  • Publication number: 20040125422
    Abstract: A data driver of a display forming an image frame by sequentially scanning horizontal lines. The data driver comprises a shift register receiving image data of three primary colors in serial and outputting them in parallel within each scan duration, a sample and hold register acquiring the image data from the shift register, a gamma multiplexer outputting gamma reference voltages for the three primary colors in a predetermined sequence within each scan duration, three DACs receiving the image data of the three primary colors from the sample and hold register and the gamma reference voltages from the gamma multiplexer, and outputting calibrated image signals of the three primary colors, respectively, and three buffers receiving the calibrated image signals from the three digital-to-analog converters in the sequence of the primary colors.

  • Publication number: 20030170378
    Abstract: The invention provides novel dental enamel inspired materials for biomedical and dental applications. The materials are apatite-like calcium phosphate complexes and may comprise apatite, octacalcium phosphate crystals, or mixtures thereof. In one embodiment, the materials (calcium phosphate coatings) are mixtures of crystals of apatite and its precursor, octacalcium phosphate, nucleated on a titanium surface. They are prepared using a chemical process leading to the formation of biological apatite which is similar to that found in natural bone and teeth. In one embodiment, the materials are prepared by placing a titanium substrate in a supersaturated calcifying solution containing native or purified recombinant amelogenins. The presence of the amelogenins modulates apatite crystal growth to mimic in vivo apatite crystal formation.

  • Patent number: 6552708
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a unit gain buffer of the driver circuit to drive the data line in the filed of LCD data driver, further to be preferably applied to the new TFT-LCD processing of low temperature poly-silicon. This invention is using the plurality of PMOS transistor connection to result in the almost same value between the Vout and Vin. There is no using of the feedback connection in this invention, so the using of the compensation capacitor can be avoided, furthermore the data driver layout area of the LCD driver can be reduced. This invention can improve the defect of the larger layout area result from the prior art.

  • Patent number: 6467057
    Abstract: A scan driver of LCD with fault detection and correction circuit is disclosed herein. The scan driver fabricated on a glass substrate locates at both ends of the scan buses can simultaneously drive the scan buses from both ends. The fault detection and correction circuit of the scan driver is used to determine whether transmitting signal from a DFF at present stage into a DFF at next stage, or transmitting signal from the other DFF at present stage through a scan bus into the other DFF. The fault detection and correction circuit includes the first detecting device, the second detecting device, the control signal generating device, and the transmission control device. The first and the second detecting device generate a first logic level and a second logic level responding to a stuck-at-zero fault and a stuck-at-one fault respectively.

  • Patent number: 6403974
    Abstract: A test device for horizontal position of an optical disc drive, comprising a test platform having a plurality of vertical position rods mounted thereon and the rods being of similar horizontal height; and at least a sensor mounted within the area formed by the position rods located on the platform, and including at least an emitting element and a receiving element, the emitting element emitting an optical detection signal (i.e., incident wave) to an optical disc connectedly driven by the motor rotating shaft of a pick-up mechanism to be tested, by means of a reflected optical signal produced by the optical disc, the receiving element receives the signal, and the sensor produces a horizontal height measuring data, and thereby the results and the measured horizontal height data determine whether the motor horizontal position of the optical disc drive pick-up device is parallel to the horizontal axial direction of the optical disc drive pick-up device.

  • Patent number: 6344061
    Abstract: The invention provides an implantable device coated with a layer of calcium phosphate and optionally one or more biologically active substances such as growth factors, lipis, (lipo)polysaccharides, hormones, proteins, antibiotics or cytostatics. The device can be obtained by a nanotechnology process comprising subjecting a substrate to a surface treatment until a surface roughness with an average peak distance (Ra value) between 10 and 1,000 nm and subjecting the roughened surface to precipitation of calcium phosphate from a solution containing calcium and phosphate ions with optional coprepitation of the biologically active substance.
