Filed: 1995-11-25
Abstract: The circuit has controllable load switches (S1,SN) via which loads (L1,LN) are connected to a voltage under the control of a process controller (AS) which acquires a voltage signal (U1,UN) from each load and drives a controllable test switch (SP). The controllable test switch connects electrical loads via test resistances to the voltage. (UB or GND) The process controller has at least one analogue-to-digital converter (ADW) or ADC for quantitative evaluation of voltage signals. A multiplexer (MUX) passes the voltage signals of different loads to the ADC one after the other.

Abstract: A low frequency audio conversion circuit for converting the frequency of low frequency audio components. An input audio signal includes a low frequency audio component lower than the frequency a speaker can reproduce. The low frequency audio component is filtered and extracted by a low pass filter and full-wave rectified to generate even-numbered harmonics of the low frequency audio component. Secondary harmonics are extracted from the even-numbered harmonics and added to the input audio signal after being amplified to an appropriate level. When a speaker whose low frequency sound reproduction characteristics are poor is used, and a low frequency component lower than the frequency the speaker can reproduce is supplied, the low frequency audio component is reproduced as secondary harmonics which fall within the frequency range of the speaker. Thus, the low frequency audio component is compensated, and a powerful sound is reproduced at a low cost without degrading the sound.

Abstract: The circuit has an additional FET to sense the load current of a power FET. The power FET has a drain connected to a power supply, and a source connected to a load. The drain and the gate terminals of the two FETs are connected in parallel. A current corresponding to a division of the load current flows through the additional FET. A controllable resistor is connected between the source of the current sensing FET, pref. a MOSFET device, and ground. The resistance value is set so that the drain-source voltages of the power FET and the sense FET are equal. Therefore the measurement current is proportional to the load current independent of the size of the load. The measurement resistor may be made of poly-silicon, or it can be a temperature-compensated resistor.

Abstract: A gain stage and offset voltage elimination method. The gain stage includes an amplifier, condensors and a number of switches. The switches are arranged to discharge the condensors and then charge the condensors to the offset voltage during an initialize period. When an input voltage is applied to the gain stage, the condensors do not act as capacitive loads for the amplifier. The gain stage can thus more quickly charge the condensors since the charging speed is approximately equal to the slew rate of the amplifier. The period for initializing the gain stage can be shortened while minimizing the current consumed.

Abstract: An image segmentation system segments images (301) into component elements by modelling the image as a series of combined layers (6-1,6-2). The brightness of pixels within each layer (6-1,6-2) is modelled as a parametric function of pixel position. Weights (5-1,5-2) are assigned to each pixel position within each layer and describe how the layers are combined to form a recovered image (310). By modelling the image (301) as a compilation of layers (6-1,6-2) having different brightness functions, the system segments elements within an image, including text, when the image is corrupted by noise and when elements are combined, such as text and graphics. Enhanced image compression is obtained by modelling the image in multiple layers.

Abstract: A gas compressor has a cylinder chamber (27) provided with discharge holes. Openings (37,38) are in communication with respective discharge holes. Discharge passages (40,41) having the same length are connected with respective openings (37,38). The ends of the discharge passages are connected with a common passage (49). During operation of the cylinder chamber (27), discharge valves cause the expelled gas to produce pulsations on the upstream side of the two openings (37,38). The pulsations are shifted in phase by a half wavelength. Noise due to the pulsations is reduced, because the pulsations of the expelled gas cancel out each other when the gas flows through the common passage (49).

Abstract: Rate control in a stereoscopic digital video
communication system is accomplished by modifying the
quantization level of P or B-frame data in the enhancement
layer depending on whether the frame is temporally predicted
(from the same layer) or disparity predicted (from the
opposite layer). The invention can maintain a consistent
image quality by providing additional quantization bits for
disparity-predicted P-pictures, for example, where a P-frame
may be encoded from a B-frame in the enhancement layer. The
selected quantization level corresponds to an overall bit
rate requirement of the enhancement layer. For disparity
predicted P-frames, the quantization step size is modified
according to the activity level of the frame being encoded in
the enhancement layer, or of the reference frame, whichever
is greater. Also, image quality is improved and frame freeze
up is prevented during editing modes such as fast forward and
fast rewind which require random access to the picture data.
When the reference frame in the base layer is the first frame
of a group of pictures (GOP), the corresponding enhancement
layer frame will be encoded as an I or P frame instead of as
a B frame to improve image quality and eliminate or reduce
error propagation during random access.

the flying of the ink droplet.
