Patent number: 11446927Abstract: A method of bonding printed circuit sheets to one another, each of the printed circuit sheets having a pattern of electrically conductive tracks, and the bonding being carried out by applying an adhesive to one of the sheets in a connection zone where the tracks on the one sheet are to be connected to corresponding tracks on the other sheet, superposing the sheets in the connection zone such that the adhesive is sandwiched between the sheets, and aligning the sheets such that corresponding tracks on the two sheets are aligned with one another. The method includes a preparatory step of forming extra tracks on the two sheets such that, in the alignment and compression steps, the extra tracks are brought into engagement with one another and constitute a barrier for the adhesive.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2020Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: CANON PRODUCTION PRINTING HOLDING B.V.Inventor: Peter J.

Patent number: 8098692Abstract: A method and system communicates payload data over a plurality of low voltage differential signaling (LVDS) channels (50). First device (100) transmits the payload data and synchronization information to the second device (150) over N LVDS channels (50), along with a word clock synchronized to the payload data. The second device generates M LVDS receive clocks from the word clock, each having a same frequency that is P times a frequency of the word clock, and each having a different phase. Each of N LVDS receivers (160) of the second device (150): correlates the synchronization data with a reference word using each of the M LVDS receive clocks to produce a correlation value for each of the M LVDS receive clocks; selects a selected LVDS receive clock producing a greatest correlation value; and receives the payload data for the corresponding LVDS channel (50) using the selected LVDS receive clock.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2007Date of Patent: January 17, 2012Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Remus Albu, Peter J.

Patent number: 6896371Abstract: A digital image projector includes an illumination-light source lamp and illumination beam forming optics for forming a white-spectrum illumination beam and color-band-separation optics to divide the illumination beam into color-component subbeams. The digital image projector also includes a reflective digital-image-encoding polarization modulator mechanism such as a reflective liquid crystal display polarization modulator to reflectively modulate the linearly polarized subbeams to form color-component image encoded-polarization subbeams and projection lens optics for projecting a color image divided from the image encoded-polarization subbeams.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2002Date of Patent: May 24, 2005Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Jeffrey A.

Patent number: 6690432Abstract: A prism is mounted onto a motor without regard to its rotation angle relative to the motor index. Its position is electronically set later after construction of the optical path. A motor controller is used to control the rotation of the prism. This motor controller keeps the prism spinning at a constant velocity and positions the prism phase (rotation angle versus time). A variable offset is used to position the absolute prism rotation as a function of time. The phase may be advanced or delayed by an operator during set up. Each prism has its own phase. The phase of each prism in the system is set so that the illumination pattern correctly matches the video addressing of the panel. This is a one time set up during construction. The correct positions are set, and stored in non-volatile memory for life.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2001Date of Patent: February 10, 2004Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: Peter J. M. Janssen, Jeffrey A. Shimizu, John E. Dean, Douglas A. Stanton

Patent number: 6683658Abstract: A scanner phase control for a scrolling color projector utilizes the back-EMF value of a motor which rotates a prism of the scanner to set a reference point for the prism. A reference phase signal is provided which corresponds to timing information of the scan of a stripe of light provided by the prism. The phase of the motor is altered in response to the reference phase signal such that the back-EMF zero crossings of the motor coincide with the beginning of a scan as identified by the reference phase signal.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2001Date of Patent: January 27, 2004Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventor: Peter J.

Patent number: 4839882Abstract: A record carrier is described with an optically readable trackwise-arranged information structure, and an apparatus for reading said carrier. The distances between the tracks of the information structure vary so that by projecting, in addition to a read spot, at least one address spot to the information structure of a size such that is spans a number of tracks approximately equal the quotient of the average track distance and the amplitude of the track distance variation, the read spot can be rapidly addressed to a specific group of tracks. This is done with the aid of two detectors which are disposed in the path of the address-beam radiation which is diffracted in a first order by the information structure in a direction transverse to the track direction.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 1980Date of Patent: June 13, 1989Assignee: U.

Patent number: 4510508Abstract: An optically readable storage disc comprises a transparent substrate 1 on which a recording layer 2 is deposited which can be modified locally by means of a radiation beam, which recording layer is covered by a cover disc 3 which is secured to the substrate in a gas-tight manner at some distance from the part of the recording layer which is intended for recording, so that a sealed space 4 is enclosed between the substrate 1 and the cover disc 3. The cover disc 3 will be deformed to the greatest extent under the influence of differences between the gas pressure in the sealed space 4 and the barometric pressure because its resistance to deformation is substantially smaller, so that deformation of the substrate 1 is substantially precluded.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 1983Date of Patent: April 9, 1985Assignee: U.S. Philips CorporationInventor: Peter J.
