    摘要: A packet switch includes a multiple of bidirectional ports that are each connected by dedicated signal paths to a multiple of memory subsystems that in turn are connected to shared memory within the switch. The signal path from each port carries a fragment of a data stream between the port and each memory subsystem. The ports send and receive data stream fragments in parallel from the memory subsystems. This parallel action reduces the bandwidth required of a memory subsystem by dividing the port's data stream among the multiple memory subsystems. In storing data for forwarding to another port, each memory subsystem selects on a time division basis in parallel the data stream fragments from the same port and stores them in memory. In retrieving data from memory for a port, each memory subsystem selects on a time division basis in parallel the same port to receive the data stream fragments read from memory. The bit width of the signal paths between the ports and memory subsystems is reduced by sending smaller, individual data stream fragments between ports and memory subsystems and sending larger, aggregate data stream fragments between memory subsystems and memory. Within each memory subsystem are modules that combine individual data stream fragments into aggregate data stream fragments for storage in memory and modules that split aggregate data stream fragments read from memory into individual data stream fragments for transmission to ports.

    摘要: A precision belt hole sensor and associated conditioning circuitry provides precise trigger signals that enable synchronous printing in a color printer. An image bar recording system, which, in a preferred embodiment, utilizes a plurality of LED image bars, forms a plurality of latent images on a moving photoreceptor which may subsequently be developed in different colors. A pair of sensors associated with each printbar views illuminated pixels at the end of a printbar, through a pair of oppositely aligned photoreceptor holes. The signals detected by the sensor are amplified and processed to provide inputs to a comparitor circuit which generates an output signal at a time which precisely defines the passage of the trailing edge of the hole, past the sensors. The signal from the comparitor is used to accomplish skew registration of the printbar and to provide sync signals to enable precise formation of the leading edge of the associated image frame.

    摘要: The phosphor light output of a fluorescent lamp is controlled and optimized. The phosphor light output of the lamp corresponds to a particular level of either the vapor mercury or rare fill gas contained within the lamp envelope. This gas emission level is initially determined for a given system; a monitoring circuit thereafter detects any deviation from this level, generates a signal and sends it to a controller. The controller adjusts the operation of a mercury cold spot temperature-regulating device causing the cold spot temperature to increase or decrease until the optimum temperature and hence lamp phosphor light output is reestablished.

    摘要: A light emitting diode based exposure station (and electrophotographic marking machines that use such exposure stations) that requires only a small amount of photoreceptor waterfront (space). The small waterfront requirement is achieved using a gradient index lens array that transmits focused light onto the photoreceptor with a total conjugate that is sufficient to permit the widest part of the light emitting diode based exposure station to be displaced sufficiently far from the photoreceptor that other printing machine devices can be disposed between the widest part of the exposure station and the photoreceptor. The increased total conjugate is achieved using a gradient index lens array having longer rods and/or wider rods.

    摘要: An apparatus for compensating LED printbars, and printers which use LED printbars, for aging. Changes in the slopes of the forward voltage drop verses forward current characteristics (the I-V characteristics) of the LEDs of the LED printbar are determined. The drive currents of the LEDs are then changed as a function of the changes in the slopes so as to compensate for changes in the LED light outputs.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a color printer which forms multiple latent images on the surface of a belt type photoreceptor in a single pass. The invention enables the placement of imaging stations on both a tensioned and non-tensioned side of the belt. On the non-tensioned, an asynchronous line at a time printer such as an LED print bar is used to form the latent image in response to video data signals. On the tensioned side of the belt, either synchronous type imagers, such as laser ROSs or asynchronous imagers such as LED print bars may be located to form the latent image. The leading edges of each image frame are registered according to known methods. Each scan line within an image frame is registered by comparing the belt speed beneath each of the imagers and generating a correction signal to the asynchronous print bar. Since the print bar operates asynchronously, it is possible to vary the pulsed line write time so as to register each of the scan lines formed by the print bar with the scan line being formed by the imagers at the tensioned side of the belt.

    摘要: An exposure control system for a document copier is enabled by positioning a segmented variable reflectance mirror along the optical imaging path. The mirror segments incorporate a material whose transmission changes in response to applied voltage signals, the preferred material being an electrochromic material. In a first embodiment a white reference strip along the platen surface is exposed and the charge levels along discrete areas of the photoreceptor are measured by an electrometer with a plurality of probe segments. Outputs from each probe segment are processed in a control circuit and a signal sent to an appropriate mirror segment to increase or decrease reflectance to enable a corresponding decrease or increase, respectively, of the charge level, at the corresponding discrete areas of the photoreceptor illuminated by the mirror segments.

It involves the correlation of mercury vapor pressure within the lamp (which is dependent upon the temperature of liquid mercury within the lamp) with the magnitude and polarity orientation of the DC current applied to the lamp, and an optimization of these parameters along with lamp tube diameter.
