Abstract: The subject matter of the invention is an active pixel dental radiological image sensor, with integrated X-ray occurrence detection, which uses the pixels of the matrix to detect the start of an X-ray flash, by detecting the current produced by all the photodiodes in the matrix. A switching circuit MUX1 thus allows, in a first phase of detecting the start of an X-ray flash, a common connection node NC to be connected that corresponds to the drain of a photodiode initialisation transistor M1 at the input of a current-voltage conversion detection circuit DTX1, which provides as output a signal for detecting the start of an X-ray flash when the current produced by all the photodiodes of the matrix exceeds a predetermined threshold. The switching circuit MUX1 is then controlled to connect the common connection node NC of the pixels to a photodiode re-initialisation voltage source, VRS. In an alternative embodiment, some pixels of the matrix can be used to detect the end of an X-ray flash using the same principle, by injecting the current produced by the photodiodes of these pixels that is collected on a different common connection node, electrically isolated from the first, with the end of flash signal corresponding to a variation in this current, which falls below a predetermined threshold. The active pixels can be of the three or more transistor type, in particular with five and more transistors.

Title: Wear-out detection for an oral care device
Inventor: JOHNSON MARK THOMAS
IPC: A61C17/34
Filed: 2020-11-19
Abstract: A method for performing a wear-out assessment for an oral care system (e.g. an oral cleaning device) is disclosed. A signal is received from a sensor unit of the oral care system which, in operation, is adapted to provide an output related to a cleaning efficacy of a cleaning function of the oral care system. The sensor component may be, or may be coupled to, a component which is used during execution of an oral care function of the device, for example a sensor for detecting cleaning progress in the mouth, or a component which drives a cleaning or treatment action in the mouth. The signal is used for performing a wear-out assessment. As relevant components used by the device for the oral care function wear, characteristics of the signal may change in a predictable way, this can be used to identify when a wear-out state has been reached.

Abstract: Clock circuits, components, systems and signal processing methods enabling digital communication are described. A phase locked loop device derives an output signal locked to a first reference clock signal in a feedback loop. A common phase detector is employed to obtain phase differences between a copy of the output signal and a second reference clock signal. The phase differences are employed in an integral phase control loop within the feedback loop to lock the phase locked loop device to the center frequency of the second reference signal. The phase differences are also employed in a proportional phase control loop within the feedback loop to reduce the effect of imperfect component operation. Cascading the integral and proportional phase control within the feedback loop enables an amount of phase error to be filtered out from the output signal.
