Abstract: A domino logic circuit (18) comprising a first phase domino logic circuit (20) operable in a precharge phase and an evaluate phase. The first phase domino logic circuit comprises a precharge (20PN) node operable to change states. The domino logic circuit also comprises a second phase domino logic circuit (22) operable in a precharge phase and an evaluate phase, wherein the precharge phase and the evaluate phase of the first phase domino logic circuit are out of phase with respect to the precharge phase and an evaluate phase of the second phase domino logic circuit. Further, the second phase domino logic circuit comprises a precharge node (22PN) operable to change states in response to the states of the first phase domino logic circuit. Each of the first and second phase domino logic circuits further comprises a coupling device (20PT, 22PT) which when conducting couples the precharge node to a precharge voltage during a precharge phase and a discharge path (20L, 20DT; 22L, 22DT) connected to the precharge node which when conducting couples the precharge node to a voltage different than the precharge voltage during an evaluate phase, wherein the discharge path comprises logic circuitry. The first phase domino logic circuit is operable such that the precharge node of the first phase domino logic circuit is charged to a first state during the precharge phase of the first phase domino logic circuit, and the precharge node of the first phase domino logic circuit conditionally changes to a second state during the evaluate phase of the first phase domino logic circuit. The second phase domino logic circuit is operable such that the state of the precharge node of the second phase domino logic circuit may change in the evaluate phase of the second phase domino logic circuit and in response to the first phase domino logic circuit only when the state of the precharge node of the first phase domino logic circuit did not change in an immediately preceding evaluate phase of the first phase domino logic circuit. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system for capturing an electronic message is disclosed. The system includes a printer, a sensing device and a computer system. The printer prints on a substrate user information visible to a user and coded tags invisible to the user. Each coded tag encodes an identity unique to the substrate and a location of the coded tag on the substrate. The user information defines a message area on the substrate. The sensing device senses the coded tags on the substrate when the sensing device is moved relative to the substrate. The computer system electronically captures a message composed with the sensing device via movement of the sensing device relative to the message area, the computer system using the identity of the substrate and a sequence of respective locations of coded tags sensed by the sensing device for determining the movement relative to the message area and the message.

Abstract: The retrofitting of an existing methanol or methanol/ammonia plant to make acetic acid is disclosed. The existing plant has a reformer (10) to which natural gas or another hydrocarbon and steam (water) are fed. Syngas is formed in the reformer (10). All or part of the syngas is processed to separate out carbon dioxide (24), carbon monoxide (30) and hydrogen (32), and the separated carbon dioxide (24) is fed either to the existing methanol synthesis loop (12) for methanol synthesis, or back into the feed to the reformer (10) to enhance carbon monoxide formation in the syngas (18). Any remaining syngas (38) not fed to the carbon dioxide separator (22) can be converted to methanol in the existing methanol synthesis loop (12) along with carbon dioxide (24) from the separator (22) and/or imported carbon dioxide (25), and hydrogen (35) from the separator (28). The separated carbon monoxide (30) is then reacted with the methanol (36) to produce acetic acid (40) or an acetic acid precursor by a conventional process. Also disclosed is the reaction of separated hydrogen (32) with nitrogen (52), in a conventional manner, to produce ammonia. Also disclosed is the reaction of a portion of the acetic acid (40) in a conventional manner with oxygen (46) and ethylene (44) to form vinyl acetate monomer (48). The nitrogen for the added ammonia capacity in a retrofit of an original methanol plant comprising an ammonia synthesis loop (33), and the oxygen (46) for the vinyl acetate monomer process (42), are obtained from a new air separation unit (50).
