Patent number: 10122527Abstract: A clock recovery circuit for providing clock recovery from a burst signal that is periodically present and absent in a noisy channel. The recovery circuit includes an outer main tracking second-order phase locked loop (PLL) having an analog phase detector, a digital loop filter, and an analog/digital hybrid numerically controlled oscillator (NCO) that operates so that the clock recovery frequency is “frozen” to its last value from the previous burst and the phase detector is disabled during the gaps between data bursts. The NCO is implemented with an inner loop PLL that operates as a high resolution synthesizer having a low internal control bandwidth that preserves VCO phase noise. The outer main loop achieves a higher control bandwidth through direct tuning of the inner loop VCO with the outer loop tuning signal.Type: GrantFiled: March 23, 2018Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: Northrop Grumman Systems CorporationInventor: Gerald R.

Patent number: 10123425Abstract: A module containing a plurality of active capacitors and a sacrificial capacitor is provided. The active capacitors and sacrificial capacitor are aligned along a horizontal direction so that the side surfaces of their cases are parallel to each other. The particular arrangement of the active capacitors and sacrificial capacitor results in a module configuration where the anode terminations for the active capacitors and an external component of the lead frame for the sacrificial capacitor are coplanar so that the module can be mounted to a circuit board via the anode terminations and the external component of the lead frame in a mechanically and electrically stable manner. Further, the center of gravity of the module in the length and/or width directions can be located at a midpoint of the overall module length and/or width, which enhances the stability of the module when mounted to a circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2018Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: AVX CorporationInventors: Glenn Vaillancourt, Ken Moulton, Scott McCarthy, Jason Laforge

Patent number: 10123469Abstract: A substrate process system which includes a plurality of arranged process machines, and in which a circuit substrate is transported from an upstream process machine to a downstream process machine is provided. One process machine inspects small electronic components, and another process machine 90 inspects large electronic components. The small mounted components are inspected in detail. When the large mounted components are inspected, it is not necessary to inspect the large electronic components in detail to the degree that the small electronic components are inspected. It is possible to reliably inspect the small mounted components even though the inspection process requires a certain length of time, and it is possible to inspect the large components in less detail than the inspection process for the small components. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably perform an inspection process, and to decrease an inspection time at the same time.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2012Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: FUJI CORPORATIONInventor: Mitsuo Imai

Patent number: 10121661Abstract: A method of forming a structure for etch masking that includes forming first dielectric spacers on sidewalls of a plurality of mandrel structures and forming non-mandrel structures in space between adjacent first dielectric spacers. Second dielectric spacers are formed on sidewalls of an etch mask having a window that exposes a connecting portion of a centralized first dielectric spacer. The connecting portion of the centralized first dielectric spacer is removed. The mandrel structures and non-mandrel structures are removed selectively to the first dielectric spacers to provide an etch mask. The connecting portion removed from the centralized first dielectric spacer provides an opening connecting a first trench corresponding to the mandrel structures and a second trench corresponding to the non-mandrel structures.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2017Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Sean D.

Patent number: 10119926Abstract: A heat retention start timing of each sample container is determined based on a room temperature detected by a room temperature sensor, and a starting temperature and an ending temperature of each sample at a time of programmed temperature analysis that are stored in an analysis condition storage section. Since cooling speed of each sample container varies depending on the room temperature, the cooling time (A12, B12, C12, . . . ) of each sample container may be predicted based on the ending temperature of each sample at the time of programmed temperature analysis, the starting temperature of a next sample at the time of the programmed temperature analysis, and the room temperature. By determining the heat retention start timing of each sample container according to the cooling time (A12, B12, C12, . . . ) of each sample container predicted in the above manner, a margin time (A13, B13, C13, . . . ) after the cooling time may be prevented from becoming unnecessarily long.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2013Date of Patent: November 6, 2018Assignee: SHIMADZU CORPORATIONInventor: Akira Aono
