Abstract: A circuit for repairing a defective memory cell is
provided between a row or column decoder and a
memory cell array. When the decoder has n output
lines, the memory cell array includes at least (N +
1) row or column lines, where n is an integer. The
repair circuit includes connection circuit for connecting
the output lines of the decoder to the row or
column lines, and a circuit for defining the connection
of the connection circuit. The connection circuit
includes n switching elements each of which is operable
to connect one output line of the decoder to
at least two row or column lines. The defining circuit
defines the connection path of each switching element
such that the output lines of the decoder is
connected in one to one correspondence to successively
located row or column lines excluding a row
or column line connecting a defective memory cell.
The defining circuit includes a series of laser programmable
fuse elements provided between an operation
voltage supply and a ground line. The repair
circuit occupies a reduced area of a chip because of
no spare decoder and nor program circuit and it
carries out a reliable and fast memory repair because
of the, reduced number of the fuse elements
to be blown off.

Abstract: Method of making polysiloxanes by ring opening
polymerization of dimethylcyclosiloxanes such as
hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D 3 ) and cyclosiloxanes such as
1,3,5-trimethyl-1,3,5-tris (3',3',3'-trifluoropropyl)
cyclotrisiloxane (F 3 ) or 1,3,5,7-tetramethyl-1,3,5,7-tetrakis(3',3',3'-trifluoropropyl)
cyclotetrasiloxane (F 4 )
in an acid-free system using electrophillic initiators. The
reaction mixture is formed under anhydrous conditions and
contains (i) the cyclosiloxanes, (ii) a Lewis base such as
2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine which serves as a co-catalyst and
an acid scavenger and, optionally, (iii) a salt of a strong
acid such as tetrabutylammonium trifluoromethane sulfonate.
The anhydrous mixture is contacted with a silyl ester of a
strong acid such as triflic acid. The anhydrous reaction
mixture is agitated at room temperature until a polysiloxane
is formed. Polymerization can be initiated practically
immediately after introduction of the cyclosiloxanes, by
first adding the Lewis base to the silyl ester and allowing
the Lewis base and the silyl ester to interact.

Abstract: A hydraulic system for a power-take-off in a utility vehicle is described, having a pump (8)
supplying hydraulic fluid to the clutch (1), the brake (2) and a lubricating circuit, a control
valve for engaging and releasing the clutch and a device containing a pressure-limiting
valve
(12) which makes a high system pressure available when the clutch is engaged and a lower
system pressure when the clutch is released. 
     In order to keep loss of power in the pump as low as possible and reduce the number of
components required in a hydraulic system of this type, the system pressures are controlled
by the pressure applied to the engaged clutch. Consequently, the system pressures can be
adjusted regardless of the design of control valve used. This means that less expensive 3/2-way
valves or 3/2-control valves can be used. This also has an advantage in that different
system pressures can be produced using a single pressure-limiting valve. The hydraulic
system is suitable for all types of utility vehicle with a power-take-off.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a one-way clutch cage
allows slits of the cage to be punched out with a short punching
distance wherein the slits are narrow in width and less prone
to deformation. In this method for manufacturing a one-way
clutch cage, after slits 8, 10, 11, 12 have been punched out,
windows 17 are punched out and then an outer annular part 18 is
cut. Therefore, since slits can be formed in a cylindrical
member 2 that has not yet been subjected to the window punch-out
process or the outer annular part cut-out process and that is
in a sufficient strength state, a diagonal punching that a
boundary portion between a cylindrical portion 3 and an outer
flange 5 is punched out from radial diagonal inside toward radial
diagonal outside can be used to form the slits. Thus, the
punching distance can be shortened, the punching die can be
thinned in thickness and the slit width can be reduced, as
compared with the horizontal punching.

traversal method, which then launches an operating environment
code module. The operating environment code module performs the
remote access/firewall traversal method and interacts with the
operating environment to obtain data transport mechanisms.
These mechanisms permit the client application to transact with
private resources beyond the firewall. The remote
access/firewall traversal procedure is made transparent to the
client application, and thus, a wider array of client
applications may be chosen for the data session with the
resources beyond the firewall.

Abstract: An optical waveguide doped with a rare earth
element (12) is pumped (26, 28) so that an input
optical signal (λ(w1)) is amplified as the input
optical signal travels through the optical waveguide.
The optical waveguide is provided with at least one
light (λ(w2), λ(w5)) which, together with the input
optical signal, causes four wave mixing (FWM) to occur
in the optical waveguide. The FWM causes a converted
optical signal to be produced in the optical waveguide.
The converted optical signal has a wavelength different
from the input optical signal. If the input signal is
modulated by a transmission signal, then the converted
optical signal will also be modulated by the
transmission signal. The optical waveguide can be, for
example, an erbium doped optical fiber operating as an
erbium doped fiber amplifier (EDFA). Therefore, an
EDFA can be used for both amplification and wavelength
conversion.
