Abstract:
System of multi-channel shared resistor-string digital-to-analog converters comprises a time-sharing interpolator converting the multi-channel digital audio input at low sample rate to the multi-channel digital audio output at high sample rate, a time-sharing sigma-delta modulator modulating the multi-channel digital audio input with a long sample wordlength from the interpolator to be a multi-channel digital audio output with a shorter sample wordlength, multi-channel shared resistor-string digital-to-analog converters converting the multi-channel digital audio input to be a multi-channel staircase analog signal output, and one low-order RC filter for each channel further attenuating the out-of-band noise in the analog staircase analog output, especially the high-frequency residue images.
Abstract:
A self-balanced active current bridge for measuring the impedance of an external device or an output current, including an input potential source and operation amplifier connected to the input potential source via a first input terminal of the operation amplifier. A balancing bridge is coupled to a first output terminal and a second output terminal of the operation amplifier. A controlled potential source is coupled to the balancing bridge and used to maintain the balance state of the balancing bridge. A resistance is connected between the balancing bridge and an output terminal of the controlled potential source. Wherein the external device is connected a first node between the balancing bridge and a second input terminal of the operation amplifier. Wherein the controlled potential source is coupled to the balancing bridge to maintain the balance state, thereby constructing the self-balanced active current bridge for measuring the impedance of the external device or the output current by means of measuring the parameters of the resistance.
Abstract:
A shock-absorbing front fork assembly of a motorcycle includes a front fork, a pressure buffering cylinder and a control valve disposed between the front fork and the pressure buffering cylinder and electrically connected with a brake system to control the communication between the front fork and the pressure buffering cylinder according to the operation of the brake system. When the brake system is not actuated, the control valve is open to make the front fork communicate with the pressure buffering cylinder, thereby making the spring supporting force relatively smaller. When the brake system is actuated, the control valve is close to make the front fork not communicate with the pressure buffering cylinder, thereby making the spring supporting force relatively larger. Therefore, the spring supporting force is adjusted by the brake operation, that raises the riding comfort and safety.
Abstract:
A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes providing a substrate including a fin at a surface of the substrate, and forming a fin field-effect transistor (FinFET), which further includes forming a gate stack on the fin; forming a thin spacer on a sidewall of the gate stack; and epitaxially growing a epitaxy region starting from the fin. After the step of epitaxially growing the epitaxy region, a main spacer is formed on an outer edge of the thin spacer. After the step of forming the main spacer, a deep source/drain implantation is performed to form a deep source/drain region for the FinFET.
