Abstract: An electronic circuit for converting a signal between digital and analog in a burst mode, including a processor configured to utilize a synchronizing clock signal, a converter configured to convert a signal data between digital and analog using a converter clock signal, a phase comparator configured to determine a phase relationship between the synchronizing clock signal and the converter clock signal, and a digital signal processor coupled to the phase comparator and configured to receive an information about the phase relationship, wherein the digital signal processor is configured to apply a delay to the signal data being exchanged between the processor and. The synchronizing clock signal and the converter clock signal have a predetermined frequency relationship.

Abstract: A measurement unit comprising a converter unit and a processing unit and configured to provide a measurement result value, based on a first input signal. The converter unit is configured to provide first digital, quantized values based on the first input signal. The measurement unit is further configured to calculate second values, which represents a reference quantity or a reference value, for a plurality of quantization step sizes associated with different values of the control signal. The measurement unit is configured to change the control signal of the converter unit between determination of different first values and/or a determination of the different second values, such that different first values and/or different second values are provided using different converter quantization step sizes. The processing unit is configured to provide a measurement result value from a predefined number of first values and a predefined number of second values.

Abstract: The invention concerns a circuit for transferring a data from one clock domain to another clock domain, the circuit comprising: a digital circuit configured to generate a data signal synchronized with a source clock signal, and to receive such data by sampling the data signal synchronized with a target clock signal; a phase comparator which is configured to determine a phase relationship between the source clock signal and the target clock signal; and a data signal synchronization circuit configured to receive data signal transitions that are synchronized with the source clock signal, and to provide a synchronized data signal transitions of which are synchronized with the target clock signal.

Abstract: A measurement unit comprising a converter unit and a processing unit is configured to provide a measurement result value, based on a first input signal and a second input signal. The converter unit is configured to provide a first digital, quantized values based on the first input signal or derived from the first input signal and the second input signal. The converter unit is further configured to provide second digital, quantized values based on the second input signal.

Abstract: A composite workpiece having at least one metallic cover layer and a non-metallic core layer is disclosed. The metallic cover layer and the non-metallic core layer are connected to one another, with one lying on top of the other. The metallic cover layer, in a marking region on a side facing toward the non-metallic core layer, includes a profile, in particular a surface profile, for marking the composite workpiece.

Abstract: A method of displaying information on a screen, including providing the information, wherein the information is based on user text information, and displaying a predefined message on a screen, if the user text information is empty or invalid, otherwise displaying the user text information on the screen for a display time, wherein the display time depends on an amount and/or complexity of the user text information.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for displaying a message on a screen of a television including the steps of displaying a television picture on the screen; displaying the message in a message region of the screen, wherein the television picture is at least partly visible within the message region; and blurring the television picture in the message region.

Abstract: An illuminating element (110) of an electronic device (100) is associated to an operating element (120), which may be a control element (122) or a connector socket (121). A controller (130) performs a user-guidance procedure or an input port selection procedure and controls the illuminating element (110) in dependence on a progress of the procedure. For example, in case of an operating manual display procedure or a help procedure, connector sockets (121) and/or control elements (122), to which the on-screen operating manual or the help procedure currently refers, may be illuminated in the relevant context. Other embodiments refer to the illumination of operating elements (120) that could or should be operated at a certain point in time in the course of an input port selection procedure.
