Abstract: Digital circuits and methods for designing digital circuits are presented. In an embodiment, a number of bits (B) of a bit-stream to be processed in parallel by a digital circuit is selected. A clocking rate (C) is selected for the digital circuit such that BC is equal to at least 1 gigabit per second. An initial circuit, capable of serially processing the bits of the bit-stream at a data processing rate less than BC, is formed. This initial circuit includes a feedback loop with N+1 delays. N is a whole number greater than zero. The initial circuit is unfolded by a factor of B to form B parallel processing pipelines. An N-step look-ahead network is formed to provide inputs to the B parallel processing pipelines. The unfolded circuit is retimed to achieve the selected clocking rate (C).

Abstract: End of injection rate shaping can be attained by controlling the
flow rate into a check control cavity (34). Specifically, a flow control valve (30)
allows the check control cavity (34) to vent at a first flow rate and to pressurize at
a second slower flow rate. By pressurizing at a slower rate, end of injection does
not occur as quickly, allowing injection pressure to decrease before injection is
terminated.

Abstract: In a magnetic position detecting device for detecting
a position of a moving body (2) to a fixed body (1) on the basis
of a change of a magnetic flux density that a Hall element (4)
senses when the moving body (2) provided with a magnet (6) and the

to each other. An S-pole and an N-pole of the magnet (6) are
juxtaposed along a direction in which the magnet (6) and the Hall
element (4) move relatively to each other. When the Hall element
(4) passes a boundary position between the S-pole and the N-pole
of the magnet (6), a magnetic flux density that the Hall element
(4) senses is zero. The polarities of the magnetic field are
completely inverted.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed, in an interactive broadband set-top box receiving broadband signals from a headend, to facilitate communications with an installed card within the set-top box using a single IC chip that processes the broadband signals. The single IC chip is configured to a PCMCIA PC-card mode such that PC card signals are multiplexed to certain I/O pins of the single IC chip. In the PCMCIA PC-card mode, the single IC chip attempts to detect the presence of and identify an installed card in the set-top box. If an installed card is present and is identified as a POD module, then the single IC chip is reconfigured from the PCMCIA PC-card mode to a POD mode such that POD-compatible signals are multiplexed to certain existing I/O pins of the single IC chip when operating in the POD mode.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling a solenoid-actuated charcoal canister (36) purge valve (40) to control the flow of purge fuel that is supplied via the purge valve (40) to a cylinder of an internal combustion engine (14). The method includes generating a preselected input duty cycle (82) for use in energizing the solenoid- actuated purge valve (40) that is registered by a microcontrolle (18). The solenoid-actuated purge valve (40) is energized using the input duty cycle (82) to generate an output duty cycle (100) from a current driver (84) in operable communication with the microcontroller (18). The output duty cycle (100) dictates the quantity of purge fuel flow to the cylinder by controlling the active period of energizing the solenoid. A feedback voltage (Vfb) from the solenoid-actuated purge valve (40) is measured, wherein the feedback voltage (Vfb) corresponds to a feedback duty cycle (DCfb). The microcontroller calculates an error between the input duty cycle (82) and the feedback duty cycle (DCfb) and generates a compensated output duty cycle (85) to the current driver (84) based on the error calculated to compensate any deviation. The compensated output duty cycle (85) compensates for any deviation from a linear relationship between the input duty cycle (82) and feedback voltage (Vfb), wherein Vfb corresponds to a flow of purge fuel.

Abstract: In a periodic signal controller of the present
invention, a first phase difference detection circuit (1)
and a first sine-wave signal generation circuit (2)
constitute a phase-locked loop for processing
instantaneous values. A frequency difference detection
circuit (4) determines a frequency difference between AC
input and output signals, using instantaneous values of
a first sine-wave signal output from the first sine-wave
generation circuit (2) and a second sine-wave signal output
from a second sine-wave signal generation circuit (9). A
second phase difference detection circuit (3) determines a
phase difference between the first and second sine-wave
signals. An adder circuit (5) adds a phase difference
detection signal to a frequency difference detection
signal. A frequency variation rate limiter circuit (8)
receives an output of the adder circuit (5) to limit a
frequency variation rate of the second sine-wave signal
to a fixed value or less, and also outputs to the second
sine-wave signal generation circuit (9) a command signal for
synchronizing the second sine-wave signal to the AC input
signal. With this arrangement, even if the AC input signal
includes a harmonic voltage, a sine-wave AC output signal
synchronized with the AC input signal is generated.

Abstract: A server provides a secure environment for establishing peer-to-peer communications between clients. When two clients of the server wish to establish peer-to-peer communication, they first connect to the server. The server authenticates each client and provides information to authenticated clients to enable them to establish peer-to-peer communication. Any client who abuses the peer-to-peer communication privileges can lose the right to be authenticated. In an exemplary embodiment, the server is a game server and the clients joining in playing games, preferably using voiced-based peer-to-peer communication. Different levels of authorization may be granted to different clients, to limit the interaction between clients.

Abstract: The temperature of a battery cell measured by a
temperature measurement means is stored into a measured
temperature history storage means for storing a history of
temperature. An in-cell temperature inference means
extracts a minimum temperature from the history of a
predetermined time from the measured temperature history
storage means, and infers the minimum temperature as a current
temperature within the battery cell. A remaining power
calculation means calculates remaining battery power based
on the inferred temperature within the battery cell. Instead
of directly using the measured temperature for the
calculation of the remaining battery power, the inferred
temperature within the battery cell is used, whereby even if
the measured temperature rises rapidly, it is possible to
prevent the phenomenon instantaneous increase of the
calculated remaining battery power.
