Abstract: This card type recording medium (1) has plural types of inks (A, B) which normally exhibit the same color visually but exhibit different optical characteristics under a predetermined condition provided in blocks (B1 to Bn) in a desired pattern and, by breaking the blocks block by block in accordance with the used amount or other factor, is capable of recording information corresponding to the breakage state of the blocks. First information can be recorded by a pattern of arrangement of these plural types of inks and second information can be recorded in accordance with the breakage state of the blocks. The first information is a collation pattern which indicates that the card type recording medium is a genuine one. Since the plural types of inks exhibit the same color visually, it cannot be visually discerned which type of ink is used on which block, which makes it difficult to counterfeit the card by imitating this collation pattern. Beside sicne the ink arrangement pattern cannot be visually discerned, it is difficult to repair punched holes of broken blocks by using the ink used in forming this ink arrangement   pattern so that false alteration of the second information can be prevented.

Abstract: A semiconductor device and the method of manufacturing that device that is a low capacitance, high speed, heterojunction semiconductor device. Such a device includes a Si substrate with a subcollector layer on top of the substrate, and a field oxide layer with a window therethrough to define the active region of the semiconductor device over a portion of the subcollector layer with a Si collector layer on top of the subcollector layer on the substrate or in the window surrounded by the field oxide. A SiGe layer is deposited non-selectively over the field oxide layer and on the collector layer in the window defining the active region. Then a dielectric layer is deposited over the SiGe layer. Finally, there are metalized contacts extending through windows in the dielectric layer above the SiGe layer and the field oxide layer making contact with the SiGe layer through one window and the subcollector layer through another window. For a transistor of the same type, the initial steps are the same and a second Si layer is deposited non-selectively over the SiGe layer before the dielectric layer is deposited with that layer now being deposited over the second Si layer. And, finally, the transistor is completed in the same way with metalized contacts extending through windows in the dielectric layer, an emitter contact above the active region making contact with the uppermost Si layer through one window, a base contact making contact with SiGe layer above the field oxide layer through a second window, and a collector contact through the field oxide layer making contact to the subcollector layer through a third window outside of the active region.

Abstract: An I/O channel is described which contains multiple clocking partitions and is controlled by the main system processor over an I/O bus that is common with other I/O channels, thus decoupling the channel from continuous processor monitoring. A dual set of state bits convey to the main processor over an asynchronous boundary the state of the channel interface and the link. The origin of the channel interface state bit is a function of whether the main processor is issuing a new command. Link state bits are real time or latched as a function of channel state. Link state values have been assigned using Gray code for assuring accurate determination of link state at the instant of failure, to avoid false readings at state transitions due to asynchronous internal channel clocking.

Abstract: A spectroscopic plasma torch suitable for use at atmospheric pressure disclosed. The torch utilizes a microwave induced helium plasma confined in a plasma discharge tube. The plasma is suspended and stabilized by a vortex flow of helium. The torch includes a high velocity gas jet for introducing sample materials into the plasma The design avoids the formation of carbon deposits in the plasma discharge tube caused by the premature pyrolysis of organic materials outside the plasma and prevents other sample materials from being adsorbed on the surface of the plasma tube. Because of these characteristics, the torch is particularly well suited for use as a component in a gas chromatography detector which employs helium as the plasma support gas.

Abstract: Apparatus for processing image data stored in buffer 1 takes the data from buffer 1 and stores it in line buffer 2 via shift register 4. Line buffer 2 is a RAM, and can be operated in different modes according to how many bits are simultaneously loaded into it from shift register 4. Typically modes that load one, two, four or eight bits are used, and the hardware can be switched between these different operating modes. Loading more than one bit at a time increases the flow speed of data into the RAM, and hence the processing speed of the apparatus. Data are read out from buffer 2 and undergo mask processing (process 2), the results being stored in buffer 3.

