Abstract: A circuit capable of keeping input impedance constant is provided. Further, a circuit which can contribute to improvement in power feeding efficiency in power feeding by a magnetic resonance method is provided. A voltage (a former voltage) proportional to a direct-current voltage input to a DC-DC converter from the outside and a voltage (a latter voltage) proportional to a current input from the outside are detected, and the ratio of the former voltage and the latter voltage are held constant. Accordingly, input impedance can be kept constant. Further, impedance conversion is performed in the DC-DC converter. Thus, even when the battery in which power feeding is performed exists on an output side of the DC-DC converter, input impedance can be kept constant. Consequently, power can be supplied to a power receiving device including the DC-DC converter and the battery with high power feeding efficiency by a magnetic resonance method.

Abstract: The imaging device includes a pixel array and first to seventh circuits. The first and second circuits select a pixel in the pixel array. The third circuit performs difference calculation between imaging data of the first frame and the second frame in the selected pixels. The fourth and the fifth circuits output addresses of the row and column of the pixels which has been subjected to the difference calculation. A row address and a column address for determining a specific region of the pixel array are stored in the sixth circuit. The seventh circuit compares coordinates included in the specific region with coordinates of pixels where a difference is detected. If the coordinates of the pixels where a difference is detected are included in the specific region which has been stored in the sixth circuit, imaging data is obtained again and is output to the external devices.

Abstract: An object is to provide a power feeding system and a power feeding method which are more convenient for a power feeding user at the power receiving end, without causing increases in complexity and size of devices. An object is to provide a power feeding system and a power feeding method which also allow a power feeding provider (a company) which feeds power (at the power transmitting end) to supply power without waste. A power feeding device which wirelessly supplies power to a power receiver detects the position and the resonant frequency of the power receiver by receiving a position and resonant frequency detection signal using a plurality of sub-carriers having different frequencies from the power receiver, and controls the frequency of a power signal to be transmitted to the power receiver on the basis of the information. An efficient power feeding service can be offered by transmitting a power signal to the power receiver at an optimum frequency for high power transmission efficiency.
