Abstract: Techniques for improving reliability of print cartridges (50) that employ a fluid recirculation path (61). One reliability feature is provided by active heat management, wherein the recirculation path is employed to provide printhead cooling. Another feature is an in-printer printhead and standpipe priming technique. Idle time tolerance can also be improved, with the ability to re-circulate ink and purge air, to provide a mode of operation that can improve the reliability of the print cartridge during idle times. A Acleaning fluid@ can be introduced that could breakup the sludge as it circulates through the print cartridge. Improved particle filtering is provided, through fluid recirculating through the system, passing through the standpipe or plenum area (94) and across the backside of the printhead (92). As the fluid moves through this region, particles trapped in the standpipe get swept out of the area and eventually through a filter before reaching the printhead again

Abstract: A dual base plate heatsink (10) for use in dissipating heat for electronic devices has sufficient thermal contact between fins and the base plates and is manufactured without the requirement for welding. Separately extruded fins (22) are connected to both base plates (12) by placing the fins side by side in channels (16) in both base plates. In order to couple the base plates (12) and the fins (22), the base plates are maintained at a constant relative distance and a swaging tool (40) is passed adjacent the fins (22) and between the base plates (12) in a direction parallel to the surface of the base plates (12). The swaging tool (40) asserts pressure to the base plates (12) to thereby swage the base plates (12) against the ends (24) of the fins (22). Undesirable warping of the base plates (12) during the process is reduced or prevented by providing a base plate configuration that minimizes the bending moment between the swaged base plate material and the rest of the base plate (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for synthesizing digital clock signals for an electronic device under test (DUT) having a plurality of pins, said method comprising the steps of generating centrally a reference clock (RCLK), and distributing said reference clock (RCLK) to a number of electronic circuits, each of said electronic circuits comprising a test signal processor (20a,20b,20c) controlling electrically said pins of said device under test (DUT) with predetermined signal patterns, and synthesizing locally at said test signal processor (20a,20b,20c) a digital clock signal (PCLK), said digital clock signal (PCLK) being individual for said pin of said device under test (DUT) electrically controlled by said test signal processor (20a,20b,20c), where 
said synthesizing comprises a division of said reference clock (RCLK) by M and a multiplication of the divided reference clock by N avg  within a phase locked loop, wherein N avg  and M integer with N avg  < M, 
charactrized in that

Abstract: Two motors (12,14) are arranged on opposing sides of a common shaft (16), drive plates (30,32) of the pump/motors (12,14) being rigidly coupled to each other, for example by being in hard contact with opposing sides of the shaft (16). By providing hard contact between the pump/motor drive plates (30,32) and a common shaft (16), the drive plates and shaft act as a substantially solid element under compression, thereby substantially canceling axial loads generated by the pump/motors (12,14) directly through the shaft (16). Residual axial loads are handled via bearings (34,36) positioned on the shaft (16) adjacent the drive plates (30,32) in such a manner that the drive plates are in light contact only with the bearings (34,36). As a result, friction experienced by the bearings is substantially reduced as compared to conventional systems, thereby improving the efficiency of the system. To further reduce loads on the bearings (34,36), the pump/motors (12,14) are arranged to ensure that they generate radial forces in a direction that is opposite to that of a separation force generated by a torque transferring device carried on the shaft (16) and transmitted to the bearings (34,36). A common housing (17) surrounding the two pump/motors (12,14), bearings (34,36) and torque transferring device is divided into three regions, to segregate the bearings (34,36) and torque transferring assembly from the pump/motors (12,14). In this manner, the regions containing the pump/motors (12,14) are substantially filled with oil to, for example, fully lubricate the pump/motors (12,14), while the central region containing the gears and torque transferring device contains a significantly smaller volume of oil to simply splash lubricate the contents of the region, thereby reducing drag on the bearings (34,36). Control means are provided for selectively moving the two pump/motors (12,14) substantially simultaneously to a selected displacement angle, using mechanical systems alone and in combination with hydraulic systems.

Abstract: External-cavity optically-pumped semiconductor lasers (OPS-lasers) including an OPS-structure having a mirror-structure surmounted by a surface-emitting, semiconductor multiplayer (periodic) gain-structure are disclosed. The gain-structure is pumped by light from diode-lasers. The OPS-lasers can provide fundamental laser output-power of about two Watts (2.0 W) or greater. Intracavity frequency-converted arrangements of the OPS-lasers can provide harmonic laser output-power of about one-hundred milliwatts (100 mW) or greater, even at wavelengths in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum. These high output powers can be provided even in single axial-mode operation. Particular features of the OPS-lasers include a heat sink-assembly for cooling the OPS-structure, a folded resonator concept for providing optimum beam size at optically-nonlinear crystals used for frequency conversion, preferred selection of optically-nonlinear materials for frequency-conversion, and compound resonator designs for amplifying second harmonic-radiation for subsequent conversion to third or fourth harmonic radiation.
