  • Patent number: 10605842
    Abstract: A method for analyzing noise spectrum of an electronic device includes storing a waveform data including a plurality of data points, the waveform data is obtained by measuring a target signal from the electronic device, removing data points corresponding to a background noise fluctuation based on a smooth curve of the waveform data, data points considered candidates for peaks are extracted from the waveform data, classifying the extracted data points based on a distance between adjacent data points in order to discriminate a cluster of distant data points from data points closely positioned to dominant peaks, determining the dominant peaks based on the cluster of distant data points such that the data points closely positioned to the dominant peaks are ignored, each dominant peak corresponds to the characteristic of the electronic device, and outputting the dominant peaks as an analysis result for the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 6927771
    Abstract: To provide a data displaying method, a computer system, and a computer-readable recording medium. A data displaying method employed for a computer system that includes a computer means 2 with a database DB; display means 3; and pointer means 4 for entering a position on the screen of the display means 3. The method includes a step of reading data from the database DB and plotting the data on the screen of the display means 3 with respect to the first variable so as to plot a main graph; a step of deciding whether or not an input from the pointer means 4 is a request for plotting data related to the second variable; a step of deciding coordinate data of a position of the main graph displayed on the screen of the display means 3; and a step of searching the coordinate data from the database DB.

  • Patent number: 6750732
    Abstract: A microstrip-type of circuit board is used as a source driver for a liquid crystal display. Video signal buses extend in a longitudinal direction on the board. Along a centerline of the longitudinal direction of the board, there are provided through vias to which a signal from a tab driver is propagated. Each video signal bus has a plurality of through vias disposed symmetrically with respect to the though vias disposed along the centerline of the longitudinal direction of the board, with tab leads electrically connected to the symmetrically disposed through via. The substantial symmetry of the circuit board provides the advantage of substantially suppressing EMI.
