  • Publication number: 20080066485
    Abstract: A Kimchi refrigerator that applies cold shock to Kimchi stored therein at predetermined time intervals, while a keeping mode is performed, so as to improve the taste of the Kimchi, wherein the time intervals are changed, and a control method of the same are disclosed. The Kimchi refrigerator includes a cooling system to cool the interior of the refrigerator in which Kimchi is stored, and a control unit to control the cooling system to perform a cold shock operation in which the interior of the refrigerator is cooled to a cold shock temperature lower than a keeping temperature at predetermined time intervals, for a predetermined period of time, while a keeping mode is performed. The control unit changes the time intervals.

  • Publication number: 20020075058
    Abstract: A method for preventing redundant events from toggling the core logic during scan data shifting mode is provided. A logic element is controlled by SEL. During scan data shifting mode, no toggled data will interfere with the core logic because the logic element is shut off. Only the scan path (SI-SO-SI) continues toggling. Therefore, redundant events are prevented from toggling the core logic. Therefore the simulation time is reduced and the verification flow is sped up. Additionally, the power consumption during testing is significantly reduced.

  • Patent number: 6010497
    Abstract: A laser beam delivery system and a method for ablating tissue, e.g., for reshaping a cornea of an eye is provided. The laser beam delivery system directs a laser beam on the tissue to be ablated in a predetermined pattern according to the principles of the present invention. The laser beam is incrementally scanned to subsequent laser beam ablation points or spots in the ablation zone in accordance with the predetermined pattern. The laser beam ablates tissue at the spots in the predetermined pattern in an arranged order. In one aspect of the present invention, the radii of the predetermined pattern is varied between scans of the laser beam until a predetermined reshaping is achieved by ablation. In another aspect of the present invention, every other, every third, every fourth, etc. laser beam spot in a predetermined pattern is ablated, and the scans are repeated for unablated points until all spots are ablated.

  • Patent number: 5932900
    Abstract: The invention provides an improvement in a cell structure for gate arrays. By using the cell in gate arrays, the design flexibility and the symmetry feature of the gate array can be retained. By providing transistors of different sizes, the design can possess more flexibility and more efficiency. Moreover, a denser chip layout can be completed. Thus, average wire lengths used for interconnections in the chip design may be shorter than previously possible. Also, better utilization of available chip area can be made. Thus, it becomes possible to flexibly and optimally use every area of the chip.
