Abstract: An overcurrent protective circuit in which the source of an N-type depletion MOS (1) is connected to the source of a P-type depletion MOS (2), the gate of the N-type depletion MOS (1) to the drain of the P-type depletion MOS (2) through a resistor and others, and the gate of the P-type depletion MOS (2) to the drain of the N-type depletion MOS (1) through a resistor and others. A semiconductor circuit to which such an overcurrent protective circuit is parallely connected through a rated value correcting circuit. Also, this invention provides an overcurrent cut-off circuit which operates, fundamentally, on the same cut-off principle as that of the above-mentioned overcurrent protective circuit and which is constituted of an enhancement MOS. Then, by so arranging the gate circuit that the gate voltage does not become greater than a certain value, the overcurrent is suppressed to approximately 1.5 to 2 times the rated current, thus effectuating the cut-off.

Abstract: The present invention is a device for the exchange of electronic charge between two circuits - a voltage-regulated and a voltage-controlled circuit - of a d.c. power supply unit. Its output voltages are equal and preferably symmetrical to a fixed reference potential (GND) and are available at two outputs (U0+ and U0-). The device of the invention consists of a clock generator (18) which controls two selectors (21, 22) respectively via a drive circuit (19, 20). An inductance (L) and a capacitor (C) in series are connected to these selectors (21, 22) in such a way that, during a half-pulse of the clock generator (18), the inductance (L) is connected to one potential (U0+) and the capacitor to the fixed reference potential (GND), while in the second half-pulse the inductance is at the reference potential (GND) and the capacitor is at the other potential (U0-). Thus the device transfers charge with virtually no losses from the more lightly loaded circuits to the others when the natural frequency of the LC unit corresponds to the pulse frequency of the clock generator (18).

Filed: 1994-02-08
Abstract: An apparatus for determining the paramagnetic characteristics of substances such as oxygen includes a cuvette rotating in a magnetic field. The cuvette includes measuring chambers and reference chambers and an alternating voltage is induced in the measuring field coils by the rotation of the cuvette along the magnetic field. A base signal disturbing the measuring signal is also generated. This base signal is caused primarily by changes in the thickness of the material in the reference chambers and the measuring chambers and/or by material thickness changes of the cuvette. To eliminate this base signal, the cuvette includes a magnetic compensating device. This device is mounted at such a position that it generates a compensating magnetic field during its rotation through the magnetic field. This compensating field generates a compensating voltage which has the same amplitude as the base signal but has a signal waveform which is opposite in phase to the base signal.

Abstract: An effective method for sterilizing seeds for sprouted vegetables and a sprouted vegetables cultivating method in which the growth of sprouted vegetables is promoted, with restraining the occurrence of their putrefaction caused by the breeding of microorganisms, are provided. 
     Seeds for sprouted vegetables are subjected to a sterilizing treatment comprising exposing seeds to a high temperature of 70 °C or more and then quenching the seeds quickly. By making shorter the time of exposure even to a high temperature, this is 70 °C or more, it is possible to obtain seeds in which their putrefaction due to the breeding of microorganisms which has hitherto occurred in the growing course of sprouted vegetables can be remarkably reduced, without giving any bad influence upon the sprouting and growth of sprouted vegetables at all. 
     Furthermore, the present invention provides a method for cultivating sprouted vegetables by use of seeds which have been exposed to a high temperature of 70 °C or more and then quenched quickly. By use of such seeds subjected to the high-temperature sterilizing treatment, it is possible to rear sprouted vegetables with a smaller quantity of their putrefaction after soaking, and to harvest sprouted vegetables capable of being preserved for a long period of time.

Abstract: A differential amplifier formed by a pair of transistors (U01C, U01B) couples a vertical sawtooth signal (VRAMP1) to an input side of a vertical deflection amplifier. Nonlinearity of the transistor pair provides S-correction in the vertical direction. The current in the transistor pair varies when vertical height is adjusted, in service operation, so that the nonlinearity changes. In a vertical shrink mode of operation, the amplitude of the sawtooth signal is reduced. The nonlinearity (ratio of VRAMP1/VSAW) associated with a given level of the sawtooth signal that corresponds to a given vertical position in the vertical shrink mode is the same as that associated with the same level of the sawtooth signal in the vertical, non-shrink mode.

Abstract: An apparatus for and a process of batch assembly of sundry leaded or padded devices, encapsulated and non-encapsulated, onto a printed wiring board (PWB), which exhibit significant improvements in both manufacturability and reliability. A pressure frame assembly apparatus (11) permits an application of uniformly distributed pressures to a variety of leaded packages and padded semiconductor chips during cure of conductive adhesives (AdCons), and leads to the reduction of variations in initial interconnection resistance, and thereby to the enhancement of the reliability of AdCon interconnections. The pressures are applied to the devices by an external application of a fluid under pressure to a flexible, resiliently stretchable membrane (14) which conformably envelops outlines of the devices and adjacent areas of the PWB. Application of vacuum suction to within the cavity, formed by the pressure frame and the membrane (14), prior to the external application of the fluid pressure to the membrane, further improving the reliability of surface mounted assembly of packages on the interconnection board. Assembly yields approaching 100% were observed for a variety of surface mounted packages indicating that the system will be highly reliable.
