Abstract: A bowling scoring system having a graphic user interface includes an input selection device for receiving user input selections. The bowling scoring system is responsive to a pin-fall sensor to compute bowlers' scores which are displayed to provide information to the bowler. The system includes a controller program having various program states for performing a particular one of a plurality of functions. A plurality of input selection keys juxtaposed with the display device to provide input to the controller. Softkey indicia areas on the display device are associated with one of its input selection keys. The controller is responsive to the state of the program for displaying a particular label in at least one of the indicia areas and for performing a function associated with the displayed label in response to actuation of the one of the input selection keys associated with the labeled indidia area.

Abstract: A wire bonding force calibration meter for measuring automatically a force applied thereto and for displaying the value of the force is provided. The meter is particularly useful, in combination with a wire bonding machine, which bonds wires to silicon dice and to hybrid substrate pads by applying a force on the wires. The meter automatically measures the static setup force applied by the machine on the wires, and automatically measures the dynamic bonding force applied by the machine on the wires. The machine is used particularly for bonding wires in a hybrid. The meter overcomes the problem of manual measurement of the static setup force and the problem of not being able to measure the dynamic bonding force.
