Abstract: A volatile field programmable gate array (FPGA 1) having a configurable logical
structure portion (3) that is configurable with encrypted configuration data stored
external to the FPGA in configuration data memory (4). On FPGA reconfiguration,
for example on power-up, the encrypted configuration data is supplied to an input (8)
of the FPGA 1. In the FPGA 1, the configuration data is first decrypted by a
decryption algorithm embedded in logic (5), the algorithm using as an operand a
decryption key stored in the FPGA in a non-volatile memory (6), for example
EEPROM. The decrypted configuration data is then distributed within the volatile
functional portion (3) of the FPGA (1) in a conventional manner. The functional
portion may be SRAM. With this design, unauthorized reading of the configuration
data of the FPGA (1) by observation of the stream of configuration data transmitted
to the FPGA (1) from the external memory (4), for example during power-up, will
only result in encrypted configuration data being obtained. In this way, the design
affords enhanced security against the loss of commercially valuable intellectual
property and confidential information constituted by the unencrypted configuration
data.

Abstract: A content addressable memory (CAM) is provided. The CAM
includes a search port for performing search operations at
each clock cycle and a maintenance port for writing and
reading data to address locations of the content
addressable memory. An interlock signal is also provided
and is communicated from the search port to the
maintenance port to establish when writing and reading of
data is to be performed to the content addressable memory
so that the search operations continue uninterrupted at
each clock cycle. Preferably, the interlock signal is
communicated at an end of a search operation and at a
beginning of a search pre-charge operation. The
maintenance port is configured to set-up a writing
operation at a beginning of a clock cycle and execute the
write operation at the end of the search operation and the
beginning of the search pre-charge operation. In another
preferred example, search operations can be deselected at
any time, yet any desired writing and reading operation
can still be executed. At anytime therefore, the search
operations can resume operation at each cycle, without
being affected by a read or write operation.

Abstract: For TV broadcasting purposes encoding systems with
related video encoders and audio encoders are used. The audio
and video delay are aligned before multiplexing and
transmitting the audio and video streams. According to a
time stamping mechanism input time stamps are generated
which become linked with data to be encoded, and are replaced
before output by output time stamps, which are derived
from the input time stamps by using a data delay constant.
The input time stamps are used to control the delay
of the encoding process and the output time stamps are indicating
the output time. In order to allow a switchable output
delay the data delay constant can be changed. Already
assigned output time stamps remained unchanged. For data for
which output time stamps are not already assigned, the output
time stamps are calculated using the new delay constant.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for use in a telecommunication
system to generate an acceptance decision during a decision cycle that
comprises whether to accept an incoming packet of a data stream or not in
a buffer (BUF). The incoming packet (P) has a drop priority (DP) being one
of a plurality of arranged drop priorities. The method comprises
determining for a drop priority parameter (DPP) an actual drop priority
parameter value (DPPact) out of the plurality of drop priorities; and
comparing the drop priority parameter (DPP) with the drop priority (DP) of
the packet (P) in order to generate the acceptance decision. The method
further comprises that the step of determining the actual drop priority
parameter value (DPPact) comprises determining a previous drop priority
parameter value (DPPprev) by means of any one of an initial value (DPPinit)
and a previous actual drop priority parameter value (DPPact') having been
determined during one of a previous decision cycle; and updating a queue
occupancy variable (Q) as a function of a previous re-scaled queue
occupancy value (RE-Qact') having been determined during one of a
previous decision cycle and providing thereby an intermediate queue
occupancy value (Qint); and re-calculating the intermediate queue
occupancy value (Qint) of the queue occupancy variable (Q) in function of
instantaneous queue occupancy information (INF-Qins) of the buffer (BUF)

comparing the actual queue occupancy value (Qact) with any one of a
minimum threshold (Tmin) and a maximum threshold (Tmax) and providing
thereby a result (RES (UP; DO; REM)); and according to the (RES (UP; DO;
RET)) re-scaling the actual queue occupancy value (Qact) and the previous

Abstract: Optical fibers (1) which are disposed in parallel and at each other in a plane, are
fixed in this position by pieces of tapes (3) provided with an adhesive (7) on their
surfaces facing the fibers so that the tape pieces are located exactly opposite each other
on the two large surfaces of the parallel fiber assembly. The tape pieces can extend
exactly up to the lateral edges of the assembly but can advantageously be a little longer,
so that adhesives from the opposite tape pieces come in contact with each other at the
lateral edges of the assembly. The tape pieces are advantageously cut off from specially
designed retainer tapes having openings which are provided in pairs with the openings of
each pair placed opposite each other at each of the edges of the tapes. The assembly is
placed so that it extends over the two openings of a pair of openings, crossing or
perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the tapes. Then a cutting-off or more
particularly two cuts are made in the tape, using knifes (17), only between the openings
of the pair, from one opening to the other one. Then a piece of the tape between the
openings is separated which adheres to the assembly and keeps it together. Between the
knifes (17) a cushion (13) of an elastic material is provided which in a cutting-off
movement presses the tapes in a direction towards a counterplate (15).

Title: Control valve assembly consisting of control valves or valve modules injection-moulded at the time of mounting
Inventor: RENTSCHLER KLAUS
IPC: B29C45/14
Filed: 2000-04-20
Abstract: A control valve assembly comprising at least two control valves which may be used, for example, to throttle the air intake of an internal combustion engine. The assembly is provided with a centrally arranged, force-transmitting shaft (32). The control valves are formed by blades (15) in frames (16) produced by an assembly injection molding process. The control valve blades (15) can be molded onto the force-transmitting shaft (32). The resulting assembly can be mounted or installed as a unit. Alternatively, instead of using a single continuous shaft, shaft projections can be injection molded on the valve blades, which terminate in lugs which engage in a rotationally secure manner in sockets in an adjacent valve assembly so that the two assemblies rotate together as a unit. The resulting control valve assembly is easy to install and advantageously takes up only a little space.
