Patent EP-0903753-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KASA YASUSHI
IPC: G11C16/06
Filed: 1992-12-29
Abstract: A nonvolatile semiconductor memory device includes
a matrix (1) of nonvolatile erasable memory cells
(M11), each memory cell comprising a memory cell
transistor. Erase verification circuitry (623, 624)
operates, following an erase operation on a plurality
of the said memory cells of the matrix, to carry out an
erase verify operation to verify that each cell of the
said plurality has been erased sufficiently. In this
cicruitry, threshold voltage measuring means (623, 626)
produce, for a set (605) of those memory cells, a
measurement signal representative of a threshold
voltage of the said memory cell transistor of that cell
of the set having the highest erasure rate. 
     Reference signal generating means (628) produce a
reference signal (Vref) representative of a
predetermined highest-erasure-rate threshold voltage,
being the post-erasure threshold voltage required of
that cell of the matrix having the highest erasure
rate. 
     Comparison means (625) compare the or each said
measurement signal with the reference signal and judge,
based on the comparison(s), whether the threshold
voltage of any one of the memory cells of the plurality
has reached the predetermined highest-erasure-rate
threshold voltage.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé et un appareil destinés à mesurer la vitesse d'un fluide relativement indépendamment de ses propriétés physiques. Le procédé utilisé ici consiste de préférence à monter deux capteurs à des distances différentes d'un élément chauffant. La présente invention vise également à obtenir des mesures d'une précision accrue grâce à la réduction des effets de l'inertie non nulle de l'élément chauffant et de l'inertie non nulle des capteurs. La technique préférée consiste soit à mesurer les inerties dont les valeurs sont retranchées d'une valeur brute de temps de transit, en obligeant les capteurs à suivre les perturbations thermiques dans le fluide, ce qui atténue les effets de l'inertie desdits capteurs, soit à mesurer le temps de transit à l'aide de capteurs dont la masse thermique est sensiblement nulle.

Abstract: In this demodulation method, a receive signal is demodulated
estimating the fading distortion of data by detecting the fading
distortion of unique word as pilot signal inserted into multiple

comparing a unique word in the multiple sections of receive signal
and a known unique word and thereby detecting the fading distortion
of unique word in the multiple sections; calculating a spline
interpolation curve based on the fading distortion of unique word
in the multiple sections; estimating the fading distortion of data
in the receive signal from the spline interpolation curve; and
demodulating the data in the receive signal based on the fading
distortion of the data.
