Abstract: A direct memory access (DMA) controller is provided for a computer system
having a processor and a command buffer. The command buffer can be defined, for
example, as a ring buffer in the main processor memory and can be directly accessible
by the processor, for example over a bus. The DMA controller provides a head
register and a tail register operable to hold a head pointer and a tail pointer for
addressing the head and tail, respectively, of a sequence of direct memory access
commands in the command buffer. The processor is able to store DMA commands in
the command buffer. Subsequently, the DMA controller is able to access those DMA
commands using the DMA tail pointer held locally in the DMA controller. The DMA
controller is operable to compare the head and tail pointers, and to respond to non-equivalence
thereof to use the tail pointer value to access direct memory access
commands from the command buffer. The DMA controller is responsible for
updating the tail pointer in the DMA controller in association with reading of a direct
memory access command from a location in the command buffer. The processor is
responsible for updating the head pointer in the DMA controller in association with
the storing of DMA commands in the command buffer.

Abstract: A CRT has an improved contrast with the provision of a filter layer (11)
where nano-sized metal particles and colored particles are dispersed in a dielectric
matrix to selectively absorb light in predetermined wavelengths, specifically
wavelengths between peak wavelengths of primary colors emitted by phosphors
coated on the inner surface of the faceplate. The improved contrast is a result of the
metal particles in a dielectric matrix resonating with particular wavelengths and thus
absorbing them.

Abstract: In a network having an input device, such as a scanner, camera, or fax, and a
destination device, the input device initiates transmission of input data to a destination
device. The input device sends a request to the destination device notifying it of input data
that is ready to be transmitted. If the destination device wants to accept the request, when
the destination device is ready, the destination device gets, or "pulls" the data from the input
device over the network. The input device can request and receive status information from
the destination device. The destination device can also request and receive status
information from the input device.

Abstract: A transmitter for directly modulating an RF carrier with a complex baseband waveform
comprises a programmable device (24) adapted to generate amplitude and phase information
collectively corresponding to a complex baseband waveform, a signal generator (26) adapted to
generate an RF carrier whose phase is responsive to phase information generated by the programmable
device (24), a plurality of delta modulators (22), and an amplifier (28) coupled to the signal
generator and receiving the RF carrier with phase information. Each delta modulator is operative
to sample an error signal at a time period offset from all ether delta modulators to thereby
generate streams of pulses collectively approximating the amplitude information. The supply
voltage of the amplifier (28) is adjusted in accordance with approximated amplitude information
represented by the streams of pulses generated by the delta modulators. Specifically, the supply
voltage is adjusted such that the output voltage of the amplifier (28) varies substantially linearly with
changes in the supply voltage. In this manner, both the amplitude information and the phase
information are both impressed upon the RF carrier.

Abstract: In a data reproduction technique, the throughput required for rapid reproduction or
other special types of reproduction is improved, as is the data access speed at the time
of rapid reproduction. In order to achieve these objectives, a system controller (19) is
operable so that the address information of the MPEG data reproduced by a pickup (2)
may be used to create the first reproduction control information at a sector detection
circuit (4). The second reproduction control information corresponding to the starting
point of pictures contained in the MPEG data destined to be reproduction signals by
the first reproduction control signal and subjected to error correction in an error
correction circuit (7) may be created in a stream detection circuit (9). Some MPEG
data out of the entire MPEG data may be outputted for a rapid reproduction by
referring to the second reproduction control information, and through these steps, the
interval of reproducing I pictures in a rapid reproduction by using, for example, only I
pictures is reduced and smooth reproduction is achieved.
