IPC: G01N27/12
Filed: 2000-04-18
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify the structure of an analytical apparatus, capable of obtaining a concentration signal of a measuring component by removing the influence of interfering components in a sample. SOLUTION: A heater 3 and a Peltier element 4 are arranged around a semiconductor sensor 2 for gas analysis, and a sample gas is measured at two different temperatures by the semiconductor sensor 2. Two kinds of gains (a first gain and a second gain) and a correction coefficient are obtained beforehand relative to the semiconductor sensor 2. One concentration signal adjusted by the second gain is substracted from the other concentration signal which is adjusted by the first gain, and the obtained numerical value is multiplied by the correction coefficient, to thereby obtained the concentration signal of carbon monoxide from which the influence of methane in the sample gas is removed. Since only one semiconductor sensor 2 is used, the constitution is miniaturized and simplified.

Title: Controller for luminance of led
Inventor: HASEGAWA MASAMI
IPC: H05B37/02
Filed: 2000-05-02
Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To control so as to maintain the visibility of an LED(light emitting diode) display as much as possible while attaining a long life of LED elements. SOLUTION: The ambient temperature of an LED element 12 is detected by a temperature sensor 14 and when the luminance control circuit 16 of this controller judges that the ambient temperature exceeds a first reference temperature (60 deg.C), the controller controls so as to reduce the light emission luminance of the LED element 12 at a fixed rate by changing a duty ratio while thinning out the driving signal at a fixed rate. The controller continues a lighting control in a state in which the luminance of the element 12 is reduced until the ambient temperature of the element 12 becomes a temperature equal to or lower than a second reference temperature (30 deg.C) by detecting the ambient temperature with the sensor 14.  When the ambient temperature is lowered to a temperature equal to or lower than the second reference temperature, the controller performs control so as to return the duty ratio to the original state in order to light the element 12 with a normal luminance. Moreover, when the element 12 is lighted with the normal luminance and the ambient temperature of the element 12 becomes a temperature equal to or higher than the first reference temperature, the controller repeats the control to reduce the luminance of the element 12 at the fixed rate by changing the duty ratio again.
