Abstract: Performance improvement during a track following operation in a disk drive
is achieved by dedicating hardware to monitor specific anomalies during track following and
to interrupt the processor only when specific, programmable criteria have been violated. An
exemplary system comprises a servo miscue detector for checking (100) a servo sector for a
miscue; a miscue counter coupled to the servo miscue detector for counting (110) a number
of miscues; counter reset logic (105) coupled to the miscue counter; a comparator for
comparing (115) the number of miscues to a predetermined threshold to generate an output;
generate interrupt logic for generating (120) a microprocessor interrupt responsive to the
output of the comparator; and a microprocessor to initiate an error recovery sequence (125)
responsive to the controller. The servo miscue detector, the miscue counter, the counter reset
logic, the comparator, and the generate interrupt logic are implemented in hardware.

Inventor: PANDOLFO MARIO
IPC: C02F1/48
Filed: 2000-04-12
Abstract: A cracking procedure is provided with an electronic
apparatus including a set of coils coaxial to a stainless
steel pipe through which the liquid or gas flows and, thanks
to a precise resonance obtained within an absolutely exact
time constant, is able to interfere at the molecular level,
breaking down macromolecules into micromolecules. The
resonances are repeated within a carefully defined range by
the coils, in a constant manner relative to the cyclic
fragmentation for the frequency portions, subject to
variations due to the capacitance within each cycle, which
varies as a function of the temperature, resistance, and the
fluid mass flowing through the stainless steel pipe on which
the coils are wound.

Inventor: SMALLEY RICHARD E
IPC: C01B31/02
Filed: 2000-10-27
Abstract: The present invention is directed to the creation of macroscopic materials and objects comprising aligned nanotube segments. The invention entails aligning single-wall carbon nanotube (SWNT) segments that are suspended in a fluid medium and then removing the aligned segments from suspension in a way that macroscopic, ordered assemblies of SWNT are formed. The invention is further directed to controlling the natural proclivity or nanotube segments to self assemble into or ordered structures by modifying the environment of the nanotubes and the history of that environment prior to and during the process. The materials and objects are "macroscopic" in that they are large enough to be seen without the aid of a microscope or of the dimensions of such objects. These macroscopic ordered SWNT materials and objects have the remarkable physical, electrical, and chemical properties that SWNT exhibit on the microscopic scale because they are comprised of nanotubes, each of which is aligned in the same direction and in contact with its nearest neighbors. An ordered assembly of closest SWNT also serves as a template for growth of more and larger ordered assemblies. An ordered assembly further serves as a foundation for post processing treatments that modify the assembly internally to specifically enhance selected material properties such as shear strength, tensile strength, compressive strength, toughness, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity.

IPC: H01L21/66
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: A sample is inspected by moving to a first field associated with a first group of test structures, which are partially within the first field, which is scanned to determine whether there are any defects present. If defects are present a specific defect location is determined by repeatedly stepping to areas and scanning such areas within the first group of test structures. In a second method, a sample is scanned in a first direction and in a second direction at an angle to the first direction with at least one particle beam. The number of defects per area of the sample are found as a result of the first scan, and the position of one or more of the found defects is determined from the second scan. A semiconductor die includes test structures located entirely within a scanning area and only partially within the scanning area. The test structures are arranged so that a scan of the scanning area results in detection of defects outside of the scanning area.

Abstract: In SDH-based transmission systems with redundancy,
in the event of failure in the service transmission
lines (SL), before the service traffic communication
path set in the service transmission lines (SL) is
switched to the protection transmission lines (PL), if
there is a communication path for sub traffic set in
the protection transmission lines (PL), the AU-AIS
signal is inserted at the exit to lower-tier terminals
to terminate the sub traffic communication path.
Unless there is a communication path set for sub
traffic in the protection transmission lines (PL), the
UNEQ signal is inserted at the exit to lower-tier
terminals which are substantially connected to the
protection transmission lines (PL) to terminate the sub
traffic communication path. Later, the service traffic
communication path is switched to the protection
transmission lines. Then a misconnect during
redundancy lines switching is prevented and the
possibility of leak of the service traffic transmission
information is eliminated.

Abstract: To facilitate the use of portable digital devices such as cell phones, printer
processing stations are proposed for printing the information that is accessible through the
portable digital devices. In general, the portable digital devices have easy access to an

printer stations allow the user to print a selectable portion of the information at one of the
predetermined locations and conveniently charge the user for a print fee.
