Inventor: ZARNOWSKI JEFFREY J
IPC: H04N5/335
Filed: 2010-04-08
Abstract: A solid state imager converts analog pixel values to digital. A counter (16) coupled to an N-bit DAC  (20) produces an analog ramp corresponding to the contents of the counter. A ripple counter (90, 92) is associated with each respective column. Column comparators (22) gate the counter elements when the analog ramp equals the pixel value. The counter contents feed a video output bus to produce the digital video signal. Additional black-level readout counters elements (26) can create and store a black level values for reduction of fixed pattern noise. Additional buffer counter/latches can be employed.  Ripple counters can be configured as counters to capture the digital video level, and then as shift registers to clock out the video levels to an output bus. The clocks for the DAC counter and ripple counters can be at the same or different rates.

Title: Airfoil with metal foam core and composite skin
Inventor: RICE EDWARD CLAUDE
IPC: F01D5/28
Filed: 2011-12-28
Abstract: It is often desirable that airfoils be light in weight in order to manage the weight of an engine and system. In addition, in many cases, it is desirable that the airfoils be robust for operational purposes, but also less prone to damage downstream components should an airfoil separate from its mounting structure and pass through downstream components of part or all of engine and/or lift fan system 16. Accordingly, embodiments of the present invention envision airfoils having a foam core, such as a metal foam core, with a composite skin surrounding the foam core. Such an airfoil may weigh less than conventional solid metal or hollow metal airfoils. One embodiment of the present invention is a unique airfoil for a turbomachine. Another embodiment is a unique gas turbine engine. Yet another embodiment is a method for manufacturing an airfoil for a turbomachine.
