Abstract:
A driving device includes an output timing controller which controls an output timing of a first driving voltage and a second driving voltage respectively generated from a first voltage generator and a second voltage generator. A third driving voltage output from the output timing controller is provided to a first data driver and a second data driver, and also provided to a gamma voltage generator to generate a plurality of gamma voltages. Accordingly, a reverse electric potential between the third driving voltage and the gamma voltages is prevented from being generated in the first and second data drivers, therefore, preventing the first and second data drivers from being damaged.
Abstract:
A method for sensing vibration of a washing machine including an outer tub installed within a main body, an inner tub rotatably installed within the outer tub, and a motor that drives the inner tub, includes: distributing the laundry put in the inner tub; sensing actual vibration generated when the motor is acceleratedly operated; sensing unbalance mass generated during the accelerated operation of the motor; comparing the sensed actual vibration and the sensed unbalance mass with a reference vibration and a reference unbalance mass; and driving the motor based on the comparison result of the vibration and the unbalance mass. Thus, an unbalance sensing reference which has been set to be too strict more than necessary to sense an abnormal vibration can be mitigated, and thus, time taken for entering the dewatering stroke can be reduced, and because noise smaller than a reference value is generated by limiting vibration of the washing machine during the normal dewatering operation, an agreeable washing environment can be provided to the user.
Abstract:
According to embodiments of the invention, a height of a capacitor lower electrode is increased. Portions of the lower electrode and an interlayer insulating layer are etched within the interlayer insulating layer that is formed with the lower electrode thereon, so that a trench having a double damascene structure is formed. A dielectric layer and an upper electrode are formed within the trench. Therefore, shorts between metal interconnects caused by misalignments during formation of the upper electrode are prevented and consistent capacitance values may be secured.

A rear suspension of a three-wheeled car with two front wheels and one rear wheel installed in the car body frame may include a pair of roll links that may be connected to the front wheels and twists as the car turns, and a roll connector that pivots around a shaft as the roll links twist, and a knuckle assembly, which may be joined to a rear wheel, installed in the rear end of the car body frame, and connected to a roll connector so that it turns left and right as the roll connector turns, wherein the knuckle assembly turns in the same direction the front wheels turn.
Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to a method for producing lens patterns on a roll which is used to produce optical films wherein the method comprises forming a resin film on a roll comprising a plated layer which has been surface-plated with copper (Cu) or nickel (Ni); producing a preliminary lens pattern by striking the surface of the resin film on the roll with a chisel; etching with an etching solution the roll having the preliminary lens pattern formed thereon; and removing the resin film, and a roll for producing optical films comprising lens patterns formed thereon by the same method.
Abstract:
A multi battery pack system is composed of a plurality of battery packs. The master battery pack receives a total voltage from each slave battery pack and calculates a target total voltage using its total voltage and total voltages of all slave battery pack whenever a predetermined time period passes, sends the calculated target total voltage to each slave battery pack, compares the target total voltage with its total voltage, and then connects or disconnects its cell group and output terminals according to the comparison result. The slave battery packs include at least one slave battery pack, which sends its total voltage according to a request of the master battery pack, receives a target total voltage from the master battery pack, compares the target total voltage with its total voltage, and then connects or disconnects its cell group and output terminals according to the comparison result.

Abstract:
A backlight assembly includes a plurality of unit blocks to emit light. Each unit block includes a light-emitting part and a driving part. The light-emitting part includes at least two red light-emitting diodes (LEDs), two green LEDs, and two blue LEDs. The driving part includes a red LED-driving element that provides the red LEDs with a driving voltage, a green LED-driving element that provides the green LEDs with a driving voltage, and a blue LED-driving element that provides the blue LEDs with a driving voltage. LEDs may be driven together in a group, or may be driven individually to sequentially emit red light, green light, and blue light so a color filter is not included in a display panel having the backlight assembly. A driving element is connected to the LEDs to reduce manufacturing costs for the driving element circuits, thereby reducing manufacturing costs of the backlight assembly.
