A liquid crystal display (LCD) device's microcontroller is used drive an LCD lamp ballast such that the scrolling effect from its light leakage may be reduced to a visually imperceptible level. A check may be performed of lamp's control status in order to verify the microcontroller's ability to properly and accurately control the lamp ballast. The microcontroller may then determine a frequency and duty cycle to use for the microcontroller's PWM control signal. Thereafter, the microcontroller may generate the PWM control signal in accordance with the determined frequency and duty cycle, and drive the lamp ballast using the control signal.

A D/A conversion circuit for performing D/A conversion at high speeds. The D/A conversion circuit includes a resistor string including a plurality of resistor elements connected between a low-potential power supply and a high-potential power supply. A plurality of first switch groups are connected to the connection nodes between the resistor elements for selectively outputting voltages at the connection nodes. The outputs of the switches of the first switch groups are connected in common to a corresponding one of the nodes. The plurality of nodes are connected to an output terminal of the D/A conversion circuit via a second switch group. Predetermined switches of the first switch groups are connected in parallel to third switches to apply voltages to the nodes.

A wiper device of a liquid ejection apparatus includes a first wiper that wipes a nozzle surface defined in a liquid ejection head, a second wiper that wipes a side surface of the liquid ejection head extending in a direction intersecting the nozzle surface, and a drive mechanism that drives the first and second wipers to move between respective standby positions and wiping positions. The second wiper is formed separately from a cap that seals the nozzle surface of the liquid ejection head. The drive mechanism operates to move the second wiper to the corresponding wiping position independently from the first wiper. In this manner, independent wiping of the side surface of the liquid ejection head is performed when desired.

Cartridge total weight SN of an ink bag filled with ink is measured. Ink weight SU of ink stored in the ink bag is calculated from the found cartridge total weight SN (step S17). The ink weight SU is converted into a printable amount and this printable amount is stored in an IC chip as an initial value Sc for calculating a remaining amount (step S19). A printer reads the initial value Sc for calculating the remaining amount from the IC chip, subtracts the ink consumption amount from the initial value Sc for calculating the remaining amount to calculate a new ink remaining amount, and stores the calculated ink remaining amount in the IC chip.

The invention provides a thin film magnetic head including an upper core layer 9 which comprises a front first core layer 91a formed on a gap spacer layer 6 and having the same width as a track width on the recording medium at least in the vicinity of the face to be opposed to a recording medium, and a second core layer 92 extending from the medium-opposed face over the upper surface of the front first core layer 91a and further over the upper surface of an upper insulating layer 72. The upper core layer 9 has a thickness greater in a region extending from the medium-opposed face to a depth end restricting face DE of a lower insulating layer 71 than in a region extending over the upper surface of the upper insulating layer 72. The front first core layer 91a has an upper surface flush with the upper surface of the lower insulating layer 71. This structure gives an accurate track width and assures production with a high yield.
摘要:
The lower core layer 7 is formed in approximately constant thickness at the portion confronting the upper core layer so that its thickness gradually reduces toward its side edge. Therefore, the thickness of the layer of the non-magnetic material 8 formed on the lower core layer 7 becomes uniform, stabilizing the coil layer formed thereon. An excellent material of soft magnetic materials can be used since the lower core layer 7 is formed by sputtering, enabling to record at a high frequency.
