摘要： A golf club putter includes a head having an insert including face and base portions that interface with each other and are made of materials with dissimilar moduli of elasticity. The face portion can be a polymer and the base portion can be a metal. The face portion has a front facing surface that strikes the golf ball and an opposing rear surface with a smooth curved or stepped angled profile. The base portion has a front surface that interfaces with the rear surface of the face portion and is curved or stepped similar to the face portion. The front-to-back dimension of the face portion is thinnest at the center of the club head, and its thickness progressively increases as the curve of the rear surface of the face portion moves away from the club head center towards the heel and toe of the club head.

摘要： An automatic velocity calibrator for a head positioning servo system in a magnetic disk drive performs a velocity calibration in a single pass over the magnetic disks by measuring actuator velocity and adjusting the gain of the velocity transducer in a series of successive approximations. Velocity is determined by turning a timer on in response to a track crossing and turning the timer off after at least two successive track crossings have been detected. A plurality of velocity measurements are stored and averaged. The average velocity is compared to a constant velocity command and an 8-bit latch is incremented or decremented in response to this comparison. A digital to analog converter produces a reference for an automatic gain control amplifier in the servo system which in turn adjusts the velocity transducer gain.

摘要： The present invention includes an integrated circuit that can use a high-frequency timing reference generator from a high-speed serial interface to provide the clocking and timing requirements for the integrated circuit. The timing mechanism in the present invention obviates the need for phase locked loop (PLL) macrocells to provide timing reference and timing signals in the IC. The ICs of the present invention are preferably used as disk drive integrated circuits that include DSP, memory, data path controllers, data interfaces, custom macrocells, and DSP peripherals. The high-speed serial interface is preferably a Serial ATA (SATA), Universal Serial Bus (USB), Fiber Channel, or Serial Attached SCSI (SAS), among others. The present invention also includes a method of generating a timing reference signal in a IC that includes generating a high-frequency signal with the high-speed timing reference generator of a high-speed serial interface, then using a initial divider to generate a mid-frequency timing reference signal from the high-frequency timing reference signal, and then using a final divider to generate a final timing reference signal from the mid-frequency timing reference signal. In the present method, timing reference signals generated from a phase locked loop (PLL) macrocell are not required.

摘要： A power driver for driving a signal on a load using voltage-mode driver. A system processor generates commands indicating a programmed drive signal desired from the voltage-mode driver. A VBEMF compensator determines a compensated command to compensate for the back electromotive force voltage produced by the load. The compensated commands are coupled to the voltage-mode driver, such that the voltage-mode driver generates a voltage output based upon the compensated command.

摘要： A power driver for driving a signal on a load using voltage-mode driver. A system processor generates commands indicating a programmed drive signal desired from the voltage-mode driver. A lead compensator determines a compensated command to compensate for an admittance function of the load. The compensated commands are coupled to the voltage-mode driver, such that the voltage-mode driver generates a voltage output based upon the compensated command.

摘要： An electrostatic field sensor configuration and supporting signal processing electronics provides a wider bandwidth than prior art sensors, thus enabling the present sensor to replace three prior art instruments in the application of measuring atmospheric electricity. The quadrature, differential characteristics of the present sensor also provide suppression of unwanted disturbances and more accurate electrostatic field measurements. Besides application in the geophysical instrument known as a field mill, the present sensor may be employed in any system for measuring quasi-static and rapidly changing electrostatic fields.

摘要： The invention provides a high-speed interface that transfers servo position data from the read channel integrated circuit to the drive control integrated circuit or another integrated circuit. The high-speed interface eliminates the need for analog pins on the integrated circuits to lower the cost of the system. The high-speed interface also eliminates the use of the serial interface to transfer the servo position data which speeds up the data transfer. Examples of servo position data include high-resolution servo position data and coarse-resolution servo position data. A read channel integrated circuit transfers the user data and the high-resolution servo position data to a data bus, such as an NRZ bus. The data bus transfers the user data and the high-resolution servo position data to another integrated circuit, such as a drive control integrated circuit. The other integrated circuit receives the user data and the high-resolution servo position data from the data bus. The coarse-resolution servo position data can also be transferred over the data bus.
