Abstract: A wafer with a reversed domain is prepared for two piezoelectric single crystal plates 11 and 12 having about the same thickness as each other by using direct bonding without any adhesive. Then, driving electrodes 13 are formed on two principal planes of the wafer with a reversed domain to provide a piezoelectric resonator. A piezoelectric resonator having the structure with a reverses polarization and using odd-order vibration modes vibrating with a fundamental wave has a wavelength of a thickness thereof suppresses scattering of the thickness of the domains with a reversed polarization. In the direct bonding, the axes of the spontaneous polarization of the two piezoelectric single crystal plates are reverse to each other and crystalline axes other than the axes of polarization are shifted intentionally by an angle other than zero. Thus, spurious modes are suppressed in a simple way.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a
picture compressing/reproducing apparatus that is adaptable
to plural kind of CPUs, DSPs, and so forth provided with
small program capacity. 
     A picture compressing means 4 compresses pictures.
Pictures are classified into three types of pictures. They
are an I picture that is intra-frame coded, a P picture
that is forward inter-frame coded, and a B picture that is
forward/backward inter-frame coded. An apparatus
controlling means 1 checks the ID of existing CPU 2 and the
CPU ID of program currently created and determines whether
or not they match. When the determined result is No, the
apparatus controlling means 1 extracts a compressed code of
basic modules and differential modules corresponding to the
existing CPU. With reference to a code table 17, a
decoding means 16 decodes the compressed codes to generate
an optimum program for the existing CPU. The picture
reproducing apparatus performs the similar process to that
of the picture compressing apparatus.

Abstract: In a vertical sawtooth generator (10,14) of a vertical
deflection circuit, a first comparator (19) generates an output
signal when a retrace portion (RETRACE) of a sawtooth signal
(VRAMP) is at a first magnitude (VLOW) to initiate a vertical trace
portion of the sawtooth signal. An amplifier (23) responsive to
the sawtooth signal generates a feedback current (IOUT) at a time
(H. LINE #210, Fig. 2c) that occurs more than one-half of the
length of vertical trace portion after vertical trace is initiated. The
feedback current is coupled to a capacitor (22) to develop a
capacitor voltage (VAGC). The capacitor voltage is applied via a
voltage-to-current converter (21) to an integrating capacitor (14)
to develop in the integrating capacitor the trace portion of the
sawtooth signal.

Abstract: A method for encoding input contour image including a
current contour based on a previous contour, a contour encoded
previously, is provided. In this method a predicted contour
is generated from motion estimating and compensating the
previous contour based on the current contour. By indexing
the contour pixels on the predicted contour and encoding the
indices of the end-points of matched segments, parts where the
predicted and the current contours overlap, encoded major
vertex information is provided. Unmatched segments, parts on
the current contour which are not included on any of the
matched segments, are polygonal approximated to find minor
vertices and relative locations of the minor vertices are
encoded to provide encoded minor vertex information. When
encoding the minor vertices, modes for encoding the number of
minor vertices are selected to minimize the number of bits for
encoding the number of minor vertices. By multiplexing the
encoded major vertex information and the encoded minor vertex
information, the present method supplies encoded contour
information.

Abstract: Single crystal sapphire  (34)  is conventionally employed for mid-wave IR
windows and domes exposed to high aerodynamic heating environments. Single crystal
sapphire  (34) , however, suffers a loss of compressive strength in the c-axis of 95% on
heating from ambient to 800°C. This loss of compressive strength on heating results in
poor thermal shock resistance. Poor thermal shock resistance jeopardizes the reliability
of the windows  (32)  and domes. The process of the present invention strengthens
sapphire  (34)  and improves its resistance to thermal shock by introducing magnesium
(Mg) ions into the crystal lattice of sapphire  (34)  to form a solid solution. The solid
solution increases the strength of the sapphire  (34) . Additionally, a larger increase in
strength results from converting the Mg into second phase precipitates  (40)  comprising
magnesium aluminate spinel. The formation of the second phase particulates  (40) 
results in precipitation-hardening or precipitation-strengthening due to the volume
change on forming the magnesium aluminate spinel. The second phase particulates  (40) 
comprising magnesium aluminate spinel are held to such a small size that the second
phase particulates  (40)  impart increased fracture strength while not significantly
degrading the IR transmission when compared with untreated sapphire  (34) .
Consequently, precipitation-hardening with magnesium aluminate spinel improves the
compressive strength of sapphire  (34)  while retaining high thermal conductivity and IR
transmission.

Abstract: Automatic detection by a port of the type of device
connected by a cable to the port is accomplished by
transmitting a control packet by the device, where the
control packet has a nonstandard format. The port examines
received packets for the nonstandard format. Upon
detection of a packet having the nonstandard format, the
port recognizes that the source device of the packet is of
a predetermined type which transmits control packets of the
nonstandard format. Further, by choosing the nonstandard
packet, the port is assured that the source device is
attached to the port by a cable. That is, by choosing a
nonstandard packet which is not forwarded by a bridge
router, the port is assured that the packet has not been
forwarded from a remote part of the network.

Abstract: The raw digital output signal generated at the transmitter by an ADC is
XOR'd with a sequence of pseudo-random numbers to generate an
encoded output signal. This removes all correlation between the analog
input signal and the encoded output signal. Coherence between the
encoded output signal and the analog input signal is prevented and the
effects of crosstalk to the analog input signal are mitigated. In a first
embodiment of the invention, the sequence of pseudo-random numbers is
a sequence of one-bit pseudo-random numbers that are XOR'd with each
bit of the raw digital output signal. In a second embodiment, the sequence
of pseudo-random numbers is a sequence of N-bit pseudo-random
numbers that are XOR'd with the N-bit words of the digital output signal.
To recreate the original raw digital output signal in the receiver, a second
XOR operation is performed between the encoded output signal and the
sequence of pseudo-random numbers. Alternatively, a pseudo-random
number generator located in each of the transmitter and receiver are
synchronized to generate equal sequences of PRNs that encode the raw
digital output signal and decode the encoded output signal. Intermediate
digital pipelining may be used to add a decoding bit from the pseudo-random-number
generator to the encoded output signal. Such additional
bit may be stored in memory with the encoded output signal to permit later
decoding.
