Most digital signal processors provide 4 external interrupt input channels. But these are not sufficient for external interrupts of motor controls. Customized programmable interrupt controller, 8259, has 8 interrupt channels. Therefore, in the case of more external interrupt channels are needed, designers must expand by cascading the 8259. And this, 8259 device, have some inconvenience of interfacing the microprocessor in motor controls. In this paper, the expanded interrupt controller with 14 sufficient interrupt input channels for motor controls is designed using VHDL on the purpose of interfacing the microprocessor to the interrupt controller more compatibly and increasing the device utilization of FPGA/CPLD designed another peripherals. The interrupt controller model and each function blocks is proposed and illustrated. Simulation result are presented to estimate the designed interrupt controller.

This paper describes a 3-dimensional profile measurement method which was intended especially for sheet metal products such as shadow masks. The method is based upon machine vision in which the height variation of the surface is measured by software auto-forus image processing techniques. The method is found suitable for flexible surfaces with interrupt.

Despite the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) has been widely used in anesthesia, its use is rare in the field of dentistry. Placing LMA in the oral cavity may interrupt dental treatment. However, there are some circumstances in which LMA is more advantageous than tracheal intubation for managing the airway. Especially, the reinforced LMA has a flexible tube shaft, rendering it more accessible for dental treatment. We report a case of dental treatment of a 3-year-old patient with hypoplastic left heart syndrome combined with pulmonary hypertension using reinforced LMA for airway management under general anesthesia. We also discuss the considerations of utilizing the reinforced LMA for dental treatment.
