Patent EP-0825637-A3 (EP)
Inventor: GAYLORD ERIC I
IPC: H01L21/205
Filed: 1997-07-17
Abstract: Barrel reactor apparatus for chemical vapor
deposition of a material on a semiconductor wafer having
a cooling system (74) which protects the semiconductor
wafers from metals contamination caused by degradation of
metallic surfaces of the barrel reactor (11). Degradation
is caused by water reacting with other substances (e.g.,
HCl) in the barrel reactor (11). The cooling system (74)
has a controller (90) which monitors the operational
state of the barrel reactor (11) and selects an operating
setpoint based on the detected operational condition. As
a result, the metallic surfaces of the barrel reactor
(11) are kept cool during operation to retard corrosive
chemical reaction rates, and kept warmer than would be
otherwise possible when the barrel reactor (11) is not
operating to prevent adsorption of water by and
condensation of water onto the metallic surfaces.

Abstract: A microcomputer has an output-port (17) and an input port (18).
A plurality of switches are provided between and matrix-connected
to respective bits of the output port (17) and
respective bits of the input port (18). The microcomputer renders
all of the bits of the output port (17) in an output state, and,
in this state, checks whether an output of the output port is
obtained at one of the bits of the input port (18). If an output
of the output port (17) is obtained, data indicating a manipulated
one of the plurality of switches is acquired by rendering, in
order, the bits of the output port (17) in an output state, and
then the process of acquiring data indicating a manipulated
switch is again executed after a lapse of a predetermined
time. The acquired data is made effective if first acquired
data and second acquired data are identical.

Abstract: An automatic gain control circuit of an amplifier 1
having a gain control function is provided with a
signal-to-noise detection circuit 2 which detects a
signal-to-noise ratio of an output signal and an AGC setting
circuit 3 which sets the gain of the amplifier 1. The AGC
setting circuit 3 determines the AGC gain according to the
level of an input signal and the signal-to-noise ratio detected
by the signal-to-noise ratio detection circuit 2. In a region
where there is a large AGC gain and where the signal-to-noise
ratio is reduced by the AGC circuit, the level of an output
signal is increased so as to render the signal-to-noise ratio
of the output signal constant. Even if an input electric field
is reduced by a fading phenomenon and if there is an increase
in the AGC gain, there is prevented a decrease in the
signal-to-noise ratio due to an increase in the noise floor
stemming from the AGC circuit itself, thereby preventing
deterioration of the receiving sensitivity of the automatic
gain control circuit.

Abstract: Synchronous switching regulator circuits with
voltage-drop sensing circuitry are presented in which
the current sensing element typically in series with a
load is eliminated, resulting in reduced dissipative
losses and less costly manufacture. Voltage drops are
measured across the regulator's synchronous switching
element, and, in some cases, also across the
regulator's main switching element. Measured voltage
drops are used to derive a current analog signal
indicative of the amount of current being supplied by
the regulator. The current signal is then compared
with a threshold value to determine whether the
regulator's duty cycle should be varied.

Abstract: A laser printer (10) produces an image of raster scan
lines exhibiting a pitch distance p. The printer (10)
includes a photoreceptor (36) and n laser sources (51),
where n ≥ 2. First and second sets of laser sources (51), in
one embodiment, produce plural optical beams (34,34') which,
when imaged on the photoreceptor (36), are separated by
pitch distance p in the direction of movement of the
photoreceptor (36). The first set and second sets of laser
sources (51) are separated by a distance  S PR =c(1+qr)p ,
where: c = number of laser sources (51) in each set, q = an
integer, and r = number of rows of laser sources (51) in
both the first and second sets. The optical beams (34,34')
are modulated with pixel value data in accordance with a
correspondence of image scan lines and positions of the
optical beams (34,34') on the photoreceptor (36). The
photoreceptor (36) is moved by a distance (q·c·r)p between
scans. In such manner, an interleaving of the scan lines is
achieved, which allows substantial separation of laser
diodes (51) on a laser diode chip (50).

Abstract: A technique for regulation of packet switched network
traffic through usage-sensitive pricing is disclosed. The
network is partitioned into logical channels and a user (10)
incurs a cost for use of each of the logical channels.
The logical channels differ primarily with respect to the
cost to the user. Each user will select a channel that
provides the subjectively optimal balance of cost and
perceived quality of service, with the lowest cost
channels presumably carrying the most traffic (and hence
being more congested) and the highest cost channel
accordingly carrying the least traffic (and hence being
the least congested). Network traffic will accordingly be
distributed between channels and each user will incur
predictable charges without being precluded from seeking
a higher quality of service when desired.

Abstract: A recording apparatus and a recording method
for controlling and driving a recording head (20a)
so that an image region (73) formed by a first ink
is located between alternate image regions (71a,
71b) formed by a second ink and that the ends of a
region (72) onto which a liquid is ejected are
located with substantially the same interval as the
end-to-end interval of the image region (73) of the
first ink, and are shifted to a plurality of
locations. A plurality of timings of ejecting the
liquid corresponding to the plurality of locations
are stored in a memory device. Of these timings an
optimum one is selected and input according to the
result of recording and then the liquid is ejected
at the optimum timing during recording. This
ensures that even when plain paper is used as the
recording medium, the liquid is ejected at the
optimum timing at those positions in a boundary area
(54a, 54b) between the ends of the image region (52)
of the first ink and the alternate image regions
(51a, 51b) of the second ink which do not result in
bleeding of the first and second inks. Hence, the
adjustment of the ejection positions of the liquid
and the first and second inks can easily be made.

Abstract: A turbomolecular pump with stator blades having a structure
in which deflections are not relatively occurred even if strong
vibrations, etc. occurred, and breakage of the stator blades
hardly occur even if the stator blades are brought into contact
with rotor blades is disclosed. According to the present invention,
a rib structure is employed to an inner ring portion (74) of a stator
disc (72). As a specific rib structure, a variety of shapes such
as a semicircular-shape, a semiellipse-shape, a U-shape, or an
reversed V-shape in cross-section in a radial direction may be
employed. Those shapes may be formed by means of a press machining,
or by attaching with welding, etc. Engagement claws are formed at
the connecting portions of two-divided stator blades (72). As a
result, rigidity is enhanced at the two-divided portion. The pair
of the stator blades (72) each consisting of two-divided stator blades
are overlapped to form a two-layer structure, and the two-divided
positions of the stator blades are shifted by 90° to each other.
There is employed a structure in which even in the case where the
stator blades (72) and the rotor blades (62) are brought into contact
with each other, blades (75) of the stator discs and the blades (63)
of the rotor discs are prevented from contacting with each other,

Abstract: In a computer graphics apparatus, a three-dimensional
object is modelled using a mesh of triangles which
approximate the object surface. To display images, each
triangle is sub-divided into smaller triangles, which do
not necessarily lie in the same plane as the original
triangle. In this way, the curvature of the object
surface can be more accurately modelled. A parametric
patch, such as a Bernstein-Bezier triangular patch or
Heron patch, is used to determine how to divide each
triangle into smaller non-planar triangles. In addition,
the number of non-planar triangles is determined using
the size of the original triangle in the current or a
preceding frame of image data. The non-planar triangles
are stored for use in subsequent frames which require the
same number of non-planar triangles, thereby reducing
processing requirements. Rather than carry out lighting
calculations for the vertex of each new non-planar
triangle, lighting values are calculated and used to
define a parametric patch which is subsequently used to
determine lighting values for the new triangles.
