Patents by Inventor Barry Mansell

Barry Mansell has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Printed multilayer solenoid delay line having at least two sub-sets with different patterns
    Patent number: 8031033
    Abstract: A printed solenoid inductor delay line system comprises discrete delay sections, where the inductor is implemented in the form of a printed, spiraling solenoid, with the solenoid axis in the plane of the multi-layer printed circuit board (PCB).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 29, 2006
    Date of Patent: October 4, 2011
    Assignee: Avocent Corporation
    Inventors: Barry Mansell, Gail E. Mansell, legal representative
  • Pixel skew compensation apparatus and method
    Patent number: 7683896
    Abstract: A two-stage pixel skew compensation circuit for use with digital display monitors. The first stage of the compensation circuit aligns the edges of the pixels received on the color component signal lines of an analog video signal. The second stage of the de-skew compensation circuit realigns the pixels themselves so that no skew exists between the digitized video color components. The digitized video signals drive a digital video monitor.

  • Control system for display panels
    Patent number: 6121950
    Abstract: A control apparatus for an active matrix liquid crystal display device is fabricated with the active matrix as a single integrated SOI circuit. The control apparatus and the active matrix are lifted from a silicon substrate and transferred to a glass substrate as a single piece. The control apparatus comprises a video interface, a column driver, and dual row drivers. The video interface operates the active matrix as a multiple-frequency scanning display device. The polarities of the display pixels are reversed on every frame by a polarity switch coupled to a video signal amplifier. The control apparatus further comprises sensors for generating a gray-scale feedback signal to adjust the gain of the video amplifier. User control of the display is provided by a user interface.
