Abstract:
A power conversion apparatus includes a power-conversion circuit unit that includes at least two voltage-type bridge circuits of an upper and lower arm configuration including switching elements connected in series, each of the switching elements including a transistor and a free wheel diode connected to the transistor in inverse parallel. Each of the voltage-type bridge circuits is configured to include, as the free wheel diodes: a SiC-SBD (SiC-Schottky-Barrier Diodes) in both upper and lower arms; a SiC-SBD only in the upper arm; a SiC-SBD only in the lower arm; or a diode other than the SiC-SBD in both the upper and lower arms; and the power-conversion circuit unit is configured by combining at least two configurations among the four configurations for the voltage-type bridge circuits.

Abstract:
An apparatus capable of detecting with improved accuracy a motion vector representing an object moved on a picture plane comprises a memory section for storing an input picture signal renewed for every predetermined time interval, a spatial filter section for applying a spatial band limitation to two signal portions of the renewed picture signal stored in the memory, which signal portions corresponding to the different time intervals, and a detecting section including at least one detecting stage for detecting the motion vector in accordance with the gradient method on the basis of the two picture signals and a minute value to be added to a gradient determined from one reference picture signal represented by one of the two picture signals.
