    Abstract: Apparatus for measuring voltage across an isolation barrier. The apparatus includes a voltage input and a voltage output and an opto-isolator provided between the voltage input and voltage output. Processing means are provided at the voltage output to measure and/or monitor pulse width. A Circuit arrangement including two transistors and two resistors is provided to allow a substantially constant current to flow through the opto-isolator.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for optimising signal reception for a broadcast data receiver. Broadcast Data Receivers are used to receive digital data transmitted from a remote location, process the same and then generate video, audio and auxiliary services. However the Broadcast data receiver is typically located in a household and can be susceptible to general and/or local conditions which affect the reception of the data signals at different frequencies. The present invention provides a method for optimising the signal reception at the broadcast data receiver location by allowing the analysis of amplitude gain control levels of the broadcast data receiver and then selecting the amplitude gain control levels and/or other levels which optimise the quality of the received signal at each frequency.

    Abstract: The invention to which this application relates is to improvements in electronic programme guides (EPG) which are service provided, in digital broadcast data television systems, to users of the system to indicate to the user the programmes available for selection at the instant of viewing or in the future. The invention provides additional useful and practical information relating to a user selected programme in the form of video and/or audio and/or auxiliary information via an on-screen display.
