Abstract: A system for preventing bus contention in a multifunction integrated circuit during testing. The system is implemented in an integrated circuit adapted to accept a series of test inputs operable for testing the functionality of the integrated circuit. The integrated circuit includes at least one bus for communicatively coupling the multiple functional blocks. At least a first functional block and a second functional block included in the integrated circuit, the first functional block and the second functional block both coupled to the bus and coupled to accept the test inputs. A bus arbiter is also included in the integrated circuit for granting ownership of the bus. The bus arbiter is operable to disable at least one output of the second functional block if a corresponding output of the first functional block is activated by using a bus grant signal generated for the first functional block. This guarantees that the test inputs can propagate through the first functional block and the second functional block without causing contention for the bus between the first functional block and the second functional block. Alternatively, a centralized test device controller is used to disable the output of the second functional block, as opposed to using the grant signals of the bus arbiter. This allows the incorporation of the implementing logic without altering the logic of the bus arbiter.

Abstract: At the separation of different minerals from the ores by means of flotation, it belongs to known art to monitor a larger part of the uppermost froth layer in the flotation cell by means of a video camera whose signals are analyzed in a digital computer, in order to detect the structure and color of the froth. The new method and apparatus direct and limit the monitoring and analysis to the surface of the floated material within a fixed, narrow strip which is parallel to the overflow edge of the cell and within which the material surface passing it is homogeneous in the stationary state. The said strip thus presents a renewing sample of the surface at the location in question, which sample represents the stationary state in the average sense. The strip is subjected to homogeneous illumination, which may meet the strip at different angles depending on the primary object, i.e. whether the color or structure is being determined. By means of a repeatedly reading semiconductor line array camera, the image of the strip is formed and converted to electric black/white or multicolor signals from which the structure or color quantities are determined in digital computer. The monitoring and analysis can be directed to both the surface of the froth layer and the surface of the froth slurry flowing down from the overflow edge.

Abstract: An air precleaner includes a base assembly, a hood mounted to the base assembly and spaced from the base assembly to define a circumferential gap, and a rotor assembly mounted for rotation within the air space between the hood and base assembly. The base assembly has an outlet port that is connectable to an engine intake. Inlet ports may be formed between web supports connecting an outer circumferential wall to an inner circumferential wall of the base assembly. A series of vanes are mounted in the gap between the hood and base assembly at an angle between radial and tangential to define channels between them through which air is directed into the air space between the hood and base assembly with both an inward and tangential component of velocity. The air drawn in through the channels between the vanes provides a strong tangential component of air velocity impacting upon the rotor to maintain high efficiency of particulate removal. The additional air drawn in through the channels at the gap between the hood and base assembly significantly reduces the restriction of air drawn in through the precleaner as compared to conventional precleaner designs in which air enters only through inlet ports formed at the bottom of the precleaner. The bottom of the air precleaner may be closed so that intake air enters the precleaner only through the channels around the periphery of the precleaner, allowing the precleaner to be mounted on or adjacent to other surfaces.

Abstract: A pipeline stage in a multi-bit/stage pipeline A/D converter is calibrated by switching a set of D/A converter unit-segments in the stage to predetermined states to produce a first digital signal. A second digital signal is produced by switching a predetermined unit-segment in the set to its complementary state and keeping the states of the other unit-segments in the set unchanged. The unit-segment is then associated with a calibration coefficient representing the deviation of the difference between the first and second digital signals from an expected difference between the first and second digital signals. This process is repeated for each unit-segment that is to be calibrated.
