Systems and methods are provided using dynamically adjustable differential output drivers. Integrated circuits such as programmable logic devices may be provided with adjustable differential output drivers for transmitting high-speed data to other integrated circuits. The peak-to-peak output voltage and common-mode voltage of the output drivers may be adjusted. Dynamic control circuitry may be used to control the settings of current sources, programmable resistors, and voltage source circuitry in the adjustable differential output driver automatically in real time. The adjustable components in the differential output driver may be adjusted by the dynamic control circuitry based on feedback information received from the integrated circuit to which the data is transmitted.

Provided is an optical module. The optical module includes: an optical bench having a first trench of a first depth and a second trench of a second depth that is less than the first depth; a lens in the first trench of the optical bench; at least one semiconductor chip in the second trench of the optical bench; and a flexible printed circuit board covering an upper surface of the optical bench except for the first and second trenches, wherein the optical bench is a metal optical bench or a silicon optical bench.

An optical line terminal calculates a requirement threshold for each optical subscriber unit based on a difference between the time average allocated bandwidth of each optical subscriber unit and the target bandwidth, and notifies a corresponding optical subscriber unit of the calculated requirement threshold. The corresponding optical subscriber unit then notifies, based on the data amount accumulated in a buffer, the optical line terminal of a data amount, as a transmission requirement, up to a data separation that is less or equal to the notified requirement threshold and in which a maximum transmission amount can be transmitted. The optical line terminal then notifies the corresponding optical subscriber unit of a transmission permission amount in which the data equal to the transmission requirement of which the optical line terminal is notified can be transmitted. The corresponding optical subscriber unit then transmits the data amount corresponding to the transmission permission amount.

A single chip integrated circuit measuring circuit (1) for determining a characteristic of the impedance of an external complex impedance circuit (2) for facilitating characterization of the impedance of the complex impedance circuit (2) comprises a signal generating circuit (7) for generating a variable frequency stimulus signal for applying to the complex impedance circuit (2). A first receiving circuit (10) receives a response signal from the complex impedance circuit (2) in response to the stimulus signal and conditions the response signal. A first analog-to-digital converter (68) converts the conditioned response signal to a first digital output signal, which is read from the first analog-to-digital converter (68) through a first digital output port (14). The response signal from the complex impedance circuit (2) is a current signal, and a current to voltage converter circuit (64) converts the response signal to a voltage signal. A first RMS to DC level converting circuit (70) converts the AC voltage of the response signal to a DC voltage level, and a fourth multiplexer (67) selectively applies the voltage response signal or the DC voltage level signal to the first analog-to-digital converter (68), depending on whether it is desired that the first digital output signal should be indicative of the phase shift or amplitude change in the response signal relative to the stimulus signal. A second receiving circuit (20) receives the stimulus signal, and similarly converts the stimulus signal to a second digital output signal for facilitating comparison of the response signal with the stimulus signal.

Provided is an apparatus for compensating for a gray component of an input image signal. The apparatus detects a pattern of the input image signal and compensates for the gray component by substituting each channel value of the input image signal by a median value if it is determined that the input image signal is gray pattern. Accordingly, a problem of displaying a color component due to distortion of a gray component of an input image signal can be resolved by resolving a color recognition problem of a gray signal generated by channel differences of the input image signal due to noise induced by a display system, which receives an output of an ADC, or external influences.

A high gain differential amplifier includes first through eighth transistors, first through third degeneration resistors, and first through third current sources. The fourth and fifth transistors form a p-type metal-oxide-semiconductor (PMOS) transistor pair. Further, the second and eighth transistors form a current mirror circuit. The PMOS transistor pair and the current mirror circuit form a common mode feedback circuit. The high gain differential amplifier controls the common-mode output voltage with the common mode feedback circuit and a reference voltage.

The present invention relates to a reflective polarizer and a backlight unit including same and, more particularly, to a reflective polarizer and a backlight unit including same which can display excellent and uniform brightness throughout the visible light wavelength range in the following manner. Regardless of the incident angle of incident light, a discordance in the refractive index in one particular direction is minimized, and the transmissivity of polarized light targeted within the visible light wavelength range is uniform. Thus, light transmitted through the reflective polarizer is not biased toward a particular wavelength range, and the exterior is not colorful or a particular color due to rainbow-colored light. Because the reflectivity of polarized light not targeted within the visible light wavelength range is significantly large, the light is not biased toward a particular wavelength range.

The present invention provides a perpendicularly magnetized film structure exhibiting high interface-induced magnetic anisotropy by utilizing a combination of an alloy comprising Fe as a main component and MgAl2O4 as a basic configuration.

A semiconductor memory device is provided. The semiconductor memory device includes a cross-coupled latch type sense amplifier and a buffer that prevents mismatch. The buffer is formed between PMOS transistors and NMOS transistors of the sense amplifier so that mismatch for transistors operating in pair can be minimized.
