Patent number: 6879551Abstract: An apparatus and method for generating a radio frequency (RF) signal and control signals are provided. In an apparatus for generating a radio frequency (RF) signal and control signals in which the current output from a plurality of light receiving elements is converted into voltage signals and the RF signal and the control signals are generated in response to the voltage signals, the apparatus includes an input data processing unit, a digital filter, a servo signal generating unit, a digital RF data generating unit, and a reference comparator. The input data processing unit performs time-sharing sampling on the voltage signals and converts the voltage signals into first digital signals in response to an analog/digital conversion clock signal having a predetermined period and a sequentially applied selection signal. The digital filter filters each of the first digital signals to modify the shape of the waveforms of the first digital signals and outputs the modified waveforms as second digital signals.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2002Date of Patent: April 12, 2005Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Il-kwon Kim

Patent number: 6192016Abstract: In a data recovery apparatus and method for an optical disk reproduction system, a technique for digital recovery of data from an analog radio frequency (RF) signal is provided. An analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts an analog radio frequency (RF) signal into a digital signal in response to a reference clock signal. A first adder combines an asymmetry error level to the digital RF signal. An adaptive digital equalizer digitally controls the level of the result added by the first adder, in response to a control signal. A digital level detector calculates the asymmetry error amount using the result added by the first adder, and outputs the control signal according to the output of the adaptive digital equalizer and predetermined coefficients. A viterbi decoder decodes the output of the adaptive digital equalizer into a bit train.Type: GrantFiled: November 6, 1998Date of Patent: February 20, 2001Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., LTDInventor: Il-kwon Kim

Patent number: 6159778Abstract: SOI FETs include an electrically insulating substrate, a semiconductor region on the electrically insulating substrate, a field effect transistor having source, drain and channel regions in the semiconductor region and a metal silicide region between the electrically insulating substrate and the semiconductor region. The metal silicide region (e.g., TiSi.sub.2) forms non-rectifying junctions with the source and channel regions of the field effect transistor so that holes accumulated in the channel region (upon impact ionization) can be readily transported to the source region (and contact thereto) via the metal silicide layer and recombination of the holes with electrons in the source region can be carried out with high efficiency. The metal silicide region ohmically contacts the source and channel regions, but does not form a junction with the drain region of said field effect transistor.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 1999Date of Patent: December 12, 2000Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Il-Kwon Kim
