache memory being
concatenated vertically such that their concatenated height is at least equal to the
first height, and said concatenated banks being arranged to be appended to the
width of the first cache memory to form a single contiguous address space; and the
second mode being characterised by banks of memory from the first and second
cache being stacked vertically, and being arranged to be addressed as two separate
address spaces.

Filed: 2003-08-08
Abstract: A steering shaft assembly (12) has a tubular main body (14) and a shaft (16), with a spring (18) and a sleeve (20) disposed at least partially therebetween. The shaft (16) is disposed at least partially in the tubular main body (14) and the sleeve (20) is disposed at least partially between the spring (18) and the main body (14). The sleeve (20) acts to urge the spring (18) into frictional contact with the shaft (16) to impart an axial resistance force supporting the shaft (16) against axial displacement in response to application of an axial force on the shaft (16) less than the axial resistance force. The sleeve (20) enables axial displacement of the shaft in response to application of an axial collapsing force exceeding the axial resistance force. In another construction of a steering shaft assembly (12), a shaft (16) is disposed at least partially in the tubular main body (14) and the spring (18) is disposed at least partially in the tubular main body (14) between the tubular main body (14) and the shaft (16). The spring (18) acts to impart a radial load between the shaft (16) and the tubular main body (14). The spring (18) has at least one undulation (78, 80) that provides for linear frictional contact between the spring (18) and the shaft (16) in a circumferential direction about the shaft (16) to resist torsional rotation of the shaft (16) relative to the tubular main body (14).

Abstract: The continuity of the coil (11) of the actuating solenoid (9) of an electric power switch (1) is detected through utilization of a signaling device (45), such as a light emitting diode (LED) that monitors energization of a dc power supply (25) fed from the source side of the coil (11). A circuit (51) energized from the other side of the coil (11) generates a dc voltage V2 that is applied to the gate electrode of an electronic switch (47) shunting the LED (45). The voltage V2 is greater than the dc supply voltage to bias the electronic switch (47) off so that the LED (45) is illuminated when there is continuity through the coil (11). If the coil (11) fails, V2 will be zero and the electronic switch (47) is turned on to short circuit the LED (45) to signal the failure of the coil (11).
