Abstract:
A motor vehicle brake system having a hydraulic cable, via which a wheel brake module can be pressurized by a brake medium using brake pressure from a brake cylinder and to which a low pressure accumulator is connected for temporarily receiving excess brake medium, wherein the low pressure accumulator is connected to the hydraulic cable via a backflow line and a return pump interposed in the return line in order to return temporarily stored brake medium, the return pump being cyclically actuated for adjusting the pump capacity such that an activation occurs within each braking cycle during a portion of pump cycles that corresponds to the pump capacity, is intended to provide particularly high operational safety while also providing a comfortable pedal sensation.
Abstract:
A portable data storage configuration has a card base and a display device, the display device being fixed to the card base. The display device is only partially connected to the card base by the fixed connection. This mounting technique results in that almost no lateral or shear forces act on the display device.
Abstract:
A test configuration for the functional testing of a semiconductor chip is described. The semiconductor chip, which can be subjected to a functional test for the purpose of checking the functionality of the semiconductor chip, is disposed on a support material. The semiconductor chip contains a self-test unit for generating test information and for carrying out the functional test. An energy source serves for providing an electrical energy supply from energy that is fed in contactlessly. The energy source is disposed on the support material and is connected to the semiconductor chip for the purpose of providing an energy supply on the semiconductor chip. The test configuration makes it possible to carry out a contactless functional test and to reduce the test costs by virtue of high parallelism during the functional test of a plurality of semiconductor chips.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a system for testing fast integrated digital circuits, in particular semiconductor modules, such as for example SDRAMs. In order to achieve the necessary chronological precision in the testing even of DDR-SDRAMs, with at the same time the high degree of parallelism of the test system required for mass production, an additional semiconductor circuit module (BOST module) is inserted into the signal path between a standard testing device and the SDRAM to be tested. This additional module is set up so as to multiply the relatively slow clock frequency of the conventional testing device, and to determine the signal sequence for control signals, addresses, and data background with which the SDRAM module is tested, dependent on signals of the testing device and also on register contents, programmed before the test, in the BOST module.
Abstract:
A telescopically extendible focusing hood which improves the viewing of the LCD screen of a digital camera in bright surrounding light. The focusing hood can be fixed to the rear wall of the camera, surrounding the LCD screen. The focusing hood preferably has an anti-reflection-coated enlarging lens or glass disk which covers the entire cross-section of the focusing hood in parallel to the fixing plane. In its extended state, the focusing hood can be used with a single lens in the manner of a 35 mm camera finder. When the enlarging lens is pushed in, the focusing hood can be used with two lenses for assessing the image.
Abstract:
An integrated semiconductor memory device that can be subjected to a memory cell test in order to determine functional and defective memory cells includes addressable normal memory cells, a first redundancy unit having first addressable redundant memory cells and optically programmable switches for replacing an address of a defective normal memory cell by the address of a first redundant memory cell, and a second redundancy unit having second addressable redundant memory cells and electrically programmable switches for replacing an address of a defective normal memory cell by the address of a second redundant memory cell. The second redundancy unit can be connected by the activation of an irreversibly programmable switch, which enables a simplified functional test at the wafer level.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a fusible link configuration in or on integrated circuits, in particular highly integrated memory chips, in which in each case one bank of fusible links (F1, F2, . . . ), together with an evaluation logic unit is configured beside and in association with a memory field segment. The evaluation logic unit is electrically connected to the fusible links (F1, F2, . . . ) and determines whether one or more of the fusible links (F1, F2, . . . ) is severed. One or more banks of the fusible links (F1, F2, . . . ) are divided up into smaller units while restricting the width(s) of the bank or banks. The units are grouped such that at least some of the fusible links (F1, F2, . . . ) are located beside one another transversely with respect to the width direction of the bank.
