Abstract: A maintenance system for spray head includes an ink cavity of the spray head communication with the external environment through spray holes. The ink cavity of the spray head is connected with a first accommodating cavity of a first regulating device through a pipeline; when the ink in the ink circulation loop is in a circulating flow state, the ink flows into the ink cavity of the spray head from the first accommodating cavity; because the first accommodating cavity and the ink cavity of the spray head are in a communication state, the change of the first air pressure within the first negative pressure range can make the ink in the first accommodating cavity and the ink cavity of the spray head oscillate at the same time.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method of brightness correction for the electronic display, which consists of the following steps: take pictures of the electronic display; get the characteristic values of all the light-emitting components in the pictures; calculate the correction values of each light-emitting component with the characteristic values; correct the brightness of the display with the correction values. The present invention reduces the time cost of measuring the actual brightness values of the light-emitting components, and improves the efficiency of correcting the brightness uniformity of the electronic display.

Abstract: A method of uniform distribution for increasing a display rate. For data to be displayed, dividing a complete effective output enable (OE) time that is greater than one serial shift cycle into several unit serial shift cycles and uniformly distributing the effective OE time for display. The method implements the uniform distribution of the display time to the maximum extent by using an OE signal under the condition that the whole display time remains unchanged, thereby increasing effective output number of the uniform distribution, uniformly maintaining a display effect and steadily improving a refresh rate effect, so as to effectively increase a display quality and avoid a significant loss of brightness.

Abstract: An electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection technique protects a semiconductor device against electrostatic discharge events. The technique uses an ESD protection circuit that includes Darlington-connected clamps between the protected I/O pad and a reference voltage conductor with circuitry to prevent leakage. A control signal that is used to control the clamps is derived from another pad.

Abstract: In a computerized method a continuous signal is segmented in order to determine statistically stationary units of the signal. The continuous signal is sampled at periodic intervals to produce a timed sequence of digital samples. Fixed numbers of adjacent digital samples are grouped into a plurality of disjoint sets or frames. A statistical distance between adjacent frames is determined. The adjacent sets are merged into a larger set of samples or cluster if the statistical distance is less than a predetermined threshold. In an iterative process, the statistical distance between the adjacent sets are determined, and as long as the distance is less than the predetermined threshold, the sets are iteratively merged to segment the signal into statistically stationary units.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus determine a color for pixels in a graphics system in which images are defined by pixels. Multiple fragments of an image may be visible in any given pixel. Each visible fragment has a fragment value that includes the color of that fragment. For such given pixel, up to a predetermined number of the fragment values are stored. When a new fragment is visible in the given pixel, one of the fragment values is discarded to determine which fragment values are stored and subsequently used to generate the color of the pixel. The discarded fragment value may be the new fragment value or one of the stored fragment values. Various strategies can be used to determine which fragment value is discarded. One such scheme selects the stored fragment value with the greatest Z-depth. Another scheme selects the stored fragment value that produces the smallest color difference from the new fragment value.

The address bus has N communication lines each configured to transmit one of a first number of bits of the address bits defining the first memory size in the long-bus mode and M of the N communication lines each configured to transmit one of a second number of bits of the address bits defining the second memory size in the short-bus mode, where M is less than N.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sense amplifier that incorporates a logic function. Specifically, that logic function is incorporated into the sense amplifier such that the propagation time of the logic function is avoided and the effective data set-up time of the sense amplifier is reduced. The sense amplifier includes a pair of discharge paths having a true or a complementary version of the logic function associated therewith. When the true or complementary version of the logic function is asserted, one of the discharge paths is turned-on. The output signal that is associated with that discharge path is discharged to a logic low level and the other output signal is pulled to a logic high level. Accordingly, the resulting logic level of the logic function is generated and latched using only the sense amplifier circuit.
