Title: Microcomputer capable of accessing continuous addresses for a short time
IPC: G06F13/28
Filed: 1988-11-04
Abstract: A microcomputer comprises a microprocessor chip and a memory 
chip coupled to each other. The memory chip includes a memory for 
storing various processing data, a bus interface for designating an address 
information of the memory to be accessed for a data transfer, and an 
address latch for temporarily holding the address information from the 
bus interface and so as to supply the address information to the memory. 
Furthermore, there is provided an automatically updated data pointer 
whose initial value is set with the address information supplied from the 
bus interface. In case of individually designating an address for each item 
of data to be transferred, the address latch is used to supply the address 
information to the memory so that an address is given to the address latch 
by the bus interface for each data transfer of one unitary data. In the case 
of continuously designating an address for each item of data to be 
transferred, so that the data pointer is used to supply the address 
information to the memory so that an address for the data transfer of a 
first unitary data to be transferred is given to the data pointer and then the 
data pointer is automatically updated for each of the second and 
succeeding data transfers.
Patent EP-0282136-A3 (EP)
IPC: H05K13/04
Filed: 1988-03-04
Abstract: A gripping device for an apparatus for placing electronic 
and/or electrical components on a substrate comprises a pair of 
grippers (1 and 2) which are movable relative to one another 
to close and open the jaws (4 and 5) of the grippers. The device 
is intended for use in an apparatus which is designed to handle 
components of different widths, and the device is constructed so 
that the gripper jaws can be opened wide enough to accommodate 
the widest component. In order to reduce the space required 
between the components on the substrate for the opening of the 
jaws to release a component (6) after it has been placed on the 
substrate, a stroke-limiting device is provided which is arranged 
for abutment with one of the grippers after an initial relative 
movement between the grippers in the direction to open the jaws, 
so that the initial stroke of the grippers in this direction is 
limited to a small amount which is sufficient to release the 
component. The gripping device is then raised above the 
component and the stroke-limiting device is rendered inoperative 
so that the jaws can be fully opened. The stroke-limiting device 
comprises an abutment member (7) in the form of a rod (8) which 
is slidable in a bore (11) in one of the grippers (1) and has a 
head (9) with an abutment surface (12) for cooperation with an 
abutment surface (14) on that gripper, a spring (16) being 
arranged to urge the abutment member (7) to a position in which 
the abutment surfaces are spaced from one another (Figure 1). 
The rod also extends between two clamping members (18 and 19) in 
the other gripper (2), which clamping members are operable by 
fluid pressure to clamp the rod between them to lock the abutment 
member to this gripper. In the locked operative condition of the 
abutment member the gripper jaws can be opened only by a small 
initial amount which is determined by the abutment of the two 
abutment surfaces. The abutment member is rendered inoperative 
by releasing the clamping members. The grippers can then be 
opened fully.

Title: Tuneless monolithic ceramic filter
IPC: H01P1/205
Filed: 1989-05-19
Abstract: A ceramic filter (114,118) employs a novel tuning process which avoids the necessity of etching or abrading plating on the surface of the filter. The tuning is provided by determining a selected frequency related characteristic of the dielectric making up the block (210) portion of the ceramic filter. For example, the quarter wave length frequency of the block (210) may be measured. Next, plating artwork (310) is designed in accordance with the determined selected frequency related characteristic. The artwork (310) is then used for selectively applying a conductive material (240) to a surface of the block (210) in order to shift the determined selected frequency related characteristic to a desired (specified) frequency characteristic. By appropriately designing the artwork (310) based on the determined selected frequency related characteristic, no etching or abrading to the plating (240) on the block (210) is required.

Patent EP-0335556-A3 (EP)
IPC: G01R33/035
Filed: 1989-03-21
Abstract: The critical current density J c  of a superconductive oxide film can be 
tailored, without substantial change in the critical temperature T c (R=0), by 
introduction of radiation damage into the superconductor. Exemplarily, this is 
done by exposure to energetic (e.g., 1 MeV) ions. The ability to tailor J c  permits 
optimization of SQUIDS and other thin film devices, and makes it possible to 
produce superconductive interconnects that comprise "fuses" or current limiters.

IPC: F02B31/00
Filed: 1991-08-14
Abstract: In a direct injection diesel engine provided with a 
fuel injector (7) facing the center of the combustion 
chamber (5), a fuel injection pump (6) supplying high 
pressure fuel to said injector, two air intake ports 
(21) and two exhaust ports (23) disposed in apposition 
to one another around said injector as center, air 
intake valves (8) and exhaust valves (9) which open and 
close these ports in synchronization with the engine, a 
swirl control valve (17) installed in one air intake 
port (21) and a control means which adjusts the 
aperture of said control valve depending on the fuel 
injection pressure, the swirl control valve (17) shuts 
when the fuel injection pressure is low so as to 
enhance the swirl of intake air. This promotes 
conversion of fuel to fine droplets, uses air more 
efficiently in the combustion and thereby reduces smoke 
generation. On the other hand, when the injection 
pressure is high, the swirl control valve (17) opens 
which increases the charging efficiency and makes it 
possible to withdraw high power from the engine.
