Patent EP-1079206-A2 (EP)
Inventor: GUSTERSON STEVE
IPC: G01D3/028
Filed: 2000-08-24
Abstract: There is described a method and apparatus for
providing temperature compensation for a variation of
output of an electronic component as the temperature of
the component fluctuates. The method and apparatus is
particularly applicable to the voltage output of a
photodiode when operated at different temperatures, to
provide a consistent voltage output for a predetermined
light level incident on the photodiode. The method and
apparatus is also usable in conjunction with other
electronic components exhibiting performance variations
with temperature. In a particularly advantageous
embodiment, the temperature compensation method and
apparatus is used in an X-ray inspection device wherein
X-rays passing through a product under inspection are
incident on a flourescent element which emits light onto
a number of photodiodes.

Abstract: A potentiometric digital to analog converter includes switches to
electrically connect a string of n resistors between two voltage supplies to charge
a first capacitor (C 1 ) through a first tap and store the charge and then to reverse
the electrical connections of the string to the two power supplies to charge a
second capacitor (C 2 ) through a second tap connected at an inverse location
symmetrical about the average voltage of the voltages at the supply connectivity
switches and store the charge of the second capacitor. The voltage (V A , V B ) on
the two capacitors is then averaged to provide a ratiometric output voltage which
is insensitive to the drift of values of the string of resistors.

Abstract: A method and system thereof for efficiently computing the number of dies per wafer and the corresponding number of stepper shot counts. Dimensions for a die andthe size of the wafer are received. The dimensions comprise a die element size that is a function of a scribe lane width, a guard ring width, an input/output pad area, and a length and a width of the die. A die count lookup table is selected for the specified wafersize and used to determine the die count corresponding to the die element size. In a similar manner, a stepper shot count lookup table is selected for the specified wafersize and used to determine the stepper shot count corresponding to the die element size. The axes of the die count and stepper shot count lookup tables are incrementedby varying amounts; for example, the increments in one portion of the lookup tables are smaller (finer), and in another portion the increments are larger (grosser). By using larger increments in portions of the lookup tables, the amount of data in the tables canbe reduced, making the tables easier to generate and work with.

thereby controlling each current. Capacitor C2 is connected in
parallel with R2 connected with the base of transistor Q2 is a
bypass capacitor for lowering the impedance of the base of
transistor Q2 in higher frequency range. Capacitor C2 is a
peaking capacitor, because it improves the high frequency

Abstract: The invention relates to an audio/video data
transfer system, an audio/video data transfer method, and
an audio/video server for enabling audio/video data to
be easily transferred between the audio/video servers.
Video servers 1 and 3 connected by the Internet are
constructed as FTP servers. When AV data is transferred
from the server 1 to the server 3, a computer apparatus 2
for controlling the server 1 communicates with a computer
apparatus 4 for controlling the server 3 and
discriminates whether the server 3 can receive the
transferred AV data or not. If it can be received, the
computer 2 sends a command "PASV" to the server 1 and
allows an IP address of an empty communication port of
the server 1 to be notified. The IP address is
transmitted to the computer 4. On the basis of the IP
address, a command "PORT" is sent to the server 3 and a
communication port of the server 3 is set. The AV data
reproduced by the server 1 under control of the computer
2 is transmitted from the IP address notified by "PASV".
The AV data is received by the server 3 on the basis of the
setting of the communication port in the "PORT".

Abstract: An improved code acquisition scheme for faster acquisition of GPS "coarse acquisition" (C/A) codes
leads to faster detection of GPS signals, and thereby a wireless terminal may determine its position in a
shorter period of time. The scheme is a combination of a frequency-domain and time-domain code acquisition
techniques. The scheme utilizes a frequency-domain code acquisition technique to detect one GPS signal and
to create a precise timing reference at the wireless terminal; and then utilizes time-domain code acquisition
techniques to detect other GPS signals from the same satellite or other satellites faster. The scheme has the
advantage of being able to be used for any wireless communications system without the requirement of
maintaining a precise timing reference in the wireless terminals, and without the requirement of heavy
computational resources that are usually needed in systems that utilize frequency-domain code acquisition
techniques.

Abstract: Sensors are mounted within a seat structure for measuring seat occupant weight. The sensors can be mounted in any one of various sensor configurations. So that common hardware can be used for each different sensor configuration, a virtual matrix is created and output from the sensors is mapped into the virtual matrix. The virtual matrix includes cell locations that do not have a corresponding sensor output; i.e. there are fewer physical cells (sensors) than virtual cell locations in the virtual matrix. A weight output signal from each sensor is mapped into the corresponding position in the virutal matrix and the remaining virtual cell locations have values assigned tothem based on data supplied by the surrounding physical cells. Seat occupant weight is determined based on output from the virtual matrix and the occupant is placed into one of the various occupant classifications. Deployment force of a restraint system is controlled based on the classification of the seat occupant.
