Filed: 1991-09-26
Abstract: An artificial neural network is provided using a digital architecture having feedforward and feedback processors interconnected with a digital computation ring (30) or data bus to handle complex neural feedback arrangements. The feedforward processor receives a sequence of digital input signals and multiplies each by a weight in a predetermined manner and stores the results in an accumulator. The accumulated values may be shifted around the computation ring and read from a tap point thereof, or reprocessed through the feedback processor with predetermined scaling factors and combined with the feedforward outcomes for providing various types neural network feedback computations. Alternately, the feedforward outcomes may be placed sequentially on a data bus for feedback processing through the network. The digital architecture includes a predetermined number of data input terminals (12) for the digital input signal irrespective of the number of synapses per neuron and the number of neurons per neural network, and allows the synapses to share a common multiplier and thereby reduce the physical area of the neural network. A learning circuit may be utilized in the feedforward processor for real-time updating the weights thereof to reflect changes in the environment.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of fabricating a multilayer electronic circuit package. The multilayer circuit package has at least one layer that is a circuitized, polymer encapsulated metal core. According to the method of the invention a metal foil is provided for the metal core of the layer. This metal core foil may be provided as a single unit or in a continuous, roll to roll, process. The vias and through holes are drilled, etched, or punched through the metal foil. An adhesion promoter is then applied to the perforate metal foil for subsequent adhesion of polymer to the foil. The dielectric polymer is then applied to the perforate metal foil core by vapor depositing, chemical vapor depositing, spraying, or electro-phoretically depositing, a thermally processable dielectric polymer or precursor thereof onto exposed surfaces of the perforate metal foil including the walls of the through holes and vias. The dielectric polymer or precursor thereof is then thermally processed to form a conformal dielectric, polymeric coating on surfaces of the perforate metal foil, including the interior surfaces of the vias and through holes. This dielectric, polymeric coating may then be circuitized, and coated with an adhesive for lamination to the next adjacent layer. After lamination, one or more chips are attached to the completed package.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for evaluating among the trunk and limbs of the body the distribution of two types of disorder affecting posture and equilibrium control: (1) inability to receive and correctly interpret somatosensory orientation and movement information derived from those body and limb parts in contact with supporting surfaces and (2) inability to coordinate the muscular contractions in those body and limb parts in contact with a supporting surface to execute functionally effective postural movements. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention: (1) the subject (10) assumes a position of equilibrium while at least two body or limb parts are supported on independent surfaces (11,11'); (2) support surface inputs are disrupted from all but one of the supported body or limb parts; (3) the ability of the subject to utilize support surface inputs from each supported body and limb part to maintain the assumed equilibrium position is assessed by measuring the extent of spontaneously occurring displacements from the assumed equilibrium position; (4) the ability of the subject to coordinate postural movements with each supported body or limb part is assessed by imposing brief waveforms of support surface displacements; (5) steps 1 through 4 are repeated with support surface inputs disrupted from a different combination of all but one of the supported body and limb parts; and (6) the distribution of impaired ability to receive and interpret support surface inputs and to coordinate postural movements among the body and limb parts providing postural support is selectively assessed by comparing quantitive measures of spontaneous displacements from the assumed equilibrium position and postural movements.

Abstract: A method for converting a predetermined, particularly standard television signal and a circuit arrangement for carrying out this method are described. During the transmission or recording and replaying of television signals, it is frequently not possible to maintain their complete bandwidth. The invention therefore has the object of achieving an improvement in the resolution of the television signal in the sense of an increase in the bandwidth. For this purpose, a predetermined, particularly a standard television signal is converted in such a manner that signal sections which correspond to predetermined sections of lines of a predetermined group of lines of a television frame are taken therefrom and are changed into a signal, the time scale of which is converted in such a manner that the signal sections therein continuously fill out almost the entire time interval of the television signal allocated to the television frame. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus and method for simulating a mechanical detent in a manually operable rotary digital encoder 100 typically used to control a display or readout 114 in an associated electronic system 110. The output from the encoder 100 to the electronic system 110 is suspended for a predetermined time when the encoder shaft 104 is rotated past a predetermined preset point. While the encoder output is suspended, the output signal V o  to the electronic system is set at a level indicative of the preset point. The system user is thus able to quickly locate the preset point without overshooting it. If the user does, in fact, want to adjust the encoder 100 past the preset point, the delay is of such a duration that it will have expired by the time the user repositions his hand on the encoder knob 102, thus allowing adjustment of the encoder 100 to continue beyond the preset point.

Abstract: A power conversion device (10) of the inverter type for three-phase DC motor (12) includes three parallel pairs of output transistors (Q1 to Q6) between a power supply voltage (20) and the ground potential (22). These pairs provide three upper-stage transistors (Q1, Q3, Q5) and three lower-stage transistors (Q2, Q4, Q6) with diodes (D1 to D6) being coupled thereto. Drivers (24) are connected to the transistors (Q) respectively. A capacitor (C1) for each upper-stage driver (24-1) has an electrode coupled to the power supply voltage and the other electrode coupled to the ground through a corresponding lower-stage transistor (Q2). A controller (30) controls the upper- and lower-stage drivers (24) in response to a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal (Sp) generated by a PWM generator (32) to represent a desired motor rotation speed. The upper-stage transistors (Q1, Q3, Q5) are PWM-driven so that each one turns on and off repeatedly during a 120-degree electrical angle period. While one upper-stage transistor (Q1) is PWM-driven during a 120-degree period, a corresponding lower-stage transistor (Q2) turns on in response to a reverse-phased pulse at the beginning of this period, thereby charging the capacitor (C1).
