20140159189 | Semiconductor Detector Device - A semiconductor detector device comprises a layer of semiconductor material for generating charge in response to an input event and an array of pixels for collecting charge. Tracks are connected to the pixels to supply signals representing the collected charge to a reader circuit. The pixels are grouped into sets, all the pixels within a set being connected to the same track, the sets of pixels being interwoven so that so that any group of n adjacent pixels capable of collecting charge generated by a single input event is connected to a combination of n tracks that is unique to the group of pixels, where n has a value of one of 2, 3 or 4. This allows detection of position of the area of charge collection on the basis of temporally coincident signals on a combination of at least n tracks. | 06-12-2014 |
20140247382 | Random Access Addressing on Active Pixel Image Sensor - An active pixel image sensor comprises a pixel array of active pixels that are capable of being random access addressed to provide pixel readout signals from the addressed pixels on N output lines, where N is a plural integer and M ADC lanes capable of performing analog-to-digital conversion of pixel readout signals, where M is a plural integer less than N. A switching arrangement is capable of selectively connecting output lines to the M ADC lanes. A control unit provides random access addressing of the pixels, and in synchronisation therewith controls the switching arrangement to connect the output lines on which the addressed pixels provide pixel readout signals to ADC lanes. | 09-04-2014 |

20130193896 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OPERATING AN ELECTRICAL DRIVE SYSTEM - An electrical drive system includes an electric motor having an armature, which is mounted on a stator, and a rotor, wherein aligning stator flux with rotor flux enables current to flow in the armature without inducing torque on the rotor shaft. The disclosed operation may be used, for example, in testing the electrical drive system. The electric drive system can carry full rated current yet produce little or no torque, thereby increasing the current that can be tested during electrical drive test procedures without producing undesired forces or motion. The method may be used, for example, in heating the electric motor, for example for de-icing. | 08-01-2013 |
