    Abstract: In the bias circuit of a magneto-resistive element signal amplifying circuit, a favorable high frequency characteristic is obtained by suppressing the influence of a parasitic capacitance that is generated. Furthermore, noise is removed by a lowpass filter including a resistor and a capacitor having a relatively small size in an integrated circuit.

    Abstract: A signal amplifying circuit has a differential amplifying circuit, a capacitor and a voltage follower. This circuit takes as input signal the signals outputted from the two terminals of an MR element to which a bias electric current is supplied, and amplifies and outputs the difference in input signals from output terminals. One input terminal of this circuit is connected directly with one of the terminals of the MR element. A capacitor connects the other input terminal of this circuit with the another terminal of the MR element. The two input terminals of this circuit are connected respectively with a non-inverting input terminal and an inverting input terminal of the voltage follower. The voltage follower provides an output to an input terminal of this circuit via a resistance.

    Abstract: The compact coin hopper for holding and dispensing coins in bulk includes a rotable disk for releasing individual coins to a sliding base beneath the rotable disk for ejection from the coin hopper. The upper surface of the rotable disk includes an upper step part and a lower step part connected by a riser part. The upper step part has a crescent arc shape with a radii smaller than the radius of the rotating disk in a planar view. One end of the crescent arc shape terminates adjacent an edge of the through hole while the other end of the crescent arc shape diverges away from the through hole and terminates adjacent a peripheral side edge of the lower step part. The configuration of the upper and lower step parts and the riser part assist in dispensing a coin.
