Abstract: An active cooling arrangement for a removable circuit board (10) installed within a host computer, where the board has one or more components (31, 32) generating excessive heat, for which a duct defines an air-cooling path which includes the one or more components. The path has a duct (30) with an open side proximate to the circuit board so that the circuit board defines one boundary of the air-cooling path. An inlet (18) is provided for injecting cooled air onto the circuit board and an outlet (19) is provided for ejecting the air. The circuit board and the duct constitute an assembly. A fan or fans (12, 13) may be mounted on the assembly, and located so as to cause airflow along the path from the inlet to the outlet. The duct may have multiple constriction points (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27) near hot locations so that the cross-sectional area of the duct is variable along the air-cooling path, thus adjusting air velocity and heat transfer from components to the air. The duct may also be segmented into airflow regions having separate air-intake and fan arrangements (12, 13). Power may be reveived from the circuit board (29) or from an external power source (37), and the system may be formed from injection molded plastic.

Abstract: A system that permits the plotting of any combination of several colors in one pass. Three differently colored light sources are provided, and thus one, two or three colors may be plotted at the same time. An apparatus is provided for causing relative movement between the scanning head and the substrate along each of the two axes of the substrate. Preferably, the first axis is disposed circumferentially about a cylinder, on which the substrate is situated, the cylinder having a central axis, and the second axis is disposed approximately parallel to the central axis. The system includes deflection means, preferably acousto-optical modulators, for deflecting along a path a portion of each beam of light by an amount dependent upon the frequency of a signal that is present at the deflection means' input. The system permits the plotting of a multicolor proof and the plotting of separates for making printing plates, both the proof and the separates being formed by halftone dots.

Abstract: The invention provides a scanner system that in one embodiment is of the flatbed type and employs first and second cameras that have first and second areas of view respectively of each scan line, such areas being proximate to one another in a common boundary region of each scan line. The cameras are designed so that in forming first and second images respectively of their corresponding areas of view, the center of each image is displaced from the camera's central axis in such a direction that the angle formed at the document between equivalent optical paths from a point in the common boundary region to each of the images is substantially less than the angle resulting in the absence of such displacement. This design permits relatively good alignment of the two camera images in a desktop scanner notwithstanding some variation in height of the document above the platen. Other embodiments provide improvements in lid design, and isolation from vibration and torsional forces.

Abstract: A computer chassis having an improved airflow path along a removable circuit board (11) mounted inside a chassis (10). The removable circuit board has a connector (12) along one edge for connection to a mother board (30). The chassis has a rear panel (14), and the mother board mounted inside the chassis such that the rear edge of the mother board is spaced from the rear panel to define a setback, and an inset access (16) to the removable circuit board such that the inset access is positioned within the space forming the setback. The chassis also has an airflow path (40) along the removable circuit board, over the rear edge of the mother board and across the setback. The airflow path may end with a plurality of vent locations (21, 22) within the setback and in the rear panel proximate to the setback. These vent locations are for receiving air into and ejecting air out of the chassis. The mounting of the mother board may include an interior panel (13) mounted inside the chassis such that the interior panel is parallel to and spaced below the mother board. The interior panel may also be attached to the rear panel in a position transverse to the rear panel. Moreover, the means for providing an inset access to the removable circuit board may include a removable cover plate (20).

Abstract: In standard display systems pixel data are stored in the frame buffer such that all data related to a pixel (both intensity values and non-display data as masks, Fast Clear etc.) are stored in a memory word; consecutive pixels of a line are stored in subsequent memory words. This data arrangement causes several memory accesses to be necessary for operations as drawing etc. on a set of neighbouring pixels. The present invention speeds up such operations by subdividing the display area in (rectangular) blocks, whose pixel data are stored in corresponding blocks of subsequent memory words. For each pixel, display data only are stored in a block, and non-display data are stored elsewhere, so that burst access mode can be used for accessing a set of neighbouring pixel display data in a single operation. The arrangement based on rectangular blocks is particularly advantageous for writing triangles, vectors etc. Each block is preferably stored across interleaved memory banks, that may be accessed in parallel for rendering and display. Dual bank operation (opening two pages at once) can be effected according to a checker-board block allocation, which still improves triangle and vector management. The invention is particularly suitable for SDRAM arrays having a single access port.

Abstract translation: 在标准显示系统中，将像素数据存储在帧缓冲器中，使得与像素（强度值和非显示数据作为掩码，快速清除等）相关的所有数据都存储在存储器字中; 一行的连续像素被存储在随后的存储字中。 该数据排列导致对一组相邻像素上的绘图等操作需要几个存储器访问。 本发明通过将（矩形）块中的显示区域细分，将其像素数据存储在后续存储字的相应块中来加速这种操作。 对于每个像素，仅显示数据被存储在块中，并且非显示数据被存储在别处，使得突发存取模式可用于在单个操作中访问一组相邻像素显示数据。 基于矩形块的布置对于写入三角形，向量等是特别有利的。每个块优选地存储在交叉存储器组之间，可以并行访问以进行渲染和显示。 双行操作（一次打开两页）可以根据棋盘块分配进行，这仍然可以改善三角形和矢量管理。 本发明特别适用于具有单个访问端口的SDRAM阵列。

Abstract: A spread spectrum digital screening mask and a method and system for digital screening a continuous tone image with the spread spectrum digital screening mask. The mask is characterized in the frequency domain by a function in magnitude independent of angle within a band of frequencies between a minimum frequency and a maximum frequency. The mask may be further characterized by its thresholded binary planes at each of a plurality of predetermined threshold values. The binary planes are characterized in frequency domain by magnitudes primarily distributed within the band of frequencies. For each binary plane, the number of pixels having one of the binary values divided by the total number of pixels in the binary plane equals a fraction determined by the predetermined threshold value of the binary plane divided by the maximum threshold value.
