Abstract:
A paper detecting device includes a paper contact arm, one side of which contacts a surface of a sheet of paper and the other side is connected to a rotating member. A sensor unit senses the rotation of the paper contact arm. An elastic member elastically biases the paper contact arm in the direction in which the paper contact arm contacts the sheet of paper. A contact force regulating unit is installed to generate a rotational force in the direction opposite to the direction of an elastic force by the elastic member. Accordingly, because the paper contact arm is returned to its initial position by the elastic member, paper jams are substantially prevented. The contact force regulating unit regulates the paper contact force within a predetermined range to avoid damage and contamination of a sheet of paper. The simple structure of the paper detecting device improves mass-production thereof.

The provided system for controlling the horizontal size of a monitor screen includes a processor, a driving circuit, and a microcomputer. Here, the processor generates a calibration signal to control the horizontal size of a monitor screen, in response to predetermined control signals.

Accordingly, the provided processor and system for controlling the horizontal size of the monitor screen control the horizontal size of the monitor screen without being affected by microcomputer generated noise.
Abstract:
A circuit and a method for controlling a delay of a dynamic focus signal are provided. The delay control circuit includes a pulse center detecting circuit, a first delay control signal generating circuit, and a selection circuit. The pulse center detecting circuit generates a center detecting signal that detects a pulse center of a first pulse signal. The first delay control signal generating circuit generates a first delay control signal having a first logic level or a second logic level depending on the result of a comparison of a first comparative signal level generated in a form of a first degree function in response to the first pulse signal with a predetermined second comparative signal level. The selection circuit selects one of the center detecting signal and the first delay control signal in response to a predetermined selection signal and generates the selected signal as a second delay control signal that controls an amount of delay time of the dynamic focus signal. The delay control circuit further includes a digital-to-analog converter that generates the second comparative signal. A point at which the first delay control signal is generated is controlled in response to changes of the second comparative signal level. In the circuit and method for controlling a delay of a dynamic focus signal, an amount of delay time in the process where a dynamic focus signal is amplified in a CRT monitor is controlled.

A micro-lens built-in vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL). The micro-lens built-in VSEL includes a VCSEL portion emitting a laser beam in a direction in which semiconductor material layers are stacked; a micro-lens formed of a material capable of transmitting the laser beam emitted from the VCSEL portion; and an adjusting portion located between the VCSEL portion and the micro-lens adjusting a distance between the micro-lens and the VCSEL portion. When constructing an optical system with the VCSEL including the VCSEL portion, the adjusting portion, and the micro-lens, there is no need for a separate condensing lens and focusing position adjusting element. In addition, optical alignment structure is simple with increased freedom in arranging elements, and the number of parts required is sharply reduced.
