Abstract: An N-domino latch includes a domino stage, a write stage, an inverter, a high keeper path, a low keeper path, and an output stage. The domino stage is coupled to an approximately symmetric clock signal. The domino stage evaluates a logic function according to the states of at least one data signal and the approximately symmetric clock signal, where the domino stage pre-charges a pre-charged node high when the approximately symmetric clock signal is low, and discharges the pre-charged node to a low state if the logic function evaluates when the approximately symmetric clock signal is high, and keeps the pre-charged node high if the logic function fails to evaluate when the approximately symmetric clock signal is high, where a latching state of the at least one data signal is provided to the domino stage when the approximately symmetric clock signal is high.

Abstract: A game apparatus (3) moves an arrow object (72) in a virtual space, and then determines whether or not a hitting determination area (74) set for the arrow object (72) is in contact with a hitting determination area (73) set for a player character (71). When the two hitting determination areas (74, 73) are determined to be in contact with each other, the game apparatus (3) calculates a moving direction of the arrow object (72). The game apparatus (3) further causes the player character (71) to perform a motion such that at least a part of the player character (71) turns to a designated direction, which is an opposite direction to the moving direction of the arrow object (72). A display apparatus displays how the player character (71) performs the motion.

Abstract: A detection device (100), for detecting a strength of a magnetic field of an object (10), includes a housing (102) having a center (104), a first end (106) and a detection end (108). A permanent magnetic element (110) is suspended above the center of the housing having a first magnetic field strength and an indicator (114). A biasing permanent magnetic element (116) is disposed at the first end of the housing and has a second magnetic field strength for biasing the indicator toward the first end. A first distance is between the permanent magnetic element and the biasing permanent magnetic element so that a threshold magnetic field strength can be determined from the first magnetic field strength, the second magnetic field strength and the first distance. Thus, when the object is placed approximate to the detection end and the object magnetic field strength is greater than the threshold magnetic field strength, the indicator rotates toward the detection end.
