Patent EP-1053588-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BOECKER JOACHIM
IPC: H02M3/28
Filed: 1998-12-24
Abstract: The invention relates to methods for establishing control commands for electronic power converters, especially power converters with a modular design, whereby said modules are correspondingly grouped into parallel branches according to a previously found voltage system in order to provide a constant output voltage for an on-board power supply network. Said modules are also adjusted in a co-ordinated manner by means of a current control regulator which is superimposed on an output voltage regulator. The control commands for the modules are produced when one of two threshold values of a tolerance band are reached for the current regulator error iN*-iN of the total current iN flowing through the electronic power converter, whereby the width of said tolerance band can be predefined. According to the invention, a two-step strategy defines the module which is switched when an event occurs: total current reaches the upper/lower threshold value of the tolerance band. This strategy includes the following steps: 1) parallel branch p of the module is selected and 2) the position r of the row of the module of chosen branch p is selected.

Abstract: A shift control device comprises a movable member (21,
44) having a cable support (21b, 44b) for supporting
the transmission cable (3), wherein the movable member
moves as the shifting device actuates the transmission.
An assist spring (AS) is provided for biasing the
movable member in a direction opposite a direction of
biasing of the movable member by the return spring (RS)
of the transmission. The cable support supports the
transmission cable such that the tension exerted by the
assist spring on the transmission cable remains
substantially constant regardless of a position of the
movable member as the shifting device actuates the
transmission. In a more specific embodiment, the cable
support moves the transmission cable in a straight
line, and the cable support may move the transmission
cable without winding the transmission cable about the
cable support.

Abstract: A format of data recorded in a DVD-Audio disc is composed of
an audio manager (AMG) and a plurality of audio title sets
(ATSs) following the AMG. A plurality of audio packs are
arranged in each ATS. An audio signal indicating a musical
composition is encoded to audio data in a signal processing
circuit, and the audio data is arranged in the audio packs.
The audio data of the audio packs are formatted in a DVD
formatting unit with the AMG to be arranged in the ATSs
following the AMG. Also, copyright information is arranged in
an area of a control data block placed in a read-in area of
the DVD-Audio disc. Table-of-contents (TOC) information
indicating a top address of the audio data is automatically
produced and is arranged in an empty area of the control data
block reserved for the copyright information, in an area of
the audio packs, in an area of the AMG or in an area of the
ATSs. The AMG, the ATSs including the audio packs and the TOC
information arranged at the data format in the DVD formatting
unit are transmitted to a human editor through a transmission
medium and is recorded in the DVD-Audio disc. Therefore, when
the audio data is read out from the DVD-Audio disc, the audio
data can be easily played back from the top position of the
musical composition according to the TOC information.

A code obtained via a bit inverter (2) for inverting the last bit is input to an NRZI converter (3) where bits "0" and "1" of an NRZI pattern are respectively cumulated as "-1" and "+1" to obtain a cumulated value (DSV) by a controller (4). The controller (4) controls execution/nonexecution of inverse at an invertible position by the bit inverter (2) for the last bit of the code so as to decrease the absolute value of DSV at the next invertible position.

Abstract: In the conventional game machine, a player is mechanically
informed of the result of the inner lottery, as it is, for causing
the big hit prize and cannot enjoy the pleasure of searching the
result of the inner lottery. Therefor in the present invention,a
lighting control of the notification lamp 25 is carried out as
follows. At first, eleven fixed patterns are referred to (at Step
301), and it is determined (at Step 302) what of the fixed patterns
the pattern of the staging mode combination, in a series of flow
of the game at this time,of the game starting sound, the reel lamp
extinguishing pattern and the reel lamp flashing pattern coincides
with. When no coincidence occurs, the routine is finished. When
a coincidence occurs, it is then determined (at Step 303) whether
or not the notification lamp 25 is being currently lighted. When
the notification lamp 25 is not lighted, it is controlled to light
by the lamp drive circuit 48 (at Step 304). When the notification
lamp 25 is lighted, the routine is finished.

Abstract: A system and method for determining the location of a particular
device on an integrated circuit chip is described. The system and method
utilize apparatus for detecting the emission of light during switching
events of devices in the circuit during the circuit's processing of an
input calculated to actuate the device whose location is desired. Light
emissions from the circuit can be temporally and spatially indexed so as
to allow deduction, in combination with the a priori knowledge of the
logical operation of the circuit, of the location of the desired
element. In another embodiment of the invention, a series of images of
the circuit can be accumulated, representing the circuit's response to a
series of different input signals, each input signal being designed to
result in the switching of the desired element. The series of images can
be compared to determine the location of the desired element. Also in
accordance with the invention, the elements to be located can be either
actual functional circuit elements, or fiducials added to the chip for
test purposes.

provided to the non-protected electrical storage portion. The protected electrical storage
portion (58) has a protected state in response to an occurrence of a write protect active signal.
In the protected state the protected electrical storage device prevents storage of

Abstract: A system for validating objects employs a
tristimulus light source (20) which illuminates a
colour target image (35) with collimated light of at
least one predetermined wavelength. Light reflected
off the target image is directed into a photodetector
array (90) arranged as a linear stack of photosensors
(100). The reflected light received off the target
(35) is thus quantized into a plurality of discrete
regions in a first direction. The tristimulus
incident beam is incrementally scanned in a second
direction orthogonal to the first direction to obtain
an array of numerical data based upon the colour of
rectangular sub-portions of the colour image (35). 
     Data from a master colour image can be stored as
a numerical code array. Validation of a value object
such as a credit card can be achieved by comparing the
data from the master image with data read from an
identical image affixed to that value object. The use
of colour allows each rectangular portion of the image
to represent a very large amount of data.

Abstract: In a reset period after a sustain discharge
period, erase discharges are done by applying pulse
voltages having different waveforms in the first
erase discharge period for an ON cell turned on in
the preceding sustain discharge period and in the
second erase discharge period even for an OFF cell
not turned on in the preceding sustain discharge
period. Weak wall charges that could not completely
be erased in the first erase discharge period, i.e.,
weak wall charges having been accumulated in the OFF
cell under the influence of the ON cell can be erased
in the second erase discharge period. This makes it
possible to prevent an ON operation of the OFF cell
that should not be turned on in the subsequent
address period and sustain discharge period, and to
improve the driving voltage margin.

Abstract: An Internet router treats plural output ports with a common destination as a composite port. A routing table uses the IP address to determine a composite trunk to which the packet is to be forwarded. A forwarding table identifies a route along a routing fabric within the router to a specific output port of the composite port. Output ports and fabric routes are selected to maintain order within a flow by routing the flow along a single fabric route to a single output trunk. The forwarding table may favor output ports which are nearest to a packet input port, and the forwarding table may be modified to dynamically balance load across the trunks of a composite trunk.
