    Abstract: A control unit receives a sensor output and performs signal processing on the sensor output to produce an internal signal. The control unit produces internal data by adding time data to an internal signal and transmits the internal data to an in-vehicle network. A diagnostic unit receives the internal data from the in-vehicle network and stores the internal data in an internal data storing device. The diagnostic unit also receives a measurement signal produced based on the sensor output. The diagnostic unit produces external data by adding time data containing time at which the second timer resets a time count when an ignition switch is closed and stores the external data. The diagnostic unit reproduces the internal data and the external data and extracts the internal signal and the measurement signal. The diagnostic unit displays or stores the internal signal and the measurement signal according to the time data.

    Abstract: A functional molecular element whose functions can be controlled by an electric field based on a new principle. A Lewis base molecule (14) with positive permittivity anisotropy or a dipole moment in the major axis direction of the molecule is disposed, via a metal ion (3) that can act as a Lewis acid, in a pendant-like form on a key molecule (2) in the form of a line or film that has a conjugated system and exhibits conductivity, thereby forming a functional molecular element 1 that can realize a function where the conformation changes due to the application of an electric field. The conductive key molecule (2) and the Lewis base molecule (14) form a complex with the metal ion (3). When an electric field is applied in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper in FIG. 1(b), for example, the Lewis base molecule (14) performs a 90° “neck twisting” movement with the up-down direction in the drawing as the axis. Also, when an electric field is applied in the up-down direction in the drawing as shown in FIG. 1(c), the Lewis base molecule (14) performs a “see-saw” movement with the direction perpendicular to the plane of the paper as the axis, thereby switching the conductivity of the conductive key molecule (2).

    Abstract: Method of driving a liquid crystal display such as a ferroelectric liquid crystal display by multiplex addressing. The display has a pair of bases. A transparent electrode layer and an orientation film are formed in this order on each base. The two bases are placed opposite to each other with a certain gap between them. A ferroelectric liquid crystal material is inserted in the gap. Let Vthlow be the voltage applied when the transmittivity of the liquid crystal material begins to change. Let Vthhigh be the voltage applied when the transmittivity of the liquid crystal material substantially assumes its maximum value. First and second select pulses of opposite polarities are applied to the liquid crystal material. Let Vs1 be the voltage of the first select pulse. Let Vs2 be the voltage of the second select voltage. This method is characterized in that Vs1=±(Vthlow−&Dgr;V), where &Dgr;V>0, and that Vs2=∓(Vthhigh+&Dgr;V), where &Dgr;V>0.

    Abstract: A liquid crystal is dropped on one end portion of a bottom substrate that is coated with a sealing material in an outer peripheral portion. After a top substrate is laid on the bottom substrate, the liquid crystal is expanded from the one end portion of the bottom substrate toward the other end portion. If necessary, an air ejecting opening is formed in the sealing material at a position located in the other end portion of the bottom substrate. The surfaces of the top and bottom substrates may be formed with grooves for accommodating an excessive part of the liquid crystal at positions inside the sealing member. As a result, no air bubbles remain in the liquid crystal even if the charging of the liquid crystal is performed at the atmospheric pressure.
