    Abstract: A system and method for non-linearity compensating interferometer position data includes receiving a plurality of groups of digital position values. A first group of the digital position values are digitally processed to generate a plurality of data values. The plurality of data values are digitally processed to generate at least one quasi-static non-linearity parameter. A second group of the digital position values are compensated based on the at least one non-linearity parameter.

    Abstract: A feed forward apparatus and method discipline a clock signal by a reference signal in digital telecommunication networks. A synthesizer correction term within the feed forward apparatus and method includes a frequency correction term so that when one frequency correction term is selected in place of another frequency correction term the phase of the clock signal remains free from extraneous frequency or phase variations during the transition between frequency correction terms. Alternatively, the synthesizer correction term includes a phase correction term so that phase coherence between the reference signal and the clock signal results.

    Abstract: A master and a slave digital frequency synthesizer are phase-locked such that the master synthesizer is always selected to minimize the phase hits which occur when switching the master to be a slave and vice versa. The switching rearrangement is done automatically and rapidly in the event of failure of the master frequency synthesizer.

    Abstract: A circuit for time stamping event signals, e.g. zero-crossings, using coarse and fine timers. The fine timer is a circuit section which subdivides a period from a phase-locked ring-oscillator into 2N subparts. An event signal is timed by latching a digital representation of a particular subpart. The digital representation of the subpart is an N-bit dual thermometer code which uniquely identifies each subpart with each adjacent subpart differing by only one bit. The subparts are made finer in time quantization than the propagation delay of one active element in the ring oscillator by the use of linear combiner elements. The dual thermometer code, encoded post-latching into a binary code, forms the "fine" timing part of a binary word representation of the event time. The event also latches the count states of a pair of lead-lag counters in a master-slave configuration counting ring oscillator periods. These counters change states respectively before and after the dual thermometer code turn-overs. Only one reading is chosen for recording as determined by the most significant bit of the fine code. The choice will always find an accurate and stable reading, and reject erroneous readings resulting from reading a counter in transition. The chosen counter reading, encoded to binary, forms the coarse timer for the binary word representation of the event time. The coarse and fine binary words are butt-joinable to form the complete binary timing representation without further arithmetic processing.

    Abstract: A method of sampling accurately the instantaneous content of a high speed counter without interrupting the counting process is provided. The method is applicable even when the higher order digits of the counter are constructed by slower switching circuits configured in either a synchronous or ripple-through arrangement. The switching and carry propagation times of these higher order counters need not be shorter than the time between successive events being counted. Sampling of the contents may be made repeatedly in the interim without affecting the totality of the final count.
