Filed: 2003-04-23
Abstract: The edge shaping method has a surface layer (6) applied to one of the major surfaces of the semiconductor wafer (1) so that at least part the outer edge region of the surface remains uncovered, with subsequent material removal from the peripheral edge of the semiconductor wafer until the part of the surface covered by the surface layer is reached, e.g. using a grinding wheel (11) with a concave surface (13). The opposing major surface of the semiconductor wafer is then ground down until a required wafer thickness is reached.

IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2003-09-09
Abstract: In a network system, clock signals of a server device(1) and a client device(2) are synchronized with each other without having any influence of a change and a delay of the transmission time of data. 
     Therefore, in the network system in which the client device(2) receives and reproduces information transmitted from the server device(1), the server device(1) counts the number of clock pulses of a server clock signal used to compress and encode information on the basis of a power source synchronous pulse signal synchronized with a power source frequency. The server device(1) outputs information showing the counted clock pulse number and the compressed and encoded information to the client device(2). The client device(2) counts the number of clock pulses of a client clock signal used to decode and decompress the compressed and encoded information on the basis of the power source synchronous pulse signal synchronized with the power source frequency. The client device(2) conforms the frequency of the client clock signal to the frequency of the server clock signal on the basis of the clock difference between the clock pulse number received from the server device and the counted clock pulse number.

IPC: G09G3/298
Filed: 2003-12-22
Abstract: The present invention is a plasma display device and display
panel drive method that allow a more rapid select operation
to be stably implemented by increasing the discharge
probability of selective discharge. The panel of the display device
comprises pixel cells (PC) consisting of a display discharge
cell (C1) and a control discharge cell (C2). The display device
further comprises an address means that sequentially applies a
positive scan pulse to a first row electrode of each of the
display panel row electrode pairs in the address cycle
while sequentially applying a pixel data pulse
corresponding to the pixel data at the same timing as the
scan pulse to each of the display panel column electrodes
one display line at a time so that the column electrode
side constitutes a cathode, such that an address discharge
is selectively produced in the second discharge cell. A
sustain means applies a sustain pulse to each of the
row electrodes constituting the row electrode pairs in the
sustain cycle, and the sustain means applies the ultimate
sustain pulse of the sustain pulses applied in the address
cycle to the first row electrode with a negative polarity.
