Abstract: An equalizer filter configuration includes a plurality of memory blocks (120,130); and a plurality of filter blocks (140,150). The respective pluralities of memory blocks and filter blocks are coupled so that the equalizer filter configuration has the capability to process input signal samples, the input signal samples comprising signal samples selected from the group consisting essentially of complex-valued signal samples and real-valued signal samples. A method of implementing an equalizer filter for processing complex-valued signal samples at a substantially predetermined signal sample rate includes the steps of: providing current and selectively delayed real-valued and imaginary-valued signal sample components to the respective multipliers of two multiply-accumulate units; applying selected complex-valued coefficient signal components to the respective multipliers; and operating the two multiply-accumulate units so as to implement a predetermined number of taps of the equalizer filter in which a first unit of the two multiply-accumulate units produces a real-valued output signal and a second unit of the two multiply-accumulate units produces an imaginary-valued output signal.

Abstract: The Silicon semiconductor metallisation process has a surface preparation step where a thin layer of silicon oxygen nitride of around 1 nm thick is formed on the silicon substrate. The oxidation of the sub-nanometric layer to the silicon oxide is followed by the nitration of that oxide layer by the deposition of a nitrous oxide or dioxide atmosphere. The oxidation is carried out through exposing the surface to an atmosphere of ozone at a pressure equal to atmospheric or less at a temperature between 20 and 200 degrees C. The oxidation process lasts between two and ten minutes. The nitration is carried out at a temperature of between 700 and 900 degrees C. In a second step, selective vapour phase deposition of the refractive metal is carried out providing the metallic contacts.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système de capteur conçu pour mesurer le niveau d'un fluide et comportant un tube autour duquel un enroulement primaire et une paire d'enroulements secondaires sont bobinés. Les enroulements secondaires présentent une répartition de densité variable de manière périodique. La répartition de la densité de l'un des enroulements secondaires est décalée par rapport à celle de l'autre enroulement secondaire. Un flotteur voisin du tube modifie le champ électromagnétique produit par l'enroulement primaire. En réponse aux variations du champ électromagnétique, les enroulements primaires et secondaires produisent un premier et deuxième signal dont l'amplitude varie périodiquement selon les mouvements du flotteur entre les extrémités du tube.

Abstract: Disclosed is an AGC circuit, used for read channels
of a disk storage apparatus, for controlling a level of a
reading output of a head to be kept constant. This AGC
circuit has a gain control amplifier (3) and a feedback
circuit (6,7,8,9) for digitally feeding back an output thereof. A
maximum current value of a current type D/A converter (7) is
varied for every zone in zone bit recording. A gain
adjusting time of the AGC circuit can be therefore
minimized in each zone. A GAP length in the respective
zones can be thereby reduced, and a storage capacity is
increased. A maximum current value of the current type
D/A converter (7) is varied in a read/write area and a data
surface servo area on a disk storage medium. It is
therefore feasible to minimize the gain adjusting time of
the AGC circuit in each of the servo area and the
read/write area. The current type D/A converter (7) is set
so that a plus-side maximum current value is different
from a minus-side maximum current value. The operation
is therefore speeded up when increasing a gain, and the
gain adjusting time of the AGC circuit can be minimized.

Abstract: The method involves measuring a roughness profile that is analysed in wavelengths and associated amplitudes. The wavelengths are divided into wavelengths ranges, and the composition of the workpiece surface is determined, based on the amplitude average values in the respective wavelength ranges. Using the measurement of the roughness profile, a continuous measurement curve of the roughness profile is recorded. The measurement curve is then digitalised, enabling the formation of discrete measurement values. The profile is analysed into wavelengths of the corresponding wave frequencies, and associated amplitudes, using Fourier analysis. The measurement system includes a scanning unit (12) which is applied to the workpiece surface (10), a measuring unit (14), an analogue to digital converter (15), a computer unit (18) and an output unit (20).

Abstract: There is disclosed a method of slicing a semiconductor ingot in which the ingot is pressed against a moving wire. A thinner portion of the wire is used at the beginning of slicing to cut a portion of the ingot where the cutting length is shorter than a predetermined length, and a thicker portion of the wire is used when the cutting length becomes longer than the predetermined length. Subsequently, a thinner portion of the wire is used when the slicing approaches to the end and the cutting length becomes shorter than a predetermined length. A portion of the wire used in previous slicing is used as the thinner portion. Alternatively, the thinner portion is formed through use of a die. The slicing method makes it possible to cut the ingot into a plurality of wafers having a uniform thickness.

Abstract: A method of packaging a beverage having gas in
solution and a beverage package has a container 10
containing the beverage 6 to form a headspace 15.
Floating on the beverage 6 is a hollow spherical capsule
having a restricted aperture 7. During sealing of the
container 10 by a top 20 the headspace 15 is pressurised
(by a nitrogen dose 16) and during such pressurisation the
insert 1 is raised relative to its natural floating
position on the beverage 6 to ensure that the aperture 7
communicates with the headspace 15 to pressurise the
chamber of that insert. The aforementioned raising of
the insert 1 is preferably achieved by subjecting the
insert to a centrifugal force during rotation of the
container in seaming the top 20 thereto or by magnetic
attraction. Following pressurisation of the headspace 15
the insert is lowered to float naturally on the beverage 6
with its aperture 7 submerged. During pressurisation the
insert 1 may take in a minimal volume of beverage from the
container. When the container is opened by ring pull 25
a pressure differential develops causing fluid under
pressure to be ejected from the insert 1 through the
aperture 7 into the beverage 6 for liberating gas from
solution and the development of froth on the beverage.

holographic optical element, and is then bent upward and
introduced into an optical recording medium. Returned light
reflected from a recording surface of the optical recording
medium is changed in a direction parallel to the direction
of light emission from the semiconductor laser device, passes
through the transmission type holographic optical element
and the three-beam generating diffraction grating again, is
then changed vertically upward by the reflecting mirror, and
