Inventor: DOWDY JAMES L
IPC: H05K7/14

Abstract: Device modules (1A) of an electrical system are slidably fitted in an enclosure (1) and integrated therein as a part of an air duct system (5c, 7c, 9c, 11a, 11b) for cooling the modules (1A). Other modules such as air mover modules (F1, F2), for the air duct system (5c, 7c, 9c, 11a, 11b), are also slidably fitted in the enclosure (1) to move air in the air ducts (5c, 7c, 9c, 11a, 11b) and the device modules (1A). Each module (1A) carries a pivotally mounted flat latch lever (23l) in a recess (15g) in a surface at one end of the module (1A). A latch member (23m) on one end of the latch lever (23l) engages a catch member (11e) on the enclosure (1) as the module (1A) approaches its fully inserted position. Movement of the latch lever (23l) to latched position, when the latch member (23m) and catch member (11e) are engaged, pivots the latch lever (23l) about the catch member (11e) and applies force to the module (1A) at the pivotal mount (15p, 15p1), to drive the module (1A) into its fully inserted position. The mechanical advantage provided by the latch lever (23l) minimizes the manually applied forces acting on the module (1A) which significantly reduces the likelihood of damaging any device within the module (1A). Reverse pivotal movement of the latch lever (23l) about the catch member (11e) withdraws the module from its fully inserted position. The mechanical advantage provided by the latch lever (23l) minimizes the application of pushing and pulling manual force to the module (1A) for its insertion and removal into and out of the fully inserted position.

Abstract: A plasma etch process for an insulating layer, such as silicon dioxide, overlaying a silicide layer having a high selectivity with respect to the silicide layer is disclosed, comprising the use of a mixture of a nitrogen- containing gas and one or more other fluorine-containing etch gases in an etch chamber maintained within a pressure range of from about 5 millitorr to about 400 millitorr. The high selectivity exhibited by the etch process of the invention permits operation of the etch process at reduced pressures of from as low as 5 millitorr to about 30 millitorr to achieve complete etching of vertical sidewall openings in the oxide layer with significant overetch capability.

Abstract: The method described enables the relative displacement of two bodies (1, 2) to be determined upon the basis of the rotation undergone as a result of the displacement by a straight line (R) which joins them. More specifically, the method of the invention provides for the determination of the angle of rotation (α) by measuring the change in the orientation (θ) of a reflecting surface (6) situated on one of the bodies, which is brought about in order to reflect the light radiation emitted by a source (5) placed on the other body onto a fixed element (7). 
     The invention also includes an apparatus for implementing the method, in which the fixed element (7) is constituted by a photodiode with at least two sensitive elements connected for feedback to a control unit; the latter brings about the change in the orientation of the surface (6) after the emission of an electrical signal generated by the different distribution of the light radiation on the sensitive elements.

Abstract: The present invention provides a scalable, modular and pipelined distributed bus arbitration system for efficiently resolving bus contention between sub-systems, e.g., processors, coupled to a common system bus. The arbitration system includes a plurality of distributed bus arbiters which receives the bus requests from the sub-systems and independently determine the next bus master. The arbitration protocol enables the arbitration process to be eliminated from the critical timing path thereby allowing the system to operate at the maximum system clock frequency possible for a given integrated circuit (IC) technology to reduce overall system clock latencies. Any change among the sub-systems during an arbitration clock cycle is based on any system bus request(s) which are active during a clock cycle immediately preceding the arbitration clock cycle, and is independent of any system bus request(s) asserted during the arbitration clock cycle. In addition, the arbitration protocol treats a current bus master, i.e., the bus master driving the system bus, preferentially. Each arbitration task is completed within a system clock cycle regardless of processor speed. As a result, the arbitration latency for retaining the current bus master is one system clock cycle while the latency for selecting and switching bus masters is two system clock cycles. In this implementation, a last port driver is the only sub-system permitted to assert a bus request in a clock cycle and immediately drive the system bus in the next immediate clock cycle. Conversely, when a second sub-system which is not the last port driver needs to drive an inactive system bus, the second sub-system asserts its bus request line in a first clock cycle, and arbitration occurs within all the respective bus arbiters occurs in a second clock cycle.

Abstract: A method an apparatus generates a channel codeword based on codewords with arbitrary block digital sums. Respective portions of the channel codeword are generated based on respective sets of input symbols, and the channel codeword is generated from the portions in accordance with another set of input symbols which are used for determining the sequence of the digital sum of successive portions of the channel codeword. Thus this sequence is used for representing the other set of input symbols. The portions are advantageously codewords, comprising symbols, generated by selecting, for each set of input symbols, a codeword from a codebook and by adapting, as for example by ordering or by inverting symbols in, the codewords to form the channel codeword.

Abstract: The invention concerns a process for determining three-dimensional structures in the submicron range, which process operates with a coherent beam (3), in particular a laser beam, divided into two partial beams (5a, 11a, 14a; 5b, 11b, 21). The first partial beam (5a, 11b, 21) is focused on an object (1) to be dimensioned structurally with a focusing diameter (24) having approximately the wavelength of the beam. The radiation (25) reflected back from the focus point (24) by the focusing lens (23) is superimposed with the radiation of the second partial beam (5a, 11a, 14a) on a detector field (19) comprising a plurality of mutually independent detectors, and the location-dependent radiation intensity values on the detectors are converted by the latter into analogue electrical signals and stored. Complex amplitude values are determined in each case from these stored values with first phase values of the local wave field at the location (19) of the detectors. Second phase values are formed from the given first phase values by multiplication with a predetermined value. With these second phase values, the intensity values of the original complex amplitude values stored in first memories (30), and the location co-ordinates of the respective detectors, an enlarged object structure is calculated and can be displayed graphically as an enlarged or hologram-like image with structures in the submicron range.
