Abstract: A bit synchronization method and system for a GPS, which receives a satellite signal sent by a satellite to accordingly produce a synchronous signal. Each data bit of the satellite signal consists of N CA-codes. A data buffer receives and stores the data bits of the satellite signal. A matched filter filters the N CA-codes of each data bit in order to compute correlations of the N CA-codes of each data bit, and accordingly output a correlation set corresponding to the data bit, wherein the correlation set has N correlations. A selector selects one with the greatest value from the N correlations and uses the CA-code corresponding to the one with the greatest value as the synchronization signal.

The sealant has a plurality of conductive beads (270) mixed therein. The conductive beads electrically interconnect the first and second substrates. Because the conductive beads are mixed in the sealant, the conductive beads do not influence a uniformity of a height of the sealant.

Thus, the method for fabricating the liquid crystal panel is simplified.

Abstract: An exemplary liquid crystal panel (11) includes a first mother substrate (210), a second mother substrate (220) opposite to the first mother substrate, sealant (230), and conductive adhesive (240). The sealant is discontinuously provided at the first mother substrate, thereby defining a plurality of gaps (232) in the sealant. The conductive adhesive is filled in the gaps. When the second mother substrate is attached onto the first mother substrate and pressed, only a minimal amount of conductive adhesive expands beyond the outer boundary of the sealant. Therefore a subsequent step of cutting or splitting the mother liquid crystal panel into liquid crystal panels is unencumbered by any unwanted collateral conductive adhesive bonding. Moreover, because the sizes of the portions of the conductive adhesive can be configured as desired, it is relatively easy to mix the metal beads in the sealant to prepare the conductive adhesive.
