    摘要: Even when there is some degree of variation in the characteristics among components constituting a polyphase motor and a driving circuit therefor, current control signals of respective phases being input to the drive circuit have their amplitude finely adjusted by an amplitude control circuit, so that amplitude is uniform among armature currents of respective phases that are ultimately output from the drive circuit. The amplitude adjusting circuit is configured by gain variable amplifiers, for example. Thus, rotation fluctuation and vibration of the polyphase motor can be reduced.

    摘要: Allocation reading is started when an allocation origin image processing apparatus sends an allocation reading start alert. An image processing apparatus which received the allocation reading start alert, i.e., the allocation destination image processing apparatus, displays a continue reading specification key on its own display for user specification to continue reading by the allocation reading function. Continue reading is started by user operation of this continue reading specification key. That is, when a document image is read by the allocation destination image processing apparatus, the image data are transmitted to the allocation origin image processing apparatus. Then, the allocation origin image processing apparatus integrates the received image data with the image data read by the allocation origin image processing apparatus.

    摘要: A light modulation type photointerrupter includes: a light source that emits a light pulse to a transit area where an object transits; a driving circuit that drives the light source to emit the light pulse; a photoreceptor that converts the light pulse from the transit area into a pulse current and outputs the pulse current; an integrating circuit that integrates a pulse signal resulting from the pulse current and outputs a result of the integration, the integrating circuit having different time constants at a rise and at a fall of the pulse signal; and a detecting circuit that detects, based upon the output from the integrating circuit, presence or absence of the object in the transit area. The light source is driven to emit a pulse, which reduces the loss of power in the light emitter and the consumption of the current.
