Abstract: A data processing device is provided with an indexed-immediate addressing mode for processing streams of data. An instruction register 900 receives an instruction for execution. Decoding circuitry 913 selects a register specified by a field in an instruction to provide an index value. An immediate field from the instruction is combined with the index value by multiplexor 910 to form an address which can be used to access a data value or to form a target address for a branch instruction. Mux control 915 parses the immediate value to determine how to combine the immediate value and the index value.

Abstract: A data processing device uses a portion of a random access memory as an input buffer for holding a portion of a stream of data which is being processed by a processing unit within the processing device. Various break-point source tasks 801a–n determine discontinuities in the portion of data stored in the input buffer and a sorted list of the addresses of the discontinuities is maintained in breakpoint queue 800. Since the buffer is managed in a FIFO manner, a single breakpoint register 810 is sufficient to monitor addresses as they are provided by an address register 820 for accessing the random access memory. When a breakpoint is detected, the breakpoint queue and the breakpoint register is updated by an update task 802.

Abstract: A composite liquid crystal panel includes a plurality of liquid crystal panels and a picture display surface. It cuts the border of each liquid crystal panel to a width of only one pixel, then bonding the panels together, installing the picture display surface on the liquid crystal panel, and distributing a portion of light from the normal pixels adjoining the border to the pixels corresponding to the border to resolve the gap problem. Light distribution is accomplished by using a pair of mirrors and a pair of reflecting surfaces to reflect the light of the pixels, so that light may be reflected above the pixels on the border and generate light. Then the pixels on the border and the pixels adjoining the border are redefined to form an image dot. Finally, through redistributing the light, the seams on the border may be completely eliminated.

The system and method generally comprises identifying one or more program addresses which require patching, whereby one or more patch addresses are defined; evaluating address bits of the patch addresses and determining index bit positions, whereby address bits occupying the index bit positions define one or more unique tag indices; and storing the index bit positions in a tag programming memory.

Abstract: An automatic sensing wafer blade for picking up wafers that is equipped with a sensor capable of self-diagnosing potential failure conditions of the blade and a method for using the wafer blade are described. The automatic sensing wafer blade is equipped with a V-shaped seal ring on a top surface, and a sensor of either a limit switch or a capacitance sensor for sensing the presence or absence of a wafer on top of the wafer blade. The automatic sensing wafer blade is further capable of self-diagnosing any potential failure conditions of the function of the wafer blade due to contaminating particles, or contaminating liquid on the wafer surface, or due to an aged or malfunctioning seal ring on top of the wafer blade.

Abstract: A data file having a plurality of frames is received, with each frame having a syncword located at a first predefined length from a known data value that is inconsistent with a data pattern of the syncword. A data string including a plurality of potential syncwords is identified. A first portion of the data string in excess of a second predefined length is skipped from syncword verification processing. The second predefined length includes the first predefined length plus the length of the syncword. A second remaining portion of the data string is processed for syncword verification.

The pointer address is compared to the subsequent potential syncword address. The data file (22) is decoded based on the potential syncword following the data string in response to the pointer address corresponding to the subsequent potential syncword address.

Abstract: A data processing device uses a portion of a random access memory as an output buffer for holding a frame of PCM sample data which is being output after being processed by a processing unit within the processing device. Fine grained synchronization between a reference clock and a stream of PCM data frames is provided by transferring only a portion of selected frame of PCM sample data PCM(n+1), in response to a time difference 971. A breakpoint address is determined to delineate the portion of the selected frame that is to be transferred. A sorted list of the addresses of the discontinuities is maintained in breakpoint queue. Since the buffer is managed in a FIFO manner, a single breakpoint register is sufficient to monitor addresses as they are provided by an address register for accessing the random access memory. When a breakpoint is detected, the breakpoint queue and the breakpoint register is updated by an update task 802.
