Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de balayage (10) et un procédé permettant de balayer un champ de vision désiré compris dans un champ de regard maximisé, à une vitesse constante, sans inverser la direction balayage autour d'un premier axe (38). Le système comprend un miroir (20) effectuant une rotation autour du premier axe (38). Le miroir (20) est supporté aux fins de rotation autour d'un axe de projection symétrique (40) qui est perpendiculaire au premier axe (38). Une rotation du miroir (20) autour du premier axe (38) est divisée en une période de balayage pendant laquelle le champ de vision est balayé par le miroir (20) et en une période de projection symétrique pendant laquelle le miroir (20) effectue une rotation autour de l'axe de projection symétrique (40). Le miroir (20) est monté à la Cadran, de manière à obtenir une rotation indépendante autour d'un second axe (24) qui est parallèle au premier axe (38). Une rotation du miroir (20) autour du second axe (24) permet un réglage de l'orientation du miroir, de manière qu'à la fin de la période de balayage, le miroir (20) soit en face de l'extrémité du champ de vision et qu'à la fin de la période de projection symétrique, le miroir (20) soit en face du début du champ de vision.

Abstract: A circuit and method for turning-on and turning-off elements of  an field emission display device to protect against emitter electrode(60) and gate electrode(50) degradation. The circuit(910) includes control logic(916) having a sequencer which in one embodiment can be realized using a state machine. Upon power-on, the control logic sends an enable signal to a high voltage power supply (912) that supplies voltage to the anode electrode (914). At this time a low voltage power supply (918) and driving circuitry (920)are disabled. Upon receiving a confirmation signal from the high voltage power supply, the control logic enables the low voltage power supply which supplies voltage to the driving circuitry (920). Upon receiving a confirmation signal from the low voltage power supply (918), or optionally after expiration of a predetermined time period, the control logic (916) then enables the driving circuitry (920) which drives the gate electrodes (50) and the emitter electrodes (60) which make up the rows and columns of the FED device. Upon power down, the control logic (916) first disables the low voltage power supply (918), then the high voltage power supply (912).

Title: Optical multiplexer and demultiplexer
Inventor: JENKINS RICHARD M
IPC: G02B6/12
Filed: 2002-10-08
Abstract: An optical multiplexer and demultiplexer (mux-demux) ( 100 ) comprises a multimode waveguide ( 126 ) which communicates with first ( 122 ) and second ( 124 ) coupling waveguides. Multiplexed optical radiation comprising individual wavelength channels of appropriate wavelength introduced into the input waveguide is demultiplexed by means of modal dispersion and in-ter-modal interference with the multimode waveguide. The mux-demux consists of merely of waveguides and is therefore simple to fabricate and integrate with other components in integrated optical systems, and is capable of resolving channels having a small (~1 nm) wavelength spacing. The mux-demux may be used without modification as a demultiplexer and remains of simple construction when scaled up to operate with many channels.

Abstract: A method of converting m-bit information words to a runlength constrained modulated signal is described. The available code words are distributed over at least one group (G1) of a first type and at least one group (G2) of a second type. The delivery of a code word belonging to the group of the first or second type establishes a coding state of the first type (S1) or one of a number r of coding states (S2, S3) of the second type depending on the current information word. For each information word a subset of code words is available, which subset has at leastone disjunct code word for each of the r coding states. The selection from the subset of the code word to be delivered is based the coding state, on dynamically verifying the runlength constraint for the sequence of code words, and on an additional criterion, like the low frequency content of the modulated signal.
