To provide a nonvolatile storage device and control method thereof which improve convenience of portable devices by shortening initialization time. In generating a data validity table at initialization, a control part firstly reads out a validity flag and a second translation table. In the case where the validity flag is valid, logical blocks in the second translation table are valid. For that reason, the fourth table generation means can set all logical blocks in the second translation table as being valid, in the data validity table. In a single reading as mentioned above, the fourth table generation means can carry out setting with respect to a plurality of logical blocks. Further, with respect to a partial logical block which is set as being valid in the data validity table, it is possible to bypass reading out the data validity flag of the block and proceed to operation of next partial logical block.

The present invention provides a method of performing terminal insert molding in which the correct position of the hoop terminal is maintained and any deformation thereof is prevented until its integration with the synthetic resin is attained, and an insert molding apparatus in which the hoop terminal is reliably inserted into predetermined grooves of the mold, making it always possible to secure accurate alignment of the hoop terminal with the mold. According to the terminal row insert molding method, on one side of a carrier base plate for conveying terminal materials to a processing position of an insert molding machine, a predetermined number of terminals to be subjected to insert molding are formed at a minute pitch alternately with and parallel to open grooves and are grouped into terminal rows, each terminal row being composed of an intermediate portion near the carrier base plate and a free end far from the carrier base plate, in which, in performing successive bending on the intermediate portion through intermittent feeding by a conveying mechanism for forward feeding, a dummy terminal plate, which binds the free ends for each feeding pitch of the conveying mechanism, is bonded to forward end portions of the free ends not affected by the bending with connecting means allowing separation along the feeding direction.

When a file system control part 155A writes file data into a main memory 142, a file can be easily written continuously and the number of file copy can be decreased at updating a directory entry by writing the file data and a directory entry into different allocation units. In this manner, when using a nonvolatile memory in which physical block size as an erase unit is larger than cluster size, the write performance can be enhanced.

When an LED lighting apparatus which is a lighter load than an incandescent lamp or halogen lamp is connected to a dimmer, a malfunction may occur. The invention prevents the occurrence of such malfunction without defeating the purpose of low power consumption of the LED lighting apparatus. More specifically, the LED lighting apparatus includes a rectifier circuit, a light-emitting circuit connected to the rectifier circuit and containing a single or a plurality of LEDs in which current begins to flow when an output voltage of the rectifier circuit exceeds a threshold voltage, and a bypass circuit having a bypass path for making the current flow to the rectifier circuit without passing through the light-emitting circuit, and a detecting unit for detecting the current flowing through the light-emitting circuit, and wherein when the current detected by the detecting unit exceeds a predetermined value, the bypass circuit shuts off the current flowing through the bypass path.