Abstract: An apparatus for reducing image artifacts in NMR imaging matches elements of a set to values of a substantially periodic function so that the values exhibit a predetermined relationship to the elements. The matching is performed by evaluating the relative probability of the values of the substantially periodic function from the samples in the growing database of the values and assigning the values to the elements by using the evaluated relative probability, so as to maximize the probability that subsequent values may be assigned the remaining elements according the predetermined relationship. A method for correcting the matching of values with elements freezes the database and acquires additional values which are substituted for earlier matched values based on the frozen database

Abstract: In a cordless key telephone system for covering multiple service areas, access units are divided into groups corresponding respectively to the service areas, the access units of each group being located in the corresponding service area for broadcasting a recurrent sequence of address signals on a two-way radio control channel and carrying speech signals on an assigned two-way telephone channel. The access units of each group has a uniquely assigned control channel different in frequency from the control channel of the other group. Cordless stations are switchable to the control channel of a first group of the access units for detecting an address signal and subsequently switchable to the control channel of the access units of a second group if the address signal is not detected in a first sequence for detecting the addressed signal in a second sequence. A main controller is coupled to a switched telephone network for causing the access units to broadcast the address signals in response to an incoming call from the network and for establishing a connection between the network and one of the cordless stations.

Abstract: A quantum interference device includes a source, a drain and waveguides with quantum structures between the source and the drain. An electron wave from the source that is confined in the waveguides is split into plural electron waves. The phase difference between the the split electron waves is controlled and the split electron waves are combined into a single electron wave. The combined electron wave is directed to the drain or out of the waveguides according to an energy state of the combined electron wave by a real space transfer such as a tunneling effect. The phase difference control may be achieved by varying an electric fieled, a magnetic field, or light.

Abstract: A programmable controller has a processor (20) with a memory (36) that stores a plurality of user defined control programs for operating machinery and a list of the stored programs in the order of execution. The processor (20) sequentially selects each program from the list and executes the program until a defined point in the program is reached. At that time, execution of the program is suspended and another program is selected from the list. If a ladder logic type program is selected, the processor (20) makes one execution scan through the program before suspending execution. If a sequential function chart program is selected, one section is executed and a transition condition associated with that section is evaluated before suspending execution of the sequential function chart program. Following the suspension of each control program's execution, the processor (20) reads input data and writes data to output devices. The execution list of the stored programs is dynamic in that an executing user defined control program may add or delete a program on the list or inhibit the execution of a program that remains on the list.

Abstract: This invention relates to electronic packaging, and more particularly, to ceramic composites for electronic packaging. Electronic packaging most often refers to an assembly wherein semiconducting silicon chips are attached to a substrate by a conductive pathway and encapsulated by plastic or ceramic materials. Materials having a low dielectric constant (e.g., less than 4.0) are preferred for substrates for electronic packaging in order to reduce dielectric loss at high frequencies. The use of ceramics in electronic packaging applications is well-known. The primary use of ceramic packages are in high performance applications wherein a large number of circuits must be wired on individual ceramic substrates and hermetically sealed. It would be desirable to develop a ceramic that can be fired at the high temperature required for metallization and that would also have a dielectric constant of no greater than 5.0, in order to maintain the propagation velocity of high-speed digital signals in circuits. This invention provides machinable ceramic composites having a low dielectric constant. The composite comprises ceramic bubbles uniformly distributed throughout a ceramic matrix. These composites can be used as ceramic substrates and housings in electronic packaging, and as windows transparent to microwave and millimeter wave radiation.

Abstract: Frame processing apparatus, and a related method for its operation, for use in a station connected to a token ring network, to ensure rapid stripping of frames from the network without reference to source addresses in the frames, and in spite of the possible presence of extraneous no-owner frames on the network. The adverse effects of extraneous no-owner frames are avoided by any of three techniques. First, transmitted information frames are preceded by a start strip delimiter frame and followed by an end strip delimiter frame. The process strips all incoming frames (except tokens and ring initialization frames, which are specially handled), but does not count the stripped frames until the start strip delimiter frame is detected. Therefore, extraneous frames preceding the transmitted information frames will be stripped but not counted, and all of the transmitted frames will be stripped. In another approach, an estimated stripping time is used to terminate stripping. Frame counters are not then needed and extraneous frames will be stripped prior to the desired information frames. A third approach is to preset the transmitted frame count to some selected value, so that more frames will be stripped than were transmitted. Thus, preceding extraneous frames will be stripped, but the end strip delimiter will still terminate stripping and preclude overstripping.
