Abstract:
A bus architecture for the application of data transmission between distinct integrated circuits. The bus architecture includes at least one transmission line connecting with I/O pin of ICs for transmitting data. In a middle point of the transmission line, there is a middle resistor with a resistance value preferably equal to the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. In addition, there are internal pull-up resistors within the ICs, which has a first end coupled to the I/O pin and a second end coupled to the voltage source. Each pull-up resistor has a resistance value higher than the characteristic impedance of the transmission line, for example, 2 or 3 times of the characteristic impedance, for suppressing the rising edge ringback.
Abstract:
A process for producing an alumina material with high strength is disclosed. The process for producing an alumina material includes the steps of (a) providing a solution containing a dispersing agent, (b) mixing a .theta.-alumina powder and an .alpha.-alumina powder with the solution to form a slurry, (c) filtering the slurry to form a green part, (d) drying the green part, and (e) densifying the dried green part to form the alumina material.
