An apparatus can detect a magnetic field with a high sensitivity using an ordinary-temperature pickup coil even when the pickup coil is arranged outside a cryostat. Specifically, the apparatus for measuring a magnetic field includes a pickup coil for detecting an external magnetic field, a SQUID electrically or magnetically connected to the pickup coil, a cryostat for holding the SQUID at low temperatures, and a driving device for driving the SQUID. The pickup coil is made of a normal-conducting material and is placed at an ordinary temperature outside the cryostat. By arranging outside the cryostat, the pickup coil can be brought close to a subject and can thereby detect a weak magnetic field in the subject with a high sensitivity.

This invention provides an apparatus for producing an electrode foil for use in aluminum electrolytic capacitors with which a high capacitance is obtained while the distortion of the foil and the leakage current can be controlled. At least two electrode plates as cathode are disposed in an electrolytic tank containing an electrolytic solution, and a direct current is supplied between an aluminum foil as anode and the electrode plates. Anodization is conducted continuously by turning the direction of the aluminum foil via rollers and conveying the foil between the electrode plates. During this treatment, the length and the position of the effective sections of the electrode plates are adjusted to keep the length to be at most two-thirds of the distance between an area near the surface of the electrolytic solution and the upper part of the bottom roller, so that the peak value of the anodizing current density appears not at the surface of the electrolytic solution but in the electrolytic solution.

A region determination circuit (60) determines whether or not each of the pixels in an image is within a region subject to correction, in which pixels having at most a predetermined brightness level appear with a frequency equal to or less than a predetermined value. An offset level generation circuit (10) generates an offset level (Offset) on the basis of the brightness of the pixels determined to be within the region subject to correction. An offset subtraction circuit (1) subtracts the offset level (Offset) from the image signal (Yi) to generate an offset image signal (Yofst). A gain generation circuit (20) generates a gain for the offset image signal (Yofst). A gain multiplication circuit (2) multiplies the offset image signal (Yofst) by the gain to generate a corrected image signal (Ya).

There is a need for providing a battery-less integrated circuit (IC) card capable of operating in accordance with a contact usage or a non-contact usage, preventing coprocessor throughput from degrading despite a decreased clock frequency for reduced power consumption under non-contact usage, and ensuring high-speed processing under non-contact usage. A dual interface card is a battery-less IC card capable of operating in accordance with a contact usage or a non-contact usage. The dual interface card operates at a high clock under contact usage and at a low clock under non-contact usage. A targeted operation comprises a plurality of different basic operations. The dual interface card comprises a basic arithmetic circuit group. Under the contact usage, the basic arithmetic circuit group performs one basic operation of the targeted operation at one cycle. Under the non-contact usage, the basic arithmetic circuit group sequentially performs at least two basic operations of the targeted operation at one cycle.

A bit generation apparatus includes a glitch generation circuit that generates glitch signals which include a plurality of pulses, and T-FF bit generation circuits which input the glitch signals, and based on either rising edges or falling edges of the plurality of pulses included in the glitch signals, generate a bit value of either 0 or 1. Each of the T-FF bit generation circuits generates a respective bit value based on either the parity of the number of rising edges or the parity of the number of falling edges of the plurality of pulses. As a result of employment of the T-FF bit generation circuits, circuits that are conventionally required but not essential for the glitch become unnecessary. This serves to prevent expansion in circuit scale and increase in processing time of bit generation for the bit generation circuit.

In initial generation (for example, shipping from the factory), a security device generates an identifier w specific to the security device, with the PUF technology, generates key information k (k=HF(k)) from the identifier w, generates encrypted confidential information x by encrypting (x=Enc(mk, k)) confidential information mk with the key information k, and stores the encrypted confidential information x and an authentication code h (h=HF′(k)) of the key information k, in a nonvolatile memory. In operation, the security device generates the identifier w with the PUF technology, generates the key information k from the identifier w, and decrypts the encrypted confidential information x with the key information k. At a timing where the identifier w is generated in the operation, the security device checks whether the current operating environment has largely changed from the initial generation (S311). If a change in operating environment is detected (S311→S312), the security device conducts a reset-up process (S312 to S315) of an authentication code h which is confidential information, and the encrypted confidential information x.
