Patent EP-0577102-A2 (EP)
Inventor: ISHIDA HIDEO C O NEC CORPORATI
IPC: G06F12/00
Filed: 1993-06-30
Abstract: In an address formation circuit for an image processing, an address formation is separately processed in parallel like a pipeline by first and second address calculation means. The first address calculation means controllable by a program calculates a head address of a macroblock, and the second address calculation means calculates addresses of pixels within the macroblock on the basis of the head address calculated by the first address calculation means. An instruction memory stores the program and a data meory and a data file memory store address moving amounts required the calculations. A sequence controller controls an exclusive hardware. Hence, a high speed memory access like a real time image processing in the address formation can be possible and, when a complicated address pattern is required, an overhead of the address formation time in the instruction processing can be prevented.

Abstract: A polarization separator for separating orthogonal polarization waves (H,V) into a horizontal polarization wave component (H) and a vertical polarization wave component (V) is minimized in size. A metal pole in the form of a thin metal bar (8) is disposed in a circular waveguide (4) of a waveguide member (1) into which the orthogonal polarization waves are introduced, and reflects the horizontal polarization wave component so that it is outputted through an output terminal (5) formed in a circumferential wall of the waveguide member. Meanwhile, the vertical polarization wave component propagates in a substantially rectangular waveguide provided rearwardly of the metal pole and is outputted from another output terminal (15). Since the rectangular waveguide is formed in a cutoff structure for the horizontal polarization wave component, the reflection means can be formed from the metal pole in the form of a thin bar, and consequently, the polarization separator can be minimized.

Abstract: Control of the self-testing of a plurality of elements (12 1  - 12   m   ), each having a Built-In, Self-Test (BIST) capability, and arranged in one or more groups (14 1  - 14   n   ), is carried out by a network (16) of one or more standard BIST resource interface controllers (SBRICs 18 1  - 18   n   ). Each SBRIC in the network controls the self-testing of the elements in a separate one of the groups in sequence by broadcasting a test command to the elements in parallel which, in response, generate test signatures stored by the SBRIC. The SBRICs in the network are coupled in series in daisy chain fashion to enable the test signatures stored by the SBRICs to be concatenated for easy retrieval by shifting out the test signatures therefrom, using a technique such as boundary scan.

The film may also be shaped in the form of a convex lens to direct impedance matched microwave energy toward the food to elevate the temperature of the food in a predetermined area. Further, the flake material may be present in the binder in an amount sufficient to provide microwave shielding.

Abstract: The lock is particularly of the mortise type, having a stop lever actuated by a button protruding from the surface, stopping the catch from turning backwards when pressed inwards. The lever moves into the free position when the catch is pulled back under the action of an arm on the knob, and also on changing over into the release position. A free passage (F1, F2) is formed on pulling the catch back. The passage is formed between the knob arm (24) and the catch (18), and also between the latter and the changeover lever. There can be a chain link (58) between the knob arm to the middle part (50) of the section (44) of changeover lever. This has a coupling formed by a pin working in a slot (60), so that movement is possible with the knob arm stationary. The stop lever (35) can be movable by this part of the two-part change-over lever, the latter having an extension (51) engaging with the catch behind its head (19).

Abstract: A CPU introduces software commands to a first limited capacity memory (e.g. FIFO), on an integrated circuit chip. Data (e.g. graphics) from a first portion of a second memory (off chip) is processed in accordance with such commands. A second portion (e.g. FIFO) of the second memory may also store commands normally passing from the CPU through the first memory. When the first memory becomes full, the commands may pass from the CPU through the second portion of the second memory (which may have a storage capacity considerably greater than that of the first memory) and then through the first memory. The commands may continue to flow in this auxiliary path until the second portion of the second memory becomes empty. A third memory of a limited capacity on the chip may pass the commands from the CPU to the first memory in the normal operation or to the second portion of the second memory when the first memory becomes full. The CPU may also pass commands to other peripheral equipment while a ready line is high. When low, the ready line prevents commands from passing to the peripheral equipment while the third memory is full. However, a command may pass from the third memory to the first or second memory to make the ready line high. A counter indicates the number of commands in the first and third memories and the second portion of the second memory. Software occasionally interrogates the counter to update in the software the number of commands in the counter.

Abstract: An object of the invention is to provide a light bulb socket that prevents the erroneous insertion of a light bulb. A light bulb socket has contactor inserting slits 15 and 16 with their inlets 15a and 16a at the edge of the opening of a bulb engaging section 12, and bulb inserting grooves 31. The inlets 31a of bulb inserting grooves 31 have smaller heights than the inlets 15a and 16a of the contactor inserting slits 15 and 16. The edge of the opening of the bulb inserting section slopes from each of the inlets 15a and 16a down to the inlets 31a, thus providing guide surfaces 36. The light bulb is connected to the bulb socket by turning it clockwise and counterclockwise with its base inserted into the bulb engaging section 12. Even if, in this operation, locking pins 6 protruded from the bulb base are located near the inlets 15a and 16a of the contactor inserting slits 15 and 16, they are not focused into the inlets 15a and 16a, and instead are slid down the guide surfaces 36, because the edge of the opening of the bulb engaging section 12 slopes from each of the inlets 15a and 16a down to the inlets 31a. When, under this condition, the light bulb 1 is pushed into the bulb socket S, the pins 6 are led along the guide surfaces 36 to the inlets 31a of the bulb inserting grooves 31.

Abstract: Alignment correction coefficients are calculated by a method of least squares with reference to the coordinates of each of the alignment marks and the coordinates of the rational grid points. Corrected coordinates of the alignment marks are derived from the coordinates of the rational grid points on the basis of the alignment mark correction coefficients, each of their statistical functions are calculated, and the differences of these coordinates are calculated. The residuals at each of the alignment marks are calculated with reference to the difference between the alignment displacement tolerance values in the predetermined X and Y directions and their coordinates. The corrected coordinates of the alignment marks associated with the first pattern for optically exposing the second pattern from the alignment mark correction coefficients and their random number elements when the residual sum of squares becomes a minimum value. In this way, optimal correction of the alignment can be carried out even in the case that the random elements in the alignment mark displacement components from the rational grid point do not follow a normal distribution.
