Abstract: A method for conserving power in a CAN microcontroller that includes a processor core and a CAN/CAL module that includes a plurality of sub-blocks that cooperatively function to process incoming CAL/CAN messages, which method includes the steps of placing the processor core in a power-reduction mode of operation (e.g., a sleep or idle mode of operation), placing the CAN/CAL module in a power-reduction mode of operation, and activating the CAN/CAL module to process an incoming CAL/CAN message (e.g., to perform automatic hardware assembly of a multi-frame, fragmented CAL/CAN message), thereby terminating the power-reduction mode of operation thereof, while the processor core is in its power-reduction mode of operation. In a preferred embodiment, the CAN/CAL module automatically assembles incoming, multi-frame, fragmented messages while the processor core remains in its power-reduction mode of operation, and the CAN/CAL module generates a message-complete interrupt in response to completion of assembly of the multi-frame, fragmented message, whereby the terminating step is executed in response to the message-complete interrupt. In another embodiment, the method includes the steps of placing the entire CAN microcontroller, including both the processor core and the CAN/CAL module in a power-down mode of operation, detecting receipt of an incoming message, and activating the CAN/CAL module in response to the detecting step to process the incoming message (e.g., to perform automatic hardware assembly of a multi-frame, fragmented CAL/CAN message), thereby terminating the power-down mode of operation of the CAN/CAL module, without terminating the power-down mode of operation of the processor core.

Abstract: For determining the alignment of a substrate with respect to a mask, a substrate alignment mark, having a periodic structure, and an additional alignment mark, having a periodic structure and provided in a resist layer on top of the substrate, are used. Upon illumination of these two marks, having a period which is considerably smaller than that of a reference mark, an interference pattern is generated, which has a period corresponding to that of the reference mark. By measuring the movement of the interference pattern with respect to the refernce mark, the much smaller mutual movement of the fine alignment marks can be measured. In this way, the resolution and accuracy of a conventional alignment device can be increased considerably.

Abstract: A fading correlation monitoring section (103) detects the angular spread of a communication terminal (200-1) based on a received signal and compares it with a preset threshold value. If an estimated angular spread is smaller than the threshold value, interference wave is suppressed by performing directivity reception at an AAA receiving circuit (106) and directivity transmission at an AAA transmitting circuit (122). If the estimated angular spread is larger than the threshold value, distortion of signal due to fading is compensated by performing diversity reception at a diversity receiving circuit (107) and diversity transmission at a diversity transmitting circuit (123). Radio communication can be performed with good communication quality even when fading correlation is low.
