Abstract: A data storage device includes optical media or magneto-optic media. Formed on the optical or magneto-optic media is an amorphous or a substantially amorphous ZrO₂ layer (102; 204). The ZrO₂ layer is typically formed by sputtering, and includes an additive which renders the ZrO₂ either amorphous or substantially amorphous. Because of the amorphous or near amorphous nature of the ZrO₂ film (102, 204), noise is not introduced into a laser beam signal passing therethrough by crystal grain boundaries in the film (102, 204). In addition, because the film (102, 204) is substantially amorphous, birefringence will not generate noise in the laser passing therethrough caused by polymorphism in the film (102, 204).

Abstract: In a CMOS output circuit having a P-channel transistor (3) and an N-channel transistor (5), whose drains are coupled via node (4) to an output (2), a diffused resistor/diode structure (6) is provided between the node (4) and the N-channel transistor (5) to prevent ESD pulses across the output from passing through the N-channel transistor (5) and destroying it. Instead the pulse energy takes the low impedance path through the diode (8) to ground. The resistor (7) in series with transistor (5) means that the impedance of the path through the transistor (5) is always higher than that through the diode (8).

Abstract: Common mode error correction for differential amplifiers involves accurately measuring both the input and output of an amplifier using a low-leakage measurement path, and calculating common-mode gain. Two measurements are made at each node by appying two different common-mode voltages. Subtracting one set of measurements from the other eliminates voltage offset errors, and leaves a common-mode error term for gain calculation. The common-mode gain factor is stored, and thereafter, common mode error may be subtracted from measurements made by the differential amplifier.

Abstract: A system for controlling use and distribution of composite digital works. A digital work is comprised of a description part (700) and a content part. The description part contains control information for the composite digital work. The content part stores the actual digital data comprising the composite digital work. The description part (700) is logically organized in an acyclic structure, e.g. a tree structure. For a composite digital work each node of the acyclic structure represents an individual digital work or some distribution interest in the composite digital work. A node in the acyclic structure is comprised of an identifier (701) of the individual work, usage rights (704) for the individual digital work and a pointer (705,706) to the digital work. Composite digital works are stored in repositories. A repository has two primary operating modes, a server mode and a requester mode. When operating in a server mode, the repository is responding to requests to access digital works. When operating in requester mode, the repository is requesting access to a digital work. A repository will process each request to access a composite digital work by examining the usage rights for each individual digital work found in the description part of the composite digital work.

L'unité de disque comprend une coulisse fixée de manière adhésive et une structure de suspension de tête dont la couronne ou courbure ne subit pas de modification lors d'une variation de température. Selon un mode préféré de réalisation, l'adhésif est appliqué en des points espacés.
