Filed: 1996-05-20
Abstract: In a color input scanner for deriving digital signals from a full-color original image, a sensor bar having three parallel arrays of photosensors, each array being sensitive to a different primary color, is moved relative to the original image in a scan direction. With each scan cycle, the exposure of the photosensors in each array is precisely timed so that the optical "center of gravity" for each exposed area in the original image is superimposed for all of the primary color photosensors.

Abstract: A system is provided to allow for automatic configuration of print engine scheduling software in accordance with descriptions of print engine modules. Each print engine module contains a description of itself in a form of module capabilities. When a print engine is formed from such modules, the system composes module capabilities to capabilities of a complete print engine. More particularly, inputs and outputs of capabilities are unified and constraints on their attributes are propagated. This enables derivation of potential outputs of the print engine. The resultant print engine capabilities are directly usable to configure scheduling software. Optionally, the resulting print engine capabilities may be compiled further.

Abstract: Digital signal receiver for recording a plurality of program streams at the same time period with a single storage medium. The transport streams from the tuners T11 through T1n are converted into the program streams at the format conversion circuits F11 through F1n, then converted into the data forms corresponding to the data bus 5 in the data bus interfaces IF11 through IF1n, so as to output them to the data bus 5. Therefore, the data having a plurality of programs at the same time are transmitted on the data bus 5 in a multiplexed state. The data bus interface circuit 6 restores the data from the data bus 5 into the original data and supplies it to the storage medium 7. Accordingly, the storage medium 7 is able to record the program streams of a plurality of programs at the same time period.

Abstract: In a traceback unit for an M-step Viterbi decoder for a convolutionally encoded data
stream, each of the traceback stages has a group of K input wires representing K
possible candidate states. A bank of K multiplexers selects one of 2 M  of the input
wires according to M bits of traceback data. The K multiplexer outputs feed a
succeeding traceback stage. M groups of K wires carry the traceback data, with each
wire being connected to a selection line of each multiplexer. At the output of the
traceback unit an identification circuit identifies a subgroup of the K possibilities
which has a maximum number of candidate states remaining therein. The arrangement
obviates the need for retiming between every traceback stage.

Title: Control device
Inventor: FLOCK HORST
IPC: H02P7/29
Filed: 1998-01-27
Abstract: The device includes a control circuit which generates a PWM signal having successive switch on and switch off intervals according to a target value. An FET end stage switch switches a supply current for the load flowing from a supply voltage terminal to the output, according to the switching intervals. The device also has a switch on stage and a switch off stage for switching a gate voltage of the end stage switch on and off. The gate voltage supply (GSV) has a pump charge circuit with a diode (D2) between a positive terminal (PLA) and a middle tap point (MA) in the conducting direction, and a capacitor (C1) between the middle point and a negative terminal. The middle point is connected to the switch on stage. A potential at the negative terminal changes according to a potential at the output (A) and thus a current flowing through the diode during the switch off interval charges the capacitor. During the whole switch on interval the diode is blocked and the capacitor supplies a gate supply voltage to the middle point. The gate voltage corresponds at least to a voltage at the supply side terminal of the end stage switch.
