Abstract: The invention provides apparatus and a method of scan testing digital logic circuits, in particular faults in circuit operation during operational transitions in the circuit. The system is intended for use in testing a logic circuit which is driven by high frequency oscillating means and an external clock, which external clock during normal operation is used to time control of the operation of the circuit; system disabling the external clock, synchronising testing means with the internal oscillating means, performing testing on the circuit while the external clock is disabled and re-enabling the external clock following testing. In the preferred embodiment, the test clock is synchronised with a PLL. The preferred embodiments address the difficulties with the conventional test methodology by synchronising the test clock with the phase locked loop internal to the IC. The advantages include: switching between external and PLL clocks is always clean, so that there are no "runt" pulses which would invalidate the test; there are no critical timings of external signals, so that it is possible to run very high speed scan-based transition fault tests (say 500 MHz) using low cost ATE capable only of modest speed (50 MHz) and pin edge placement accuracy; and the synchroniser circuit allows for a pre-programmed number of PLL pulses to be emitted to test faults which require several capture cycles to produce and capture the relevant transition. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The moving hearth (2) is continuously or intermittently moved downward by the elevating devices (8) depending on the thickness of a metal oxide layer formed by the deposition of powder of metal oxide agglomerates mixed into the furnace together with the metal oxide agglomerates so that a gap is provided between the surface of the metal oxide layer and the edge of the blade of a discharge screw (4) during operation. A means for preventing the formation of a metal plate and a method for operating the same are provided instead of a means and method including the vertical movement of a discharger for reduced metal, so that the maintenance work can be significantly reduced in a moving-hearth heating furnace, in which metal oxide agglomerates containing a carbonaceous material is placed on a moving hearth, the metal oxide agglomerates are heated and reduced to form reduced metal agglomerates, and the reduced metal agglomerates are discharged from the furnace by a discharger to produce reduced metal.   <IMAGE>

Abstract: A bipolar assembly for filter-press type electrolyzers is described comprising a single sheet, whose two faces work respectively as anodic and cathodic wall, characterised by a design of perimetral flanges which greatly simplifies its construction enhancing its reliability. The peripheral flanges are made of a first flange obtained by folding the peripheral portion of the single sheet and of a second flange formed by a rod or a tube with quadrangular section or, alternatively, the first and second flange are pre-formed by folding of adequate strips subsequently fixed to the single sheet. The electrolyser resulting from the assemblage of a multiplicity of assemblies of the invention is particularly suited to the process of electrolysis of hydrochloric acid solutions carried out with chlorine-evolving anodes and oxygen-consuming cathodes.

Abstract: A frequency-stabilized laser source that is adapted for use as a frequency standard. The frequency of the laser source is locked and the laser beam delivered by the laser source on a transition of an absorber chemical element. The technique combines both operation with saturated absorption and synchronous detection, based on modulating said transition being saturated by the beam passing through the absorber chemical element. This produces a single frequency laser beam whose output frequency is stationary. The frequency is not continuously modulated and is more precise than that which would be obtained operating with single-pass absorption only. The laser source is thus adapted for making a frequency standard.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé d'itinérance entre un réseau local sans fil (WLAN) et un réseau cellulaire, ce procédé permettant de faire fonctionner en concordance le réseau WLAN et le réseau cellulaire sur la base d'un système IP mobile pour obtenir une itinérance sans difficulté. Selon ce procédé d'itinérance entre le réseau WLAN et le réseau cellulaire, dans le cadre de la communication de données dans le réseau WLAN et/ou le réseau cellulaire au moyen du système IP mobile, un noeud serveur de données par paquets du réseau cellulaire qui identifie l'affectation d'une adresse IP à un terminal mobile spécifique transmet des informations sur un état actuel d'accès du terminal mobile à un moyen de gestion de points d'accès du réseau WLAN situé dans un secteur de service actuel du terminal mobile. Au cours d'une deuxième étape, le moyen de gestion de points d'accès auquel le terminal mobile vient d'accéder demande un renouvellement d'adresse pour remplacer une adresse du noeud serveur de données par paquets par son adresse, affecte une adresse IP au terminal mobile en fonction du résultat du renouvellement et en informe le noeud serveur de données par paquets. Au cours d'une troisième étape, le noeud serveur de données par paquets qui reçoit le message de notification envoyé par le moyen de gestion de points d'accès transmet les données obtenues au cours de l'itinérance en raison du déplacement vers le noeud de gestion de points d'accès. L'itinérance a lieu du réseau cellulaire au réseau WLAN, mais elle peut être effectuée de la même manière du réseau WLAN au réseau cellulaire.
