Patent number: 8237756Abstract: A novel method for driving a display having an array of pixels arranged in a plurality of columns and a plurality of rows includes the steps of defining a modulation period for a row of pixels, dividing the modulation period into a number of coequal time intervals equal to n times the number of rows in the array, receiving a multi-bit data word that indicates an intensity value, and updating the signal asserted on the pixel during a plurality of the time intervals such that the intensity value is displayed by the pixel. Note that n is an integer greater than zero. The method can be applied to all rows, which can be driven asynchronously. A display driver for performing the novel methods is also disclosed. The present invention facilitates driving the display at 100% bandwidth efficiency during each time interval in the modulation period.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2008Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: OmniVision Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Kin Yip Kenneth Kwan, Andrea Nguyen, Sunny Yat-san Ng, William K.

Patent number: 7721920Abstract: A cap is provided for coupling with a pressure-resistant container to form an aerosol spray bottle. The cap includes a spray trigger for controlling a valve. The cap can have an outward slant from the cap bottom where the cap couples with the container. The top profile of the cap from a side view can have a convex shape. The cap can have a front side where the substance is expelled that is higher than the back side where the base of a user's finger would be when the user actuates the trigger with a fingertip.Type: GrantFiled: May 31, 2006Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Assignee: The Clorox CompanyInventors: Ricardo Ruiz De Gopegui, Katie K.
