20140149037 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SURVEYING A DISTRIBUTION OF CHARGEABILITY IN A VOLUME OF EARTH - A method for surveying a distribution of chargeability in a volume of earth includes inducing polarization in the volume of earth by applying first and second primary magnetic fields to the volume of earth, with the first and second primary magnetic fields respectively oscillating at a first and second frequencies. First and second secondary magnetic fields emitted by the volume of earth in response to application of the primary magnetic fields are measured, with the first and second frequencies being selected such that the induction number of the volume of earth is less than unity, and, in one example, such that the imaginary portions of the secondary magnetic fields depend approximately linearly upon frequency. Distribution of chargeability can be determined for the volume of earth from a linear combination of the first and second secondary magnetic fields. | 05-29-2014 |

20160067960 | PRINTHEAD DRIVE CIRCUIT WITH VARIABLE RESISTANCE - A printhead for a printer has actuating elements for ejecting fluid, and a drive circuit for selectively applying a drive waveform having several slopes, to an actuating element, according to a print signal. A resulting printhead has a lesser sensitivity to changes of slew rate in one slope of the drive waveform than a sensitivity to change in another. The drive circuit has a variable resistance circuit, and a control circuit to control the variable resistance circuit to adjust a slew rate of the slope of lesser sensitivity according to a trim signal. By making the adjustment less sensitive, the trim signal and trim control can have more relaxed tolerances, thus can employ simpler, cheaper circuitry. | 03-10-2016 |
20160067961 | SETTING START VOLTAGE FOR DRIVING ACTUATING ELEMENTS - A printhead provides actuation pulses for driving actuating elements from a common drive waveform via respective switching circuits, the waveform having a pre-charge ramp followed by a steeper slope. A start voltage of a leading edge of the actuation pulse is set by opening the switching circuit to decouple the common drive waveform from its actuating element part way along the pre-charge ramp. After the pre-charge ramp the actuating element is coupled again to the common drive waveform, so that the voltage across the actuating element follows the steeper slope to form the leading edge. Adjusting the timing of the decoupling adjusts the start voltage, enables trimming relative to other actuating elements. The gentle slope of the pre-charge ramp enables the precision of timing of switching to be more relaxed, so that trigger circuitry for controlling the switching circuit can be simpler, smaller, cheaper and thermally more efficient. | 03-10-2016 |

One such method includes receiving, from a test tool, data indicative of a user-created test script, being a data-bound test script in the present example. The data-bound test script is created for testing a target application, and is bound to a predetermined data set. This received data is then processed, thereby to define data indicative of an unbound test script. A user interface is provided for allowing a user to associate the unbound test script with one or more data sets selected from a repository of stored data sets. Responsive to a user command, data indicative of a new data-bound test scripts is defined based on the association of the unbound test script with the selected one or more data sets. This new defined data-bound test script is executable via the test tool. For example, instructions are provided to the test tool such that those scripts are executed for the testing of the target application. In some cases, multiple unbound test scripts are effectively bolted together to create more complex scenarios for testing. | 11-25-2010 |
