    摘要: A direct-current power supply circuit, incorporated in an IC card, includes a coil for receiving an amplitude-modulated signal from an external device through electromagnetic induction. A full-wave rectifying circuit rectifies the amplitude-modulated signal received by the coil. The rectified output signal is used to charge a smoothing capacitor. A clamp circuit controls the terminal voltage of the smoothing capacitor to a predetermined level so as to produce a power supply voltage. The clamp circuit controls an output transistor to stabilize the power supply voltage to a constant level. Furthermore, the direct-current power supply circuit includes a short-circuit preventing circuit to forcibly turn off the output transistor when the electric potential difference between both ends of the coil is smaller than a predetermined value, thereby preventing the power supply voltage from suddenly decreasing due to delay of operation of the circuit elements when the coil output becomes zero due to amplitude modulation.

    摘要: A semiconductor strain sensor includes a base, a peripheral section, a central section and a flexible beam. The peripheral section is bent to the base. Bonding strain is generated at a bonding portion between the base and the peripheral section. The central section extends from the peripheral section. The flexible beam extends from the central section and includes a strain detecting element. The strain detecting element changes its electric characteristic when strain is applied thereto. A thickness of the flexible beam is thinner than that of the central section. The bonding strain is transmitted from the bonding portion to the strain detecting element through a transmission path. The transmission path is bent. The bonding strain is attenuated because it is dispersed at a bending portion of the transmission path. The sensor accurately detects the strain to be detected without a bad influence of the bonding strain.
