Abstract: An analogue to digital converter system for digitizing a stream of analogue
symbols, the analogue to digital converter system includes an analogue to digital
converter for sampling the symbols at predetermined sample timings and a feedback
loop for adjusting the sample timings. The feedback loop includes an eye opening
detector connected to an output of the analogue to digital converter and responsive to
successive digitized symbol samples to determine eye opening signals. The eye
opening detector includes a deviation detector for determining a deviation signal
representative of a deviation of a digitized symbol sample value with respect to a
mean sample value. Preferably, a variance measurement calculator calculates the
variance of these deviations. A feedback control is responsive to successive eye
opening signals to generate timing control signals for adjusting the sample timings.
The deviation detector can employ a fixed means sample value or can determine the
mean sample value from a plurality of digitized sample values over a predetermined
period. A variance calculator calculates a variance signal representative of a variance
of a deviation signal value with respect to a mean deviation value. The variance
calculator can determine the mean deviation value from a plurality of digitized sample
values over a predetermined period. Successive variance values form the eye opening
signals and an eye opening signal is output in response to each digitized symbol
sample.

Abstract: The image forming apparatus has a first through a
fourth image forming stations (10Y,10M,10C,10Bk) which form images in
respective colors. Under theses image forming stations,
there is provided the transfer belt (20) to convey a paper.
Inside the transfer belt (20), transfer rollers (5Y,5M,5C,5Bk) are
arranged to apply prescribed transfer bias voltage to the image
carriers (1Y,1M,1C,1Bk) of the image forming stations (10Y,10M,10C,10Bk).
When, for instance, a monochromatic image is formed at the fourth
image forming station (10Bk), 500V transfer bias voltage is
applied to the transfer rollers of the first through third
image forming stations (10Y,10M,10C) and 1,00V transfer bias voltage is
applied to the transfer roller (5Bk) of the fourth image forming
station (10Bk). Thus, it is possible to prevent undesirable
charge-up to the paper and form monochromatic image of
good quality.

Abstract: The ultrafiltration rate of a blood purification apparatus is controlled by a fuzzy control device in dependence on the patient's (16) blood pressure measured by a blood pressure monitor (24). For this purpose the blood pressure (P), a short-term blood pressure trend value (TRK) and a long-term blood pressure trend value (TRL) are fed as input variables for the fuzzy controller to the control device (23). The ultrafiltration rate (UFR) is determined by the volumetric ultrafiltration pump (36). According to the patient's (16) blood pressure situation a prestored profile of the ultrafiltration rate is modified. This avoids the necessity of an additional infusion to prevent too strong a blood pressure decrease.
