A differential line driver includes a plurality of driver cells. Control logic outputs positive and negative control signals to the driver cells so as to match a combined output impedance of the driver cells at (Vop, Von). Each driver cell includes an input Vip and an input Vin, an output Vop and an output Von, a first PMOS transistor and a first NMOS transistor having gates driven by the input Vip, and a second PMOS transistor and a second NMOS transistor having gates driven by the input Vin. A source of the first PMOS transistor is connected to a source of the second PMOS transistor. A source of the first NMOS transistor is connected to a source of the second NMOS transistor. First and second resistors are connected in series between the first PMOS transistor and the first NMOS transistor, and connected together at Von. Third and fourth resistors are connected in series between the second PMOS transistor and the second NMOS transistor, and connected together at Vop. A first output switch is driven by a corresponding positive control signal and connected between a supply voltage and the sources of the first and second PMOS transistors. A second output switch driven by a corresponding negative control signal and connected between a ground and the sources of the first and second PMOS transistors.
Abstract:
A method and a system for implementing a multi-way game are disclosed, wherein a combination of a learning software and a game software is used, and the user can still perform the game playing procedure. The present invention first divides the game software into a number of game stages, according to the difficulty level or the procedure property of the game software. Then, a source weight for each of a number of game sources needed by each of the game stages is determined, so that a game evaluating module is set up. According to the difficulty level and content of the learning software, a learning weight is respectively determined, so that a learning evaluating module is set up. Next, a related database is set up according to the source weight, the learning evaluating weight, and a transformation function, so that the source weight and the learning evaluating weight can be exchanged to each other. Further still, in each game progress, the user can select an operation on the game software or the learning software, so as to control the game progress. The present invention can provide for the user a more interesting and entertaining learning method by integrating the educational process into the game manner.
Abstract:
An apparatus detects the presence or absence of a semiconductor device. The apparatus includes a wire bonding machine to form a connection with the semiconductor device, and a camera to form an image of a position of the semiconductor device. A processor controls the wire bonding machine and transforms the image to pixel data. Additionally, the processor converts the pixel data to discrimination data to indicate whether the semiconductor device is present. The processor controls the wire bonding machine in accordance with the presence or the absence of the semiconductor device.
