Title: System and method improving  fault isolation and diagnosis in computers
Inventor: WILLIAMS EMRYS
IPC: G06F11/22
Filed: 2000-09-26
Granted: 2003-05-21
Abstract: A system and method for improving the isolation and diagnosis of hardware faults in a computing system wherein means are provided for indicating whether unusable data has previously triggered diagnosis of the hardware fault that caused the data to be unusable. If diagnosis has not been performed, the flag is not set. If diagnosis has already been performed, the flag is set. One embodiment comprises an interface which is used to convey data from one subsystem to another. When the interface receives data from the first subsystem, the data is examined to determine whether it contains an uncorrectable error (including missing data.) If the data contains an uncorrectable error, the interface examines the flag corresponding to the data to determine whether hardware fault diagnosis has already been initiated. If diagnosis has already been initiated, the data is passed to the second subsystem without initiating further diagnosis. If diagnosis has not been initiated, the interface initiates diagnosis and sets the flag to indicate that diagnosis has already been initiated. The data and corresponding flag are then passed to the second subsystem. If the data contains an uncorrectable error, data error handling procedures will be performed by the subsystem that requested the data, regardless of the value of the corresponding flag.

Abstract: A karaoke device with built-in microphone includes a main body microphone, and converts an audio signal from the microphone into audio data by an A/D converter, and writes the audio data into a ring buffer by mixing with the data already stored in the ring buffer. If an echo mode is set, a delay time constant (CD) corresponding to the echo mode is determined, and on the basis thereof, a size of the ring buffer is set. The data is read from the ring buffer, and is inputted in a sound channel. If a voice effect mode is set, a reproduction frequency constant (CF) corresponding to the voice effect mode is determined, and based thereon, an inclement value of a read pointer of the ring buffer is determined, and then, the data is read from an address indicated by the read pointer. When the read pointer reaches the delay time constant, the relevant constant is subtracted from the read pointer value. Furthermore, it becomes possible to simultaneously use a microphone of an additional microphone and the main body microphone by inserting a microphone plug of the additional microphone into a microphone jack of the karaoke device. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Multiple frequency band antennas having first and second conductive branches are provided for use within wireless communications devices, such as radiotelephones. First and second conductive branches are in adjacent, spaced-apart relationship. First and second signal feeds extend from the first conductive branch and terminate at respective first and second switches. Third and fourth signal feeds extend from the second conductive branch and terminate at respective third and fourth switches. The first and second conductive branches can jointly radiate as a dipole antenna in a first frequency band when the first and fourth switches are open, and when the second and third switches electrically connect the second and third feeds to a first receiver/transmitter. Antenna structure may be changed by reconfiguring the various switches. For example, the first and second conductive branches may radiate separately as respective inverted-F antennas, or may radiate independently as monopole antennas.
