Abstract: A logic module includes a first and a second two-input multiplexer each having first and second data inputs. Both the first and second multiplexer include a select input, both of which are connected to the output of a two-input logic gate of a first type having first and second data inputs. The inputs to the first and second two-input multiplexers are sourced with data signals from a first group. One input of each of the logic gates is sourced from a data signal of a second group and the other input of each of the logic gates is sourced from a data signal of a third group. A third two-input multiplexer has its first and second data inputs connected the outputs of the first and second multiplexers, respectively. A select input of the third two-input multiplexer is connected to the output of a two-input logic gate of a second type having first and second data inputs. 
     The output of the third two-input multiplexer is connected to a first data input of a fourth two-input multiplexer having a HOLD1 input coupled to its select input. Its output is and a CLEAR input are presented to an AND gate whose output is connected to the second data input of the fourth two-input multiplexer and to the first data input of a fifth two-input multiplexer. The select input of the fifth two-input multiplexer is connected to a HOLD2 input. Its output and the CLEAR input are presented to an AND gate whose output is connected to the second data input of the fifth two-input multiplexer and to an output node. The CLEAR, HOLD1 and HOLD2 inputs are defined by combinations of signals from a data signal of a third group which may contain a data signal of one of the other groups.

Abstract: The circuit has a reference voltage source (1) for producing a constant voltage. A current source (14) controlled by the reference voltage source via an amplifier (6) produces a constant current. A control stage (11) contains first and second resistances (21,22) of which at least one is a trimmable resistance. The two resistances carry a first control current which is controllable so that the difference between the potential drops across the two resistances has a certain definable relationship to the constant voltage of the reference voltage source. The controlled current source is coupled to the control stage so that the constant current delivered by the current source has a second definable relationship to the first control current.

Abstract: Delivering a viscous fluid mass as a continual flow into a solid mass comprises improving the viscosity of the fluid in a heated first-stage multi-phase helical tube by the presence of a high-speed gas. The fluid mass is surrendered to the heated solid mass in a second stage and the gas removed. On leaving the multi-phase helical tube, the vaporised liquid mass flows directly onto an agitated bed of heated solid grains. The gas chamber above the agitated bed of grains has a gas flow cross-section at least 200 times greater than that of the helical tube. The gas and solid product are extracted separately from the gas chamber and the grain bed. The volume of the agitated bed is at least 30% of the volume of the solid product produced per hour. The gas emerging from the helical tube has no directional flow component towards the gas chamber outlet. The choice of grains is linked to the required product. The viscous fluid mass may be taken up by a solid at high temperature, especially a solution or suspension and the gas pressure above the agitated bed is less than 1 bar.

Abstract: An elongated encoder-strip scale, most typically plastic, is secured to an elongated encoder-strip substrate, most typically metal. The scale has indicia that are at least partially exposed for use in determining the position of a carriage with respect to a chassis in a large-format automatic image-related device ― which may be for example a printer, a plotter, or a scanner. The chassis of the image-related device supports an image-bearing sheet, and the carriage scans across the chassis carrying apparatus for forming or sensing marks on the sheet. Preferably the scale is taller than the substrate and mounted to overlap both edges of the substrate, guarding the edges of the substrate. The scale is preferably substantially transparent and mounted for transmission of an optical beam. The substrate is preferably tensioned across the chassis (preferably at a tension under which the scale alone would fail) and threaded, with the scale, through an aperture in the carriage ― even during scanning. The scale is preferably without direct support by the chassis. Preferably the scale or substrate, or both, are used in common ― but in different relative positions ― in more than one model of image-related device.

Title: Systeme de fibre optique avec commutation et gain raman simultanes

IPC: H01S3/30
Filed: 1997-07-01
Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de fibre optique comprenant une fibre optique, un dispositif de couplage, et un système de génération d'un signal de pompage. La fibre optique a une biréfringence qui préserve la polarisation et un premier mode de polarisation sensiblement perpendiculaire à un deuxième mode de polarisation. Le dispositif de couplage couple un signal d'entrée avec une longueur d'onde d'entrée dans la fibre optique de telle sorte que le signal d'entrée se propage dans le premier mode de polarisation dans la fibre optique. Le système de génération d'un signal de pompage génère un signal de pompage avec une longueur d'onde de pompage comprise entre 50 à 300 nonomètres (nm) de moins que la longueur d'onde d'entrée, et contenant une première quantité de puissance de pompage suffisante pour commuter le signal d'entrée, mais pas assez suffisante pour créer des solitons d'ordre élevé. Le dispositif de couplage couple également le signal de pompage dans la fibre optique de telle sorte que le signal de pompage se propage dans le premier mode de polarisation dans la fibre optique. Le signal de pompage entraîne une biréfringence non linéaire dans la fibre optique, ce qui pousse le signal d'entrée à commuter les modes de polarisation et à se propager dans le deuxième mode de polarisation, et amplifie la propagation du signal d'entrée dans la fibre optique. Ainsi, avec le système de fibre optique, un signal d'entrée peut être amplifié et commuté simultanément, et donc des étapes séparées d'amplification et de commutation ne sont pas nécessaires.
