A serial control apparatus includes a main controller (2) and a plurality of nodes (3) each serving as an auxiliary controller normally serially arranged on a loop-shaped signal transmission line (1). Each node (3) extracts data for the present node among from the data delivered from the main controller (2) as time elapses so as to allow the terminal units (A) associated with the present node to be properly controlled. In addition, the node inserts the output data from the terminal units (A) into a time slot corresponding to the present node and then delivers to the signal transmission line (1) the output data which in turn are transferred to the main controller (2) via other nodes on the downstream side. To assure that the data extracting circuit operates properly, two latching circuits, i.e., first and second latching circuits (311, 312 to 315) are serially arranged in a signal passage by way of which the extracted data are fed to a driver (316) for the corresponding terminal units.

For arithmetically combining the values of two numbers, for example adding and subtracting, comprising a data deletion system for deleting values from input data and outputting the result. The system has a deletion number detection apparatus for finding a value on the basis of input data and output data, wherein an output data number setting device sets the bits of an output data number to be all "1" in logical value prior to sending that number to a down counter which subtracts the output number from the input number for the result.

This apparatus for carrying out serial control comprises a plurality of node controllers each including a group of sensors (21S to 2nS), a group of actuators (21A to 2nA) or the like terminal components and a main controller for controlling the node controllers and the terminal components in an annular configuration or in a daisychain-shaped configuration. The main controller sends a frame signal which includes a first identification code (STI) indicative of the head position of sensor data and a second identification code (STO) indicative of the head position of actuator controlling data in one frame. Each node controller including a group of sensors feeds its own sensor data to a location just behind the first identification code of the received frame signal and sends to the subsequent stage the frame signal delayed by a length of the sensor data having the received frame signal fed thereto, subsequent to the signal having the sensor data fed thereto. Further, each node controller including a group of actuators extracts its own actuator control data from a location just behind a second identification code of the received frame signal and then sends the frame signal having the actuator control data extracted therefrom, subsequent to the frame signal which has been delayed by a length equivalent to the actuator control data having the received frame signal extracted therefrom.

A serial controller in which nodes to which are connected one or a plurality of sensors and one or a plurality of actuators are connected in series in the form of a closed loop including a main controller which sends data frame signals including a first special code, a second special code and output data for the actuators. Each of the nodes adds the data received from its associated sensor to the end of the first special code and picks up the output data for its associated actuator from the end of the second special code. The main controller controls the interval for sending the data frame signals depending upon the number of sensors and the number of actuators detected based on the initial frame signal that includes the first special code, the second special code and data for detecting the number of actuators, in order to improve the transmission efficiency and to carry out the control in real time.

A saturable reactor is in a conductive state or has a magnetic switching function depending on the direction of the current flowing through it. Also provided is a power source apparatus for pulse laser utilizing the satiable reactor. The saturable reactor comprises a saturable magnetic core (1); a principal coil (2) wound around the saturable magnetic core (1); a subsidiary coil (3) wound around the saturable magnetic core (1); and a power source (4) which feeds electric current (ib) to the subsidiary coil (3) when the transition of the saturable magnetic core (1) from unsaturated state to saturated state is effected by the subsidiary coil (3) wherein the saturable magnetic core (1) becomes saturated state immediately when a current (i2) is applied to the principal coil (2) in a direction same as the current flowing in the subsidiary magnetic coil (3), while becoming the saturated state from an initial unsaturated state at the time when a product of the voltage and time reaches a predetermined value if a current (i1) is applied to the principal coil (2) in a direction opposite to the current flowing in the subsidiary magnetic coil (3).

A device is provided to prevent erroneous operation of an object to be controlled connected to the controller if the clock is interrupted. When a clock monitoring unit (15) detects that no clock pulse signal (CL) is generated from a clock generating unit (14) in a controller (10), a D flip-flop (13) is forcibly turned off, so that no drive signal is given to the actuator that is the object to be controlled. Moreover, a clock monitoring unit (42) in a controller (40) detects whether a clock pulse signal (CK1) is being sent from a controller of the preceding stage or not. When the clock pulse signal (CK1) is being received, the clock monitoring unit (42) sends the clock pulse signal (CK1) to the actuator that is the object to be controlled via a data processing unit (44). When the clock pulse signal (CK1) is not detected, a clock pulse signal (CK2) of a self clock generating unit (41) is sent to the actuator that is the object to be controlled via the data processing unit (44).

To reduce the number of signal lines for connecting an current detector and a solenoid electrically.Between solenoids 1-1 and 1-2 and switches SW-1 and SW-2 and on the high sides with respect to the individual solenoids, respectively, there are connected current detectors 4-1 and 4-2. The end portions of the solenoids 1-1 and 1-2 on the individual GND sides are made common. The number of signal lines for connecting a controller and the two solenoids may be “2+1=3”. Therefore, the number of terminals (or the pin number) of a connector 3 may also be “2+1=3” (P1 to P3). The current detectors 4-1 and 4-2 detect the electric currents to flow to the solenoids 1-1 and 1-2. In the case of an incomplete grounding, for example, it is possible to detect an overcurrent to flow to the solenoids.

An inductive load drive device comprising a DC--DC converter circuit which has a coil (L) and switch (Sw) in series with a power source (E) and a capacitor (C) provided in parallel with the switch (Sw). The DC--DC converter produces a high voltage by a procedure in which the switch (Sw) is closed to apply the power source voltage to the coil (L) and then the switch (Sw) is opened to transfer the magnetic energy stored in the coil (L) to the capacitor (C). Using a permanent magnet (Mg), a bias in the direction opposite to that of the magnetic flux induced by the current is applied to the magnetic core of the coil (L) so as to increase the magnetic energy stored in the coil (L). Thus, a DC--DC converter circuit in which a capacitor is efficiently charged through a small-sized coil is realized, and an inductive load drive device having a small size and a light weight is also realized.

An apparatus for carrying out serial control includes a single main controller and a plurality of node controllers for directly controlling a variety of sensors and actuators. The node controllers are serially connected to the main controller. The main controller receives a data signal row which is successively transferred through the node controllers and then indirectly and centrally controls sensor data derived from the sensors, as well as actuator control data transmitted to the actuators. Data is transmitted from the data signal row to the sensors or the actuator to be controlled and vice versa in each node controller. An error code is added to the data signal row which is to be transferred to a succeeding port under logic conditions indicating the occurrence of an error. The occurrence of an error is confirmed by inspecting an error check code which is previously added to the data signal row to check whether an error has or has not occurred between the node controllers. The error code for indicating the occurrence of error is added to the data signal row which is inputted into the relevant node controller.
