Patent TW-418569-B (TW)
Title: Analog to digital converter with encoder circuit and testing method thereof
Inventor: TSUKAMOTO SABUROKU
IPC: H03M1/10
Filed: 1998-03-12
Granted: 2001-01-11
Abstract: A high speed A/D converter includes a series of encoder sections for converting a thermometer code to a gray code and an error signal production section for detecting a babble error in the gray code and generating an error signal indicating such a babble error. An error correction section corrects babble errors in the gray code in response to the error signal. The corrected gray code is then converted to a binary code with a gray code to binary code converter. When the high speed A/D converter is incorporated in a semiconductor device, the A/D converter may be tested using a sampling clock having a phase which varies successively with respect to the input analog signal to sample the analog signal, and then evaluating the corresponding generated digital signal.

Title: Mouseless, optical and position translation type screen pointer control for a computer system
Inventor: GORDON GARY B
IPC: G06F3/033
Filed: 1998-11-13
Granted: 2000-09-01
Abstract: A mouseless, optical and position translation type screen pointer control (1) images a portion of the texture or fingerprint (6) on one of the user's digits (7) which may be a thumb or a finger. Motion of the digit produces motion of the image that is detected by a movement sensor and is translated into corresponding motion of the screen pointer. The digit is placed onto an end (5) of a rod lens (3) that either extends upward amongst the keys: say, proximate the junction of the ""H"", ""J"", ""Y"" and ""U"" keys; or, horizontally outward from the front edge of the keyboard. As the image ""moves"" within the movement sensor a portion of it disappears from the field of view, and is replaced with other image patterns. A sufficiently changed image is maintained as a new current image, which then itself changes, and so on. A comparison between a reference frame (previous image) and the current frame (present image) allows detection of the amount and direction of image motion. These detected amounts corresponds to rotation of a mouse ball, and are sent to the computer's software to be treated as such. Since there is now no mouse the buttons or switches that are part of a regular mouse may be replicated as separate keys (14, 15) on the keyboard. The SPACE bar (13) may be shortened to provided room for these new keys.

Title: System and method for improved program launch time
Inventor: WALSH JAMES EDWARD
IPC: G06F9/445
Filed: 1999-04-14
Granted: 2001-05-01
Abstract: Installing files on a hard disk drive in a manner that improves program launch time. After a build of a program is completed, the program is launched and the disk activity associated with disk-intensive operations is monitored to determine the order in which file portions are read from a disk during program or command launch. This data is used to create a load sequence list, which indicates the order in which various portions of the files are read during launch. The installation disks include the files and the load sequence list. During the installation process, the installation program reads the data from the load sequence list and writes the file portions so they are stored in the order prescribed by the load sequence list in contiguous clusters on the hard disk drive. The computer can then read launch-related data from the disk in the proper order from contiguous disk clusters, which minimizes or eliminates wasted time that would result from disk accesses if the disk heads had to move between noncontiguous clusters in order to read the launch-related data.

Title: Methods and apparatus for performing controlled ultrafiltration during hemodialysis
Inventor: EL SAYYID WALEED MUTASEM
IPC: A61M1/16
Filed: 1999-07-31
Granted: 2001-01-11
Abstract: A preferred embodiment of the disclosed apparatus comprises a hydraulic ""UF loop""comprising first and positive displacement pumps that pump dialysate or an analogous liquid to and from, respectively, a dialysate compartment of a hemodialyzer located within the UF loop. Between each pump and a respective port of the hemodialyzer is a respective flowmeter that determines the flowrate of the respective pump. The hemodialyzer is also connected to a conduit routing a physiological liquid (e.g., blood) extracorporeally from a source (e.g., a patient) through a blood-compartment of the hemodialyzer and back to the source. Depending upon the relative pumping rates of the first and second pumps, an ultrafiltration (UF) condition can be achieved yielding a net flow of liquid either from the dialysate to the physiological liquid or from the dialysate to the physiological liquid. A ""reverse UF"" condition characterized by a net liquid flow from the physiological liquid to the dialysate is especially useful for priming the blood compartment of the hemodialyzer. The flometers perform liquid metering and thus allow ultrafiltration at high accuracy without the need for a separate UF metering pump in the UF loop.
