Patent EP-1130826-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KNOX WAYNE HARVEY
IPC: H04B10/29
Filed: 2001-03-02
Abstract: A broad band optical amplifier (212) includes at least one free space wavelength
demultiplexer/multiplexer (214) and optical gain means (222). The free space
demultiplexer/multiplexer (214) receives a multiplexed signal ( m - λ ) and spatially separates it into
a plurality of spectral components (λ-i) each having a unique peak wavelength. The optical gain
means (222) has a plurality of wavelength-selective gain regions (224) that are capable of
imparting gain to (i.e., amplifying) an optical signal over a particular narrow range of
wavelengths. The operational range (i.e., the particular narrow range of wavelengths) of each
gain region (224) is unique. The spatially-separated spectral components are individually
delivered to specific gain regions by the demultiplexer/multiplexer as a function of the peak
wavelength of the spectral component and the operative range of the gain region.

Inventor: YASUMURA MASAYUKI
IPC: H02M3/335
Filed: 2001-08-02
Abstract: In making constant a direct-current output voltage
obtained by rectifying an alternating voltage generated
in a secondary winding of an isolating converter
transformer PIT, an active clamp circuit formed with an
auxiliary switching device, a clamp capacitor, and a
clamp diode is connected in parallel with a parallel
resonant capacitor to be supplied with the alternating
voltage, instead of using a three-terminal regulator and
a chopper regulator, which step down and make constant
the direct-current output voltage. A control circuit
effects PWM control of the auxiliary switching device of
the active clamp circuit and thereby equivalently changes
capacitance of the parallel resonant capacitor. Thus, the
direct-current output voltage is made constant, and power
loss caused in making the direct-current output voltage
constant is reduced.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention can enable a control
device to make an information device operate properly even if there
are a plurality of portions to be controlled in the information
device and a plurality of control devices. When the control device
10 selects the controlled-portion which it wants to control from
controlled-portion selection means provided by the information
device 1 thereto, the selected information and identification
information on the control device 10 having selected the controlled-portion
are transmitted to the information device 1; the information
device 1 having received the both information makes identification
information on the selected controlled-portion correspond to the
identification information on the control device 10 and preserves
the both identification information in a RAM 1 (5) as a control
correspondence table. Each time the control device 10 selects the
controlled-portion, the selection, the transmission, and the
preservation are repeatedly performed. When the information device
1 receives a control request from the control device 10, the
information device 1 controls, by referring to the control
correspondence table which is preserved, the controlled-portion
corresponding to the identification information on an issuer of the
control request.

Abstract: A method of broadband receiver amplitude/phase normalization uses
internal normalization sources ― a thermally compensated noise source and
a pseudo random sequence generator. A calibrated signal is applied to the
input of the broadband receiver and processed by a digital signal processor
to generate a gain versus frequency table. Then the internal noise source is
applied to the input of the broadband receiver and process by a digital signal
processor to generate a noise level versus frequency table. Finally the
internal pseudo random sequence generator applies a pseudo random
sequence waveform to the input of the broadband receiver, the pseudo
random sequence waveform being process by the digital signal processor to
generate equalization filter coefficients for the IF stages.

Abstract: A chunk format for a large-scale, high data throughput router includes a preamble that
allows each individual chunk to have clock and data recovery performed before the chunk
data is retrieved. The format includes a chunk header that contains information specific to the
entire chunk. A chunk according to the present format can contain multiple packet segments,
with each segment having its own packet header for packet-specific information. The format
provides for a scrambler seed which allows scrambling the data to achieve a favorable zero
and one balance as well as minimal run lengths. There can be a random choice of available
scrambler seeds for any particular chunk to avoid malicious forcing of zero and one patterns
or run lengths of bit zeroes and ones. There are a chunk cyclical redundancy check (CRC) as
well as forward error correction (FEC) bytes to detect and/or correct any errors and also to
insure a high degree of data and control integrity. Advantageously, a framing symbol
inserted into the chunk format itself allows the receiving circuitry to identify or locate a
particular chunk format. "Break Bytes" and "Make Bytes" fields located at the beginning of a
chunk preamble precondition an optical receiver to a proper state before the actual chunk
arrives at the receiver.

Abstract: A circuit board (27) on an ink cartridge (9) has contact pads which
are electrically conducted to a semiconductor storage element (65)
mounted on the circuit board. Connector terminals on an ink
jet recording apparatus are brought into relative slide contact
with a surface of this circuit board, and electrically connected
to the contact pads. When the connector terminals come in contact
with the contact pads, the dust adhering to the connector terminals (70)
is wiped and removed by step portions that are constituted by
no-resist-film formation parts and that are adjacent to the contact
pads. Consequently, the reliability of the electrical contact
between the connector terminals and the contact pads is ensured.
