    摘要: A broadband multibit digital radio-frequency (RF) signal is synthesized digitally. to convert the digital signal to a high-power analog signal for RF transmission. Each bit (or cluster of bits) of the digital signal is first separately amplified using a fast switching amplifier with a controlled dc power supply voltage. The DC voltages are weighted to match the significance of the bits, and controlled by a set of calibrated DC reference sources to maintain high precision. The amplified digital signals from the various bits are then combined and passed through an appropriate analog filter to generate the RF signal to be transmitted. Such a signal can exhibit broad bandwidth, high dynamic range, excellent linearity, and low noise. Preferred embodiments of this system can incorporate superconducting electronic elements. For ultimate precision, a set of primary or secondary DC voltage standards can be used to regulate the switching amplifier supply voltages.

    摘要: A circuit for converting an n-bit number to a serial stream of single-bit pulses includes circuitry for generating n different sets of pulses; each set of pulses corresponding to a bit of the n-bit binary number; the number of pulses in a set of pulses corresponding to a bit “j” being equal to 2(j−1) pulses, where “j” is an integer which varies from one (1) for the LSB to n for the MSB. The circuit also includes n switches each switch having an input port, an output port and a control port. Each different bit is applied to the control port of a switch and the set of pulses corresponding to the bit is applied to the control port of that switch. The output ports of the n switches are coupled to a common point for combining the signals at the output ports and producing a serial stream of single-bit pulses at the common point which is equivalent to the n-bit binary number. A shift register capable of storing 2n−1 pulses may be connected to the common point and digital to analog circuitry may be connected to the output of the shift register for producing an analog voltage.

    摘要: A coated article, for example an architectural transparency, including a vehicular transparency, or a reflecting article, as a decorative article. The article has a substrate, e.g., a substantially transparent or substantially opaque substrate. The substrate has an optical coating on it, that is a coating having a thin film of an oxide of a transition metal, the thin film having a thickness corresponding to a constructively interfering function of a wavelength of interest. The optical coating, having a thin film of a transition metal, enhances the reflectivity of some wavelengths of the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum and the reflectivity of other wavelengths of the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
