Abstract: It is both desirable and practical to provide direct access by a microprocessor-based unit under test to control registers and/or status latches of emulated peripheral circuitry, ports or devices which are connected to the unit under test by a memory emulation test apparatus. Such access is provided in a simple manner and with a minimum of hardware added to the ROM emulator of the memory emulation test apparatus. A bus controller is provided to control read and write operations from emulated control registers and status latch to the memory emulator and/or the input/output module of the memory emulation tester apparatus over a data bus. The bus controller is selectively operated to accumulate addresses and to cause read and write operations in response to read operations requested for predetermined areas of an address space by the microprocessor of the unit under test. By providing direct access to peripheral devices and ports, the visibility of the periphery of the unit under test is improved and processing overhead of the memory emulation test apparatus is reduced, resulting in more extensive testing which can be carried out at the full speed of the microprocessor of the unit under test. Performing the test routine through the microprocessor of the unit under test thus greatly increases speed of execution of the test procedure.

Abstract: An improved method and apparatus for pre-processing cone beam attenuation data to reconstruct a three dimensional image of a particular region of interest of an object by a process of inverse Radon transformation is described. The number of required operations is substantially reduced by selectively retaining for further processing only that cone beam attenuation data acquired within a select closed region of the surface of the array detector wherein this region provides data corresponding to beams actually attenuated in passing through the region of interest of the object. In this manner, unnecessary beam attenuation data is discarded at the earliest possible opportunity to expedite image processing.

Abstract: A polyimide optical waveguide comprising a core (2) made of polyimide whose refractive index is controlled to a predetermined value by electron beam irradiation, and a cladding (1, 3) set in contact with the core and having a refractive index lower than that of the core. 
     A polyamic acid solution is spin-coated on a substrate such as of silicon, and is thermally cured to form a polyimide layer. An electron beam is irradiated on the entire surface of the polyimide layer to change the refractive index to a predetermined value. An electron beam-absorbed dose of the polyimide layer depends on the composition of the polyimide, an energy of the electron beam, and the applied amount of the electron beam irradiation. The refractive index changes in accordance therewith approximately. 
     This polyimide layer irradiated with the electron beam is used as a core layer. 
     Next, the same polyamic acid solution is spin-coated on the core layer, and is thermally cured. The material is separated from the substrate to obtain a polyimide film of a two-layer structure. 
     Then, the polyimide film of a two-layer structure is made to reverse and the irradiated polyimide layer is made to the upper surface. The lower surface of the reversed film is adhered by a method such as a thermo-compression bonding on the other silicon substrate. 
     Next, the core layer is patterned into a desired shape, for example, a rectangular shape, by RIE (reactive ion etching) method. 
     Finally, the same polyamic acid solution is spin-coated over the patterned core layer, as an upper cladding lacer, and is thermally cured, thereby preparing an embedded channel waveguide.

Abstract: A method of printing on a printing medium is provided, including providing a printing head (20; 21) for printing on a recording medium (P) and conveying the recording medium (P) in a first direction with a conveyer (10; 40). A detector (30; 32) is positioned in the upstream side of the print head (20; 21), the detector (30; 32) then detecting a trailing edge of the recording medium (P). The amount of said recording medium conveyance by the conveyer (10; 40) upon the detection of said trailing edge is computed and it is determined whether the recording medium (P) is of a standard size. Thereafter, a printing region on said recording medium is defined in accordance with the size of said recording medium (P) if said recording medium is a standard size. A printer for printing on a printing medium which employs the above method is also provided wherein a detector (30; 32) is positioned upstream of the print head (20; 21) for detecting a trailing edge of the recording medium (P) which is being conveyed. A computer computes the amount of the recording medium conveyance by the conveyer (10; 40) upon the detection of said trailing edge by said detector (30; 32), and a size determines whether said recording medium (P) is of a standard size and defines a printing region on the recording medium in accordance with the size of the recording medium (P) if said recording medium (P) is of a standard size.

Abstract: Le montage de composants électroniques (3, 3') au moyen de machines automatiques nécessite une mesure précise des composants pour leur positionnement sur des cartes de circuits imprimés. Dans ce type de mesure, on peut saisir une image d'une surface des composants, sur laquelle ou au niveau de laquelle se trouvent des bornes de connexion électronique, lorsque les composants se trouvent dans une position prédéterminée. Afin de permettre la reproduction de composants de tailles différentes, on utilise un dispositif de saisie d'images de type caméra vidéo couleur doté d'un système de lentilles (5). Les rayons de lumière provenant de la surface du composant sont conduits jusque sur les surfaces photosensibles (9, 9', 9') de la caméra vidéo en passant par le système de lentilles unique (5) et un diviseur (11) de faisceau fixe de type prismatique divisant la lumière en trois faisceaux de lumière partielle. On modifie la caméra vidéo par remplacement des éléments photosensibles par des éléments présentant des densités de pixels différentes, et le retrait des filtres chromatiques.
