An interferometer spectrometer that has reduced alignment sensitivity is described herein. Parallelism of an output ray pair formed by a single input ray is not affected by variations in relative alignment of the components. In comparison to other compensated interferometer designs, lateral separation errors in the output ray pair due to optical component misalignment are reduced. The reduced alignment sensitivity may be accomplished by utilizing simple planar components that are common to both light paths. The reduced alignment sensitivity and simplicity in design provides a more compact and more robust interferometer, with reduced manufacturing costs associated therewith. An elliptical field of view light source that utilizes an array of collimator lenses is also described. The light source provides a more compact design than a single circular collimator lens of the same area, and is suitable for single channel or multi-channel use.

The invention describes apparatus and method for receiving and decoding a multiplexed data stream organised in sectors containing payload portions individually destined for one of two or more decoders. The apparatus is connected to a memory device addressable in an address space.

The invention relates to a pin assembly which keeps single-piece, two-piece or multi-pieced yarn processing elements, especially yarn interlacing spinnerets or thermal treatment elements, in an exact position during an entire service life, despite the extreme effects of preparations used. Instead of a traditional soldered joint or an adhesive connection, mechanical clamping means are used to fix the dowel pins to one part of the spinneret. Fixation of the dowel pins is not affected by heat or chemical preparations. The clamping means consists of a simple clamping ring holding the dowel pin in position directly inside the body of the spinneret between the clamping pin and an after-body. The novel positioning solution can be used with individual parts of spinnerets, parts of spinnerets in machines or multiple parts of spinnerets. The dowel pins enable the entire spinneret to be substantially miniaturized and allow narrow separation between various yarn runs, which was previously impossible. The invention can be used advantageously in interlacing spinnerets or in stream treatment elements.
