Abstract: A process for manufacturing an integrated circuit having both field effect and bipolar transistors provides, in one embodiment, a polycide film over the gate and field oxides on the surface of the semiconductor substrate. The process then patterns the polycide film such that a protective structure of gate material is formed on top of the base region of the bipolar transistor while the gate of the field effect transistor is formed, in a single process step. The channel region of the field effect transistor is defined by the gate, which also serves as a mask for etching away the gate oxide from the source and drain regions of the filed effect transistor. Ionic species are implanted to form the source and drain of the field effect transistor and the collector contact of the bipolar transistor. The protective structure of gate material in the active region of the bipolar transistor is removed just before the base region is implanted with ionic species to form the base of the bipolar transistor. A polysilicon or polycide film provides the emitter of the bipolar transistor.

Inventor: WATANABE SHIGEKI
IPC: H04J14/02
Filed: 1991-09-13
Abstract: At a transmitting end, transmission signals corresponding to more than one channel are allocated different microwave frequencies and carriers of the microwave frequencies are modulated with the transmission signals in modulators. A filter (32-1 to 32-k) is placed in the preceding or succeeding stage of a respective modulator (31-1 to 31-k) to band-limit a corresponding transmission signal before or after modulation. The band-limited and modulated transmission signals are combined to produce a microwave frequency-division multiplexed signal. The multiplexed signal modulates an optical frequency modulator (33) to produce an optical modulated signal. The optical modulated signal is transmitted to the receiving end. At the receiving end, the optical signal transmitted from the transmitting end is detected and converted to an electrical signal. The channel components are extracted from the electrical signal by bandpass filters (36-1 to 36-k) and then demodulated. In the receiver, the frequency modulated optical signal is converted into an intensity modulated signal.

Title: Method and apparatus for processing time domain cross-talk information
Inventor: BOTTMAN JEFFREY S
IPC: G01R31/08
Filed: 1996-11-13
Abstract: A pulse-based LAN cable test instrument that processes time-domain cross-talk measurement information in order to troubleshoot and locate sources of cross-talk in a LAN cable system is provided. A pulse-response time record between a pair of transmission lines of the LAN cable system is first acquired. A series of steps to process the time-domain pulse response data in the time record are then performed to enhance the ability of the user to locate and troubleshoot the primary contributors to NEXT along any point of the LAN cable system. The pulse response data are first normalized as a function of distance from the LAN cable test instrument in order to compensate for losses along the LAN cable. Next, the pulse response data are integrated over the time record and the absolute value of the pulse response data is calculated to more clearly show the individual sources of cross-talk within the overall LAN cable pulse response. Finally, the pulse response data are scaled such that the areas of the LAN cable system causing a failing NEXT indication rise above a limit level on the graph to provide a fast visual determination of the sources of cross-talk for troubleshooting purposes. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Eight storage battery cells 11 1  to 11 8  making up a storage battery
cell group 2 can be connected selectively to a voltage-correcting
storage battery 12 through nine cell change-over switches 13 1  to 13 9 ,
four polarity-inverting switches 14 1  to 14 4  and a current-limiting
resistor 15. When the voltages of two or more of the storage battery
cells 11 1  to 11 8  are different, the voltages of each of the storage battery
cells 11 1  to 11 8  can be equalized by then transferring the charge from
a storage battery cell high in voltage to the voltage-correcting storage
battery 12 and by transferring the charge of that voltage-correcting
storage battery 12 to a storage battery cell low in voltage. As a result,
the voltage difference due to the performance variations among the
individual storage battery cells 11 1  to 11 8  can be obviated thereby to
increase the working voltage range of the storage battery cell group
2 as a whole.

Abstract: Switched-mode power supplies having a switching
transistor (TP21), a driver stage (IP01) and an isolating
transformer (TR1) which contains a primary winding (W1)
and a secondary winding (W2), and in which a regulating
signal is transmitted, for example via an optocoupler,
from the secondary side to the primary side are known.
The object of the present invention is to reduce the
component complexity of these switched-mode power
supplies, in particular for the transmission of this
regulation information. 
     The invention uses a secondary winding (W2) and
four diodes (DS01, DS02, DS10, DS10) in order to produce
two rectified positive voltages (US1, US2), one of which
(US1) can be regulated. A connection of the unregulated
voltage (US2) has connected to it a variable zener diode
(IS10) as an error amplifier for transmitting a
regulating signal to the primary side. 
     The driver stage (IP01) provides a pulse-width-modulated
square-wave signal for driving the switching
transistor (TP21) which is arranged at high potential
between the operating voltage (UB1) on the input side and
the primary winding (W1). Arranged between the driver
stage (IP01) and the control electrode of the switching
transistor (TP21) there is a differentiating element
(RP20, CP20) which produces positive and negative
switching voltages for controlling the switching
transistor (TP21). The base potential of the switching
transistor (TP21) is connected via a resistor (RP21) to
the operating voltage potential (UB1). 
     The switched-mode power supply has very high
efficiency, is very compact and is suitable, in
particular, for use as a separate standby switched-mode
power supply in entertainment electronic equipment.

Abstract: In a satellite communication system, a user terminal
(11) seeks response from a selected earth station (7A-E)
for a request for service based analysing the signal
quality of broadcasts from earth stations (7A-E).
Whichever earth station (7A-E) responds calculates
which earth station (7A-E) can best meet the request
for service. If it is another earth station (7A-E), the
user terminal (11) is intructed to redirect the request
for service thereto and, once in contact, the user
terminal (11) addresses all new requests directly
thereto, until the best earth station (7A-E) calculates
that there is a better earth station (7A-E), and
instructs the user terminal (11) to address all future
requests for service thereto. This continues ad
infinitum, unless the best earth station (7A-E) is
inaccessible for the request for service, in which case
the user terminal (11) once again reverts to selecting
an earth station (7A-E) based on signal quality
analysis, any failed requests for service being
intimated and ignored by the addressed earth station
(7A-E) in any future calculation of the best earth
station (7A-E).
