摘要： A digital time-stamping system for issuing stamps on messages by means of a cryptographic digital signature includes a front end unit (10), a load balancer (50) and one or more public key signature units (60). Incoming messages are rapidly and temporarily time-stamped by means of a MAC generator (30) in the front end unit, and the message is then passed on to the load balancer. The load balancer queues the messages, and passes them on at an appropriate speed to the public key signature units (60), which verifies the MAC and resigns the message with a public key signature. The front end unit (10) and the public key signature units (60) are preferably individual secure modules with the load balancer (50) being outside the security boundaries. The system enables large numbers of incoming messages to be accurately time-stamped in a secure manner.

摘要： An encoder-type register for an automatic meter reader to be interfaced with a visual read-only register of the kind found in a water meter that measures water consumption. The water meter register has a rotatable sweep hand that carries a magnet and rotates around a register plate in relation to the speed and volume of water moving through the water meter. A plurality of (e.g., three) magnetic (e.g., Hall effect) sensors are fixedly positioned one-after-another in the path of the magnet carried by the rotating sweep hand. The magnetic sensors measure the magnetic field produced by the rotating magnet and generate corresponding output signals. A microprocessor receives the output signals generated by the magnetic sensors whenever the magnet rotates therepast. The microprocessor stores information concerning the number of rotations of the magnet carried by the sweep hand depending upon the direction in which the magnet is being rotated as an indication of water consumption. The microprocessor provides the stored information to a meter interface unit connected to a set of output terminals of the encoder register so that such information can be transmitted from the meter interface unit to a remote data collector over a wireless communication path.

摘要： The present inventions relate to a smart transmitter technology that provides for a more stable transmitted signal power level, a more stable transmitted signal carrier frequency, a sleep mode without the need for receiving a wakeup signal, and a universal communication interface. The smart transmitter may comprise selective of a processor, a universal communication interface, transmitter circuitry, a reference-frequency-generator, a depletable power source, and an antenna. The processor configures the transmitter circuitry to adjust the power level of the transmitted signal based on the quality of power supplied to the transmitter circuitry. The processor is further configured to access temperature data from a temperature sensor and compensate for expected changes in the frequency output of the reference-frequency-generator. Finally, the processor is configured to initiate an AutoCommSelect routine that selects the proper universal communication interface configuration and communication protocol required to communicate with a data-source connected to the transmitter.

摘要： A secure time stamping device uses multiple virtual clocks, each of which may be individually accessed and calibrated. A digital key is associated with each of the clocks. All of the virtual clocks use a common timer (130), with the actual clock output being generated by applying calibration information (124) for that clock to the timer (130) output. A user wishing to have a message time stamped presents that message along with information as to which virtual clock to be used at a device input (92). The appropriate calibration information (124) is then selected and the timer (130) output is compensated accordingly. The incoming message plus the resultant time are concatenated and automatically signed using the key (126) applicable to that particular virtual clock.

摘要： A damascene structure and method for forming such structure. In one embodiment, the damascene structure of the present invention includes a first layer of oxide which is a stochiometric oxide deposited onto a semiconductor substrate. A second layer of oxide which is a non-stochiometric oxide is then deposited onto the semiconductor substrate which is followed by a stochiometric oxide layer. The semiconductor substrate is then masked and etched so as to form vias using a selective etch process which etches the stochiometric oxide and stops etching on the non-stochiometric oxide layer. The etch chemistry is then changed in-situ, allowing the removal of the non-stochiometric oxide at the bottom of the via. The wafer is then re-masked in the pattern of trench interconnect using a selective etch process to selectively etch the layer of stochiometric oxide in the damascene trench down to the layer of non-stochiometric oxide while simultaneously completing the etching of vias. The use of the layer of non-stochiometric oxide as an etch stop gives trenches with a substantially planar bottom surface in a process superior in simplicity and process margin compared to nitride etch stop technologies. Metal is deposited over the semiconductor substrate and is polished so as to remove the metal which overlies the layer of stochiometric oxide so as to form interconnects having uniform depth and contacts. In an alternate embodiment, a damascene structure is formed without the deposition of the first stochiometric oxide layer and etched using an initial non selective etch.
