A charge pump circuit is disclosed in which a spike-shaped noise (glitch) generated in an output is reduced. The charge pump circuit comprises: a first transistor, one of the terminals of which is connected to a high electric potential power source, turned on and off according to a charge-up signal; a second transistor, one of the terminals of which is connected to a low electric potential power source, turned on and off according to a charge-down signal; a first current restricting element connected between the other terminal of the first transistor and the output of a charge pump; and a second current restricting element connected between the other terminal of the second transistor and the output of the charge pump.

A control signal that runs a control oscillator of a signal generation circuit that generates a write clock is taken as a reference signal. That reference signal is supplied to a signal generation circuit that generates a read clock. In the signal generation circuit that generates the read clock, there is no need to generate a reference signal within its own circuits, which makes it possible to supply it to a control oscillator by adding the error timing from reading out the signal against the supplied reference signal. In this way, no means for locking the read clock into the initial frequency is needed and neither is the time for locking the read clock to the initial frequency (lock up time). This makes it possible to reduce the size of the circuit and to reduce the signal read-out time.

A focus range is determined on the basis of an object distance, focal distance, and aperture value, after an autofocus operation. When SW2 is operated, an exposure is performed only during a period that a displacement of a blur in an optical-axis direction is within the focus range. If an exposure time for one exposure does not reach an exposure time to obtain an optimum exposure, a plurality of exposures are performed until a total exposure time reaches the exposure time to obtain the optimum exposure. When the plurality of exposures are performed, a plurality of images obtained are combined to generate an image with the optimum exposure.

A small-sized printer includes a printing section equipped with a shuttle head in which impact-type printing units are arranged in juxtaposition in a sub-scanning direction, a cylindrical cam for reciprocating the shuttle head in the sub-scanning direction, and paper feeding rollers for feeding a standard sheet in a main scanning direction; an input device for inputting information; a display device for displaying information; a RAM for storing information; and a CPU for controlling the printing section, the input section, the display device and the RAM and performing calculation on information. The printing section and the paper feeding rollers are provided in a body case in such a way as to be exposed where they are opposed to a case cover, which has a flat platen and spring members at positions opposed to the printing section, and ribs adapted to come into contact with the standard sheet and serving as a positioning device and as a sliding guide. The printing section provided in the body case has protrusions adapted to abut against the surface of the flat platen on the case cover. Spring members are provided to resiliently bias the flat platen against the protrusions, with a space being secured behind the flat platen.

An image taking apparatus installed with an image blur correction unit for correcting image blur by combining images, so image taking time in a case of continuous shooting of the images is prevented from being long and operations are carried out in a manner in which a photographer does not feel disorder. Combination of a second frame and a third frame that are taken with split-exposure is started from a frame that is prior by two frames in terms of time. Thereby the number of times of split-exposure operations necessary to obtain three combined images is eight, so the image taking time is made to be shorter compared to a case of simple continuous combination of the images. Further, the three combined images produced in this way include a portion overlapped in terms of time, however, the combined images are images different from one another that are continuous in terms of time, so the photographer does not feel disorder as long as setting is made as to how many frames are shifted for combination.
摘要:
A trans-conductance filter circuit with an expanded cut-off frequency range is provided. The cut-off frequency of a trans-conductance filter circuit is changed by varying the current mirror ratio of a current mirror circuit. This mirror ratio is varied by changing the output current of a constant current source, or by switching among the respective action states of multiple transistors the actions of which are invoked within constant current regions. The variable cut-off frequency range can be expanded without losing the constant current attributes of the transistors.
