Abstract: An electronic timing control system for a glassware-forming machine includes a mini- computer master controller which controls the timing and sequence of operation of each of the individual section glassware-forming machine components. The master controller includes a plurality of control modules for section timing, conveyor motion, etc., each module of which outputs information to a corresponding serial multiplex I/O module. Each of the I/O modules connected to the master controller feeds data to a common data cable, according to a multiplexing scheme administered by the master controller. Data from the data cable is fed to each of the sections of the I.S. glassware forming machine, and particularly to a plurality of serially connected serial multiplexer modules. Each of the serial multiplexer modules corresponds to a section functional component operable to receive and form molten glass gobs into glassware articles. Each serial multiplexer module has a unique address. Information conveyed by the data cable includes a specific address for the module to which the data being transmitted is to be provided. Thus, although control data from the master controller is provided serially to all of the multiplexer I/O modules, only that module corresponding to an address transmitted by the controller is permitted to receive the data.

Abstract: In some circuitry, field effect transistors are produced by employing polycrystalline conductive regions including the channel and connections to the source and drain. Conventional methods for producing such transistors involve depositing a thin polycrystalline channel region, patterning this region overlying the patterned region with an insulator, producing openings in the insulator for contacts to source and drain, and depositing a thick polycrystalline contact region. Processing complexity is, however, substantially reduced by first forming interconnect areas source region and drain regions (24); then opening a region (42) for the channel; and finally depositing a layer (23) to form the channel. Thus, at least three processing steps are eliminated and vertical dimensions are reduced.

Abstract: A dynamic reference system for a sense-amplifier is implemented by introducing a pair of asymmetry transistors of different size from each other in the current paths between two selected sensing lines and a source of a bias current in order to superimpose an offset current to the currents forced through the loads of the two sensing lines. The asymmetry transistors may be driven by the signals which are generated by a pair of cascode circuits which are normally used to drive the load-connecting switches of the sensing network or by the signals present on the "other one" of the two sensing lines. This introduces a "dynamic" behaviour of the reference system during an evaluation phase of a reading cycle which follows a first capacitance-charging phase thus enhancing overall discrimination performances of the sense amplifier. The reference system is simple to implement and offers a number of advantages as compared to "static" reference systems of the prior art.
