Abstract: A charge coupled device (10) having a layer (16) of a semiconductor material on a surface (14) of a substrate body (12) of a semiconductor material. The layer (16) is of a material which can be epitaxially deposited on the body with good crystalline quality. The material of the layer (16) has a conduction band and/or valence band which is different from that of the body (12) so as to provide a discontinuity in the energy level of the conduction band and/or valance band at the junction of the layer (16) and the body (12) during the operation of the charge coupled device. At least one electrode (20) is over and insulated from the layer (16). The discontinuity in the conduction band and/or valence band creates a well in which photogenerated charge is collected.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system that determines whether input and output pins of semiconductor components (1006, 1022) are present and properly soldered to a circuit assembly. The system includes an oscillator (1004) which is connected to a probe that is brought into contact with a circuit assembly wiring trace (1020, 1024) soldered to the pin (1034, 1038) being tested. A conductive electrode (1008, 1030) is placed on top of the component (1006, 1022) and connected to a capacitance measuring circuit (1018). The oscillator (1004) signal is capacitively coupled through the integrated circuit package to the pin being tested, so if capacitance is measured by the capacitance measuring device (1018), the pin is connected to the circuit assembly. An amplifier (1014) may be connected to the conductive electrode to amplify the signal, and a segmented probe (602) may be used to isolate individual pins. The probe may be shielded (902), and unused pins may be grounded (822, 824).

Abstract: Method and apparatus for multiprotocol operation of an interactive network board which ties a peripheral to a local area network and which executes first and second peripheral servers for servicing jobs from respectively different operating systems. The first server checks its operating system job queue and receives job information from the operating system according to a first protocol. The first server seizes exclusive control over the peripheral and signals to other servers that the first server has control. In coordination with the first server, the second server checks its operating system job queue and receives job information from the operating system. When the first server relinquishes control over the peripheral, the second server can seize exclusive control over the peripheral so as to send its job information to the peripheral. Preferably, while each server has exclusive control over the peripheral, it checks with other servers to determine whether those other servers have pending requests for use of the peripheral. If there are pending requests, then control over the server can be relinquished at the end of a job, even though there are remaining jobs in the job queues, so as to allow alternate usage of the peripheral by each server. The interactive network board automatically and adaptively determines the frame packet types being used for LAN communication by the respective operating systems by prescanning broadcast requests on the LAN bus for predetermined header information corresponding to each of the operating protocol stacks (or towers) for the servers, such as to search for SPX/IPX headers for Novell operating systems and to search for TCP/IP headers for UNIX operating systems.

Abstract: The invention prevents unauthorized use of data in communications. When terminals (2) with different data transmission rates are simultaneously connected to a host computer (1), the host computer (1) sets a single common data communication rate to all the terminals (2) to assure synchronization. The host computer (1) sends a data body to each terminal (2) over an unilateral communications link (3) in a cyclic manner while a bilateral communications link (4) is established between the host computer (1) and each terminal (2). Response to an individual request from each terminal (2), the host computer (1) downloads descrambling data for descrambling and a loader for executing the data body. The host computer (1) determines from among the terminals (2), any terminal (2) having a communications means that sets the lowest data transmission rate, and sets the data transmission rates of the terminals (2) simultaneously connected thereto to the lowest rate.

Abstract: A method of finishing the tooth flanks of gear-shaped workpieces using an abrasive tool in the shape of an internal gear is presented in which the tool is dressed with a dressing wheel in the same set-up after each workpiece or after several workpieces. The tooth system of the dressing wheel corresponds to that of the gear-shaped workpieces and its tooth flanks are covered with extremely hard abrasive grains. To improve the tool geometry, the dressing of the tool in the shape of an internal gear is to be effected with single- or double-flank contact between the dressing wheel and the tool in the shape of an internal gear and with electronic positive guidance of the rolling and relative movements between the dressing wheel and the tool in the shape of an internal gear, and the finishing is to be effected in the free or instantaneously guided double-flank engagement between the tool in the shape of an internal gear and the workpiece. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Image data define an image that shows an input graphical representation (12) whose configuration represents information. The image can show a sketch, for example. The image data are used to obtain category data (20) indicating a category of graphical representations. For example, the category data (20) could indicate any of X-Y graph, directed graph, undirected graph, bar graph, pie chart, line graph, scatter plot, circuit diagram, flow chart, Venn diagram, state-transition diagram, tree, table, matrix, or array. The category data (20) could also indicate a specific category within a generic category such as bar graph or pie chart. The category data (20) can be obtained by determining whether the graphical representation (12) satisfies a constraint on each category. Each category's constraint may be applied to parts of the input image (10) that meet a feature candidate criterion, which may be different for each specific category in a generic category, even though the feature candidates must satisfy another constraint that is the same for all specific categories in the generic category. The category data (20) are then used to obtain content data (30) indicating information represented by the input graphical representation's configuration, and an output image (40) is obtained with an output graphical representation (42), with a configuration representing the information indicated by the content data (30). The output graphical representation (42) can be more precisely formed than the input graphical representation (12). The output graphical representation (42) can be in the same generic category as the input graphical representation, but possibly in a different specific category, or it can be in a different generic category.

Abstract: A three way switching controller (1) for handling high purity gas, and the like, used for a semiconductor manufacturing plant, and the like, prevents lines on switching sides thereof from communicating with each other at time of switching. The three way switching controller includes a body (2), first and second valves (3 and 4), a cylinder (5), and a linking mechanism (6), with the linking mechanism including a disengagement device (7). The cylinder, operating through the linking mechanism, alternately opens and closes normally-closed valves.
