Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a check/correct circuit coupled to a control circuit. The check/correct circuit is coupled to receive a block of data and corresponding check bits. The block of data is received as N transmissions, each transmission including M data bits and L check bits. The check/correct circuit is configured to detect one or more errors in each of a plurality of non-overlapping windows of K bits in the M data bits, responsive to the M data bits and the L check bits. The control circuit is configured to record which of the plurality of windows have had errors detected and, if a given window of the plurality of windows has had errors detected in each of the N transmissions of the block, the control circuit is configured to signal a device failure. Each of K, L, M, and N are integers greater than one.

Abstract: A video display includes a scanner operable at a first frequency and a higher second frequency. A switch mode power supply drives a transformer with three secondaries. First and second rectifiers & filters are associated with the first and second secondaries. A rectifier is coupled to the third secondary and by way of a switch to the first filter. Feedback from the first filter controls the SMPS. In a first operating mode, the scanner is operated at the first frequency, the switch is open, the scanner supply is a first voltage from the first filter, and ancillary equipment is supplied with a third voltage by the second filter. In a second operating mode, the scanner is operated at the second frequency, the switch is closed, the scanner supply is a second voltage, higher than the first, from the first filter, and ancillary equipment is supplied with the same third voltage.
