摘要： A video imaging system includes a digital image sensor for performing image capture operations and a digital image processor for performing image processing operations. The digital image sensor includes a sensor array outputting digital pixel data, an image buffer for storing the pixel data, a first processor and a first interface circuit for transferring the pixel data onto a pixel bus. The digital image processor includes a second interface circuit coupled to receive the pixel data from the pixel bus, a frame buffer coupled to store the pixel data, an image processing pipeline for processing the pixel data stored in the frame buffer into video data, and a second processor. The digital image sensor and the digital image processor transfer control information over a control interface bus and the digital image sensor performs the image capture operations independent of the image processing operations performed by the digital image processor.

摘要： A method for removing a stationary noise pattern from digital images uses an adaptive noise estimation algorithm to calculate a prediction of the fixed pattern noise and a confidence estimate for the prediction. In one embodiment, a predicted noise value is obtained from the captured image and a predicted image derived from spatial and temporal pixel value prediction techniques. The predicted noise value is used to update a fixed pattern noise estimate only when the confidence estimate for the predicted image is high. In another embodiment, the confidence estimate is used as a weight factor for blending the noise prediction into the noise estimate. In yet another embodiment, the adaptive noise estimation algorithm is applied to a prediction area in the image for calculating scaling parameters which scaling parameters are used to calculate a noise estimate for the entire image based on a reference noise image.

摘要： The method is related to control a measurement of a magnetic resonance device based on electrocardiogram signals of a patient detected by at least two channels. The method comprises the steps of: supplying the electrocardiogram signals in a first processing branch to a low pass filter and a derived value sum generator; comparing the output signal with a threshold value to generate a first comparison result; feeding the electrocardiogram signals in a second processing branch to a derived value generator; comparing said signals with an upper and a lower threshold value to generate a second comparison result; repeat the above steps for the second and if necessary further channels; evaluating all first and second comparison results for all channels in a weighted logic circuit; and triggering the measurement as a function of the result of the weighted logic circuit.

摘要： A method for providing an identifier for a semiconductor chip after the manufacture of the semiconductor chip using a fabrication process includes selecting one or more circuit elements formed on the semiconductor chip where each of the circuit elements having an electrical parameter that has a time-invariant statistical process variation, measuring data values of the electrical parameter of the one or more circuit elements, processing the data values, and deriving the identifier for the semiconductor chip using the processed data values. The identifier identifies the semiconductor chip from other semiconductor chips manufactured using the fabrication process. The circuit elements can be selected from the group of bipolar transistors, MOS transistors, light detecting pixel elements, and memory cells. The chip identification method is particularly useful for identifying image sensor chips where the dark current values or the defective pixel locations can be used as the chip identifier.

摘要： A system and methods are shown for handling multiple target memory requests. Memory read requests generated by a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) client are received by a PCI bus controller. The PCI bus controller passes the memory request to a memory controller used to access main memory. The memory controller passes the memory request to a bus interface unit used to access cache memory and a processor. The bus interface unit determines if cache memory can be used to provide the data associated with the PCI client's memory request. While the bus interface unit determines if cache memory may be used, the memory controller continues to process the memory request to main memory. If cache memory can be used, the bus interface unit provides the data to the PCI client and sends a notification to the memory controller. The memory controller identifies the memory request, or returned data associated with the request, and discards it to ensure no data is returned to the bus controller from the memory controller. Once the data is received from the bus interface unit, the bus controller is free to send new memory read requests to the memory controller.

摘要： A digital imaging system includes an image sensor, a frame buffer and a tone correction circuit. The tone correction circuit computes tone corrected pixel data using one or more tone correction curves. In operation, tone corrected pixel data for a first pixel is computed by generating a pixel mask for an m×n neighborhood of pixels surrounding the first pixel, applying a blending mask of weight factors to the pixel mask and computing a selector value based on the pixel mask and weight factors associated with the blending mask. The selector value is used to derive a first tone correction curve for use to compute the tone corrected pixel data for the first pixel. The first tone correction curve can be selected from the multiple tone correction curves based on the selector value or it can be derived by blending multiple tone correction curves based on the selector value.

These architectures separate linearity requirements from isolation requirements and reduce the number of throws on switches requiring linearity through the use of distributed switching, filter structure placement between the switch functions, not sharing a power amplifier between frequency bands that have a Tx to Rx overlap, and simplifying the switching structure using filtering networks or multiple antennas.

摘要： A micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) waveform generator is provided. The MEMS waveform generator includes a plurality of capacitive sensors. Each of the plurality of capacitive sensors has a movable sensor portion and a corresponding fixed sensor portion. The movable and fixed sensor portions each have a plurality of electrically conductive features. One or more of the electrically conductive features has one or more predetermined non-uniform portions. The MEMS waveform generator further includes an actuator that receives a time-varying input signal and causes each movable sensor portion to move relative to a corresponding fixed sensor portion in response to the time-varying signal. The waveform generator provides a mechanism of synthesizing non-sinusoidal periodic waveforms in an energy-efficient manner. In the context of one exemplary application, the waveform generator provides a mechanism for driving adiabatic logic circuits with extremely low total power dissipation at a given level of performance.
