    摘要: An image pickup apparatus includes an image sensor configured to include a plurality of pixels in its image pickup area; a plurality of analog-to-digital converters configured to share a plurality of analog signals read out from the plurality of pixels to perform analog-to-digital conversion to the analog signals allocated thereto; and a control unit configured to read out the analog signals from the pixels within a partial area in the image pickup area for the analog-to-digital conversion. The number of pixels allocated to the analog-to-digital converters performing the analog-to-digital conversion to areas near a center position of the partial area is smaller than that allocated to the analog-to-digital converters performing the analog-to-digital conversion to areas far from the center position of the partial area.

    摘要: An electronic apparatus having a cable connector unit that makes it possible to attach and detach a connector for connecting a cable for the purpose of performing data communication with an external apparatus includes a lock mechanism for maintaining a connection with the connector in a lock state. The electronic apparatus is capable of detecting a predetermined specific operation on the attached connector. If the specific operation is detected, then pre-processing necessary to detach the connector safely is executed. By releasing the lock mechanism in response to completion of pre-processing, the cable can be removed.

    摘要: A self-supporting thin film of silicon single crystal is produced essentially by the steps of implanting boron ions in a silicon single crystal substrate from one major surface thereof to form a high impurity concentration layer having a high boron concentration in the substrate; heating the silicon single crystal substrate formed with the high impurity concentration layer in an atmosphere containing oxygen to form an oxide film on the surface of the single crystal substrate and make the high impurity concentration layer resistant to etching; masking all of the oxide film surface other than that at the center region on the surface opposite from that implanted with boron ions and then exposing the high impurity concentration layer by high-speed mask etching followed by selective etching; and removing the oxide film.
