Abstract: An image scanner arrangement (11) having a scanner (14), a
document feeder scanning portion (12) and a flat scanning bed
(31). A single white plate (43a) is provided between the
document feeder scanning portion and flat bed. Before scanning,
the scanner (14) scans the white plate to provide image data for
testing. If this image data contains white pixels not less than
90%, a controller (82) determines that a lamp (37a) of a light
source (37) of the scanner illuminates appropriately. After
confirming that the light source (37) is in a good condition, the
scanning starts. The single white plate (37a) is utilized
regardless of scanning being performed with the document feeder
scanning portion or the flat scanning bed.

Abstract: An I/O circuit (100) whose output receives a voltage V PAD  which is temporarily
higher than a critical voltage V DS MAX  > V DS 1  across drain and source of a conducting
first N-FET (110, N1) acting as a pull-down device. The first N-FET is protected
against hot-electron induced degradation by a serially coupled second N-FET (113,
N3). A variable drain-source voltage V DS 3  is added to V DS 1 . A comparator (150)
compares the received voltage V PAD  to a supply voltage V CC  and pulls a gate (G) of the
second N-FET (N3) to V PAD  or to V CC . The conductivity of the second N-FET (N3) is
thereby changed so that V PAD  is distributed among V DS 1  and V DS 2 . The comparator
(150) conveniently comprises two P-FETs (P1, P2, 160, 170).

Abstract: An optical record carrier for recording information along
tracks provided on the carrier. First information as main
information and second information relating to control
information for the reproduction of the first information are
recorded. In addition, third information which is different from
both said first and second information is recorded in association
with the second information such that when the first information
is reproduced based on the second information, the third
information is not directly contained in the first information
after demodulation. 
     The third information is carrier specific information provided e.g.
by the manufacturer and is easy to detect but difficult to reproduce,
thereby providing protection against unlawful copying of the information

Abstract: An apparatus for securing a mechanical frame (210) to the base of a circuit breaker.
The mechanical frame includes a U-shaped tab (212) defined by first and second legs (218,220)
extending from the bottom of the frame (210). Each leg (218,220) has an interior edge and an exterior
edge. The interior edges of the legs are separated from one another by a predetermined
distance, and at least one of the legs includes a lateral groove (216) across its interior edge.
The base includes a generally rectangular slot into which the tab is inserted. At the
center of the slot is a cylindrical void extending through the circuit breaker (10) base. A
blind rivet (500) having a head portion (506) and a body portion, is inserted into the cylindrical void
from the outside of the base such that the body portion of the rivet is between the legs of
the tab. The blind rivet (500) is then mechanically upset causing the body portion of the rivet
to expand into the lateral groove in the tab and to pull the object securely toward the
base. One leg of the U-shaped tab has a tang extending from its exterior edge. When
the legs are spread by the force of the expanding rivet, the tang bites into the plastic
base and further helps to hold the mechanical frame securely in the base.

Abstract: A method and a system for acquiring data frame timing in a
discrete multitone modem system in which an acquisition frame is
generated having a first predetermined number of impulse signals. Each
impulse signal is spaced in time by 2(P + 1)T s , such that 1/T s  is a sample
transmission rate, and P is a time length in samples of a cyclic prefix that
is added to a data frame. The cyclic prefix length P is chosen such that a
channel impulse response seen at a receiver effectively spans no more than
P + 1 samples when a received signal is sampled at the 1/T s  rate. Data
frames are generated subsequent to the acquisition frame. Each data frame
includes a cyclic prefix and at least as many data samples as samples of the
cyclic prefix. The acquisition and data frames are converted to an analog
signal for transmission. The received acquisition frame is sampled and a
summation window is advanced one sample at a time through the received
acquisition frame. The sampled acquisition frame is summed over each
summation window, with each summation window spanning P + 1 samples
of the acquisition frame. A maximum summation value is determined as
the summation window advances, and a data frame boundary is determined
based on the summation window corresponding to the maximum
summation value. A channel impulse response is estimated based on the
P + 1 samples of the received acquisition frame corresponding to the
maximum summation value, and data is coherently detected based on the
estimated channel impulse response.

Abstract: In a first aspect of the invention, a driven element is
driven by a static driving element coupled in series with a
switching element. The static driving element sets the
driving current value. In a second aspect, a plurality of
driven elements are driven by respective driving elements,
which in turn are driven by respective pre-stage circuits,
using a control voltage supplied by a single control-voltage
generating circuit. Resistors inserted between the driving
elements and pre-stage circuits limit transient current flow
to a value within the output capability of the control-voltage
generating circuit. In a third aspect, the pre-stage
circuits have constant-current output characteristics, and
the control-voltage generating circuit is designed to
provide the necessary transient current, even when all
driven elements are driven simultaneously.

secured ISAKMP/Oakley communications link is established between a
remote computer and a local computer through the Internet. A protected
keepalive message is transmitted by the local computer to the remote
computer in the event that the communications link has been idle for a

the local computer to renegotiate the policy/key(s) of the secured
communications link to the Internet. In one embodiment, the protected
keepalive message is a protected ISAKMP/Oakley command to which a
protected acknowledgement must be supplied. If a protected
acknowledgement is received from the remote box by the local box in
response to the protected keepalive message, then it is assumed that the
remote box is still reachable. However, if the protected acknowledgement
is not received from the remote box in response to the protected keepalive
message, then it is assumed that their remote box is no longer reachable.
In this case, the secured communications link between the remote box and
the local box is terminated by the local box.
