摘要:
A prediction module includes a computation control unit and first to sixth processing units. The computation control unit arranges the pixels of a reference block outputted by a frame buffer appropriately according to data decoded by an entropy decoder into first and second pixel signals, and outputs the same to the first to sixth processing units in units of cycles. The processing units are controlled by the computation control unit to respectively complete corresponding computations in a cycle, and to use the computation results as values of first to sixth output signals to be correspondingly outputted in a next cycle. The computation control unit receives the first to sixth output signals, and computes the output signals so as to obtain pixel values of a macroblock to be predicted.

A method for simulating, fabricating, or duplicating an oil painting is provided. The oil painting digital image information is acquired by scanning or capturing an oil painting surface image, and/or digitally simulating or rendering an oil painting surface image. A white paint is daubed on a base layer. A stereoscopic oil relief model, forming a stereoscopic oil relief layer, is acquired by topographically scanning the oil painting surface in three dimensions, and simulated or duplicated onto the base layer with a white or colorless transparent composite material. An image receiving layer is daubed on the stereoscopic oil relief layer. The oil image information, forming a printed oil painting surface image, is output and printed onto the image receiving layer with an inkjet printer. A transparent resin layer is daubed on the printed oil painting surface image, protecting the printed oil painting surface image with stereoscopic oil relief layer.

A system and method for observing threshold voltage variations are provided. A ring oscillator circuit comprises a plurality of inverters arranged in a sequential loop, a plurality of test circuits having devices under test, each coupled between a respective one of the inverters and a power supply. Each test circuit has a bypass field effect transistor (FET) having a first channel coupled between the power supply and a respective one of the inverters responsive to an individual enable signal, and a FET device under test having a second channel arranged in parallel to the first channel. A method is described for determining the threshold voltage of the device under test by disabling, for one of the inverters in the ring oscillator, the first FET device such that the device under test is coupled between the power supply and the respective inverter and affects the operating frequency of the ring oscillator.

A method for dummy metal and dummy via insertion is provided. In one embodiment, dummy metals are inserted using a place and route tool, where the place and route tool has timing-awareness. Then, dummy vias arrays are inserted inside an overlap area of dummy metals using a design-rule-checking utility. Fine-grained dummy vias arrays are inserted in available space far away from main patterns. The dummy-patterns resulting from the inserted dummy vias are compressed using the design-rule-checking utility to reduce the size of a graphic data system file generated from the integrated circuit design. The dummy vias can be inserted with relaxed via spacing rules. The dummy metals are inserted with a constant line-end spacing between them for better process control and the maximum length of the dummy metal can be limited for smaller coupling effects. The dummy vias can have various sizes and a square or rectangular shape.

An aerosol size-selective impactor for reducing particle bounce includes a main structure, a buffering layer, and a dehydration preventing layer. This main structure with an inlet and an outlet has a central channel and a receiving cavity. There are many nozzles in the inlet. The buffering layer is filled in the receiving cavity. The dehydration preventing layer is coated on the buffering layer for reducing the dehydration of water contained in the buffering layer. So, this invention utilizes the design of the receiving cavity to receive both layers. Its accuracy is high. Its sampling time lasts longer. It can endure vibrations. This invention can yield the particle bounce effect with lower cost. And, its application scope is wide.

The invention involves an engine that the cylinder block contains a coupled piston formed by a main piston, an external piston. The external piston is sleeved outside of the main piston and uses the rods on the two sides to connect to the heart-shape groove on the two sides of the crankshaft inside the crankcase at the bottom of the cylinder block. It moves with the main piston in an upward stroke and in a downward stroke. It forms a direct fuel injection device in the cylinder without carburetor. It does not need to add lubricants in the fuels. Besides, the engine has increased compression ratio.

This invention relates to an improvement of two stroke engine in which a sleeve piston is employed to move up and down in the cylinder and to control alternatively the opening and closing of the intake guide and exhaust guide and to prevent the lubricant from exuding out of the crank case in an effort to ensure an environmental-friendly clean exhaust.

A method for removing hard masks on gates in a semiconductor manufacturing process is conducted as follows. First of all, a first gate and a second gate with hard masks are formed on a semiconductor substrate, wherein the second gate is larger than the first gate. The first gate and second gate could be associated with silicon-germanium (SiGe) source and drain regions to form p-type transistors. Next, a photoresist layer is deposited, and an opening of the photoresist layer is formed on the hard mask of the second gate. Then, the photoresist layer on the first and second gates is removed completely by etching back. Because there is no photoresist residue, the hard masks on the first and second gates can be removed completely afterwards.

Circuits and methods for providing a pulsed clock signal for use with pulsed latch circuits are described. A variable pulse generator is coupled to form a pulsed clock output responsive to a control signal and a clock input signal. A feedback loop is provided with a pulse monitor and a pulse control circuit. Samples of the pulsed clock signal are taken by the pulse monitor and an output is formed in the form of a pattern. The pulse control circuit receives the output of the monitor and determines whether it matches a predetermined pattern. Adjustments are made to the control signal to adaptively adjust the pulsed clock signal. The feedback loop may operate continuously. In alternative embodiments the feedback loop may be powered down. Methods for adaptively controlling a pulsed clock signal are disclosed.
