  • Patent number: 6816828
    Abstract: In a logic simulation method, one of an algorithm level simulation and a register transfer level simulation is executed. The algorithm level simulation corresponds to an algorithm level description and the register transfer level simulation corresponds to a register transfer level description. The simulation is switched from one of the algorithm level simulation and the register transfer level simulation into the other in response to a switching instruction using a relation between states of the algorithm level description and states of the register transfer level description. The algorithm level description is associated with arithmetic and logic algorithm and not associated with logic circuits. The register transfer level description is associated with logic circuits.

  • Patent number: 6377909
    Abstract: When a logic synthesis of verified logic circuits is executed by a logic synthesis section, respective input variables, main terms, a minimum logical-OR form, and a cover condition of a logical expression are retained as reusable elements. In an optimization of a program code executed by a dedicated compiler, the program code is optimized by using the reusable elements. Thus, the processing time for the optimization of the program code can be shortened, and also, the amount of memory being used can be reduced.

  • Patent number: 6115009
    Abstract: A display device using a video signal counter system in its automatic positioning and centering circuit. The display device receives a video signal (e.g., from a host computer) including red, green, blue (RGB) color signals and synchronization signals. The present invention advantageously utilizes a video signal counter circuit which is located proximate to, and on the same integrated circuit PC board as, the video receiver circuit of the display device to increase the accuracy of automatic centering and sizing computations. The video signal counter circuit compares horizontal and vertical synchronization signals to the start of the picture edge as determined by the RGB signals. The video signal counter circuit communicates over a transmission line (e.g., serial line) to a processor unit located on another integrated circuit PC board.

  • Patent number: 5892544
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a beam current control system for detecting and controlling a beam current generated by a cathode ray tube. The system comprises a video processing circuit that receives a first signal, and which generates a second signal that includes a video signal and a synchronization signal, which is provided to the cathode ray tube. The cathode ray tube generates a beam current corresponding to the second signal, where the beam current has a video signal portion and a synchronization signal portion. A storage element coupled between the video processing circuit and the cathode ray tube clamps the second signal at a first predetermined level, and stores an electrical charge corresponding to the video signal portion of the beam current during a first time interval.

  • Patent number: 5614792
    Abstract: A dynamic focus circuit used in a display device having a cathode ray tube and adapted for controlling convergence of an electron beam of the cathode ray tube. In the dynamic focus circuit, a horizontal deflection circuit generates a saw-tooth-wave current and a flyback transformer generates a high voltage for accelerating an electron beam. An orthogonal transformer receives a signal corresponding to the saw-tooth-wave current through a primary winding via the flyback transformer while receiving a control signal of a control circuit through a control winding and generates a dynamic focus voltage through a secondary winding. A capacitor supplies the dynamic focus voltage to a cathode ray tube. Thus, it is possible to produce a device of compact structure and to generate a satisfactory dynamic focus voltage.

  • Patent number: 4909295
    Abstract: Disclosed is a vehicle tire structure in which a tubeless pneumatic tire is fitted over a wheel, characterized in that: at least a pair of walls project in substantially radial direction from an outer circumferential surface of the wheel into an annular chamber defined between the tire and the wheel. These walls prevents the generation of standing waves or the air column resonace inside the tire and contribute to the overall reduction of the road noise of the vehicle. The proximal ends of the walls may be either bonded to an annular member which surrounds the wheel or pivoted to a similar annular member and biased into radial or upright positions by a spring member, in such a manner as not to interfere with the replacement of the tire. Alternatively, the walls may consist of inflatable bags which may be inflated into upright positions and deflated into flat positions.

  • Patent number: 4896921
    Abstract: The wheel of the present invention reduces road noise without using a special tire. The wheel includes a wheel body and a silencing chamber formed around the wheel body. The silencing chamber communicates with an air chamber in the tire via communication port. The phase difference between a compressional wave in the air chamber and a compressional wave returned to the air chamber from the communication port cause attenuation of the road noise.
