Abstract: A sheet type key top of a push button switch which is disposed over a
switch contact used for the input portion of a portable electric appliance or
a machine control portion or the like, and through which the underlying
switch is depressed to turn it on or off. In the present invention, a film on

Abstract: A method is disclosed for manufacturing block
copolymers containing a polyorganosiloxane segment, by dual
polymerization involving (i) polycondensation of a silicone
block followed by (ii) the free radical polymerization of a
monomer that can be polymerized by free radical
polymerization, such as a vinyl containing organic monomer.
Initiation of free radical polymerization in step (ii) is
carried out with a carbonyl functional group attached to the
silicone polymer block. The carbonyl functional silicone
polymer, preferably an aldehyde functional silicone polymer,
is included as one component of a copper-based Redox
initiating system. Our method ensures no free
homopolymerization, complete reactivity and various polymer
architectures are possible including, for example, polymeric
structures such as AB, ABA, (AB) n , brush and radiant types.
The method is fast, effective, convenient and easier to
control than typical ionic polymerization techniques. The
silicone-organic block copolymers obtained by this process
have utility as polymeric surfactants or as solubility
modifiers.

Abstract: A method of increasing the brightness of a pulse width
modulation display system. Image bits are displayed during
display periods having a non-binary relationship. The display
period of an object bit 902 is set equal to a minimum data load
time, and the display periods of all other bits are initially
set to have a binary relationship with the object bit. The
display periods of at least one non-object bit 904, 906, 908 are
then reduced in order to reduce the total frame time to no more
than the available useable frame time 910. Preferably, only the
display periods of bit of significance greater than the object
bit are reduced. The reduction of display periods is guided by
Weber's law, in order to prevent the non-binary steps from being
noticeable or objectionable to the viewer.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for stabilizing or otherwise controlling wavelength in
tunable semiconductor lasers and other optical sources. A tunable semiconductor laser
includes a gain section and at least one tuning section. Spontaneous emission (SE)
from the tuning section is detected and used in a feedback control loop to control the
amount of current applied to the tuning section. The SE may be detected using an
integrated detector on the semiconductor laser chip, an external detector arranged
adjacent the chip to detect SE emitted from a side of the tuning section, or an external
detector arranged to detect SE coupled from an optical fiber or other signal line
connected to an optical signal output of the laser. The feedback control loop may
operate to maintain the detected SE at a constant level, such that the current applied to
the tuning section is adjusted to compensate for the effects of aging and the laser
output wavelength is thereby stabilized. The invention may also be implemented using
multiple feedback control loops to control the current supplied to corresponding
multiple tuning sections of a given optical source. Each of the multiple feedback
control loops may operate to maintain the SE detected from a corresponding one of the
tuning sections at a constant level, such that the output wavelength is stabilized.

Abstract: When program data is downloaded through a broadcast
wave, the program is prevented from being kept incomplete
due to degradation of a reception state. When new program
information is detected, a C/N value is observed. It is
determined whether the observed C/N value is a specified
value or more. If the C/N value is the specified value or
more, a program for download control is executed. It is
determined whether the download process is ended. The
download process is executed until the download process is
ended. Since the download process is executed after it is
confirmed that the C/N is preferable, a risk that the
downloading is interrupted due to degradation of the
reception state in the middle of the download process can
be avoided.

Abstract: A current to voltage conversion circuit is formed of a
differential amplifier circuit (1) with a negative input terminal
connected to a light receiving element (3) and a register (4) which
feeds back an output signal to the negative input terminal of the
differential amplifier circuit (1) thereof. The variable gain
amplifier circuit (5) amplifies the output voltage of the current
to voltage conversion circuit to detect the bottom value of the
output signal thereof. The comparator circuit (7) compares the
bottom value with the reference value Vrl so that current flowing
through the resistor (4) can be adjusted according to the
difference between the bottom value and the reference value Vrl.
The offset of the output signal from the variable gain amplifier
circuit (5) supplied through the output terminal OUT is thereby
adjusted. Since the peak value of the output signal of the
variable gain amplifier circuit (5) is detected and the gain of
the variable gain amplifier circuit (5) is controlled according
to the difference between the peak value and the reference value
Vr2, an output signal of a predetermined level can be obtained.
