Title: Phased locked loop to provide precise frequency and phase tracking of two signals
IPC: G01R31/26
Filed: 1990-01-19
Abstract: A device and method are presented which allow the 
precise generation of signals within an integrated circuit (200) 
that are calibrated to an external reference signal (306). The 
device consists of a ring oscillator (304) which generates a 
calibration signal (316) oscillating at a first frequency and a 
power source that supplies a compensated power signal to the 
ring oscillator (304). The first frequency is variable based on the 
voltage of the compensated power signal. A phase detector (401) is 
used to detect the relative phase of the calibration signal 
and the external reference signal (306). The compensated power 
signal is also used for critical data paths within the 
integrated circuit (200) where precise timing is required. In a 
tester, a plurality of signals (218) may be extracted from the ring 
oscillator (304) using a series of taps. These signals will 
oscillate at the same frequency as the calibration signal (316), but 
will be phase shifted. The signals may be combined with 
multiplexors (403,404) to form a test signal (226) which is applied to a 
device unter test (DUT). Further, in order to make transparent 
propagation delay, delayed calibration signals (317) may be 
generated.

Title: Method for verifying a display apparatus control for freedom of errors in protection related installations and device for carrying out this method
IPC: G06F11/00
Filed: 1990-12-07
Abstract: Each display control (2) is associated with a counting circuit (4) which counts the number of video signal alternations occurring in preferably several monitor pictures and supplies the count to a protection-related computer (3). The latter compares the count or the counts of successively counted-out monitor pictures with the sum of the video signal alterations known to it for these pictures or derived by it from these pictures. In the event of an inadmissible deviation, the safe computer sets an error signal on the basis of which the further processing of the pictures which can be represented on the monitor (1) is blocked at least for security applications. <IMAGE>

Title: Disk format for secondary storage system
IPC: G11B20/12
Filed: 1982-10-04
Abstract: In a disk type mass storage facility for data processing systems, a disk format which improves handling of defective segments of medium and reduces access time. The format has three layers. A first, physical layer comprises the bytes, sectors and collections of sectors, as well as error detection and correction codes. A second, logical layer is used to address the physical layer and to collect together sectors to form multiplicity of separately addressable spaces, with space having a distinct functional utility. As a third, functional layer the use of data fields in each space is specified. This layer governs the handling of bad blocks if required, and the use of certain format information. At the physical layer, bits are collected into sectors, sectors are collected into tracks, tracks are collected into groups, and groups are collected into cylinders. These are logically, rather than physically, defined collections. A group is set of tracks wherein individual tracks in a group can be selected in the inter-sector rotation time. At the logical layer, the disk is divided into three main areas, each separately addressable. The first main area is broken down into two sub-areas. The first sub-area (12) is available to the host computing system for its use; the second sub-area (14 and 16) is used for replacement of the bad blocks. The second is for format information. The third main area (18) is for diagnostics. Handling of bad blocks is controlled by a hierarchically layered process. A portion of each disk, distributed across the medium, is reserved as spare sectors to replace defective sectors. After a bad sector is replaced, future attempts to the replacement sector. For the simplest revectoring, the bad block is replaced by a replacement block in a known location. If that cannot be done, multiple copies of the replacement block's header are stored in the bad block's data field and the copies are compared to find the replacement address. If the comparison fails, or the header cannot be read, a back-up table is available to match the available replacement addresses with the original address which was replaced. A special code is used to identify blocks wherein the medium is good but the contents of the block are logically corrupted. <IMAGE>

Title: Apparatus for taking out injection moulded objects
IPC: B29C45/40
Filed: 1991-03-07
Abstract: In order to reduce the number of operations required for taking injection moulded objects out of the mould and to avoid the risk of soiling the surface, in particular in the production of optical data media, the use of retaining rings is proposed, which rings are arranged radially movably in the parting plane of the mould. The inside diameters of the retaining rings 4 in this case correspond to the outside diameters of the injection moulded objects 3, the inside diameters having a retaining geometry which ensures a secure retaining of the injection moulded objects 3. After completing the injection moulding operation and after opening the mould, the retaining ring 4 can be moved out of the mould sideways together with the injection moulded object 3. After cooling and the accompanying shrinking of the injection moulded object 3, the latter can be removed from the retaining ring 4.

IPC: G11B27/10
Filed: 1992-12-10
Abstract: In a data storage method for checksum DASD arrays, files are classified by length and/or other characteristic. Each relatively shorter file is written to an address or contiguous addresses typically on a single DASD of the array. The checksum stored on a checksum DASD is updated by reading the existing checksum, XORing that with the new data and writing the new checksum. Each relatively longer file is subdivided into portions all of the same size, and the number of equal portions is equal to the number of data DASDs where the file is to be written. The portions are interleaved in a stripe of addresses on the data DASDs, and the checksum of the portions is written to the checksum DASD. The characteristic transition length is dynamically varied in order that each interleaved file is provided with contiguous addresses matched to the file size. <IMAGE>

described. This is particularly useful for mobile telephones.
In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, the
system is taken off-hook upon the recognition of an activation
word or phrase. The system then looks for a dialing phase and,
if given, dials up the number recognized. If a dialing phrase
is not recognized within a specific time interval, say one
second, then the system goes on-hook again. Upon recognition of
a dialing phrase, the system does not complete the dialing
immediately but waits for a possible cancellation word or
phrase. If no cancellation word or phrase is recognized, the
system proceeds to make the call.
Patent EP-0747702-A3 (EP)
Inventor: JACOBS MERRIT NYLES
IPC: G01N35/02
Filed: 1996-06-05
Abstract: A method of separating bound labeled
indicator from free labeled indicator in a layer of a
test element for immunoassay. The method comprises:
a) depositing sample containing a target immunoanalyte
capable of binding to the labeled indicator or to an
immobilized antibody in competition with the labeled
indicator, onto an exterior surface of a test element
in the presence of the labeled indicator and b) adding
an amount of wash liquid to the exterior surface to
form a pool of the liquid having a meniscus on the
surface, the liquid penetrating the surface over an
area bounded by a closed intersect edge formed between
the pool meniscus and the surface, so that penetrating
liquid can push free labeled indicator away from bound
labeled indicator in a volume of the layer below the
bounded area. The method is improved in that the step
b) comprises i) depositing a first amount of wash
liquid at a first location on the surface in a pool,
(ii) allowing at least a portion of the pool to spread
out through a first portion of the test element to wash
out free labeled indicator, and then (iii) depositing a
second amount of wash liquid at a second location on
the surface different from the first location to spread
out through a second portion of the test element
different from the first portion, so that the intersect
edge is displaced over the surface over time and the
liquid flowing into the test element at the intersect 
edge sweeps through more of the target read area than
is the case when washing from only the first location,
thus reducing background signal due to non-separated
free labeled indicator remaining in the volume.
