13 Nov 1998TL;DR: An audio system for playing recordings of audio programming includes a relatively large display device on which contextual information about the audio programming may be displayed as mentioned in this paper, and the contextual information is recorded on the same recording medium as audio programming and may include any textual information or graphic images related to audio programming or the artists who produced it.
Abstract: An audio system for playing recordings of audio programming includes a relatively large display device on which contextual information about the audio programming may be displayed. The contextual information is recorded on the same recording medium as the audio programming and may include any textual information or graphic images related to the audio programming or the artists who produced it. Preferably, the audio system is a personal, portable audio system which is battery-operated and which reads mini-discs.

13 Dec 2002TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a system for coexistence of multiple conditional access encryption systems associated with multiple manufacturer's set-top boxes within a single system, using PID mapping techniques to distinguish between multiple encryptions.
Abstract: An encryption arrangement for multiple encryption programs. A system according to embodiments of the present invention multiple encrypts only a portion of the data required for full presentation of a television program to permit coexistence of multiple conditional access encryption systems (40, 140) associated with multiple manufacturer's set-top boxes (36, 136) within a single system. PID mapping techniques are used to distinguish between multiple encryptions. By only encrypting a portion of the program, dramatically less bandwidth is consumed than the alternative of multiple encryption of all program data, thus permitting a larger number of programs to be carried over the same bandwidth while permitting coexistence of multiple conditional access systems in a single cable television system (32).

13 Sep 2004TL;DR: A dynamic voltage and frequency management (DVFM) scheme with leakage power compensation effect is introduced in a microprocessor with 128-bit wideband 64-Mb embedded DRAM, achieving 82% power reduction in personal information management scheduler application and 40% power reduced in MPEG4 movie playback.
Abstract: High-performance and low-power microprocessors are key to PDA applications. A dynamic voltage and frequency management (DVFM) scheme with leakage power compensation effect is introduced in a microprocessor with 128-bit wideband 64-Mb embedded DRAM. The DVFM scheme autonomously controls clock frequency from 8 to 123 MHz in steps of 0.5 MHz and also adaptively controls supply voltage from 0.9 to 1.6 V in steps of 5 mV, achieving 82% power reduction in personal information management scheduler application and 40% power reduction in MPEG4 movie playback. This low-power embedded microprocessor, fabricated with 0.18-/spl mu/m CMOS embedded DRAM technology, enables high-performance operations such as audio and video applications. As process technology shrinks, this adaptive leakage power compensation scheme will become more important in realizing high-performance and low-power mobile consumer applications.

15 Sep 2006TL;DR: In this article, a column analog-to-digital converter having a voltage comparator and a counter is arranged for each a vertical signal line, where the comparator compares a pixel signal inputted via the vertical signal lines at each row control signal line with a reference voltage, and stores a count at the end of the comparison.
Abstract: A column analog-to-digital converter having a voltage comparator and a counter is arranged for each a vertical signal line. The voltage comparator compares a pixel signal inputted via the vertical signal line at each row control signal line with a reference voltage, thereby generating a pulse signal having a length in time axis corresponding to the magnitude of a reset component and a signal component. The counter counts a clock to measure the width of the pulse signal until the end of the comparison operation of the comparator, and stores a count at the end of the comparison. A communication and timing controller controls the voltage comparator and the counter so that, in a first process, the voltage comparator performs a comparison operation on a reset component with the counter performing a down-counting operation, and so that, in a second process, the voltage controller performs the comparison operation on a signal component with the counter performing an up-counting operation.
