An adjustment device adapted to glasses each including two polarization filters having adjustable transmission axes varying an angle therebetween in a front view is constituted of a physical parameter receiving unit for receiving at least one physical parameter which is produced by measuring the user's body, an angle calculation unit for calculating a target angle to be formed between the transmission axes of the polarization filters based on the received physical parameter, and a polarization filter adjustment unit for rotating at least one of the polarization filters, thus making the present angle formed between the transmission axes of the polarization filters agree with the target angle. Thus, it is possible to reduce a load or strain imparted to a user's eyes in light of the user's fatigued condition.

A first and a second charging circuit each having a diode and a capacitor are connected to a buffer. In the first charging circuit, an overshoot based on a reflected signal generated by an output signal is stored as an electric charge to the capacitor, and in the second charging circuit, an undershoot based on a reflected signal generated by an input signal is charged as an electric charge to the capacitor, whereby the energy of the overshoot and the like is recovered. These charges are collected in the charging circuit, stored in the capacitor, converted into a power supply voltage of an internal power supply by a stabilization circuit, and are supplied as an internal power supply. The reflected energy of the signal generated during signal transmission at the time of data transfer between semiconductor devices is stored, and the stored energy is used in driving the signals.

In a battery exchange system for facilitating exchange at appropriate intervals of a chargeable battery with another fully charged chargeable battery for charging, a user device having characteristic identification information reads a serial number from a battery when the battery is installed and transmits to a control device correspondence information in which the identification information and the serial number have been placed in correspondence with each other. A charging device reads the serial number from a battery when charging of the battery has been completed and transmits the serial number to the control device. The control device calculates a scheduled charging time of the battery having the serial number that has been transmitted from the charging device based on the time of reception of the correspondence information that was transmitted from user device and, before the calculated scheduled charging time, carries out notification prompting battery exchange.

A bus driver circuit includes a diode, a resistor, a constant voltage source, a constant voltage comparing circuit, the first output buffer circuit, the second output buffer circuit. An anode of the diode is connected to a power source, whereas a cathode thereof is connected to an end of the resistor. The other end of the resistor is connected to the ground. The constant voltage source applies, to the voltage comparing circuit, a reference voltage, which is substantially identical with a voltage of the cathode included in the diode when a temperature of the first output buffer circuit becomes a temperature Tcr at which a ringing event occurs in an output signal from the bus driver circuit. The voltage comparing circuit compares the reference voltage and the voltage of the cathode. The voltage comparing circuit outputs a control signal to the first output buffer circuit in accordance with the compared result. Both of the first and second output buffer circuits are connected to a signal output terminal to be connected to a bus and a signal input terminal connected to a signal processor. The first output buffer circuit is a three state buffer circuit. While the bus driver circuit is being operated, the voltage comparing circuit compares the voltage of the cathode and the reference voltage. When the voltage of the cathode is equal to or above the reference voltage, that is, when the temperature of the first output buffer circuit becomes equal to or above the temperature Tcr, the voltage comparing circuit outputs, to the first output buffer circuit, a control signal for inactivating the first output buffer circuit. The first output buffer circuit is inactivated when the control signal is input thereto.

Lower and upper limit float switches 15a and 15b for detecting the liquid level in high-temperature separator 14, orifice portion 18 and float-associated valve V1 parallel to the orifice portion are provided, with the orifice portion being provided on circulation pipe K2 extending from the gas-liquid separator in a position either upstream or downstream of high-temperature heat exchanger 17. The float-associated valve is closed when the liquid level drops to the lower limit thereof and it is opened when the liquid level rises to the upper limit thereof. During normal operation of the cooling apparatus, the flowing of steam from the gas-liquid separator into the heat exchanging unit can be prevented to ensure smooth passage of the solution. In a diluting operation, the head of the gas-liquid separator suffices to ensure an adequate flow of the solution in spite of the small pressure difference, thereby assuring the diluting operation to proceed smoothly.

A bus driver includes a plurality of first to m-th buffer circuits for receiving input of an input signal, a delay circuit for delaying the input signal by a predetermined time period, an n-th buffer circuit for receiving input of a delay signal from the delay circuit, a capacitor for selectively receiving input of a predetermined combination of the output signals of the first to m-th buffer circuits, and an output terminal for outputting a signal composed of the output of the capacitor and the output signal of said n-th buffer circuit. As a result of composition of a plurality of signals output from the capacitive portion and the signal output from the n-th buffer circuit, a plurality of output signals each having different rise time and fall time are output from the output terminal.
摘要:
In a bus system of a computer, an enable pulse is propagated through different signal paths and bus drivers so that it takes different amounts of time to reach a common bus. Each bus driver has a tristate output buffer connected to the bus, a delay circuit and an AND gate for receiving an enable pulse from one of the signal paths. The input terminal of the delay circuit is also connected to receive the same enable pulse for introducing a predetermined amount of delay to the enable pulse and supplying the delayed pulse to the AND gate, so that the delayed pulse is truncated at the trailing edge of the enable pulse directly supplied to the AND gate. The output terminal of the AND gate is connected to the enable/disable input terminal of the tristate output buffer for enabling it with the delayed and truncated enable pulse. The amounts of delays introduced in the bus drivers are manually set so that the delayed pulses would arrive at nearly the same time at the respective output buffers if they were simultaneously transmitted.
摘要:
A bus driver includes differentiating and delay circuits connected together in parallel. The differentiating circuit receives an input signal via a first buffer circuit and produces a first signal having a falling and rising period. The delay circuit delays the input signal to produce a second signal output via a second buffer circuit. The second signal is delayed so that the second signal begins falling after the first signal starts falling and so that second signal begins rising after the first signal starts rising. The first and second signals are combined to produce an output signal. The preceding edge of the output signal is rounded because the relatively short falling of the first signal precedes the relatively long falling of the second signal. The following edge of the output signal is rounded because the short rising of the first signal suppresses an end portion of the long falling of the second signal. The waveform of the output signal is adjustable by changing parameters such as, for example, the delay time of the delay circuit, the capacitance of the capacitor and the power of the first and second buffer circuits.
