摘要:
The invention relates to a method for generating piecewise-affine multivariable functions, comprising the on-line computation of the search tree in order to locate the input value in the polytopes of the partition, and the subsequent generation of the corresponding affine function. The invention also relates to a configurable and programmable device for generating piecewise-affine multivariable functions, formed by an architecture having four functional blocks, namely a control unit block (1), a tree memory block, a parameter memory block and an arithmetic unit block, as well as having at least three operating modes that can be selected using different values of a bus (config): writing of the tree memory, writing of the parameter memory and evaluating the affine function. The device can also have a fourth operating mode, i.e. the test mode.

A method for generating a pulse signal sequence using a processor unit (28) shall be provided that allows calibrating a tip timing measurement system in a turbomachine in order to increase operational security and lifespan of the turbomachine. This is achieved by the method comprising the steps of: - storing a number of wait time elements in a memory unit (30), - creating a pulse signal in a signal output unit (24) during at least one processor cycle, - reading a wait time element from said memory unit (30), and - creating a null signal in said signal output unit (24) for a number of processor cycles derived from said wait time element read.

A state machine for generating signals configured for generating different signals according to the current state (S0, S1, S2, S3, IDLE) of the machine. The state machine is configured to change state both as a function of an internal timer (Cmp(n)) and as a function of signals (Edge(x); Edge (y)) representative of events external to the state machine.

The invention relates to a device (D) intended for controlling the execution of instructions, that comprises: i) a receptacle (RP) carried by at least one hand of a user and having a rear surface (FAR) provided with rear actuators (AC); ii) a storing means (MS) capable of storing, for at least one application, a table of correspondence between at least one operation mode and a set of selected instructions associated with icons of relative positions defined according to a selected arrangement; and ii) control means (MC) for, in case an application operation mode is selected, determining the table corresponding thereto and associating the instructions contained in said table to actuation types of the rear actuators (AC) selected on the basis of the relative positions of icons respectively associated with these instructions, at least some of said icons being displayed on at least one screen (EC1) according to their selected arrangement so as to materialise the relative positions on the rear surface (FAR) of the rear actuators (AC) and of the selected actuation types, and, in case of manual actuation according to one type of actuation of a rear actuator (AC), commanding the execution of the instruction associated with the type of actuation of said rear actuator (AC).
摘要:
Method and apparatus for synthesizing high-performance linear finite state machines (LFSMs) such as linear feed-back shift registers (LFSRs) or cellular automata (CA). Given a characteristic polynomial for the circuit, the method obtains an original LFSR circuit (26) such as a type I or type II LFSR. Feedback connections within the original circuit are then determined (28). Subsequently, a number of transformations that shift the feedback connections can be applied in such a way that properties of the original circuit are preserved in a modified LFSR circuit (30). In particular, if the original circuit is represented by a primitive characteristic polynomial, the method preserved the maximum-length property of the original circuit in the modified circuit and enables the modified circuit to produce the same m-sequence as the original circuit. Through the various transformations, a modified LFSR circuit can be created that provides higher performance through shorter feedback connection lines, fewer levels of logic, and lower internal fan-out.
摘要:
A digital frequency synthesizer includes a clock which produces a clock signal oscillating at a fixed frequency and a delay line which receives the clock signal and which produces therefrom a plurality of phase shifted clock signals oscillating at the fixed frequency. Each phase shifted clock signal is shifted in phase with respect to the clock signal and with respect to the other phase shifted clock signals. A look-up table receives an address value related to an ideal phase shifted clock signal oscillating at the fixed frequency and outputs a tap address related to the address value. A selection circuit receives the plurality of phase shifted clock signals and the tap address and outputs one of the phase shifted clock signals in response thereto. A sampling circuit samples at least a portion of the one phase shifted clock signal output by the selection circuit and outputs the sampled portion to form at least a part of an oscillator signal having a desired frequency.
