Abstract: A TDMA system (11) is provided using a programmable, fixed-period frame structure for communication between network terminals (6, 10). All bursts are timed with respect to this programmable periodic frame. Each terminal (6, 10) uses its local clock to generate a transmit frame period and a receive frame period. According to the invention an Acquisition and Synchronization procedure is provided to align the start of transmit frame period and start of receive frame period at each terminal in such a way that if a burst is transmitted by any terminal at offset x after a local start of transmit frame period, then all terminals receive that burst at position y after their local start of receive frame periods, where ¦y-x¦ is less than a small threshold value. In addition, a number of different types of bursts are used for communication between terminals. The various types of bursts are programmable. In other words, the parameters defining the bursts, such as length, frequency, and location within a frame may be dynamically assigned by the network based on monitored network conditions.

Abstract: This invention has as its object to provide an ATM
relay device which attains high-speed, large-capacity
packet relaying by distributing the load on an IP
forwarding unit without having to improve the operation
speed, processing performance, and the like of an
IP forwarding function. This invention has an ATM
switch core (111) for distributing input ATM cells
to corresponding ones of a plurality of output ports
on the basis of their destination information.
A plurality of IP forwarding units (120-1 to 120-n),
which are provided in correspondence with the
respective output ports of the ATM switch core (111)
and have unique forwarding processing functions,
execute predetermined forwarding processes for packets
obtained by reassembling ATM cells input via the
respective output ports. An SAR 121 assigns destination
information that assumes different values in units
of packets to ATM cells, which form each of packets
having an identical address of those processed by the
plurality of IP forwarding units (120-1 to 120-n).
The ATM cells of a packet assigned identical
destination information by the SAR 121 are stored in
a PerVC queuing unit 112 by a predetermined volume, and
are output in the format that stores the ATM cells by
the predetermined volume.

Abstract: In a TV camera main body, a still-image-luminous-flux-decomposing prism is
disposed adjacent to a color-decomposing prism of a TV-image-capturing system,
whereby still images whose aberration is favorably corrected as with TV images are
obtained in a simple and compact configuration. A mechanical shutter is disposed in
an optical path of the still-image-capturing system, so as to prevent image blurring
and smear from occurring due to temporal shifts between field images. A four-block
color-decomposing prism 11A, in which each glass prism has a form identical to a
color-decomposing prism of a dual green type, is constituted by a still-image-capturing
prism 2d, and a TV-image-capturing three-color-decomposing prism
system comprising a prism for blue 2a, a prism for red 2b, and a prism for green 2c.
A mechanical shutter 34 is disposed between the light exit end face 7d of the still-image-capturing
prism 2d and its cover glass 6d.

IPC: H01L21/316
Filed: 1999-02-11
Abstract: A method for forming a semiconductor device having an
isolation trench (14) for separation of element regions
includes the steps of forming a pad oxide film (12) and a silicon
nitride film (13) on a silicon substrate (11), forming an isolation
trench (14) by using the silicon nitride film as a mask, forming
consecutively a thermal oxide film (15), CVD oxide film (16) and
a bias oxide film (17) in the isolation trench (14), removing the
films above a specified level of the silicon substrate (11) to leave
the isolation trench (14) filled with oxide films (15,16 and 17).
The bias oxide film (17) is formed by a high-density plasma CVD
technique. The silicon surface is protected by the CVD oxide film
(16) against the plasma damage during the high-density CVD step,
thereby obtaining excellent characteristics of transistors.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an
air flow rate measuring apparatus of a heat generating
resistor type in which it is possible to adequately take
the advantage of the air flow rate measuring apparatus of a
heat generating resistor type (1) and to obtain a high control
precision when the air flow rate measuring apparatus is
applied to the engine control. 
     A flow rate signal V with a nonlinear characteristic
generated from a flow rate detecting unit 3 provided with a
heat generating resistor 3a, is converted into a signal V1
with a linear characteristic by a linearizing circuit 4.
Then, the flow rate signal is smoothed by a filter circuit
5 to obtain a signal V2 in which measurement error due to a
flow rate ripple is suppressed. Thereafter, the flow rate
signal is again formed into a signal V3 with a nonlinear
characteristic by a nonlinear-form converting circuit 6,
whereby resolution lowering due to analog-to-digital
conversion can be suppressed. 
     According to the above arrangement, it is possible
to prevent the output voltage from being lowered due to the
nonlinear characteristic of the heat generating resistor
and the ripple caused from an engine. Further, the
resolution of the analog-to-digital converter is prevented
from being lowered when the engine control unit is supplied 
with flow rate signal. As a result, it is possible to
obtain a stable output even if the air flow rate stays in a
low rate region such as when the engine is driven in a
region of idling speed.

Abstract: A synchronization circuit (30) includes three flip-flops responsive to a
common clock signal (CLK2). The input to the first flip-flop (32) represents the
least significant bit (LSB) of a counter (31) included within a first clock domain.
The CLK2 signal originates from a second clock domain. The output of the first
flip-flop is provided as input to the second flip-flop (34), and the second flip-flop
output is provided as input to the third flip-flop (36). An exclusive-or (XOR) gate
(38) generates a synchronization signal in response to outputs of the second
and third flip-flops (34-36). The synchronization signal is usable within the
second clock domain and activate for one period of CLK2 subsequent to every
transition occurring on the LSB input. The active state of the synchronization
signal indicates that a predefined set of data inputs is stable and valid. In this
manner, a single unsynchronized input signal, i.e., the LSB input, can be used
to synchronize the data inputs.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a new surface geometry of a
polycrystalline diamond (PCD) cutter whereby large chips are prevented from
forming in front of the cutter. The surface geometry includes recess(es) (20) and/or
raised region(s) (16) that can act as chip breakers and also increase turbulence in the
flow across the face of the cutter and thus increase the heat transfer coefficient
and reduce drag. PCD surface's geometric configuration is formed in the high
temperature/high pressure (HT/HP) process and is therefore integral with the
cutter. This invention thus provides a polycrystalline cutter with improved
cutting capability by preventing chip build-up and enhanced heat transfer
resulting in a cooler cutting edge temperature.

Abstract: A method of removing hot corrosion products from the surface
of a component exposed to corrosive conditions at elevated temperatures, as
is the case with turbine, combustor or augmentor components of gas turbine
engines. The method is particularly suited for the removal of hot corrosion
products from components protected with a diffusion aluminide coating,
either as an environmental coating or as a bond coat for a thermal barrier
coating (TBC). The processing steps of the method include immersing the
component in a heated liquid solution containing acetic acid, and then
agitating the surfaces of the component while the component remains
immersed in the solution. In this manner, hot corrosion products on the
surfaces of the component are removed without damaging or removing the
diffusion aluminide coating. As a result, regions of the component from
which the hot corrosion products were removed can then be repaired by a
suitable aluminizing process.
