Abstract: In a signal encoding device, a voice signal is divided into subsignals each comprising a predetermined number of successive samples, and data trains are generated by giving initial values to a recurrence equation. The generated data trains are divided into patterns each comprising the same number of samples as the predetermined number. The distance between each pattern produced by the pattern dividing means and each of the subsignals are calculated. The pattern that provides the smallest distance with respect to each of the subsignals is identified, and the initial value set in the recurrence equation for generation of the data train that constitutes the pattern is output as coded data representing the respective subsignal.

Abstract: A FLASH-EPROM memory with a single metal architecture may be erased by selectable banks of cells. The diffused source lines are not interconnected in the silicon but contacted by means of a set of PRIMARY source connection lines, purposely patterned in metal 1, through contacts which may be formed together with the drain contacts. The PRIMARY source connection lines are parallel to and alternate with a plurality of BIT LINES which are patterned in the same metal 1. The PRIMARY source connection lines are segmented and the aligned segments are intercepted by orthogonal SECONDARY source interconnection lines patterned also in the same metal 1 and extending through interruptions of the patterned BIT LINES. The electrical continuity of the BIT LINES in the interruption zones is realized by means of "crosses" patterned in the underlying poly 2 layer. The SECONDARY source interconnection lines are brought out of the matrix and may be individually selected through a dedicated circuitry for erasing selected groups of cells having their sources connected in common to the particular SECONDARY source line, without affecting the other cells of the matrix.

Abstract: An epicyclic speed increasing and reduction gear construction in which external teeth (for example, a1 and a2, b1 and b2, and c1 and c2) cut at the same position during processing are not simultaneously meshed with (outer pins 111 of) internal-tooth gear during operation in order to improve the accuracy after completion of assembling even if the gear is cut by a machine of similar processing accuracy. Thereby, (although it seems to be contrary to a conventional idea that said external teeth cut at the same position should be simultaneously meshed with the internal-tooth gear), the actual accuracy after completion of assembling can be improved. In this case, when both the number of teeth (24 in Fig. 1) of external-tooth gears 105a and 105b, and a difference in the number of teeth (4 in Fig. 4) between the external-tooth gear and (outer pins 111) internal-tooth gear, are set to integer times of the number (2 in Fig. 1) of the external-tooth gears, the external teeth of the external-tooth gears and various holes formed in the external-teeth can be all simultaneously (by one setting) cut, and remarkably improving the accuracy of the positional relationship between the external teeth and various holes.

Abstract: A data transfer system including an exchange, wherein the exchange transfers data by sharing a plurality of channels by a time division multiplex mode. In this case, the exchange transfers the data by variably allocating to the channels channel lengths to be occupied by the same. That is, it is possible to allot any line speed to any channel and therefore possible to mix signals with different data transfer speeds in the frames. This results in an exchange network with a high degree of freedom of transfer for the subscriber terminal equipment.

Abstract: Method for operating an engine having a piston reciprocable in a cylinder, an intake port for admitting air, an exhaust valve controlled by a valve actuator independently of crankshaft position, spark ignition, and fuel injection. During a first stroke the piston moves from BDC to TDC, the intake port is closed, the exhaust valve is closed, and fuel is injected. During a second stroke (TDC to BDC) the exhaust valve remains closed, lowering the pressure and causing some evaporation of the fuel-air mixture. During a third stroke (BDC to TDC), the pressure of the fuel-air mixture is again increased and finally ignited. During a fourth stroke (TDC to BDC) the ignited mixture expands, followed by opening the exhaust valve and the intake port. The second and third strokes enhance evaporation thus permit ignition of low vapor pressure fuel in a cold engine. Once the engine is hot, the valve actuators permit transition to a two-stroke-cycle.

Abstract: System and method for controlling the thickness profile of deposited thin film layers over three-dimensional topography are disclosed, wherein low pressure chemical vapor deposition conditions are employed with the reactant beam collimated and chosen to impinge at a specific angle onto the surface, such that the reactive sticking coefficient  S     r    with the deposition surface is <1. The primary modification in conventional LPCVD reactor design that is needed to accomplish directional LPCVD in accordance with the invention is the addition to the reactor (1) of a reactant collimator (10) which tailors the angular distribution of incident species (11) to the surface on which reactant is to be deposited, such as the surface of a semiconductor wafer (12). In a preferred embodiment, the collimator (10) is a plate perforated by a pattern of apertures or nozzles (13) through which the reactant gas (14) flows. Each such nozzle is designed to cause the reactant to produce a collimated gas beam after heaving the collimator, and may simply be a hole or capillary with realtively high aspect ratio, e.g. length/width = 2.0 or more. In an alternate embodiment, the collimator may consist of a structure normally referred to as a showerhead, which is commonly utilized in CVD process equipment to achieve uniform impingement density across the wafer and which may be adapted for use in accordance with the invention. Compared with conventional approaches, the system and method permit new shapes of the deposited thin film layer to be achieved over topography (such as trenches), including (i) tapered rather than re-entrant shapes (i.e., thicker at bottom rather than at top), (ii) enhanced sidewall and/or bottom coverage of trench structures (cf. the top surface), (iii) voidless, seamless filling of trench or via structures even at high aspect ratio (depth/width), and (iv) asymmetric sidewall coverage.
