Abstract: A timing signal generator includes a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), a logic circuit, N set circuits and N reset circuits and a bistable latch circuit. The VCO produces a set of N reference signals frequency locked to a reference clock signal and distributed in phase so as to evenly resolve the reference clock period into N intervals. The logic circuit asserts ones of N set signals and N reset signals selected by input control words. Each set circuit receives one of the N set signals and one of the N reference signals and briefly couples an output node to high logic level source in response to a leading edge of the received reference signal when its received set signal is asserted. Each reset circuit receives one of the N reset signals and one of the N reference signals and briefly couples the output node to low logic level source in response to a leading edge of its received reference signal when it reset signal is asserted. The bistable circuit maintains the output node at its current logic level after the output node is decoupled from either of the sources. The timing of leading and trailing edges of pulses of the output timing signal may be controlled with a resolution that is 1/Nth of the period of the reference clock by supplying an appropriate control word sequence to the logic circuit.

Abstract: The vehicle has one or more wheels (2) driven by traction motors (3) which are supplied from a generator (5) via a DC intermediate circuit (6). The generator is coupled mechanically to the engine (4) which is also controlled by a unit (7) connected (8) to the accelerator pedal (11). When the pedal is depressed the rotational speed of a driven wheel is measured (12) and communicated (9) to a comparator (13) in the control unit. The comparison yields a set-point (14) for the driving torque which is adjusted (20) by action on the traction motors.

Abstract: A method for monitoring a fluid flow, particularly in a building drinking water supply pipe, in order to detect water loss therefrom, is disclosed. The method comprises a first step of measuring the flow rate at a first predetermined time, a step of storing the resulting first measurement and a second step of measuring the flow rate at a second predetermined time if the measurement is higher than a selected value, and a step of comparing the resulting second measurement with the stored measurement. If the measurements at the first and second times differ by more than a predetermined tolerance, the method is stopped and optionally later repeated, and if the two measurements differ by less than the predetermined tolerance, the result of the comparison is reported and/or the supply of fluid is cut off. If two resulting compared measurements differ by less than the predetermined tolerance, the result of the last comparison is reported and/or the supply of fluid is cut off.

Abstract: In a CCD imager 1, charge is accumulated in pixels of an image area 2 representative of the intensity of incident radiation and is subsequently transferred to a store section 3 and then on a row by row basis to an output register 4 by applying suitable drive pulses to electrodes 7 and 8. Signal charge in the output register 4 is transferred to a multiplication register 5 by drive pulses applied to electrodes 9 and 10 to give charge transfer in the direction shown by the arrows. One or more drive pulses applied to the electrodes of the multiplication register 5 are of sufficiently large amplitude to produce high field regions in the register element to cause signal multiplication by impact ionisation. This gives a low noise amplification of the signal charge, the multiplied signal charge being detected at charge detection circuit 6. <IMAGE>
