The clock generator of this invention saves a buffer memory for the data transfer interface, which has conventionally been required, when using a spectrum spread clock in circuits and devices inside a system. The clock generator can easily be applied as the operational clock in a system, and enhances the performance of the system. In the clock generator, the variable delay circuit controls the phase of the reference clock generated by an oscillator. The delay setting circuit is able to vary the setting of the control voltage to the variable delay circuit at each clock cycle, and modulates the phase of the reference clock. The phase modulation means of the delay setting circuit fluctuates the cycle of the output modulation clock to thereby spread the spectrum. Also, the delay setting circuit detects the output states (edges of the clock) of delay elements of the variable delay circuit, and confines the phase difference of the reference clock and the modulated clock within a specified range (for example, half the cycle of the reference clock). Thereby, the clock generator guarantees a certain extent of synchronization in the spectrum spread clock.

A first receiving terminal and a second receiving terminal are connected to a first signal transmission line and a second signal transmission line, respectively, and receive the input of transmission signals. A first resistor and a second resistor convert current signals contained in the transmission signals into voltage. A comparator inputs the respective voltages converted by the first and the second resistor, and outputs, as an output signal, a voltage corresponding to a difference between their voltages. A first transistor connected to an end of the first resistor and a second transistor connected to an end of the second resistor reduce the variation in a transmission voltage signal due to the variation in the current signals contained in the transmission signals. A third transistor connected to the other end of the first resistor causes to drop power-supply voltage so as to generate a control signal. The control signal is turned into a gate voltage of the second transistor in a crosswise manner. A fourth transistor connected to the other end of the second resistor operates in the similar manner to the third transistor.

An electrode includes an electrically conductive matrix containing a disulfide group, wherein an S—S bond of the disulfide group is cleaved by electrochemical reduction and reformed by electrochemical oxidation. A plurality of carbon nanotubes are substantially disentangled and dispersed in the electrically conductive matrix. The electrode can be used as a cathode of a lithium battery. A method for producing disentangled carbon nanotubes includes the steps of: adding a plurality of aggregates of carbon nanotubes to a liquid; and providing sheer force (e.g. passing the liquid through a narrow gap at a high speed) onto the liquid for disentangling the aggregates of carbon nanotubes therein.

This invention provides an image input system capable of setting an arbitrary imaging inhibited area. This system displays a map showing the positions of cameras arranged in an office and the directions in which these cameras can be aimed, or displays the view angles of the cameras. An operator designates an imaging inhibited area on the map. In accordance with the designated imaging inhibited area, a limiting direction is calculated for each camera, and each camera is so controlled as not to point in that direction. Even when cameras are fixed, the system controls display so that an imaging inhibited area is not displayed.
