Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100097256Apparatus for and Method of Performing an Analog to Digital Conversion - An analog to digital converter adapted to perform a first, more significant, part of a conversion as a successive approximation conversion, a pipeline conversion or a flash conversion and a second, least significant, part of a conversion as a sigma-delta conversion.04-22-2010
20100176979ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER - An analog to digital converter comprising an Nth analog to digital converter and an N+1th analog to digital converter arranged in series such that a residue signal from the Nth analog to digital converter is provided as an input to the N+1th analog to digital converter, characterised in that a bandwidth control means is provided in a signal path for the residue signal and the bandwidth control means is controlled so as to have a first bandwidth during a first period following generation of a conversion result from the Nth analog to digital converter, and a second bandwidth less than the first bandwidth in a second period following the first period.07-15-2010
20100315278MOST SIGNIFICANT BITS ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER, AND AN ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER INCLUDING A MOST SIGNIFICANT BITS ANALOG TO DIGITAL CONVERTER - A most significant bits analog to digital converter for determining a first P bits of an N bit analog to digital conversion, the most significant bits analog to digital converter comprising: a digital to analog converter a capacitive attenuator, and a switching arrangement for inhibiting action of the attenuator during sampling and enabling the attenuator during conversion.12-16-2010

David A. Hurrell, Orinda, CA US

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100307816CABLE ENTRY SEAL FOR PASSING A CABLE THROUGH A STRUCTURE - A cable entry seal is provided for passing a cable through an opening within a structure. The cable entry seal includes a body extending a length. A passageway extends through the length of the body. The passageway is configured to receive the cable therethrough. The body includes a flange and a seal fitting extending outwardly from the flange along the length of the body. The seal fitting includes an exterior sealing surface. The cable entry seal includes a seal conduit having a sealing end surrounding and sealingly engaged with the exterior sealing surface of the seal fitting. The seal conduit is configured to surround the cable when the cable is received through the passageway of the body. The cable entry seal includes a lock ring connected to the body. The lock ring surrounds and sealingly engages with the sealing end of the seal conduit such that the sealing end is held between the exterior sealing surface of the seal fitting and the lock ring.12-09-2010

20090199044Device self-maintenance - Software running on a processor is operable to control the cycled powering down and powering up of components of a self-service terminal (SST) in order to attempt to rectify a fault within the SST without the need to power down the SST core processor. The software can also control the resetting of universal serial bus (USB) ports associated with the components of the SST in order to try and clear faults associated with a communications link between a component and the SST core processor.08-06-2009
20090200365Self-service terminal - A self-service terminal comprises a plurality of devices, each device having a unique device identifier. The terminal also has a fascia including a plurality of apertures, each aperture having a corresponding indicator and being associated with a device in the self-service terminal. The terminal executes a control application for identifying and energising an indicator corresponding to an aperture to be used by a customer. The terminal also includes a mapping component for allowing an authorized user (i) to display the current mapping of indicators to device identifiers, and (ii) to modify the current mapping to associate an indicator with a different device identifier.08-13-2009
