Abstract: A summing amplifier (310) of a temperature compensated voltage-controlled crystal oscillator circuit is provided with an integrated low-pass filter. A very high-value integrated resistance (Ron, M2) is provided at the input of the summing amplifier (310) so that the control voltages to be summed are applied through respective series resistors (R1,R2,R3) to one terminal of said integrated resistance and then further through the integrated resistance to the inverting input of the summing amplifier. Further, a feedback capacitor (C) is connected between the inverting input and an output of the summing amplifier (310). In the preferred embodiment of the invention, the integrated resistance is provided by the on-resistance (Ron) of a mosfet transistor (M2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An improved system for magnetorheological finishing of a substrate comprising a vertically oriented bowl-shaped carrier wheel having a horizontal axis. The carrier wheel is preferably an equatorial section of a sphere, such that the carrier surface is spherical. The wheel includes a radial circular plate connected to rotary drive means and supporting the spherical surface which extends laterally from the plate. An electromagnet having planar north and south pole pieces is disposed within the wheel, within the envelope of the sphere and preferably within the envelope of the spherical section defined by the wheel. The magnets extend over a central wheel angle of about 120° such that magnetorheological fluid is maintained in a partially stiffened state ahead of and beyond the work zone. A magnetic scraper removes the MRF from the wheel as the stiffening is relaxed and returns it to a conventional fluid delivery system for conditioning and re-extrusion onto the wheel. The system is useful in finishing large concave substrates, which must extend beyond the edges of the wheel, as well as for finishing very large substrates in a work zone at the bottom dead center position of the wheel.

Abstract: A layer of sacrificial material is formed over a substrate. Then, a contoured surface is developed in the sacrificial material, such as by molding the sacrificial material using a mold or stamp. The contoured surface provides a mold for at least one spring form, and preferably for an array of spring forms. If necessary, the sacrificial layer is then cured or hardened. A layer of spring material is deposited over the contoured surface of the sacrificial material, in a pattern to define at least one spring form, and preferably an array of spring forms. The sacrificial material is then at least partially removed from beneath the spring form to reveal at least one freestanding spring structure. A separate conducting tip is optionally attached to each resulting spring structure, and each structure is optionally plated or covered with an additional layer or layers of material, as desired. An alternative method for making a resilient contact structure using the properties of a fluid meniscus is additionally disclosed. In an initial step of the alternative method, a layer of material is provided over a substrate. Then, a recess is developed in the material, and fluid is provided in the recess to form a meniscus. The fluid is cured or hardened to stabilize the contoured shape of the meniscus. The stabilized meniscus is then used to define a spring form in the same manner as the molded surface in the sacrificial material.

A clamp body rotationally fixed to the other support directly engages the seal ring and presses the seal ring directly against an abutment. Interengaging tooth formations on the clamp body and on the seal ring arrest the seal ring on the other support against angular movement thereon while permitting relative radial movement.

Abstract: L'invention a trait à un système (100) et à un procédé destinés au calibrage d'une matrice à plan focal (FPA), à l'aide d'une source de calibrage (30) non uniforme interne. Dans le mode de  réalisation ci-présenté, le système (100) comprend : un premier mécanisme (16), permettant de calculer le gain relatif de chaque élément détecteur dans la matrice à plan focal (20) par rapport à au moins un élément de référence ; un deuxième mécanisme (17), permettant d'obtenir le gain absolu de l'élément de référence ; et un troisième mécanisme (18), permettant de calculer le gain absolu de tous les autres éléments détecteurs, en utilisant conjointement les gains relatifs et le gain absolu de l'élément de référence. La réponse relative de chaque pixel est calculée, à partir des mesures de la réponse de chaque pixel, à l'aide d'une source de calibrage (30) interne située à au moins deux positions de source différentes, et présentant deux intensités d'éclairement à chaque position. Les mesures faisant appel à une paire de positions de source séparées par k pixels établissent la réponse relative du ie pixel par rapport au (i+k)e pixel. A l'aide de cette relation récursive et d'autres paires de positions de source possédant un vecteur de déplacement k différent, la réponse relative de chaque pixel dans la FPA peut être établie. On effectue ensuite le calibrage radiométrique absolu d'au moins un pixel de référence, à l'aide d'une source externe (40) connue, telle qu'une étoile. On peut ensuite obtenir le calibrage de la réponse absolue de chaque pixel, en combinant la relation récursive et les pixels de référence.
