| 5635253 | Method of replenishing electroless gold plating baths A replenishing solution for a cyanide-based electroless gold plating bath. The solution includes a gold(III) halide such as gold chloride, gold bromide, tetrachloroaurate (and its sodium, potassium, and ammonium salts), and tetrabromoaurate (and its sodiu... | 06/03/1997 |
| 5516416 | Apparatus and method for electroplating pin grid array packaging modules An apparatus and a method for electroplating pin grid array (PGA) packaging modules by utilizing a compressible member and an electrically conductive foil for providing electrical connections to the pins such that all the critical areas of the pins, the w... | 05/14/1996 |
| 5477451 | Method and system for natural language translation The present invention is a system for translating text from a first source language into a second target language. The system assigns probabilities or scores to various target-language translations and then displays or makes otherwise available the highes... | 12/19/1995 |
| 5424888 | Speed independent, air bearing slider An air bearing slider has both front and rear pads extending from a generally planar body, both pads having faces opposed to a recording medium and separated by a gap that is substantially in excess of any fly height of the slider. Both surfaces exhibit e... | 06/13/1995 |
| 5410334 | Switch for pen-down sensing in electronic styli A pen-down sense switch for electronic styli is based on three geometric principles. The first is that a regular convex surface contacts any other surface possessing a larger (or a relative negative) radius of curvature at a single point. The second princ... | 04/25/1995 |
| 5296048 | Class of magnetic materials for solid state devices A new semiconductor material or compound and method for its manufacture is disclosed. The material or compound has the Formula III-V or IV which includes as part of the compound, a transition element or a rare earth element present in an amount sufficient... | 03/22/1994 |
| 5182773 | Speaker-independent label coding apparatus The present invention is related to speech recognition and particularly to a new type of vector quantizer and a new vector quantization technique in which the error rate of associating a sound with an incoming speech signal is drastically reduced. To achi... | 01/26/1993 |
| 5173392 | Forming a pattern on a substrate A pattern is formed on a substrate by providing on the substrate a dielectric composition; defining a pattern in said dielectric; depositing metal and then micromachining the metal to provide the desired pattern on the substrate.... | 12/22/1992 |
| 5066512 | Electrostatic deposition of LCD color filters Methods for the coating of different closely-spaced areas of an electrode member to produce a color filter matrix thereon.
