Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for displaying pictures at high speed. In one embodiment, a system includes a buffer for storing parameters associated with a predetermined number of the pictures during a video display period. The system further includes a video decoder for decoding particular ones of the predetermined number of the pictures. The predetermined ones are either reference pictures or pictures that are to be displayed at high speed. The pictures that are displayed in high speed at each display interval have a constant time-lapse between the pictures that are displayed in high speed at the next display interval.

Abstract: Information is coupled to a data bus such as an I2C data bus using a push-pull circuit. The push-pull circuit provides for communicating on the data bus at two different data rates. The push-pull circuit includes an active pull-up device that is enabled during a first push-pull mode of operation for providing a high data rate. During a second normal mode of operation, the active pull-up device is disabled providing a low data rate. When the active pull-up device is deactivated, the clock and data buses are driven by the external resistors connected thereto at a data rate lower than the data rate during the first mode.

Abstract: A high-frame rate image acquisition and motion analysis system comprising a first arrangement to obtain an image of an object; a second arrangement coupled to the first arrangement to slice the image into N analog segments, where N is equal to an integer greater than one; a third arrangement coupled to the second arrangement to convert the N analog segments into N digital data streams; a fourth arrangement coupled to the third arrangement to store each of the N digital data streams; a fifth arrangement coupled to the first arrangement, the second arrangement, the third arrangement and the fourth arrangement to provide software control of the operation thereof, the fifth arrangement further controlling the first arrangement and the second arrangement to adjust separately predetermined variables of each of the N analog segments and further controlling the fourth arrangement to provide a read out of an adjusted version of the image; a common enclosure for the first arrangement, the second arrangement, the third
