Title: A system for DC restoration of serially transmitted binary signals.
Inventor: WEBSTER STEPHEN
IPC: H03K5/007
Filed: 1994-01-21
Abstract: A DC restorer device for restoring the DC and non-zero average components of a serially transmitted binary signal which has been AC coupled. The device comprises an input port for receiving the binary signal, a clamping circuit, a feedback network, a summing node, and an output port. The input port is connected to a capacitor for AC coupling the binary signal to the summing node. The clamping circuit is also connected to the summing node. The feedback network includes an input and an output which are also connected to the summing node. The clamping circuit clamps the positive and negative peaks of the AC coupled binary signal which exceed a predetermined range. The feedback network latches the AC coupled binary signal and produces a feedback current. For a binary signal which is within the predetermined range, the clamping circuit exhibits a very high input impedance, thereby causing the feedback current to charge the coupling capacitor. The coupling capacitor produces a voltage which is added to the AC coupled binary signal at the summing node. The output port which is part of the feedback network takes the restored AC coupled binary signal and converts it to digital logic levels using a comparator. In another embodiment, the clamping circuit includes a current sensor for producing an amplitude signal which is indicative of the amplitude of the AC coupled binary signal. The amplitude signal is fed to an automatic gain controller which produces a gain control voltage for controlling the operation of a high frequency equalizer. The second embodiment of the present invention provides a DC restorer which can be merged with an automatic gain controller to provide an integrated cable equalizer in which the DC restorer and high frequency equalizer co-operate to produce a matched and high performance cable equalizer. <IMAGE>

by a head, the read analog signal is processed by an
AGC circuit and a low pass filter, the processed analog
signal is converted into a digital signal by an A/D
converter (6), and the digital signal is demodulated by
a demodulator. A zero-level setting circuit for the
A/D converter comprises: a reference voltage generator

detector; and an equalizer (50) for equalizing the
zero-level of the A/D converter to the reference
voltage in accordance with an output signal from the
zero-level error accumulator. As a result, the
conversion accuracy of the A/D converter is improved

Abstract: A contoured golf club face provides increased
structural integrity for a given weight and size is
described and shown along with a method for its design.
The contoured golf club face includes a vertical
stiffening region, a tapered horizontal stiffening
region, four similar contoured quadrants of increasingly
thinning material toward the center of each quadrant,
and thickening regions at face/sole and face/crown
intersection regions. The thicknesses of adjoining
regions are gradually blended to provide a smooth
contoured surface. The present golf club face is light
weight, is structurally resistant to impact deformation,
is resistant to initial and long-term failure, has its
mass center located at its sweet spot, exhibits inertial
axes which are aligned with vertical and horizontal axes
(i.e. primary club force directions: ball impact force
and club centrifugal force directions), and produces
acoustical tones. A club incorporating the present
contoured golf club face may be provide a certain first
acoustical sound when used to hit a ball with a certain
first specific area of the face (e.g. the sweet spot or
sweet spot region) and to provide a different second
acoustical sound when used to hit a ball with an area of
the face other than that first area (e.g. other than the
sweet spot or sweet spot region). Thus, the present
invention may be used to provide an educational tool for
use in teaching and/or learning to consistently impact a
ball on the optimal region of the club face.
