Abstract: A magnetic head which contacts the magnetic tape (11) comprises a ferromagnetic body (12). A recess (26) is provided in this ferromagnetic body (12). A ferromagnetic core (9) has pole tips (9a,9b) which are located in the recess and which are arranged for contact with the magnetic tape. A non-magnetic material (18,20,21,22) is arranged along each side of the magnetic core pole tips in the recess. Relative hardnesses of the ferromagnetic body, ferromagnetic core pole tips, and non-magnetic material are chosen so that as the tape (11) wears away on contact surfaces of the magnetic core pole tips, non-magnetic material, and ferromagnetic body, the core pole tips (9a,9b) protrude relative to adjacent portions of the ferromagnetic body and the non-magnetic material so that the tape rides on the protruding pole tips of the core. A radius of curvature at the contact surface of the magnetic core pole tips prior to wearing of the pole tips is chosen such that it is smaller than a natural radius of bending of the tape.

Abstract: A system for detecting and controlling gain and phase errors in a direct conversion reciever having a pair of signal channels carrying I and Q baseband signal components which are in quadrature and are a function of a phase angle ϑ. The system operates by generating (101,102,104; 103,106) I′ and Q′ signals which correspond to sin (2ϑ) and cos (2ϑ). These I′ and Q′ signals are then normalized (108,109) with respect to signal amplitude (101,102,105) and filtered (110,111) to produce signals DC I  and DC Q  corresponding to their DC components. The resulting signals DC I  and DC Q  have been discovered to be separately correlated with the gain (g) and phase (p) errors, respectively, and are used in adjusting (114,116,118,115,117,119) the original I and Q baseband signal components I and Q to correct for any such errors existing between them.

Abstract: In a system for controlling for gain and phase errors due to mismatches between signal channels in direct conversion receiver having a pair of signal channels carrying I and Q baseband component signals which are in quadrature, new I′ and Q′ signals are generated (116,117) which may be viewed as analogs of the I and Q baseband components but which are related to twice the phase angle defined by the original I and Q baseboard components signal components. Phase angles ϑ A  and ϑ B  are determined (120,122) based on the original I and Q baseband components signals and the new I′ and Q′ signals. An error signal ϑ E  is then formed (123) from these signals which can be analyzed (124) to determine the gain and phase errors g and p affecting the I and Q baseband components. These components can then be adjusted (101,102,103) to correct for gain and phase errors g and p in order to compensate for hardware mismatches between the signal channels in the receiver.

Abstract: A magnetic head has a magnetic core (23) structured so that soft magnetic thin films (31a, 31b, 31c, 31d) and insulating thin films (33a, 33b, 33c) are stacked alternately. In at least one layer of the soft magnetic thin films (31a, 31b, 31c, 31d), the thickness of the vicinity of a gap portion (25) is made smaller than that of the other portions. According to this structure, it is possible to decrease a magnetic reluctance of the magnetic core (23). Such magnetic core (23) is formed by repeating, to a substrate (27) having a plurality of grooves (35) formed thereon, the step of forming a thin film by using self-shadowing effects of a peak portion of the groove (35) and the step of applying an anisotropic etching process.

Abstract: A memory integrated circuit comprises an array of memory cells each including a latch circuit and a pair of P-channel access transistors. A word line for each row of memory cells is driven by a word driver circuit including an emitter follower at the output stage thereof. The word line is selected by a low-state thereof to turn on the P-channel access transistor, whereby the maximum gate-source voltage of the P-channel access transistor is as high as the supply voltage irrespective of the potential of signal node of the latch circuit. Hence, a higher-speed operation of the memory integrated circuit can be obtained. Moreover, since a word line is selected by a low-state thereof, current flowing in unselected NTL word driver circuits can be reduced. Furthermore, since cutoff is not effected until the potential of signal node becomes equal to the potential of the high-potential voltage source, writing operation can be effected at a high speed so that probability of an α-ray error can be reduced.

Abstract: An organic material is used as the protective film in the ink ejecting printer head with the surface roughness Ra of the protective film is set to be no greater than 3. Accordingly, the segregation of ink components is suppressed to ensure a smooth flow of ink. As a result, the variations in the volume of the ink droplets ejected is reduced and the ejecting stability is improved. Therefore, the ink ejecting printer head having such a protective film that is excellent in protection also improves the stability of the ejected ink droplets and can be manufactured at a low cost.

Abstract: In order to display a video signal having an aspect ratio of 4 to 3 on a video display screen having a 16 to 9 aspect ratio a nonlinear vertical deflection signal is used to compress the video image along the top and bottom edges of the 16 to 9 aspect ratio screen. The video image is compressed only along the top and bottom edges of the screen because it has been found that motion of the point of view of the viewer relative to the displayed image is generally horizontal but is infrequently vertical. One approach to providing the non-linear vertical deflection waveform is to detect whether the input video signal for display on a 16 to 9 aspect ratio screen is a 4 to 3 aspect ratio signal and, if so, to read out special, non-linear data from a memory. This special waveform data is used to generate the non-linear vertical deflection waveform. If the input video signal is detected to be a 16 to 9 aspect ratio signal, standard data is read out from the memory to be used to generate the appropriate linear vertical deflection waveform.

Abstract: Apparatus and an accompanying method for establishing deadlock-free routing in a large bi-directional multi-stage inter-connected cross-point based packet switch, particularly, though not exclusively, that employed within a high speed packet network of a massively parallel processing system (400). Specifically, in selecting routes for inclusion within route tables (320, 360, 380) contained within the system, the entire network is effectively partitioned such that certain routes would be prohibited in order to isolate packet traffic that would flow solely between nodes in one partition, e.g. system half (503), of the system from packet traffic that would flow between nodes in the other partition, e.g. another system half (507). In that regard, to pick routes for packets that are to transit between nodes situated in a common partition of the system, those routes that contain a path(s) (524, 544) passing through the other system partition would be prohibited. No such route prohibition would occur in selecting a route that is to carry a packet between nodes in multiple system partitions, e.g. between different halves of the system.

Abstract: A current mode bus driver couples input digital signals to a bus (L+,L-) which is normally biased with a voltage difference representing one binary type. The current mode bus driver responds to input digital signals of the other binary type by connecting a current source (503,504,508) to one lead (L+) of the bus and a current sink (505,507,509) to the other lead (L-) of the bus, thereby driving the bus to a voltage difference which represents the other binary type. In response to input digital signals of the first-mentioned binary type, the bus driver isolates the current source and current sink from the bus and connects the current source directly to the current sink. The selective switching is performed by n-channel MOSFETs (510-513) which are driven by the input digital signals (CBH,CBL,COH,COL) through unique buffer driver circuits employing a CMOS inverter, an n-channel MOSFET and an NPN transistor. A combination of MOSFETs and NPN transistors provide a current source (503,504,508) and sink (505,507,509) that permit operation of the bus at very low voltage levels.
