摘要： A method of providing and processing a plurality of stored-value cards includes providing a stored-value card assembly including the plurality of stored-value cards in a housing. The plurality of stored-value cards includes a first stored-value card and a last stored-value card. Each of the plurality of stored-value cards is associated with a different account identifier linking each one of the plurality of stored-value cards to a different financial record or account. The different account identifiers collectively define a series of account identifiers. The method further includes scanning the different account identifier associated with the first stored-value card using a point-of-sale terminal, and scanning the different account identifier associated with the last stored-value card using the point-of-sale terminal. The housing indicates which of the different account identifier associated with the first stored-value card and the last stored-value card should be scanned first. Other card assemblies and associated methods are also disclosed.

摘要： A circuit provides an output signal having a portion with a constant maximum amplitude, followed by a portion decreasing down to a constant zero value when an input voltage increases from zero. The circuit includes an asymmetrical differential stage having a low gain branch and a high gain branch, respectively controlling two branches of a symmetrical differential stage. The current of the asymmetrical differential stage corresponds to the end of the decreasing portion. The current of the symmetrical differential stage corresponds to the maximum amplitude of the signal which is provided by one of the branches of the symmetrical differential stage. The high gain branch and low gain branch are respectively controlled by the input voltage and by a voltage corresponding to the beginning of the decreasing portion.

摘要： An auxiliary video data slicer for extracting auxiliary video information from a video signal includes a peak detector. The peak detector determines a peak amplitude of horizontal sync pulses that are included in the video signal and a peak amplitude of a run-in-clock (RIC) waveform that is included in an auxiliary information component of the video signal. A variable threshold level for the peak detector is varied in a first range to detect the peak amplitude of the sync pulses. A threshold voltage for detecting the leading edge of sync pulses is derived from the peak amplitude of the sync pulses. The location of the RIC waveform within a video line interval is determined in response to detection of a sync pulse edge. The variable threshold level of the peak detector is varied in a second range to detect the peak amplitude of the RIC signal. A data slicing threshold level for extracting auxiliary video information is derived from the peak value of the RIC signal.
