Abstract:
An information device disclosed herein includes a communicator which communicates with a host, wherein, in a heat release mode, the communicator transmits a reply that the data has not been properly received to the host at a given ratio even when the data has been properly received; a heat-producing internal unit which operates according to the data received by the communicator, the heat-producing unit producing heat by operating continuously; a temperature detector which detects a temperature of the internal unit; and a first mode changer which changes the communicator from a normal mode to the heat release mode when the temperature detected by the temperature detector is a first set value or higher.

Abstract:
There is provided an apparatus which obtains a circumstance where LDPC codes are interleaved without damaging modulation rules and thereby a correction ability of LDPC encoding and decoding method is fully exhibited. The apparatus includes an RLL rule applying section which modulates user data by applying an RLL rule to the user data and thereby obtains RLL encoded sequence data, an interleave section which interleaves the RLL encoded sequence data and thereby obtains interleaved sequence data, an LDPC parity generating section which subjects the interleaved sequence data to LDPC encoding processing and thereby obtains LDPC parity sequence data, an inserting section which inserts parity of the LDPC parity sequence data in the RLL encoded sequence data in a distribution manner and thereby obtains output data, and an output section which records or transmits the output data.
Abstract:
New input systems, that is, a paper icon, a paper controller, a paper keyboard, and a mouse pad capable of inputting letters, characters or the like to a computer and performing operations with easy manipulation and replacing hardware devices such as a keyboard, a mouse, and a tablet are provided. By providing an icon formed on a medium for reading a dot pattern formed on a surface of the medium using a scanner connected to an information processing device, for converting the dot pattern into each of or one of a code value and a coordinate value defined by the dot pattern, and for outputting a voice, an image, a moving image, a letter or character or a program corresponding to each of or one of the code value and the coordinate value stored in the information processing device or for outputting information on an access to a website corresponding to each of or one of the code value and the coordinate value stored in the information processing device, it is possible to realize information on the voice, image, moving image or letter or character prepared in advance, start of the program, access to the website or the like.
Abstract:
A quadrangular or rectangular area on a medium surface of a printed material is defined as a block. A straight line in a vertical direction and a horizontal direction along an edge of the block is defined as a reference lattice line. A virtual lattice point is disposed at a predetermined interval on the reference lattice line. A reference lattice point dot is disposed on a virtual lattice point on a horizontal reference lattice line. A straight line connecting the reference grid point dots and virtual lattice points on a vertical line is defined as a lattice line. A point of intersection between lattice lines is defined as a virtual lattice point. A dot pattern is generated by arranging one or more information dots having a distance and a direction on the basis of the virtual lattice point. Such a dot pattern is scanned as image information by an optical reading means. Then, the dot pattern is converted into a numerical value and the information corresponding to the numerical information is read from a storage means. Then the information is outputted.
Abstract:
Semiconductor elements composing a semiconductor device are formed on a semiconductor substrate. Wirings composed of copper or an alloy mainly composed of copper are formed in wiring layers through interlayer insulation films to connect the semiconductor elements to each other. When the wirings are formed, a temperature of the wirings is held in a first temperature zone covering ±40° C. of a temperature at which a stress migration is most accelerated.
Abstract:
By including a unit for storing data to be determined, a unit for delaying the data, a unit for storing the output of the delay unit, and a unit for comparing the storage contents of the data before the delay with the storage contents of the data after the delay, and outputting a marginless status detection signal when they are different, the presence/absence of a margin is monitored regardless of ambient conditions by using an output marginless status detection signal as a switch control signal for a clock switch circuit, thereby operating electronic equipment without changing a frequency of a clock signal up to the critical condition.
Abstract:
