Title: Level shifting circuit
Inventor: SHIRAI KIYOTOSHI
IPC: H03K19/0185
Filed: 2002-07-31
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a level shifting circuit capable of performing level shifting from a low voltage system to a high voltage system in a wide voltage range while suppressing the reduction of operating speed and the increase of power consumption.  <P>SOLUTION: When a node N2 changes from a high level to a low level, a p-type MOS transistor Qp8 becomes an opening state, and a connection between the node N2 and a node N2 is disconnected, which leads to a high impedance between the node N4 and a supply line of power source voltage VDDH. In the similar manner, when a node N1 changes from the high level to the low level, a p-type MOS transistor Qp7 becomes the opening state, and a connection between the node N1 and a node N3 is disconnected, which leads to a high impedance between the node N3 and the supply line of power source voltage VDDH. Thus, voltage reduction of the node N3 and the node N4 is accelerated, which increases the speed of a level shifting operation.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Title: Smell measuring apparatus
Inventor: AKAMARU HISAMITSU
IPC: G01N5/02
Filed: 2002-08-30
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve a measurement accuracy for the intensity of smell of an unknown specimen.  <P>SOLUTION: As standard smells, substances representing the seven types of same series smell groups are selected, and standard vectors S1 to S7 corresponding to the standard smells are prepared in a 6th-dimensional space formed with detected output from a smell sensor and stored in a storage part 53. The averaged values of the olfaction thresholds of a plurality of smells grouped to the small groups are calculated and stored in a storage part 56. When the unknown specimen is measured, a standard smell reduced concentration calculation part 54 obtains a concentration equivalent to the standard smells from the positional relation between measurement points and standard vectors in the 6th smell space, and an average smell intensity calculation part 55 calculates a smell intensity from a concentration equivalent to the standard smells and the average olfaction thresholds. Even when components contained in the actual unknown smell are the other substances than the standard smells in a smell group, an error in conversion can be reduced because the average olfaction thresholds are used, and the reliability of the measurement results can be totally improved.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
