Abstract: A system and method for capturing and evaluating high-speed serial data streams using conventional component testers includes a high-speed latching comparator coupled to the output of a device under test (DUT). The component tester stimulates the DUT to produce a high-speed serial data stream and strobes the latching comparator at predetermined instants of time relative to the serial data stream. In response, the latching comparator samples the digital state of the serial data stream and holds the sampled state. The component tester reads and stores the held state. The tester samples the serial data stream at multiple locations in this fashion, and takes multiple samples at each location. The tester averages the samples acquired at each location to render a probability function of the serial data stream verses time. The probability function has values that vary between zero and one, corresponding to the average value of the digital readings sampled at each point. From the probability function, significant timing characteristics of the serial data stream can be deduced, for example, jitter, intersymbol interference, and eye closure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating a primary binary signal having a predetermined spectral shape in a predetermined frequency range, in particular having a notch in the power spectrum in a predetermined frequency range. In order to avoid crosstalk between a primary binary signal and a secondary binary signal it is proposed according to the invention that data-words are modulated into channel-words forming the channel bitstream of the primary binary signal and that the modulation of the data-words is chosen such that the predetermined spectral shape of the channel bitstream of the primary binary signal is achieved by using an evaluation criterion based on a spectral weight function the shape of which is tailored to the spectral extent of the channel bitstream of a secondary binary signal. The invention is in particular useful for generating a primary binary signal which is used in the lead-in area of an optical record carrier where a wobble is used in the secondary binary signal for storing a wobble key. The invention relates further to a device for generating the channel bitstream of a primary binary signal, to a primary binary signal and to a record carrier for storing such a binary signal.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une structure et un procédé permettant de corriger les effets de proximité optique d'un masque à décalage de phase atténué à trois tonalités. Pour certains types de structures, il est possible de maintenir sur le travers du masque, sous une largeur prédéterminée, un bord atténué formé par une région opaque et une région à décalage de phase atténué. Le bord atténué est typiquement réalisé aussi grand que possible afin de maximiser l'effet de la région à décalage de phase atténué tout en empêchant toujours l'impression de portions plus grandes de la région à décalage de phase atténué lors du procédé de développement.

Abstract: A novel feeder construction, and method of operation, that is easily interfaced to a
variety of conventional pick-and-place machines and can readily and reliably feed components
suspended from a carrier for pickup at a pickup location by the pick-and-place machine. In a
preferred embodiment, the carrier with suspended components is fed in a line spaced laterally
from the pickup location. The lead component when separated from the strip must then be
moved laterally to the pickup location. By laterally spacing the carrier strip of components from
the pickup location it is ensured that the feeder parts involved in separating the component from
the carrier do not obstruct movement of the vacuum nozzle of the pick-and-place machine
during the pickup operation and advancement of the carrier to present the next component.

Abstract: A mass spectrometer is disclosed wherein a z-lens 4
upstream of an orthogonal acceleration Time of Flight
mass analyser 9 is repeatedly switched between a first

saturation, then suitably scaled mass spectral data
obtained when the mass analyser 9 is in the second mode
is used instead. If the saturation is severe then the
mass spectral data obtained in the first mode may be
replaced in its entirety with mass spectral data
obtained in the second mode.
