Abstract: An active matrix array device, such as an AMLCD, has an array of matrix elements (10) addressed via sets of address conductors (14, 16). An address circuit (35) connected to one set (16) includes a multiplexing circuit (31) integrated on the same substrate (25) as the matrix elements and the address conductors of the one set are organised in groups with each conductor in a group being associated with a respective and different one of a plurality of signal bus lines (33) in the multiplexer circuit. Each signal bus line (33) is connected to a respective signal processing circuit (42), e.g. a DAC in the case of an AMLCD, also integrated on the substrate as respective circuit blocks. To avoid problems in use, for example caused by variations in the performance of these signal processing circuits, the arrangement of couplings with the bus lines of the address conductors in adjacent groups is mirrored about the boundary between the groups.

Abstract: A radio communication system has a random access channel for the transmission of data (214) from a secondary station to a primary station. Such a channel is intended for use by secondary stations having data (214) to transmit to a primary station while not actually engaged in a call. By enabling access requests (202) to be transmitted with a greater range of possible signatures, a much greater number of degrees of freedom is available to a secondary station requesting access to a random access channel. This enables significantly improved efficiency of resource allocation by increasing the amount of information transmitted to the primary station by the access request (202).

Abstract: A method of producing a top gate thin-film transistor in which an insulated gate structure (14) is formed over an amorphous silicon layer with upper gate conductor (16) directly over the gate insulator layers. The gate conductor is patterned to be narrower than a spacing to be provided between source and drain electrode contacts. Laser annealing of areas of the amorphous silicon layer (12) not shielded by the gate conductor (16) is carried out to form polysilicon portions. The gate insulator layers are formed as a gate insulator layer (14a,14b) of first refractive index, and an overlying surface insulator layer (14c) of second, lower, refractive index. The overlying surface insulator layer has been found to reduce fluctuations in the reflectance of the structure in dependence upon the specific thicknesses of the gate insulator layers. Therefore, the tolerances for the thicknesses of the gate insulator layers can be reduced whilst maintaining control of the laser annealing process.

Abstract: An image sensor (39) comprises a plurality of pixels (10), each pixel comprising a light sensor element (12), wherein a sensor voltage across the element varying depending on the light incident on the element. First and second transistors (14,16) are connected in series between voltage supply lines (18,20). A gate voltage (Vg1) on the first transistor is dependent upon the sensor voltage so that the current flowing through the first transistor (14) is a function of the sensor voltage. The gate voltage (Vg2) of the second transistor is supplied by a feedback circuit (22,24,26) which provides that the current through the first and second transistors (14,16) is substantially equal. The output of the pixel (10) is the gate voltage (Vg2) of the second transistor (16). The image sensor design of the invention avoids the need for storage capacitors to provide pixel gain.

Abstract: In a garment 10, 12 incorporating an electronic device such as a radio 16, a variable of the device, such as volume, is varied by the use of two cords 22, 24, the electrical resistance of each cord decreasing in accordance with an increase in tension applied to the cord; pulling one cord increases the volume of the radio and pulling the other cord decreases the volume. The stronger the pull, the faster the change in volume. The ends of the cords lie outside the garment and carry toggles 26, 28 for easy operation by a gloved hand. Alternatively the ends of the cord outside the garment may be connected to opposite ends of a manual grip 48.
