Publication number: 20070162240Abstract: A system and a method for measuring and quantitatively analyzing the jitter in repetitive electrical signals in a chip using a tester are described. The tester sorts chips based on the jitter measurements, thereby eliminating the need for external instrumentation. The waveform is sampled by the tester at various points of a period over a large number of periods and results are collected. The data is analyzed to determine the total range where the waveform is found to undergo a transition. The transition area is further analyzed to pinpoint the precise location of the transition for each period of the repetitive waveform. The data is used to quantify the jitter by means of statistical analyses, the results of which are used by the tester to sort the chips by comparing the calculated jitter characteristics to predetermined criteria.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2006Publication date: July 12, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Samuel Foster, Franco Motika

Patent number: 4077212Abstract: A hydrostatic transmission comprising a closed loop system incorporating a hydraulic pump and a hydraulic motor driven by the pump has an accelerator for the motor drive shaft which sets the maximum delivery pressure of the pump, and control means which acts to vary the relative volume displacement of the pump and the motor to maintain the pump delivery pressure at the maximum value determined by the setting of the accelerator. Thus, the closed loop system maintains a substantially constant maximum pressure throughout the flow range, and since the output torque of the motor drive shaft is proportional to this system pressure a true acceleration control is achieved. The relative value displacement of the pump and the motor may be influenced by the low pressure of delivery of the pump on overrun of the motor shaft and by a spring loaded braking valve adjustable by a pedal control to provide for braking of the motor drive shaft.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 1977Date of Patent: March 7, 1978Assignee: Renold LimitedInventor: Kenneth William Samuel Foster
