    摘要: A thermal printer drive control apparatus of the type having a thermal print head comprising a plurality of heating elements provides for reliable cost effective thermal head temperature detection by means of producing multiple, different current flow intervals that are applied to binary data to produce data drive signals for the heating elements. The current flow intervals are based upon historical drive data derived from linear temperature conditions sensed at the thermal print head. This information is converted to a digitized representation for use in conjunction with a table placed in memory that provides predetermined current flow intervals based upon the digitized representation. Further, circuitry is provided to produce heating element drive signals having pulse widths based upon the determined current flow intervals.

    摘要: A thermal printer 1 and control method for controlling print speed to prevent variation in printing pitch due to frequent slight changes in the print speed following a significant change in print speed. The print speed, which is the speed at which the print medium i.e., paper is conveyed when printing, is controlled based on known print speed control factors. The thermal printer comprises a paper feed mechanism for conveying the print medium at a controlled print speed passed a thermal print head, a print speed control unit 9 for controlling the print speed of the paper feed mechanism based on the print speed control factors, a print speed change acquisition unit 3 for determining the change in the print speed over a predetermined time, and a comparison unit 7 for determining if the change in print speed exceeds a predetermined threshold value. The print speed control unit 9 limits change in the print speed based on the print speed control factors for a predetermined time after the comparison unit 7 determines that the change in print speed exceeds the threshold value.

    摘要: A mobile device for a vehicle includes a receiving unit that receives transmission signals transmitted from individual transmitting antennas of a vehicle-side device; a control unit that determines distances to the individual transmitting antennas using the signal strengths of the received transmission signals; and a transmitting unit that transmits, to the vehicle-side device using wireless communication, data items indicating the distances. In a time period in which communication is not performed between the mobile device and the vehicle-side device, the signal strength of a received signal is measured, thereby obtaining a measurement value, and the measurement value is stored as a noise element in a memory. When communication between the mobile device and the vehicle-side device is performed, correction for noise is performed on the signal strengths of the transmission signals transmitted from the transmitting antennas, and the distances are determined.

    摘要: Two operation channels CH1 and CH2 of a bidirectional photothyristor chip 31 are disposed away from each other so as not to intersect with each other. In between a P-gate diffusion region 23 on the left-hand side and a P-gate diffusion region 23′ on the right-hand side on an N-type silicon substrate, and in between the CH1 and the CH2, a channel isolation region 29 comprised of an oxygen doped semi-insulating polycrystalline silicon film 35a doped with phosphorus is formed. Consequently, a silicon interface state (Qss) in the vicinity of the channel isolation region 29 on the surface of the N-type silicon substrate increases, so that holes or minority carriers in the N-type silicon substrate are made to disappear in the region. This makes it possible to prevent such commutation failure that when a voltage of the inverted phase is applied to the CH2 side at the point of time when the CH1 is turned off, the CH2 is turned on without incidence of light, and this allows a commutation characteristic to be enhanced.

    摘要: A keyless entry apparatus is disclosed that is capable of accurately determining whether a portable apparatus is positioned inside or outside an interface between an inner surface and an outer surface of a vehicle even when a region which is affected by crosstalk and/or in which saturation occurs exists outside or inside the vehicle. When an in-vehicle control unit detects that a portable apparatus is positioned in a region which is affected by crosstalk and/or in which saturation occurs, in the vicinities of some of a plurality of transmitting antennas, on the basis of intensity data from some of the plurality of transmitting antennas that is detected by a portable apparatus control unit, the in-vehicle control unit determines whether intensity data from the transmitting antenna that is detected by the portable apparatus is included in a data group composed of a plurality of intensity data that are transmitted from the transmitting antennas and then received by the portable apparatus when the portable apparatus is positioned along the inside of an interface between an inner surface and an outer surface of the vehicle in the region. When it is determined that the intensity data is included in the data group, the in-vehicle control unit determines that the portable apparatus is positioned inside the vehicle. When it is determined that the intensity data is not included in the data group, the in-vehicle control unit determines that the portable apparatus is positioned outside the vehicle.

    摘要: High print quality from a thermal printer is maintained while the print speed is decreasing without producing white streaks or uneven print density by controlling the hysteresis coefficient of the thermal print head 35 based on the energizing history of the thermal print head 35 and print speed control factors used for determining print speed,which is the speed at which the paper is advanced while printing. The thermal printer, comprises a hysteresis coefficient setting unit 2 for setting a hysteresis coefficient for the print head based on the energizing history of the thermal print head 35; an energizing time calculation unit 3 for calculating the energizing time during which drive signals are to be applied to the thermal print head 35 for printing based upon the hysteresis coefficient set by the hysteresis coefficient setting unit; a printing control device 4 for generating the drive signals to be applied to the print head in response to the energizing time calculated by the energizing time calculation unit 3; a print speed determination unit 5 for determining the change in the print speed and when the print speed is decreasing; and a coefficient changing unit 6 for changing the hysteresis coefficient when a change in print speed occurs causing the print speed to decrease. Preferably the coefficient changing unit changes the hysteresis coefficient to a value greater than the hysteresis coefficient value used immediately before deceleration.
