  • Patent number: 7084685
    Abstract: An output clock is provided by a logic module and at least one flip-flop based on a reference clock. Each flip-flop receives the reference clock at a corresponding clock end and changes a signal level outputted at a corresponding output port according to rising or falling edges within each period of the reference clock. The logic module performs a logic operation among signals at each output port of the flip-flops to generate the output clock synchronized with the reference clock. Thereafter the output clock can be outputted through the data path provided by the logic module, and additional logical operations can be performed between the output clock and other signals.

  • Patent number: 7023784
    Abstract: An encoding method for recording gap regions or sectors having repeated data is disclosed. At least one sector is entirely encoded and stored in a memory buffer of the optical recording system. If the currently encoded are gap regions or sector having repeated data embedded in the fields of user data, only those portions affected by the modified header will be encoded to derive associated P code and Q code. The error detection code is firstly generated in the mode 1 standard when a gap region is encoded. P code is then encoded for those regions affected by the sequentially modified header and error detection code, while associated Q code is then derived according the modified header, error detection code, and P code. In the mode 2 form 1 and mode form 2 standards, only those regions affected by the sequentially modified header should be re-encoded again.

  • Publication number: 20050027966
    Abstract: A digital signal processor (DSP) code download device is disclosed. The device is used for downloading a DSP code comprising a Servo system control code from a re-programmable memory and then storing the DSP code in a memory. The DSP code download device includes a re-programmable memory reader for downloading the DSP code from the re-programmable memory, a download procedure controller coupled to the re-programmable memory reader and a memory accessor coupled to the download procedure controller for accessing the memory. Accordingly, when the DSP code needs to be updated or corrected, it is only necessary to program the re-programmable memory with the required version of DSP code rather than to manufacture a new control chip.

  • Patent number: 6499082
    Abstract: A method for transferring data from a large capacity data storage device to a host machine. The method requires the attachment of a plurality of SRAM memory blocks to an optical disk reader. Each SRAM memory block is used as temporary storage area got a sector of data so that data can be proofread one sector at a time. As soon as the entire sector is checked and corrected, the error-free data is transferred to an external DRAM memory. Thereafter, correct data can be read from the DRAM by the host machine at any time. The internal SRAM memory serves as a buffer holding sectors of data so that error detection and error correction of individual sector can be carried out. Additionally, the external DRAM memory serves as a buffer holding the correct data for the host machine.
