摘要:
An automated banking machine is operative to cause financial transfers responsive at least in part to data read from data bearing records. The automated banking machine includes a card reader that is operative to read card data from user cards corresponding to financial accounts. The automated banking machine is operative to cause a determination to be made that read card data corresponds to stored data for an account authorized to carry out transactions that transfer and/or allocate funds between accounts. The automated banking machine is further operative to provide users with a receipt for transactions conducted. The automated banking machine is operative to cause the value of cash dispensed or received to be assessed or credited to the financial accounts corresponding to card data.

A method and system for simulation of a communications bus. A simulation arrangement is configured with a behavioral agent and an application agent coupled to the bus. Bus commands are selectively loaded in the behavioral and application agent in accordance with a desired simulation sequence. The behavioral agent is configurable with phase behavior instructions that specify assertion and deassertion times for selected signals by the behavioral agent. Compliant and non-compliant bus behavior can be simulated with the phase behavior instructions.

Backside particle contamination of semiconductor wafers subjected to chemical vapor deposition is significantly reduced by optimizing various process parameters, alone or in combination. A high quality oxide seasoning layer is deposited to improve adhesion and trapping of contaminants remaining after a prior chamber cleaning step. Second, wafer pre-heating reduces thermal stress on the wafer during physical contact between the wafer and heater. Third, the duration of the gas stabilization flow of thermally reactive process gas species prior to CVD reaction is reduced, thereby preventing side products produced during this stabilization flow from affecting the wafer backside. Fourth, the wafer heater is redesigned to minimize physical contact between the heater surface and the wafer backside. Redesign of the wafer heater may include providing only a few, small projections from the top wafer surface, and also may include providing a continuous circumferential rim supporting the edge of the wafer to interfere with the flow of process gases to the wafer backside during processing.

A method and device for removing film from a substrate are provided that take advantage of a remote plasma source to etch away undesired portions of films, such as dielectric films formed on a substrate. To that end, the method includes forming a plasma remotely with respect to the process chamber, from which a flow is created that is directed toward the substrate. The substrate is of a type having opposed major surfaces with a peripheral surface extending therebetween. A film, such as a dielectric film, is disposed on one of the opposed major surfaces and on the peripheral surface. The opposed major surface having the film thereon is shielded from the flow of reactive radicals while the peripheral surface is left exposed. In this fashion, the flow is maintained for a sufficient amount of time to remove film present on the peripheral surface.

A method and system for demonstrating simulation of a communications bus. In various embodiments, methods and systems are described which support recording a simulation of a system having a communications bus and playback of the recorded simulation. Bus signal vectors are recorded by recorder logic during the simulation, and player logic reads the recorded signal vectors and provides the appropriate bus signals at the appropriate times during playback of the simulation.

A multiple aperture ultrasound imaging system may be configured to store raw, un-beamformed echo data. Stored echo data may be retrieved and re-beamformed using modified parameters in order to enhance the image or to reveal information that was not visible or not discernible in an original image. Raw echo data may also be transmitted over a network and beamformed by a remote device that is not physically proximate to the probe performing imaging. Such systems may allow physicians or other practitioners to manipulate echo data as though they were imaging the patient directly, even without the patient being present. Many unique diagnostic opportunities are made possible by such systems and methods.
