    Abstract: An outlet (70, 75, 76, 78, 79) for a Local Area Network (LAN), containing an integrated adapter (21, 25) that converts digital data to and from analog video signal. Such an outlet allows using analog video units in a digital data network (80), eliminating the need for a digital video units or external adapter. The outlet may include a hub (31, 41) that allows connecting both an analog video signal via an adapter, as well as retaining the data network connection, which may be accessed by a network jack (73). The invention may also be applied to a telephone line-based data networking system. In such an environment, the data networking circuitry as well as the analog video adapters are integrated into a telephone outlet, providing for regular telephone service, analog video connectivity, and data networking as well. In such a configuration, the outlet would have a standard telephone jack (71), an analog video jack (72) and at least one data networking jack (73). Outlets according to the invention can be used to retrofit existing LAN and in-building telephone wiring, as well as original equipment in new installation

    Abstract: A local area network using the telephone wiring within a residence or other building simultaneously with telephony signals. The local area network uses high pass filters to access the high-frequency band across the media, whereas the standard telephone service uses low pass filters to access the low-frequency voice/analog telephony band across the same media. The electrically-conducting media connecting telephone/data outlets are split, or separated at each outlet, and the outlets are modified to provide access to both ends of the resulting segments. The low pass filters at each segment end join the segments together, allowing analog telephony signals to travel throughout the network, thus supporting normal telephone service. The high pass filters at each segment end are connected to modems or other Data Communication Equipment, thus supporting data communication networks of various topologies, including point-to-point topologies.

    Abstract: An apparatus for and method of enhancing the accuracy of analog-digital-analog conversions achieves improved accuracy by generating a dither signal which is combined with an input analog signal before the analog input signal is converted to digital form. The combined input analog/dither signal is then converted to digital. The digital signal is then processed or delayed in accordance with the desired function to be performed by the circuit. After digital processing, the digital values are converted back into analog form and the dither signal subsequently removed from the output signal. In addition, an apparatus for and method of enhancing the accuracy of analog-digital-analog conversions that does not utilize an explicit dither signal, utilizes linear interpolation techniques to achieve the effect of a pseudo dither signal. Similarly, time multiplexing techniques are also used to achieve the same effect. The principles of the present invention are applicable in systems that generate analog signals using consecutive digital samples. The resultant output signals from such systems exhibit improved accuracy, lower distortion and higher resolution. The present invention can also be utilized to maintain the original output resolution while requiring fewer bits to represent the digital samples.

    Abstract: A method and system are provided for calibrating a batch of devices each containing a circuit which is responsive to a control signal for producing a desired output which varies in accordance with a first predetermined function of a specific ambient condition, the control signal having a magnitude which varies as a second predetermined function of the specific ambient condition, the second function being based on data stored as a look-up table in a memory of the device and which must be individually calibrated for each device. In a preferred embodiment, the device is a digital temperature controlled crystal oscillator which produces a desired output frequency and includes a voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) responsive to a control signal having a magnitude which varies as a predetermined function of ambient temperature in order to compensate for temperature variations in the oscillator output frequency. For such an application, the invention requires the connection of an accurate frequency source to each oscillator in the batch so as to enable the output frequency of the oscillator to be equalized thereto or to a multiple thereof. In calibration mode, the digital equivalent of the resulting analog control voltage is stored; whilst in compensation mode it is extracted from the memory, converted to an equivalent analog voltage and applied to the VCO. The invention is also applicable to compensate for aging of crystal oscillators in the field without requiring reconfiguring the complete look-up table.

    Abstract: Method, modules and a system formed by connecting the modules for controlling payloads are disclosed. An activation signal is propagated in the system from a module to the modules connected to it. Upon receiving an activation signal, the module (after a pre-set or random delay) activates a payload associated with it, and transmits the activation signal (after another pre-set or random delay) to one or more modules connected to it. The system is initiated by a master module including a user activated switch producing the activation signal. The activation signal can be propagated in the system in one direction from the master to the last module, or carried bi-directionally allowing two way propagation, using a module which revert the direction of the activation signal propagation direction. A module may be individually powered by an internal power source such as a battery, or connected to external power source such as AC power. The system may use remote powering wherein few or all of the modules are powered from the same power source connected to the system in a single point. The power may be carried over dedicated wires or concurrently with the conductors carrying the activation signal. The payload may be a visual or an audible signaling device, and can be integrated within a module or external to it. The payload may be powered by a module or using a dedicated power source, and can involve randomness associated with its activation such as the delay, payload control or payload activation.

    Abstract: A local area network (60) within a residence or other building, including both wired (5) and non-wired segments (53). The wired segments are based on new or existing wires (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e) in the building, wherein access to the wires is provided by outlets (61a, 61d), such as a telephone system, electrical power distribution system, or cable television wiring system. The non-wired segments are based on communication using propagated waves such as radio, sound, or light (e.g. infrared). The wired and non-wired segments interface in the outlet, using a module (50) that serves as mediator between the segments. The module can be integrated into the outlet, partially housed in the outlet, or attached externally to the outlet. Such a network allows for integrated communication of data units (24b) connected by wires and data units (24a, 24d) connected without wires.

    Abstract: A serial intelligent cell (SIC) and a connection topology for local area networks using Electrically-conducting media. A local area network can be configured from a plurality of SIC's interconnected so that all communications between two adjacent SIC's is both point-to-point and bidirectional. Each SIC can be connected to one or more other SIC's to allow redundant communication paths. Communications in different areas of a SIC network are independent of one another, so that, unlike current bus topology and star topology, there is no fundamental limit on the size or extent of a SIC network. Each SIC can optionally be connected to one or more data terminals, computers, telephones, sensors, actuators, etc., to facilitate interconnectivity among such devices. Networks according to the present invention can be configured for a variety of applications, including a local telephone system, remote computer bus extender, multiplexers, PABX/PBX functionality, security systems, and local broadcasting services. The network can use dedicated wiring, as well as existing wiring as the in-house telephone or electrical wiring.
