Patent EP-1394943-A3 (EP)
Inventor: NAKAJIMA KAZUHIRO
IPC: G01R31/27
Filed: 2003-08-29
Abstract: A ring oscillator for a test apparatus and method for verifying
fabrication of transistors in an integrated circuit on a die under test is
implemented. The ring oscillator is fabricated on the die and includes
a positive feedback loop between a circuit output terminal and a
feedback input terminal. The feedback loop includes a plurality of
delaying stages connected in cascade. A transfer gate is coupled to
each delaying stage. Each of the transfer gates includes a pair of
transistors of the first and second conductivity types connected in
parallel. The ring oscillator is operable to provide a first oscillator
output signal during a first test mode when the transistors of the first
conductivity type are ON and the transistors of the second
conductivity type are OFF. The ring oscillator is operable to provide a
second oscillator output signal during a second test mode when the
transistors of the first conductivity type are OFF and the transistors of
the second conductivity type are ON. The ring oscillator is operable to
provide a second oscillator output signal during a second test mode
when the transistors of the first conductivity type are ON and the
transistors of the second conductivity type are ON.

Abstract: A cross-point switch fabric slice (100) includes multistage
gated buffer tree (135) incorporating at least first and second
serially connected gated buffer stages (136, 138). N inputs
(102-116) connect to preselected gated buffers (146-160) in the
first gated buffer stage (136). The multistage gated buffer
tree provides a signal path from any of the N inputs (102-116)
to at least one switch output (118) in response to gated buffer
stage control signals for the first gated buffer stage (136) and
gated buffer stage control signals for the second gated buffer
stage (138). Generally, the number of gated buffers decreases
from that of the previous stage. As an input signal propagates
through the cross-point switch fabric slice (100), longer
internal connections are driven by more capable buffers.

Abstract: A method for determining a present air density for an imaging mechanism
(20) is presented. During a first time period (77, 101, 105): in a determining and
storing action, a nominal air density is stored (66, 100). In an increasing action, a
fan input is increased (72, 96) until a known pressure in a cavity coupled to a fan
receiving the fan input has been reached. In a determining and storing action, a
nominal fan parameter is determined and stored (74, 76, 98, 108) after the known
pressure is reached. During a second time period (95, 103, 109): in an increasing
action, the fan input is increased (84) until the known pressure in the cavity has
been reached. In a determining action, a present fan parameter is determined (86,
106) after the known pressure is reached. In a calculating action, the present air
density is calculated (88, 102, 108) from the present fan parameter, the nominal fan
parameter, and either the known pressure or the nominal air density.
