摘要： A method and apparatus are disclosed for measuring atmospheric pressure in conjunction with an air-fuel ratio sensor of the type comprising a concentration cell with atmospheric air and exhaust electrodes on opposite sides of a solid-state electrolyte having oxygen ion conductivity. During an atmospheric pressure measuring cycle, oxygen ions are pumped from the atmospheric air electrode to the exhaust electrode, in a quantity which is either predetermined at a fixed value, or is sufficient to bring the cell to an equilibrium state. Atmospheric pressure is then calculated from measured emf of the cell, using an experimentally derived functional relationship. In a second embodiment, ions are pumped until a predetermined change of the concentration cell emf is achieved, and atmospheric pressure is determined based on the amount of time required to achieve such change. The atmospheric pressure measuring mode is operated on a time shared basis with the air-fuel ration detection mode.

摘要： An object of the present invention is to provide an image processing apparatus and a computer program which detects a defect such as a scum at high speed and with high precision. In order to accomplish the above-described object, the present invention proposes an image processing apparatus and a computer program which acquires image data, and detects edge branch points from this image data. Here, at each of the edge branch points, an edge associated therewith branches off in at least three or more directions. According to this configuration, it becomes possible to detect a defect such as a scum without utilizing the reference-pattern image. As a consequence, it becomes possible to detect the scum at high speed and with high precision.

摘要： A transmitter suppresses a peak level of a multi-carrier signal produced by synthesizing a plurality of carrier signals. Specifically, a peak level suppression signal for a multi-carrier signal is generated. The generated peak level suppression signal is adjusted in accordance with the levels of respective carriers constituting the multi-carrier signal. And, the adjusted peak level suppression signal for each carrier is subtracted from an input signal, thereby generating a multi-carrier signal whose peak level is suppressed.

摘要： Systems and methods using imaged device patterns to measure overlay between different layers in a semiconductor manufacturing process, such as a double-patterning process. Images of pattern features are acquired by scanning electron microscopy. The position of a patterning layer is determined using positions of pattern features for the patterning layer in the images. A relative position of each patterning layer with respect to other pattern features or patterning layers is determined in vector form based on the determined pattern positions. Overlay error is determined based on a comparison of the relative position with reference values from design or simulation. Overlay can be measured with high precision and accuracy by utilizing pattern symmetry.
