Abstract: One embodiment in accordance with the invention can include a capacitive touch screen. The capacitive touch screen includes a substantially transparent substrate and a plurality of electrodes formed on the substantially transparent substrate. The plurality of electrodes are substantially parallel in a first direction and each of the plurality of electrodes includes a layer of light altering material.

Abstract: A method of operating a touch-sensing surface may include determining a presence of at least one conductive object at the touch-sensing surface by performing a search measurement of a first set of sensor elements of the touch-sensing surface, and in response to determining the presence of the at least one conductive object, determining a location of the at least one conductive object by performing a tracking measurement of a second set of sensor elements of the touch-sensing surface.

Abstract: Embodiments of a method and apparatus for aggregating Ethernet streams are generally described. According to but one example embodiment, implementations of a physical coding sublayer (PCS) modify one or more Ethernet streams to uniquely distinguish at least one of the Ethernet streams from the other Ethernet streams. Any two or more of the modified Ethernet streams may be interleaved to form an aggregate Ethernet stream. The aggregate Ethernet stream may by transmitted over a serial link.

Abstract: A method and system for a feed-forward encoder is described. The method includes evaluating one or more source characters to determine whether each source character will invert or maintain a current running disparity and determining a running disparity for each source character before encoding the source character based on the current running disparity and whether the source character will invert or maintain the current running disparity. The current running disparity along with the associated source character may then be passed to an encoder to encode the source character into a transmission character.
