Abstract: An electrostatic drive 150 having a plurality of mover electrodes 152
operatively secured to a mover 154, and a plurality of stator electrodes 156
operatively secured to a stator 158. The mover 154 and stator 158 are

electrostatic drive 160 includes a driver configured to place the stator
electrodes 158 in any of a number of sequential voltage states, each being
defined by a combination of LO and HI voltage levels at the individual stator
electrodes 156. Transition from one voltage state to a sequentially adjacent

and stator 158. For each of the sequential voltage states, the driver 160 is
further configured to selectively vary voltage applied at one of the stator
electrodes 156 to an amount between the LO and the HI voltage levels, in order
to produce a proportionally smaller step size.

Patent EP-1359490-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GREGOIRE BERNARD ROBERT JR
IPC: G05F3/30
Filed: 2003-03-18
Abstract: A bandgap reference that generates a temperature stable DC voltage by using a corrective
current. The corrective current is generated by a series of differential pairs that are
controlled by both positive temperature shift gate voltage on one transistor, as well as a
negative temperature shift gate voltage on the other transistor. As temperature changes and
crosses the crossing point at which the current is split evenly through both transistors, the
current change is more abrupt. The crossing points of each of the differential pairs may be
appropriately selected so as to generate a high resolution corrective current. The various
current contributions are summed to form the total corrective current, which tends to be
quite accurate due to the abrupt crossing points. The corrective current is then fed back into
the circuit so as to compensate for much of the temperature error.

Abstract: Full predication of instruction execution is provided by
operand predicates, where each operand has an associated
predicate bit intuitively indicating the validity of the
operand value. In a programmable processor supporting
operand predication, an instruction will execute only if
the predicate bit of every register containing a source
operand is true. The predicate bit, if any, of the
destination register is set to the logical AND of the
source registers' predicates. Similarly, in a non-programmable
processor synthesized with predicated operand
support, an operator will perform the associated function
depending on the state of inputs' predicates. The output
predicate is evaluated as the logical AND of the inputs'
predicates. An additional bit for each data register, a
change in the semantics of the instructions to include
predication, and a few additional instructions to save and
restore register predicate bits and to specifically set or
reset a register's predicate bit are required.

Abstract: A laser machining apparatus capable of changing a laser output
condition at a desired machining position and time without regard to an
interpolation period. When the remaining motion command amount Pa in the
former of successive blocks, used for the interpolation period Q 0  between these
blocks, is less than a motion command amount corresponding to a command
speed in the interpolation period ITP, such deficiency Pb is supplemented by a
motion command for the latter block, thus maintaining a moving speed
unchanged. The laser output condition is changed between the blocks. A
time period t1 = ITP×Pa/(Pa+Pb) from when the interpolation period Q 0 
between the blocks starts to when a change from the former block to the latter
is completed is determined. In an interpolation period Q -1 , a CNC sets the
time period t1 and the laser output condition in laser output control signal
generating means which changes the laser output condition when the time
period t1 has elapsed from the start of the interpolation period Q 0 , making it
possible to change the laser output condition at an arbitrary time without being
limited by the interpolation period, whereby a highly accurate laser machining
can be achieved.
