Abstract: A phase locked loop ("PLL") 28 containing apparatus for
automatically causing the PLL to achieve phase lock when first
energized or after having lost phase lock. In addition to a
phase detector (4), loop filter (13), voltage controlled
oscillator ("VCO") (14) and feedback from the VCO to the phase
detector (16), the PLL has a sweep circuit (30). The sweep
circuit cooperates with the loop filter when the PLL is not in
phase lock to automatically generate a control voltage for the
VCO which control voltage increases linearly with time until
the PLL achieves phase lock or until the control voltage has
reached the largest voltage in the dynamic input range of the
VCO. In the event that phase lock is not achieved during the
period of the increasing voltage, the control voltage
decreases linearly with time to drive the PLL into phase lock.
A network comprising at least a resistor (70,72) and a temperature
sensitive resistor (74) is provided for compensating for temperature
induced variations in the transfer function of the phase detector.

Abstract: A meltblowing method and system for dispensing first
and second fluids (F1,F2) from corresponding first and
second orifices of a die assembly (100) to form a meltblown
first fluid filament (FF). The die assembly (100) directs
the first and second fluid flow flows parallelly, or
divergently, or directs the two second fluid flows
convergently toward a common first fluid flow, whereby the
first and second fluids are dispensed from orifices at
equal first fluid flow rates and equal second fluid flow
rates. The die assembly (100) is compressibly retained
between opposing end plates (160,170) coupled to an adapter
(320) for further coupling to a main manifold (10) having
a fluid metering device (210) for supplying first fluid to
the die assembly. The meltblown filaments are depositing
onto a moving substrate (S) by vacillating the filament
non-parallel to a direction of substrate movement, whereby
vacillation a first fluid flow is controllable by an angle
between the first fluid flow and one or more flanking
second fluid flows, among other variables.

Abstract: A virtual vehicle sensor includes a neural network
which produces a sensor output based on a linear combination
of non-linear physical signals generated by conventional
physical sensors. Instead of determining an output
directly, the neural network determines the polynomial
coefficients as functions of the physical signals indicative
of other engine operating parameters. The sensor is
manufactured using relatively limited data collection to
calibrate a simulation model. The output of the simulation
model is used for model-based mapping to generate more
comprehensive maps used for training the neural network.
The trained neural network is embedded in a controller and
acts as the virtual sensor to monitor engine parameters
which are difficult to measure or for which conventional
physical sensors do not currently exist. The virtual sensor
may be used to sense parameters such as in-cylinder residual
mass fraction, emission levels, in-cylinder pressure rise
during combustion, and exhaust gas temperature.

Abstract: A method of reducing power consumption of an electric
circuit (10) having a primary supply voltage (Vdd) and
first (14, 16, 18) and second (12) circuit blocks is
discussed. The method includes determining for the first
circuit block an operation time for a first critical path
of the first circuit block and determining for the second
circuit block an operation time of a second critical path
of the second circuit block. From those operation times,
the method determines that the operation time of the first
critical path is faster than the operation time of the
second critical path. The method then creates a first
supply voltage for the first circuit block that is less
than the primary supply voltage in response to determining
that the operation time of the first critical path is
faster than the operation time of the second critical path.

Abstract: An improved multiband audio compressor is well behaved for both wide band and narrow band signals, and shows no undesirable artifacts at filter crossover frequencies. The compressor includes a heavily overlapped filter bank, which is the heart of the present invention. The filter bank filters the input signal into a number of heavily overlapping frequency bands. Sufficient overlapping of the frequency bands reduces the ripple in the frequency response, given a slowly swept sine wave input signal, to below about 2 dB, 1 dB, or even 0.5 dB or less with increasing amount of overlap in the bands. Each band is fed into a power estimator, which integrates the power of the band and generates a power signal. Each power signal is passed to a dynamic range compression gain calculation block, which calculates a gain based upon the power signal. Each band is multiplied by its respective gain in order to generate scaled bands. The scaled bands are then summed to generate an output signal.

Abstract: Conventional batteries have the following problem. When the
battery temperature rises above a temperature at which the
separator melts and flows due to an internal short-circuit,
etc., a large short-circuit current generates between the
positive and negative electrodes at portions where the
separator flows to cause heat generation to further raise the
battery temperature. As a result, the short-circuit current
further increases. 
     The invention has been reached in order to solve the above
problem. An object of the invention is to provide an
electrode which increases its resistivity with increasing
temperature, a process for producing the electrode, and a
battery having the electrode. 
     The electrode of the invention has an electron conductive
material (9) containing a conductive filler and a resin and
is constituted so as to increase its resistivity with
increasing temperature.
