Abstract: An MR transducer (70) is disclosed having passive end regions (71) separated by a central active region (77) in which an MR layer (81) is formed over substantially only the central active region and in which a magnetic bias layer (75,79) is formed in each passive end region. In one embodiment, each of the magnetic bias layers includes a layer of ferromagnetic material (79) and a layer of antiferromagnetic material (75) overlaying and in contact with the ferromagnetic layer to provide an exchange-coupled magnetic bias field. Alternatively a hard magnetic material is used to form the biasing layer. Each of the magnetic bias layers form an abutting junction (87) having magnetic and electrical continuity with the MR layer to produce a stable longitudinal magnetic bias field in the transducer, even when the length of the active region is small to accommodate small track widths.

Abstract: An ultrasonic stand-off gauge for use in measuring the instantaneous stand-off distance between the drill stem and the borehole wall (24) while drilling. A primary transducer (40) mounted on the drill collar (26) sends and receives ultrasonic pulses (34,38) between the drill collar and the borehole wall. A second, reference transducer (46) mounted on the pressure barrel (44) within the drill collar measures the sound speed of the drilling fluid (36). The drilling fluid flows through a conduit (28) within the drill collar, where the reference transducer transmits a pulse (52) through the drilling fluid in the conduit. The pulse from the reference transducer is reflected off an internal reflector (50) mounted on the internal surface of the drill collar. Since the distance between the reference transducer and the reflector is known and constant, the sound speed of the drilling fluid is determined accurately. Electronic circuitry (42,48,60) uses the sound speed measurement of the drilling fluid as determined by the reference transducer to calculate accurate values of stand-off distance. The electronic circuitry also compensates for the variations of pressure, temperature and other characteristics of the drilling fluid, as well as for variances in the stand-off distance.

Abstract: A laser beam from an excimer laser is split into three beams along a first plane by a pair of prisms and the three beams are caused to intersect each other at the position of the object side focal point of a first cylindrical lens and be incident upon the first cylindrical lens. The three beams are respectively focused independently from each other by the first cylindrical lens. The above focused three beams are then focused along a second plane perpendicular to the first plane by a second cylindrical lens; then, the three beams are caused to superimpose each other on a mask and at the same time are brought to a defocus along said first plane and into focus again along said second plane by an anamorphic optical system containing a third cylindrical lens and a lens having a rotation symmetry, thereby a line-like illumination area extended in the first direction is formed on the mask. The linear illumination area and an area containing a pattern of a series of openings arranged in said first direction or a rectangular pattern extended in said first direction are caused to coincide on the mask to efficiently illuminate the pattern. An image of the illuminated pattern is projected onto a workpiece for an orifice plate by a projection lens system to process the workpiece in accordance with the pattern.

Abstract: A multi-channel system (31) which monitors and identifies faults experienced by elements of the system is provided in accordance with the present invention. The multi-channel system comprises a plurality of line replaceable units (30 or 38) and independent control channels (40, 42 and 44) coupled to a global bus (34). The control channels and the line replaceable units are coupled to the global bus such that each computer channel and each line replaceable unit is a transmitter that transmits messages via the global bus. Each channel contains a plurality of lanes (46, 48 and 50) coupled by a private bus (56), wherein each lane comprises a power supply (52), a processor (54) and an interface (60) to the global bus. However, only one lane of each channel, i.e., the command lane, may transmit messages via the global bus. The processor of each lane of each channel generates a channel majority opinion for each transmitter connected to the global bus that indicates whether a majority of the channels have detected a fault in the transmitter. To determine the channel majority opinion, the processor for each lane of the channel must first generate a lane majority opinion of the channel that indicates whether a majority of the lanes of the channel have detected a fault in the transmitter communicating via the global bus. The command lane of each channel then transmits the lane majority opinion of the channel to each of the other channels via the global bus such that each lane of each channel receives the lane majority opinion generated by the command lane of each of the other channels. The processor of each lane of the channel then qualifies the lane majority opinion of each channel to ensure that the fault detected is not due to a fault in the channel whose command lane sent the lane majority opinion. The processor of each lane then generates a final lane majority opinion of each channel indicating whether a majority of the lanes of the channel have continued to detect the fault in the transmitter after the lane majority opinions of each channel have been qualified. Finally, the processor of each lane of the channel generates the channel majority opinion by determining if a majority of the channels have persistently generated a final majority opinion indicating that the transmitter is experiencing a fault. In other embodiments of the invention, the channel majority opinion is further processed by the processor of each lane of each channel to identify the type of fault the transmitter is experiencing, i.e., whether the fault is intermittent or constant, to identify faults in the global bus and to identify faults within the channels.
