| 20090040614 | Dispersive Filter - A dispersive filter includes two dispersion systems with an intermediate slit between them. The two dispersion systems have similar but mirror image dispersion characteristics at the plane of the intermediate slit and are configured so that the entrance port of the dispersive filter is polychromatically imaged on the exit port. The intermediate slit passes blocks selected wavelengths and transmits the remaining dispersed wavelengths from the first dispersion system to the second dispersion system. The second dispersion system combines the dispersed beam that passes through the intermediate slit to form an output beam, which is focused on the exit port. In this manner, the radiance of the input radiation is preserved ignoring losses caused by the optical elements and the blocked wavelengths. | 02-12-2009 |

| 20110084768 | Dual reference oscillator phase-lock loop - A phase-locked loop has a stable high frequency reference oscillator to provide a stable high frequency reference signal that has reference frequency that is a small submultiple of a generated frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator within the phase-locked loop. An adjustable output frequency feedback circuit has with a feedback divide ratio that is approximately the small submultiple and adjusts the feedback ratio such that the generated frequency of the voltage controlled oscillator is locked to a stable low frequency reference input signal. The feedback divide ratio is adjusted as a function of a required ratio change value that is a function of a current phase error of the generated frequency of a voltage controlled oscillator and the stable low frequency reference input signal and a phase error derivative. The phase error derivative is a difference of the current phase error and a previous phase error. | 04-14-2011 |
| 20110087347 | Digital controller for automatic rate detection and tracking of audio interface clocks - Systems and methods to achieve a digital audio interface having automatic rate detection and tracking of digital audio streams have been achieved. The system comprises a digital controller working in conjunction with an analog phase-locked loop (PLL). It removes the need to know or communicate in advance the rate at which the interface will be operating, so allowing asynchronous switching between different audio streams. The digital controller acts as a phase-lock loop by modifying the feedback divide ratio of the PLL in order to minimize the phase error between the device clock and an arbitrary audio interface clock. | 04-14-2011 |
