Abstract:
A lithium ion secondary battery in which a safety vent as a safety device for a swelling phenomenon functions under a low pressure. A notch is formed in an inner surface of a large-area wall of the secondary battery, and an auxiliary notch is formed in an outer surface to correspond to the notch formed in the inner surface.
Abstract:
An output driver has an output multiplexor and an output current driver. The output multiplexor receives a data signal and outputs a q-node signal. The output current driver receives the q-node signal and drives a bus based on the q-node signal. The output multiplexor processes the data signal in various ways to generate the q-node signal. The output current driver is responsive to current control bits to select a amount of output drive current. In addition, the output multiplexor is controlled such that the output impedance of the output current driver is maintained within a predetermined range.
Abstract:
Provided are a method for effectively displaying a service component of a digital broadcasting and a digital broadcasting receiver that allow a user to effectively to select a desired service component by displaying the service component contained in one ensemble according to a characteristic of the service component.
Abstract:
An output buffer circuit is provided for use with a first external voltage which provides voltage at a first level, the output buffer circuit comprising: an output terminal; a second voltage supply for providing voltage at a second level less than the first level; an n-channel pull-up transistor including a drain coupled to the first voltage supply and including a source coupled to the output terminal; a p-channel pull-up transistor including a drain coupled to the output terminal and a source coupled to the second voltage supply; an n-channel pull-down transistor including a drain coupled to the output terminal; a bootstrapping turn-on circuit for raising a gate of the n-channel pull-up transistor to a raised voltage level which is above the first voltage level such that the n-channel pull-up transistor becomes turned on; a turn-off circuit for turning off the n-channel pull-up transistor when the output terminal has been substantially pulled up to the second voltage level; and a turn-on circuit for turning on the p-channel pull-up transistor when the output voltage at the output terminal has been substantially pulled up to the second level.
