Title: Device and method of generating ATIP bit pattern
Inventor: LU PING-HSING
IPC: G11B20/00
Filed: 2001-11-26
Granted: 2007-06-21
Abstract: An ATIP (absolute time in pre-groove) bit data generator free from an uneven duty cycle. The ATIP bit data generator includes an analog processor, a high-frequency clock generator, a first decoder, a sync pattern detector, and a second decoder. The analog processor receives a signal generated from an optical pickup, and generates an ATIP FM signal. The high-frequency clock generator provides a high-frequency clock using the ATIP FM signal as a reference signal. The first decoder receives the ATIP FM signal and the high-frequency clock and generates bi-phase data. The sync pattern detector receives the bi-phase data and the high-frequency clock to generate a sync indication signal. The second decoder counts the pulse number of the high-frequency clock for each counting cycle, which includes a plurality of half periods of the ATIP FM signal. When the pulse number is smaller than a lower threshold value or greater than an upper threshold value, the second decoder outputs ATIP bit data with a first level, otherwise, the second decoder outputs ATIP bit data with a second level.

Title: Method for transferring patterns
Inventor: FANG CHENG-YU
IPC: H01L21/027
Filed: 2002-07-12
Granted: 2003-08-01
Abstract: A method for transferring patterns. After a patterned photoresist is formed on a substrate, the patterned photoresist is hardened and the pattern of the hardened patterned photoresist is transferred into the substrate. Moreover, a popular method to harden is the silylation process, it is acceptable to only harder the top of the patterned photoresist or to harden both the top and the sidewall of the patterned photoresist. Besides, it is optional to change the thickness and the critical dimension of the patterned photoresist before it is hardened. Significantly, because the etch resistance of hardened patterned photoresist is higher than that of the non-hardened patterned photoresist, the method can improve any defect induced by etched photoresist during the pattern transferring process. Similarly, because a thinner non-hardened photoresist is available for the method, a smaller critical dimension of the patterned photoresist is available for the method while the photolithography technology being not improved.

IPC: G11C17/18
Filed: 2002-07-15
Granted: 2003-12-01
Abstract: N-channel MOS transistors are connected to bit lines so as to correspond to the data to be read out. A constant current outputting circuit uses an off leakage current of load transistors similar to the N-channel MOS transistors as a reference current to constitute a current mirror circuit having a mirror ratio according to the number of the N-channel MOS transistors connected to each bit line. P-channel MOS transistors of the constant current outputting circuit are connected to the bit lines and supply a current according to the off leakage currents of the N-channel MOS transistors. Thus, malfunctions caused by such as off leakage currents of transistors or the like can be reliably prevented without causing an increase in access time.

Granted: 2004-09-01
Abstract: An image signal processor, wherein an AGC circuit (70) amplifies an image signal according to the gain of a gain setting circuit (56), is provided. A clamping circuit (72) with a clamping ability corresponding to a time constant set by a clamping time constant setting circuit (58) clamps the DC levels of the output of the AGC circuit (70). The clamping time constant setting circuit (58) obtains the gain generated by the clamping setting circuit (56). A comparing circuit compares the obtained gain with a standard value. If the gain excesses the standard value, the comparing circuit outputs a relative large time constant. The clamping ability of the clamping circuit (72) is controlled according to this time constant. When the gain is large, the clamping circuit (72) clamps smoothly, such that it is hard to follow a noise overlapped on a DC levels and a sawtooth-shaped noise can be restrained.

Title: Sigma-delta data conversion employing quantization error feedback
Inventor: LIN CHIA-LIANG
IPC: H03M3/00
Filed: 2003-09-24
Granted: 2005-05-11
Abstract: A sigma-delta circuit converts an analog or digital input sequence xn representing a quantity with at least p-bit resolution into an m-bit output sequence yn, where m < P < 0. The sigma-delta circuit offsets the xn sequence by a first feedback sequence cn that is proportional to output sequence yn to produce a sequence an. The signal-delta circuit filters the an sequence using a filter having a transfer function H(z<-1>) to produce a sequence dn that is offset by a second feedback sequence rn to produce an analog or digital sequence bn. The bn sequence is then digitized or quantized to produce the lower resolution m-bit output yn sequence. To increase the signal-to-noise ratio within a signal band of interest, the sigma-delta circuit includes a quantization error feedback circuit for processing the bn and yn sequences to generate a quantization error sequence en representing a difference between values the bn and yn sequences represent, and for filtering the en sequence with a transfer function R(z<-1>) to produce the rn sequence. The quantization noise in the signal band can be shaped by adjusting R(z<-1>) without affecting the sigma-delta circuit's response to the x(n) sequence, which is controlled by H(z<-1>) and not influenced by R(z<-1>).
