Patent EP-1349244-A3 (EP)
Inventor: SEO JIN-GYO
IPC: G11B7/125
Filed: 2002-09-05
Abstract: Provided is a laser diode driver for driving a laser
diode in an optical recording/reproducing apparatus, and
more particularly, a laser diode driver having an auto
laser power control (APC) function, an optical pickup
device and an optical recording/reproducing apparatus
using the laser diode driver. The laser diode driver
includes a multiplexer (408), a pulse generator (404), a
differential amplifier (422), and an adder (414). The
multiplexer selectively outputs drive potentials, such as
a peak power drive potential, a bias power drive
potential, a read power drive potential, and the like,
corresponding to power levels of a laser signal in
response to a select signal applied to the multiflexer
(408). The pulse generator (404) generates the select
signal applied to the multiplexer (408). The differential
amplifier (422) calculates a difference between a monitor
signal provided from a monitor diode for monitoring the
laser signal output from the laser diode and a drive
potential selected by the multiplexer (408). The adder
(414) adds an output of the differential amplifier (422)
and an output of the multiplexer (408) and outputs a
signal for driving the laser diode. The laser diode
driver itself performs the APC function, and thus can
prevent malfunction caused by electromagnetic
interference.

Abstract: Flexible and efficient systems and methods for organizing, analyzing, and processing digital ink incrementally analyze input data (e.g., representing ink strokes) as the user continues to add to, edit, or modify the data. In this manner, processing is performed promptly as the ink is entered, and the processing system and method can effectively keep up with the user. This prevents long processing delays, because the systems and methods need not first process a large volume of ink data present after the user has entered has completely filled a page with ink. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An imaging and recording apparatus for
electrically recording an optical image of a subject as
an image information signal which facilitates memory
access from an external device and prevents image
information from being changed. Upon manipulation of a
recording trigger switch (5), an image outputted from a
camera signal processing circuit (17) at that time is
written into a semiconductor memory (12), then subjected
to data compression in a data compression circuit (21),
and stored in a semiconductor memory (13). It is now
assumed that an external device not illustrated is
connected to a connector (14) and this external device
orders taking in the image of the semiconductor memory
(13). If at this time the semiconductor memory (13) is
writing an image, a state detection circuit (23) detects
the fact and inhibits the external device from taking in
the image. Furthermore, while the external device is
taking in the image of the semiconductor memory (13),
the state detection circuit (23) detects this fact. 
Even if the recording trigger switch (5) is manipulated,
an AND gate (6) turns off in response to an output of
the state detection circuit and inhibits image writing
into the semiconductor memory (13).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of
modifying Angiotensin II subtype 1 (AT 1 ) receptor activity
for the treatment of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) and the
symptoms associated therewith, and further relates to a
method for the treatment of acute or chronic pain mediated
by the sympathetic nervous system. The treatment includes
the administration of an effective amount of an AT 1 
antagonist. AT 1  antagonists are drugs that are capable of
blocking AT 1  receptors present within the body throughout
the central nervous system including the hypothalamus. By
blocking the AT 1  receptor activity, hypothalamic nerve
activity, and therefore, sympathetic nerve activity are
modulated. Thus, an effective method for treating
sympathetically mediated pain is provided, as well as an
effective method for treating PMS. The AT 1  antagonist can
be used alone or in combination with other drug therapies,
for instance, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs,
antidepressants, opiod drugs, angiotensin converting
enzyme inhibitors, and diuretics.

Abstract: An objective lens driving apparatus for an optical
pickup includes a blade (20) on which an objective lens
(10) is mounted, a plurality of elastic support members
(W1-W6) supporting the blade (20) and capable of
elastically moving with respect to the blade (20), and a
servo mechanism driving the blade up and down, left and
right, and in a rotational direction. The elastic support
members (W1-W6) are grouped into pairs of the elastic
support members arranged to face each other with respect
to a center of rotation of the blade, and distances
between the elastic support members in the respective
pairs are identical. Thus, by almost removing a
difference in the amount of deformation between the
elastic support members supporting the blade during tilt
control, the elastic support members are prevented from
being moved in arbitrary directions when a small impact or
vibration is applied or generated. Thus, the control of
the position of the objective lens can be stably
performed.
