Patent EP-0762418-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KONISHI KATSUYUKI
IPC: G11B23/00
Filed: 1996-07-23
Abstract: A disk-use hub of the present invention is provided with a hub's main body to which a magnetic plate is attached, an energy director for ultrasonically joining the disk, and a center hole to which a disk-driving-use spindle is inserted. The hub's main body, the energy director and the circumferential edge of the center hole are integrally molded into one part from a hard synthetic resin with which an abrasion-resistant resin in fine powder form such as, for example, fluororesin is blended. Thus, the friction resistance of the circumferential edge of the center hole is reduced, and abrasion of the center hole is also reduced even after repeated inserting and removing operations of the spindle into and from the center hole. Moreover, when, for example, poly-tetra-fluoroethylene, which is easily available at low costs, is used as the fluororesin, it becomes possible to provide an inexpensive disk-use hub, and also to reduce the friction resistance of the circumferential edge of the center hole effectively.

Abstract: In a reference current generating circuit, a gate voltage of a MOS transistor for supplying a reference current, is controlled by a selected one of a plurality of different divided voltages obtained from a reference voltage by a resistor ladder circuit internally provided in an integrated circuit. Thus, it is possible to supply the reference current having a high precision and a high stability in relation to a variation of the threshold V T  of the MOS transistor caused by a variation in the manufacturing process and a temperature change. On the other hand, an external resistor, which was required in the prior art reference current generating circuit, is no longer necessary.

Abstract: A resin composition is provided that is suitable for impregnating sheet material, including fabrics, films, paper and tapes of the type employed to form prepregs, such as tapes used to form electrical insulation layers on electrical components. The resin composition includes a solid or semi-solid epoxy resin having an epoxide functionality of at least 2.5, a metal acetylacetonate for catalyzing the epoxy resin, and an accelerator of bisphenol A-formaldehyde novolac catalyzed by an acidic catalyst and having a hydroxyl equivalent weight of 120. The resin composition is essentially unreactive at room temperature and at elevated temperatures sufficient to enable permeation of the sheet material by the resin in its manufacture, is essentially unreactive at temperatures required to remove moisture and volatiles during processing of articles wrapped or taped with the sheet material, and cures at a higher temperature without adversely affecting the cure characteristics of the resin composition. The resin composition of this invention achieves the desirable reactivity characteristics noted above, while exhibiting enhanced mechanical, thermal and electrical properties necessary for its use within an electrical insulation composite.

Abstract: A method for forming a conductive vias in a non-conductive substrate having a through-hole formed therein intermediate two side thereof. The method utilizes the steps of: applying gold paste to the through-hole so as to provide electrical conduction therethrough; and under firing the gold paste when a thin conductive film is present upon the substrate and fully firing the gold paste when no thin conductive film is present on the substrate. Under firing the gold paste when a thin-film is present upon the substrate prevents degradation of the thin conductive film. Subsequent processing of the gold paste assures the integrity and reliability thereof. Thus, the gold paste provides enhanced conductivity and improved reliability, as compared to contemporary thin-film vias.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un récepteur pour la réception de signaux d'un premier type, par exemple les signaux TV et de signaux de réception d'un second type, par exemple des signaux radio FM. Le récepteur peut être utilisé pour des applications multimédias. Dans le récepteur, une section d'entrée TVIN, FMIN, SWIN comprend au moins deux entrées TVIN, FMIN auxquelles on peut appliquer des signaux de réception. Une entrée TVIN peut, par exemple, être couplée à un réseau câblé par lequel sont distribués les signaux. Une autre entrée FMIN  peut, par exemple, être utilisée pour enficher une antenne à un fil. Dans beaucoup de cas, une telle antenne sera suffisante pour une réception de signaux aériens d'une qualité acceptable. L'invention prend également en considération le fait que la réception des signaux aériens ne peut pas toujours être assurée par le réseau câblé. L'existence d'au moins deux entrées (TVIN, FMIN) assure la flexibilité de la réception.

Abstract: When a second mobile machine (#2) requests the communication of priority data with a base station (#1) while a first mobile machine (#1) conducts the communication of non-priority data with the base station (#1), the base station (#1) transmits wait information to the first mobile machine (#1) by using a down link control channel (Cn DOWN ) to control the first mobile machine (#1) to the waiting state and allocates the down link control channel (Cn DOWN ) to the second mobile machine (#2) to control the second mobile machine (#2) to conduct the communication of the priority data. When the communication of the priority data with the second mobile machine (#2) is completed, the base station (#1) transmits communication resumption information to the waiting first mobile machine (#1) by using the down link control channel (Cn DOWN ) to resume the communication of the non-priority data.

Abstract: The device has a controller (A) with a stored code on the access side, a user key (B) containing a transponder (T) and a comparator (V) in the controller which determines validity for releasing the access device by comparing the information transmitted by the transponder with information in the controller. The controller stores a secret key and a user code which are placed in the key transponder. The information transmitted by the transponder consists of the user code encoded with the secret key. The key contains a comparator coupled with lock bits for the secret key so that a partial release is effected to enable overwriting of the secret key stored in the key, if the further comparator detects coincidence between the transmitted user code and a stored user code.
