Disk Drive Controller System

US Patent:
5016121, May 14, 1991
Filed:
Feb 25, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/162948
Inventors:
Charles I. Peddle - Scotts Valley CA
Robert G. Taylor - Santa Cruz CA
John R. Masters - Aptos CA
Glenn M. Stark - Santa Cruz CA
Kenneth M. Stein - San Jose CA
James M. Donohue - Los Alamitos CA
Michael T. Dugan - Thousand Oaks CA
William G. Swinton - Santa Cruz CA
Bruce A. Fairman - Woodside CA
Warren L. Dalziel - Monte Sereno CA
Assignee:
Tandon Corporation - Moorpark CA
International Classification:
G11B 509
US Classification:
360 39
Abstract:
A disk drive system includes a disk controller system having separate head positioning and data transfer subsystems and supporting up to four disk drives, two of which may be removable, portable drive units and two of which may connect through a standard ST506 interface. The removable disk drives incorporate a read and write protected data cylinder for storing information such as the maintenance history of the drive, and a read only cylinder for storing a unique serial number as well as other write protected data. The system also features a high capacity, high speed sector buffer which allows continuous transfers of data to or from noninterleaved sectors and supports concurrent disk and system accesses.

Method And Apparatus For Improving Disk Storage Capacity

US Patent:
4514771, Apr 30, 1985
Filed:
Oct 13, 1982
Appl. No.:
6/434075
Inventors:
Glenn Stark - Santa Cruz CA
David M. Barton - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Victor Technologies Inc. - Scotts Valley CA
International Classification:
G11B 1924
US Classification:
360 73
Abstract:
Data is stored on a rotating memory disk by maintaining constant the relative velocity between the recording transducer and the recording media. The rotational speed of the disk is varied as the transducer is translated radially of the disk recording surface, the disk surface being divided into a number of concentric track zones each containing a predetermined number of tracks. For any given zone, an optimum rotational motor speed is established and the rotational speed of the disk is maintained at that zone speed when the transducer position signals specify a given zone. As the transducer is commanded to step to a different track in a different zone, the rotational speed of the disk is altered to match the new zone speed within a relatively short period of time. Once the transducer is located within the given zone, the rotational disk speed is maintained at that zone speed for motion within the zone.

International Classification:
H04N 7/18
US Classification:
348 79, 348E07085
Abstract:
Provided herein are systems methods including a design of a microscope slide scanner for digital pathology applications which provides high quality images and automated batch-mode operation at low cost. The instrument architecture is advantageously based on a convergence of high performance, yet low cost, computing technologies, interfaces and software standards to enable high quality digital microscopy at very low cost. Also provided is a method based in part on a stitching method that allows for dividing an image into a number of overlapping tiles and reconstituting the image with a magnification without substantial loss of accuracy. A scanner is employed in capturing snapshot images. The method allows for overlapping images captured in consecutive snapshots.

Strobe Lighting System For Digital Images

US Patent:
7092029, Aug 15, 2006
Filed:
Mar 22, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/816038
Inventors:
Robert A. Medwick - Aptos CA, US
Glenn Stark - Santa Cruz CA, US
Assignee:
ESS Technology, Inc. - Fremont CA
International Classification:
H04N 5/222, H04N 5/235
US Classification:
348371, 348370, 3482291
Abstract:
An image sensor acquires a preparatory image that is lighted for a predetermined preparatory duration by a strobe. The preparatory image data corresponding to the preparatory image from the image sensor is processed and an average preparatory image luminance is determined based on the preparatory image data and weighting at least a subset of the preparatory image data. A supplemental strobe duration is generated based on the average preparatory image luminance and luminance weightings. The electronic image sensor may be activated to acquire an image with supplemental light provided by the supplemental strobe duration.

Assignee:
Tandon Corporation - Moorpark CA
International Classification:
G11B 5012
US Classification:
360 9804
Abstract:
A portable hard disk drive module enclosing all of the operative components of the disk drive is removably received by a receptacle in a microcomputer system. The disk drive module and the receptacle each have an electrical connector and these connectors are coupled when the module is in an operating position within the receptacle. The connectors comprise the sole interface between the operative components of the disk drive and the remainder of the computer system. The receptacle includes a transport mechanism for moving the module from a load position to the operating position and from the operating position to a module unload position. Accordingly, movement of the module between these positions in the receptacle is completely under machine control.
