A multilayer PTC thermistor reliably decreases the resistance by decreasing the thickness of ceramic layers composed of a BaTiO3 semiconductor ceramic and achieves a resistance close to the resistance calculated from the multilayer structure. The thermistor is adjusted to satisfy the conditions 5≦X≦18 and 4≦X·Y≦10, wherein X is a thickness (μm) of each ceramic layer disposed between adjacent internal electrodes and Y is a donor content (%) in the barium titanate semiconductor ceramic constituting the ceramic layers, Y being expressed in terms of (number of donor atoms/number of Ti atoms)×100.

摘要:
Disclosed herein is an information recording/reproducing apparatus that includes a first and a second recording/reproducing modules, a buffer memory to store information temporally, and a control module that switches between a first mode and a second mode when the information is dubbed from the first recording/reproducing module to the second recording/reproducing module. In the first mode, information in the first recording/reproducing module is reproduced and stored in the buffer memory. In the second mode, the information stored in the buffer memory is recorded in the second recording/reproducing module. The apparatus further includes a temperature detecting module. Depending on the temperature detected by this module, the apparatus changes the movement of the second recording/reproducing module in the first mode and the movement of the first recording/reproducing module in the second mode.
摘要:
In order to record content on a hard disk drive to a source, when a source icon corresponding to the hard disk drive is dragged in a source icon section on a control bar in a display window, an arrow is added above an available source icon corresponding to an MD drive to which the content read from the hard disk drive can be supplied and recorded. An unavailable source icon corresponding to a source to which the content cannot be supplied and recorded is displayed in a grayed-out manner. When the dragged source icon is dropped onto the source icon corresponding to the MD drive, the content on the hard disk drive is read, and is recorded to an MD inserted in the MD drive.
摘要:
An inverter apparatus includes an inverter circuit, a temperature sensor, and a control circuit. The inverter circuit is driven by a PWM signal and includes switching elements that are divided in first and second groups. The temperature sensor detects a temperature of at least one of the switching elements of the first group. The control circuit controls a duty cycle of the PWM signal such that a first value of heat generated in the first group is equal to or greater than a second value of heat generated in the second group. The control circuit performs an overheat protection for protecting the inverter circuit from overheating when the detected temperature is equal to or greater than a threshold temperature.
摘要:
In a secondary air injection system, MOSFETs control supply of electric current to an air pump and to a motor for driving an electromagnetic valve and to an electromagnetic coil to introduce secondary air into an exhaust gas passage upstream of a catalyst for purifying the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine. Gate drive circuits control the MOSFETs based on an instruction from an ECU via input signal processing circuits. Abnormal conditions in the operation for controlling the air pump and the electromagnetic valve are detected, and, when an abnormal condition is detected, forcibly turn the MOSFETs off to interrupt the current to the motor and to the electromagnetic coil. A diagnosing circuit sends to the ECU diagnosis signals representing the state of controlling the load.
