An axial flow turbine for generating electricity in low-head environments comprises a runner supported by guide vanes that are curved or contoured to direct flowing water onto fixed turbine blades. The axial flow turbine has a housing that provides an outer draft tube. A second inner draft tube is supported within the outer draft. The axial flow turbine may have a bulb or pit-type housing at the intake chamber for housing a direct-drive variable-speed permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) and power converter system The axial flow turbine may be installed as a single modular unit in low head environments.

A Class IV Partial Response Maximum Likelihood data channel for analog signal processing of a disk drive signal in tracking mode includes a signal error generating circuit for "folding" the analog disk drive signal around the three PR-IV target values of +1, -1 and 0. Using the smaller error signal rather than the larger analog disk drive signal by which the disk drive signal deviates from the target values results in significant power saving with no reduction in electronic signal to noise ratio. An integrated error generating circuit generates both a gain error signal and a timing error signal from the folded error signal for feedback control of the data channel variable gain amplifier and variable clock oscillator. Shared processing of the timing and gain error signals results in power savings and simpler circuitry.

A high speed differential analog to digital converter (ADC) is provided. The high speed differential ADC includes a driver section, a comparator section and a decoder section. The driver section includes a pair of series connected resistor ladders. A positive phase and negative phase emitter follower transistor pair is connected to the pair of series connected resistor ladders. The positive phase and negative phase emitter follower transistor has a collector connected to a supply voltage and has an emitter coupled to a respective one of the pair of series connected resistor ladders. A respective positive phase and negative phase AC current source drives the base of the respective positive phase and negative phase emitter follower transistor. A reference DC current source is coupled to the base of the positive phase and negative phase emitter follower transistors for determining a range of the ADC. A current source transistor pair biases the emitter follower transistor pair. A first transistor of the current source transistor pair supplies current to the positive phase emitter follower transistor and a second transistor of the current source transistor pair supplies current to the negative phase emitter follower transistor. The first transistor has a control node capacitively coupled to the emitter of the negative phase emitter follower transistor and the second transistor having a control node capacitively coupled to the emitter of the positive phase emitter follower transistor.

Undercarriage lights are positioned under a truck adjacent to parts of the truck requiring regular visual safety inspections to light up the parts. A control module operates the lights in coordination with an ignition switch, a manual switch outside the truck, a timer, a low light sensor, and an indicator light.

A multicolored indicator part and cover part are attached to a truck brake slack adjuster and S cam shaft. Relative motion of the brake slack adjuster and the S cam shaft causes relative motion of the two parts to reveal the colors on the indicator part. Good, warning, and danger colors are provided in highly reflective surfaces seen in a walk around inspection of a truck.

A high speed differential analog to digital converter (ADC) is provided. The high speed differential ADC includes a driver section, a comparator section and a decoder section. The driver section includes a pair of series connected resistor ladders with a positive phase voltage source connected at the top and bottom of one of the pair of series connected resistor ladders and a negative phase voltage source connected at the top and bottom of the other one of the pair of series connected resistor ladders; both the positive phase voltage source and the negative phase voltage source including a predetermined first DC voltage value. At least one additional positive phase voltage source is connected to the one of the pair of series connected resistor ladders and at least one additional negative phase voltage source is connected to the other one of the pair of series connected resistor ladders. The additional positive phase and negative phase voltage sources include a predetermined second DC voltage value.
