Patent EP-1381023-A3 (EP)
Inventor: TSUTSUI YUSUKE
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 2003-06-18
Abstract: A liquid crystal display device has a liquid crystal panel (210), a DA converter (222) for generating a common electrode signal (Vcom) to be applied to a common electrode of a liquid crystal, and a non-volatile memory (221) for encoding an optimum value of the common electrode signal (Vcom) into an ID code and storing the ID code therein. The DA converter (222) generates the optimum common electrode signal (Vcom) corresponding to the ID code read out from the non-volatile memory (221). A liquid crystal panel manufacturer ships the liquid crystal panel (210) in which the optimum value of the common electrode signal (Vcom) is encoded into the ID code and stored in the non-volatile memory (221) in an inspecting process. The assembling manufacturer using the liquid crystal panel (210) can easily set the optimum value of the common electrode signal (Vcom). Furthermore, the liquid crystal display device has a CPU (300) decoding the ID code read out from the non-volatile memory (221). Alternatively, it is possible to supply a data of a value of the common electrode signal to a user of the liquid crystal. The user adjusts the common electrode signal generating circuit by using the data of the value of the common electrode signal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing of a material compound, in particular a heterogeneous or a non-heterogeneous material compound like a silicon-on-insulator (SOI)-material, comprising the steps of forming of a predetermined splitting area in a source substrate of a first material; attaching the source substrate to a handle substrate of a second material to form a source-handle-compound; and thermal annealing of the source substrate for a thermal splitting of the source substrate at the predetermined splitting area. It is the object of the present invention to provide a method of the above-mentioned type which can be easily carried out with a reduced process time and a very low risk of damage or destruction of the material to get a high quality of the split surface. This object is solved by a method of the above-mentioned type characterised in that the thermal annealing comprises a first annealing step of the source-handle-compound, wherein the first annealing step is stopped before a splitting of the source substrate; and a second annealing step of the source-handle-compound after the first annealing step, wherein the second annealing step is performed at a lower temperature than the first annealing step.

Abstract: A distortion compensation circuit generates a predistortion signal to perform distortion compensation of a power amplifier. The distortion compensation circuit comprises an A/D converter, a subtractor and lookup tables. 
     Predistortion effective for a power amplifier with the memory effect is provided. The A/D converter digitizes a signal voltage value after quadrature modulation, and the result is supplied to the subtractor. A lookup table outputs voltage value data in accordance with an output of the subtractor. The output of the lookup table is used as address data for accessing further respective lookup tables. The lookup tables output an accumulation adding value derived from multiplying, by impulse responses, the signal voltage value after quadrature modulation and supplies the multiplied signal voltage to the subtractor. The voltage value data output from the lookup table is converted by a D/A converter to output it as a predistortion signal for an amplitude component of the power amplifier.
