A device for simulating circuits is provided with an identifying system and a verifying system. The identifying system identifies a pair of wires in which two signals operate simultaneously within an appointed period and a pair of wires in which two signals do not operate almost simultaneously within the appointed period. The verifying system verifies actions of a circuit to be analyzed, under an assumption that the coupling capacitor between the pair of wires in which it is judged by the identifying system that two signals do not simultaneously operate within the appointed period is a ground capacitor.

A power supply circuit improves the power factor when the load is light, and incorporates a starting circuit for reacting quickly to the changes in the output from the power supply circuit and a short-circuit detecting means for detecting the short-circuit of the feedback signal. The apparatus includes: an error amplifier; a comparator that monitors the output from the error amplifier and generates an offset regulating current ISO; a multiplier; a sensing current comparator that compares the output signal from the multiplier and the AC line current and generates a reset signal; a timer that directly monitors the inputted zero-cross signal; and a comparator for short-circuit detection, that facilitates reducing the exterior parts and components.

A paper feed apparatus having a pickup mechanism to pick up a plurality of paper sheets stacked on a chute one by one from the bottom and carrying the paper sheets to a predetermined standby position, comprises a gate 2 disposed facing a pickup roller 1 almost vertically with respect to the direction of paper feed to form a predetermined clearance, a paper-sheet separating pad 3 disposed in sliding contact with the pickup roller 1 to pick up the paper placed on the standby position one by one, and a pickup arm 4 that can be driven to be moved upward when setting paper sheets and downward when feeding paper sheets to push from above the paper sheets stacked on a chute 13 near a paper-sheet feed port. The pickup arm 4,when brought into free state as the planetary gear 5 disengages from the drive power transmission system, pushes paper sheets with a pushing force that increases with increases in the number of paper sheets stacked on the chute 13.

The invention relates to cache apparatuses and a control method for managing cache memories in a multiprocessor system. A cache controller holds data which has to be invalidated for a cache coherence as data in a status where the validity is unknown, causes a cache hit in response to a reading request from a processor, provides the data as speculation data, and allows the processor to speculatively process the data. Therefore, since the data which has to be obtained from another cache or a main storage due to the invalidation is held in an Unknown status, a cache hit occurs. Thus, a data waiting time of the processor can be shortened.

Disclosed is a disc player for obtaining a read signal from an optical disc having sectors including land and groove tracks and ID regions, preformatted at given angular spatial intervals, which demarcate the sectors and are segmented, in the track extending direction, into two regions, each segmented region including a plural number of recording regions and non-recording regions, which are alternately and radially arrayed while being radially shifted by approximately half a track pitch from the tracks of the sectors adjacent to the segmented regions, each recording region containing record position information recorded therein having predetermined time durations. The disc player comprises: optical read means for projecting a light beam onto the optical disc and receiving a light beam reflected from a recording surface of the optical disc; first and second signal generating means for generating first and second signals which are dependent on the record position information recorded in the recording regions of the first and second segmented regions by use of a signal output from the optical read means; and ID region detecting means for outputting a detecting signal indicating that the ID region is detected when the first and second signals are both present.

External connection electrodes can be positively mounted on a substrate when the pitch between the external connection electrodes is reduced and the diameter of each through hole formed in the substrate is reduced. A semiconductor chip is mounted on a first surface of a tape substrate. Electrode films are formed on the first surface of the tape substrate, each of the electrode films electrically connected to the semiconductor chip. External connection electrodes are provided on a second surface of the tape substrate, each of the external connection electrodes connected to a respective one of the electrode films via a through hole formed in the tape substrate. The external connection electrodes are formed on the electrode films by plating. A diameter S1 of a portion of each of the external connection electrodes protruding from the second surface of the tape substrate and a diameter S2 of the through hole satisfy a relationship S1≦S2.

A logic circuit performs a predetermined logic operation by supplying charge to an external load or pulling out charge therefrom according to a combination of the states of a plurality of externally inputted binary signals. The logic circuit includes a first transistor for supplying charge through an output terminal to the external load and a second transistor for pulling out the charge from the load through the output terminal. One of the first and second transistors is constituted by a MOS field-effect transistor having a drain connected to the output terminal. The MOS field-effect transistor has a source receiving an inverse signal inverse to a signal combined for logic operation with an input signal inputted to a gate of the MOS field-effect transistor. The number of the series transistors is reduced, resulting in an increase of the current capacity and in a reduction of the layout area. Adjacent ones of the logic circuits have a common source diffusion layer so that the load capacitance with respect to the inverse signal can be significantly reduced, thus enabling the high speed operation.

A camera shake correcting apparatus includes a variable angular prism assembly, a microcomputer to produce signals for driving the variable angular prism assembly, prism actuators, vertical angle sensors, angular velocity sensors for detecting an angular velocity caused by the camera shaking, and damping coils. The variable angular prism assembly is driven by a signal obtained by subtracting detected results of the vertical angle sensors from detected results of the angular velocity sensors. A damping coil is used to produce rotational angular velocity signals so that a nonlinearity of the prism can be alleviated. The phase margin of the servo characteristic of the prism drive system is increased, so that the camera shake correcting apparatus can be generally independent of variations in values and dimensions that occur in mass-production manufacturing operations and free of dependency on temperature characteristics.

An image forming apparatus having a device for moving a charging roller towards and away from a photoreceptor and a cleaning member for the charging roller. The charging roller moving device moves the charging roller to positions including a first position where the charging roller is in contact with the photoreceptor and is separated from the cleaning member for a charging operation, a second position where the charging roller is in contact with the cleaning member for cleaning the surface of the charging roller and a third position where the charging roller is separated from the photoreceptor and the cleaning member. Even if the apparatus is left unoperated for a long time, the photoreceptor is prevented from being contaminated by the charging roller by placing the charging roller in the third position.
