Abstract: Additional information of multi-programs can be recorded using
a source pack which indicates channel numbers and the like in multi-channel or
single-channel recording. An additional flag AF in this pack indicates whether
the pack is auxiliary information which is constructed with a plurality of pack
groups or auxiliary information which is constructed with a single pack. If AF
is 0 and the total pack number (T.P. No.) is 0, the pack is a source pack of a
single channel. If AF is 0 and T.P. No. is n (≠ 0), the T.P. No. is defined to
indicate the source pack number. Also, if AF is 1 and T.P. No. is 0, the pack is
the last pack; if AF is 1 and T.P. No. is n (≠0), the T.P. No. indicates the total
number of packs appended to the pack.

Abstract: A memory cell, which includes a transistor and a
capacitor, for use in a DRAM uses a silicon-filled
vertical trench as the capacitor and a vertical
transistor superposed over the vertical trench in a
silicon chip. An epitaxial layer is formed at the top of
the fill in the trench to impart seed information to the
primarily polysilicon silicon fill in the trench. A
polysilicon layer is deposited over the top surface of
the chip, is apertured over the top of the trench, and
has its sidewalls oxidized. The opening is then refilled
with epitaxial silicon in which there is created in
operation an inversion layer that serves as the channel
of the transistor, and the deposited polysilicon layer
serves as the word line. Another silicon layer is
deposited over the epitaxial layer to serve as the bit
line. The source/drain regions of the transistor are
formed at the merger of the deposited layer with the fill
in the trench and the merger with the polysilicon layer
that serves as the bit line.

Abstract: The conventionally separate valve, pressure regulator and manometer are integrated in a single unit. Gas, entering at (1a) is led to a conduit closed by plug (13). The spring loaded plug is moved as diaphragm (6) is deflected by bolt (4), whose threads engage with those in nut (2). A bolt (4) fits into a pinion (3) whose teeth engage in a quarter rack at the lower end of handle shaft (22). This shaft is turned by a radial hand lever, turning 90 from the ON to the OFF position. When opened, the valve admits gas to the regulator that uses a similar system of plug (13') and membrane (8). These are actuated through a regulating nut (14) moved by the upper cap (10). Gas at the delivery pressure passes through the bore of rod (19) to manometer (38) whose indicator (11a) can be viewed through the transparent dome (37). Gas is then supplied at (1b). Standard units for 1.5, 4 and 10 bar could then cover the conventional range of 15 types of units. The fitting has a cross-section of about 60 mm and a length of about 150 mm.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de transmission de données dans un réseau de télétransmission (1; 11) à configuration annulaire, tel que par ex. un anneau de protection partagé à section multiplex (MS SPRing). Selon ce procédé, une pluralité de canaux primaires (W1, W2, W3, W4) et de canaux secondaires (P1, P2, P3, P4) peuvent être respectivement transférés sur les lignes de transmission entre les éléments du réseau, de manière à mettre un canal secondaire à disposition pour chaque canal primaire. Des communications peuvent être établies dans le réseau qui utilise dans chaque ligne de transmission un de ses canaux primaires, une communication pouvant utiliser différents canaux dans chaque ligne de transmission. En cas de microcoupure respectivement d'une ligne de transmission ou d'un élément du réseau, une communication auxiliaire peut être établie par l'intermédiaire des canaux secondaires dans les lignes de transmission restantes. Dans le premier (K2) des éléments de réseau les plus proches, le canal secondaire (P1) associé à chaque communication auxiliaire est connecté au canal primaire (W1) correspondant, et dans le second élément (K4; K5), le canal secondaire (P1) associé à la communication auxiliaire est connecté au canal primaire (W2). Avant l'interruption, le canal primaire (W2) était relié, par l'intermédiaire de la communication désormais interrompue, au canal primaire (W1) du premier élément (K2) du réseau, qui correspond au canal secondaire (P1).

Abstract: In a receiver, a variable-length decoder (VLD) derives run-value pairs (RVP) from variable and run-length encoded data (ED) such as, for example, MPEG-encoded data. A run-value pair (RVP) comprises a coefficient value (CV) and a run length (RL). The run length (RL) indicates a number (N) of zero coefficients (0) which precede the coefficient value (CV), N being an integer. A processing circuit (PRC) processes the run-value pairs (RVP) to obtain a decoded data stream (DD). The processing circuit (PRC) comprises a clock circuit (CLC) and a control circuit (CON). The clock circuit (CLC) generates clock cycles (CC) which are synchronous with the decoded data stream (DD). With each run-value pair (RVP) having a run length (RL) unequal to zero, the control circuit (CON) stalls the variable-length decoder (VLD) a number (N) of clock cycles (CC). The number (N) of clock cycles is proportional to the number (N) of zero coefficients indicated by the run length (RL). In such a receiver, the processing circuit (PRC) requires relatively little buffer memory, thus allowing cost-efficient implementations.
