  • Publication number: 20050195176
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for processing Hsync and Vsync signals in graphic controllers to avoid a false reading of pulses caused by glitches. The apparatus and method involve detecting when the synch signal crosses the threshold for the first time. When this occurs, the output of the detection circuit is held for the predetermined period of time, even if subsequent transitions across threshold occur during this period. After the predetermined period expires, the output is released and may assume the same state as the input sync signal at that time. In this manner, a misinterpretation of the resolution format caused by the reading of a “false” pulse caused by a glitch on a sync signal can be avoided.

  • Publication number: 20050186758
    Abstract: A technique for forming a film of material (12) from a donor substrate (10). The technique has a step of introducing energetic particles (22) through a surface of a donor substrate (10) to a selected depth (20) underneath the surface, where the particles have a relatively high concentration to define a donor substrate material (12) above the selected depth. An energy source is directed to a selected region of the donor substrate to initiate a controlled cleaving action of the substrate (10) at the selected depth (20), whereupon the cleaving action provides an expanding cleave front to free the donor material from a remaining portion of the donor substrate.

  • Publication number: 20050184948
    Abstract: An extended overdrive table uses the saturation regions to store useful data that conformably extends the unsaturated region in a natural way. This extended overdrive table reduces the size of any interpolation errors when straddling crossover points to acceptable levels without requiring storing or using any crossover data. In addition, since the saturation regions are used to hold the new data, no additional storage requirements are introduced. The numeric range of the extended table is increased and it is therefore supposed that the bit depth of the table entries is increased, but the table can be resealed to retain the original bit depth with insignificant loss of accuracy. Also, the new data incorporated into the saturation regions allows run time calculation of the pixel attained at the end of the frame time that is needed as the start of the pixel for the next cycle.

  • Patent number: 6933937
    Abstract: Pixel clock frequency and optimum sampling phase adjustment is an important requirement in Flat panel display monitors (FPDM) with an analog video interface. This invention proposes a new and more advanced method for frequency an optimum sampling phase determination. It is based on analyzing the content of the image to arrive at an optimum value of phase and frequency by directly optimizing image quality. The method differs from exsisting methods on two counts. First, no assumptions are needed about the precise value of expected frequency. Second, instead of following a two step approach of first determining frequency and then phase, this invention makes possible a single pass phase-frequency optimization.
