Patent EP-1023658-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DAY BRIAN A
IPC: G06F3/06
Filed: 1998-09-29
Abstract: A RAID controller integrated into a single chip (100). The RAID controller chip (100) includes a general purpose RISC processor (121), memory interface logic (128), a host CPU PCI bus (150), at least one back-end I/O interface channel (130), at least one direct memory access (DMA) channel (122), and a RAID parity assist (RPA) circuit (126). The RAID chip enables higher integration of RAID functions within a printed circuit board and in particular enables RAID function integration directly on a personal computer or workstation motherboard. The back-end I/O interface channel is preferably dual SCSI channels. The RAID chip is operable in either of two modes. In a first mode, the chip provides pass through from the host CPU (102) interface directly to the dual SCSI channels (130). This first mode of operation, a SCSI pass-through mode, allows use of the chip for non-RAID storage applications and enables low level manipulation of the disk array in RAID applications of the chip. The first mode of operation permits use of the chip without change to host applications and drivers. Rather, the chip is operable in a manner compatible with known available SCSI controller devices. The second mode of operation, a RAID control mode, provides full RAID management features to the attached host CPU. In the preferred embodiment, the RAID chip presents an Intelligent I/O (I2O) interface to the host CPU to enhance portability and performance of the host/RAID interaction.

Abstract: The component is made of one plastic which can be chemically-metallized, and another which cannot. The latter includes thermoplastic polycarbonate and copolyester. They are present in weight proportions suitably adjusting the transformation temperature of the latter material to a value between 190 degrees C and 310 degrees C.  An Independent claim is included for the method of preparing the component, in which the first plastic is molded, and the second is over-molded. Molding temperatures are selected to form a decorative surface and to cause welding together, the polycarbonate/copolyester ratio having been adjusted as described. Following ejection from the mold, the surface to be metallized is treated to form a hydrophilic, microporous surface by oxidation or chemical dissolution. Metallization catalyst particles are deposited on the surface. Wet chemical metallization follows. Preferred features: The two materials are molded successively, then the surface is metallized. Further details of temperature differences are provided.

Abstract: L'invention concerne plusieurs améliorations relatives à la conception d'un arbre de cathéter, afin de réduire les coûts et d'améliorer les performances. Selon un aspect, on pratique une petite encoche dans un tube de cathéter, via un procédé autre que laser, du type usinage par étincelage ou broyage mécanique. Cette encoche est nécessaire pour laisser passer le fluide entre la lumière du cathéter et un ballonnet ou autre élément relié au tube. Le fait de ne pas utiliser le laser réduit les coûts de fabrication tout en assurant un degré élevé d'intégrité structurelle. Selon un autre aspect, un procédé permet d'appliquer un revêtement polymère non uniforme sur un arbre de cathéter, afin de réduire le frottement et de conserver un cathéter à profil étroit. Selon un dernier aspect, le cathéter comporte un marqueur radio-opaque, plus visible et plus efficace pour l'identification de l'emplacement d'un ballonnet. On rapproche le marqueur d'un ballonnet distal en le plaçant dans un cône adhésif adjacent au ballon.

Abstract: An intermediate frequency signal of an OFDM signal
received by a tuner (2) is multiplied by a carrier wave by a
multiplier (3) and a multiplier (4) to thereby generate an OFDM
signal in a base band. The OFDM signal in the base band is FFT
processed by an FFT circuit (5) and a resultant signal is
outputted to a dividing circuit (10) and a pilot signal
extracting circuit (8) in an equalizing circuit (13). A pilot
signal extracted by the pilot signal extracting circuit (8) is
supplied to an interpolating filter (9) and subjected to an
interpolating process. An amplitude component and a phase
component in the pilot signal are supplied to the dividing
circuit (10). The dividing circuit (10) divides the signal
input from the FFT circuit (5) by the amplitude and phase
supplied from the interpolating filter (9) and a resultant
signal is output to a demapping circuit (11). An FFT window
circuit (6) detects the length of the guard interval from
outputs of the multipliers (3) and (4) and outputs the detection
signal to a control circuit (21). The control circuit (21)
controls the band width of the interpolating filter (9) in
accordance with the length of the input guard interval, thereby
suppressing deterioration in the equalizing characteristics by
noises.
