Title: Biological information measurement apparatus
IPC: A61B5/00
Filed: 1987-07-01
Abstract: A biological information measurement apparatus is adapted to measure biological information in an extracorporeal circuration or in a living body by various measurement circuits comprising circuit elements which are not affected by electrical disturbances, and to transmit the results of measurement in the form of a non-electrical signal which is not affected by electrical disturbances. Measured values from measurement sections are gathered at a central processing section separated from the measurement sections. The processing section converts the measured values into output values, compensates the values for temperature and outputs the values to a display unit and recorder.

terminal block from which the request signal has been 
issued. The center office further includes a unit (15, 
16, 17) for determining optimum terminal numbers for the 
respective terminal blocks and allocating terminals in 
the respective terminal blocks in response to the data 
transfer request signal from the terminals during the 
terminal polling, to minimize a total polling time. The 
block polling unit and the terminal polling unit carry 
out the polling on the basis of the newly allocated 
terminal blocks and terminals.

Abstract: A data recording medium includes a recording 
layer which comprises a polymer liquid crystal and a 
metal chelate compound or soluble large cyclic 
colorant contained therein. The data recording

Abstract: Zur Gewährleistung der Abdichtung einer Gummiwalze (1, 2, n) 
an deren Stirnseiten (1.1, 2.1, n.1; 1.2) mittels gegen diese 
Stirnseiten angestellter Dichtplatten über einen verlängerten

Patent EP-0366967-A3 (EP)
IPC: H01L21/8249
Filed: 1989-10-05
Abstract: A method for fabricating an integrated circuit having a buried doped region is 
disclosed. A thermal oxide layer (26) is formed over a portion of a p-type 
substrate (20) at which an n+ buried doped region (30) is not to be formed, 
masking the implant for the buried doped region (30). Anneal of the implant is 
performed in an oxidizing atmosphere, growing further oxide (28) over the 
surface. The oxide layers (26, 28) are removed, and a p-type blanket implant is 
performed for isolation purposes and, if desired, to form a p-type buried doped 
region (31); the doping concentration of the n+ buried doped region (30) 
retards diffusion of the boron to the surface thereover. Alternately, a higher, 
than normal doping level in the substrate can provide sufficient boron for 
isolation. An epitaxial layer (32) is then grown over the surface, and the n-well 
(40) is formed by implanting n-type dopant, with the p-well regions masked by 
a nitride mask; anneal of the n-well is also done in an oxidizing environment, so 
that consumption of a portion of the n-well (40) by the oxide (42) further 
planarizes the topography of the device.

Patent EP-0327408-A3 (EP)
IPC: G10L15/00
Filed: 1989-02-06
Abstract: A voice language translator, suitable 
for implementation in hand-held size. 
The translator includes: a key pad (20); a display 
system (17); a language cartridge(s); 
a voice recognition module; a voice 
synthesizer; a speaker; a microphone; and a programmed CPU. 
Prior to use as a translator, the voice 
language translator is trained to the voice 
of a user. As the user speaks the words 
and phrases, the voice recognition circuit 
produces a digitally coded voice pattern 
that uniquely identifies the user. 
The voice patterns are analyzed and 
stored. Thereafter, during translation, when the user 
speaks a sentence, the voice pattern 
produced by the voice recognition circuit is 
compared with the stored voice patterns 
to determine the nature of the spoken 
sentence. The result of the comparison 
is used to locate equivalent translations 
stored in the cartridge. 
Strings of words and phrases that make up 
sentences are combinable only in a 
logical manner. Illogical combinations 
of words and phrases are ignored. 
If the translator does not understand a spoken word 
or phrase, a list of acceptable words and 
phrases is displayed. With a cursor 
a desired word or phrase 
can be selected. The logical 
string combinations of equivalent 
translations are converted to audible sounds. 
If desired, a visual display, or 
an audible emission, in the language 
of the user can be made to occur 
before the translated emission takes place.

Title: Data error detection and correction
IPC: H03M5/20
Filed: 1989-07-12
Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing data error detection and 
correction is disclosed for multi-level logic and in particular, 
three-level trinary logic of levels 0, 1, 2. A source of trinary data 
supplies individual pieces of data (trits of 0, or 1, or 2) in multiple 
trit groups (trytes) to two separate check trit generators which gener­
ate unique check trits for each tryte input. The check trits from the 
two check trit generators are compared to form syndrome trits which are 
used to control an error detection function. For single errors per 
tryte a data correction function is activated to increment or decrement 
the incorrect data through a multiplexer. Multiple errors or no error 
conditions are indicated, but do not gate the data correction function.
