Abstract: An anisotropic adhesive (10) for effecting an electrical connection between an electronic component (5) and a printed circuit module, in which the printed circuit module consists of a flexible or rigid substrate (1) having conductive structures printed thereon in the form of conductive traces (9) with contact areas (4). The contact areas (4) of the conductive traces (9) are electrically connected by the electronic component (5) which is fixed on the circuit module with the adhesive (10). The adhesive has electrically conductive particles distributed therethrough for effecting the connection. The particles comprise hard, non-oxidizing crystallites (8) consisting of an electrically-conductive crystalline compound of an element of sub-group IV of the Periodic Table, together with nitrogen or carbon. The crystallites are distributed within the adhesive such that there is little or no physical contact between them and therefore the adhesive is non-conductive in a direction along the layer plane. In addition, a process is disclosed wherein the crystallite-containing adhesive (10) is applied to the substrate (1) in a compact layer of such thickness that by pressing on the component the crystallites (8) are exposed to the contact surfaces (6) of the electronic component (5) and to the contact areas (4) of the traces (9) to effect an electrical connection therebetween.

Abstract: The adaptive equalizer of the present invention estimates a channel impulse response vector  h  in a channel impulse response estimator (121), and outputs a result to a channel impulse response convertor (125). The channel impulse response convertor (125) removes interference components from the channel impulse response vector  h , and outputs a channel impulse response vector  h'  to an equalizer (110). The equalizer sets up, based on the channel impulse response vector  h' , internal parameters, and equalizes, based on the internal parameters, the received signals. 
     As a result of this configuration it is possible to minimise a distortion resulting from intersymbol interference and any reduction in the reception performance caused by Co-channel interference waves.

Abstract: To minimize the amount of setting gas to be gasified and to be introduced into a molding sand containing a gas-settable binder, a metered volume of the setting liquid is injected directly into a gassing plate arranged in front of an opening leading to a cavity containing the molding sand. Heat energy is supplied to the gassing plate to effect gasification of the liquid. A superpure gas then is produced and is directed through the molding sand. Consequently, not only is only a small amount of setting liquid required to set the molding sand but only a small amount of compressed air or other non-reactive gas is required for scrubbing to remove the residual superpure gas from the sand. Therefore, cleaning or removal of the gas from the set molding sand can be performed at a low cost.

A volume table of contents may be stored in one of the addressable partitions. A tachometer 22 measures and indicates physical locations on the storage medium. Each of the partitions have an extent on the storage medium indicated by said physical locations. The control data in the drive partition includes directories of medium control blocks, such as tape marks, defect marks and the like; directory of all addressable partitions including the physical locations at the beginning of each partitions and other medium physical and logical parameter data. A so-called mount-demount medium control block in the drive partition indicates a demount status that shows all data stored in the drive partition is valid. Loading a storage medium into a drive does not mount the drive for recording and reading. First, a copy of the drive partition stored data is copied to a memory in the peripheral drive and the mount-demount medium control block is marked to indicate the storage medium is mounted. Then, the peripheral drive can indicate to an attaching unit that the storage medium is mounted for use in data processing activities.

Abstract: A voltage and resistance synthesizer includes a pulse width modulator (PWM) for synthesizing voltage and resistance values at a pair of terminals. A selector switch selects between a resistance synthesis mode, in which resistance values are synthesized from a single reference resistor, and a voltage synthesis mode, in which voltage values are synthesized from a single reference voltage. The pulse width modulator permits digital control words to be received which govern the synthesized value with 16 bit resolution. A low pass filter blocks the switching frequency components and provides a d.c. voltage which is the product of the duty cycle and the reference value.

Abstract: A synchronous memory (20) has parallel data output registers (34) and a dummy path (46). The output data from a memory array (22) is provided to the parallel output registers (34). The output registers (34) provide two parallel, interleaved, output data paths. The data in each path changes every other cycle of a clock signal. Dummy path (46) contains delay elements that model a propagation delay for a data path of the memory (20) during a read cycle. Using parallel data output registers (34) increases a time in which data is valid during the read cycle. The dummy path (46) tracks the output data signal in terms of process, power supply and temperature variations to ensure that the correct data is acquired during the read cycle.

Abstract: The present invention provides a computer graphics system with a texel value generator capably of generating texel values using a minimal amount of computationally intensive divisions while maintaining a selectable texel accuracy criteria along a scan line. This is accomplished by adaptively selecting divisional points which delineate the scan line segments along each scan line such that the divisional points are as widely spaced as possible without exceeding the selected texel accuracy criteria. Having selected the texel accuracy criteria, such as a texel error bound optimally spaced, divisional points along the scan lines are selected as a function of the selected accuracy criteria. In general, since texture gradients are not evenly distributed over the surface of a given object and texture variations are present between different objects of the image, it is advantageous to adaptively select division points one at a time, skipping as many pixels in between divisional points as the local texture gradient will allow. Accurate texel values are computed at these divisional points and also at the end points of the scan line. Approximate texel values are then computed for the pixels located between adjacent pair of divisional points along the scan line using a suitable scheme such as linear interpolation.

Abstract: Disclosed is a disk drive for storing data which includes disks and an actuator  mounted on a frame or first housing part. A second housing part, when joined with the  first housing part, forms a disk enclosure. The disk enclosure includes rails which have  openings therein for mounting the disk drive to the user frame of a computer system.  Deformable inserts are placed into the openings in the rails and screws are passed  through openings in the frame of the computer system and into the inserts in the  openings in the rails of the disk drive. The inserts are more forgiving and result in less  distortion than in a mounting system in which the screws are passed directly into tapped  holes in the rails of the disk drive. The inserts also electrically insulate the disk drive  from the user frame of the computer system.
