    摘要: A heat removal system employing fluid circulation and vaporization for transferring heat from a primary heat sink to a secondary heat sink where the heat is dissipated into the surrounding air is disclosed. The present invention comprises a primary heat sink coupled to a secondary heat sink via flexible tubing. The primary heat sink is bonded directly to an electric device such as a semiconductor device. As the electric device heats up and thereby heats up the primary heat sink, a liquid coolant within the primary heat sink transfers excess heat via the tubing to the secondary heat sink where the heat is dissipated. The cooled coolant is then returned to the primary heat sink via the flexible tubing.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for providing dynamic voltage regulation for a system with a fluctuating current demand are disclosed. A first voltage regulator is used for producing regulated output to the system. A control circuit activates a second voltage regulator with faster transient response than the first voltage regulator to help source current when the first voltage regulator is unable to adequately respond to an increase in current demand from the system. The control circuit activates a load element to help sink current at the output of the first voltage regulator when the first voltage regulator is unable to adequately respond to a decrease in current demand from the system.

    摘要: An apparatus and method for decoding four individual audio signals to the extent they are contained in first and second composite signals. The first composite signal contains the first individual audio signal in dominant proportion and two other individual audio signals in subdominant proportions. The second composite signal contains the second individual audio signals in dominant proportion and two other individual audio signals in subdominant proportions. In accordance with the invention there is provided a means for measuring the degree of directional predominance of each of the four individual audio signals. Means responsive to the composite signals are employed to form four partially decoded signals, each of the partially decoded signals including a different one of the individual audio signals in dominant proportion and two other individual audio signals in subdominant proportion. The four partially decoded signals are respectively applied to four output terminals. Further provided is a means responsive to the composite signals for forming four enhancement signals, each of the enhancement signals having a different one of the individual signals as its principal component. Each of the enhancement signals is applied to the particular ones of the output terminals at which its principal component is present in subdominant proportion. Each enhancement signal is applied at a relative phase which is the opposite of said signal present in subdominant proportion and at a level which depends on the measured degree of directional predominance of its principal component. In this manner, a selective cancellation of certain subdominant components is achieved.

    摘要: A multi-phase DC—DC converter having redundant DC—DC phases or modules. If a DC—DC phase fails, such as from a short circuit, it is decoupled from the output of the DC—DC converter. In some embodiments, the other DC—DC phases bear the burden of the extra power output. In other embodiments, additional DC—DC phases are coupled in, in response to the failure.

    摘要: A musical keyboard instrument is disclosed for recording and storing a musical performance and then automatically playing back the performance. As is conventional, a keyboard having a plurality of keys is provided, along with musical tone generators that are associated with the keys. In accordance with the disclosed invention, means are provided for sensing, at a sensing time, those of the keys which are activated. A sequence of frames are generated, each frame including digital information representative of the keys that are activated at a given sensing time. The duration of each frame is a function of the relative locations of the keys activated at a given sensing time, and is therefore a duration which can vary from frame to frame. Each sensing time is determined by the previously completed frame, i.e., when a frame is complete, the statuses of the keys are again sensed so that the next frame can be generated. The sequences of frames are stored on magnetic tape. In a preferred form of the invention, the keys are divided into groups or "ports", and the digital information for each frame includes identification of the ports that have one or more activated keys and identification of the individual keys that are activated within that port. The rationale of this coding scheme is particularly compatible with the physical characteristics and manual dexterity of a human playing a keyboard instrument. The digital information of each frame is encoded in frequency shift keyed form and frequency shift keyed signals are recorded by generating digitally synthesized sinusoidal signals for application to magnetic tape.

    摘要: A device that efficiently transfers heat from a heat source. The device includes a heat sink, the heat sink comprising a thermally conductive base, and a plurality of thermally conductive pin fins coupled to the thermally conductive base. A gas source, such as a blower, proximate to the pin fins, directs a gas, such as ambient air, axially along at least a portion of the pin fins, and then in a direction radial to the pin fins and substantially parallel to the heat source, to transfer heat away from the heat source. The heat transfer device may be utilized in any application that requires efficient removal of heat from a heat source, for example, an electronic device such as an integrated circuit or microprocessor.
