Abstract: A CSK modulation is applied to transmit input data for transmission by using N PN code series. A modulator for N series synthesizes a predetermined number (n) of PN code series selected from N PN code series in response to m bits in the input data, and the synthesized code series is transmitted onto a transmission medium through a transmitting interface. The PN code series which is actually transmitted has a maximum value of the absolute magnitude of auto-correlation which is always greater than a maximum value of the absolute value of cross-correlations between the remaining synthesized PN code series.

Abstract: An AC plasma display panel includes a plurality of display lines, each line having parallel first (X) and second (Y) electrodes, and third electrodes crossing the first and second electrodes. In a write addressing method of driving the panel (Figure 18), during a selective write discharge operation carried out on a selected display line, a predetermined voltage (V y ) is applied to the respective second electrodes (Y) of non-selected display lines such that the resulting potential difference (V y ) between the second electrode of the selected display line and the second electrode of each non-selected display line is less than the potential difference brought about between the respective first and second electrodes of a display line by application thereto of a sustain discharge pulse. Similarly, in an erase addressing method of driving the panel (Figure 20), during a selective erase discharge operation carried out on a selected display line, the same predetermined voltage (V y ) is applied to the respective second electrodes (Y) of non-selected display lines. The predetermined voltage (V y ) may be equal to an addressing voltage (V a ) applied to the third electrodes. 
     These driving methods are applicable both to X-Y-Y-X electrode-arrangement and to X-Y-X-Y electrode-arrangement PDPs to prevent abnormal discharges.

Abstract: A die casting process, and a die casting apparatus make it possible to produce high-quality cast products, which little involve gas defects, with simplified constructions, such as an electromagnetic induction coil disposed around a plunger sleeve, and a contractible container disposed movably in a plunger sleeve. With these simplified constructions, a molten metal is localized on a side of a retracted plunger chip disposed in the plunger sleeve. Accordingly, when the retracted plunger chip is advanced, only gases, contained in the plunger sleeve, can be transferred to a cavity of a mold at first, and thereafter the localized molten metal can be injected into the cavity. Thus, it is possible to effectively inhibit the molten metal from involving the gases.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a laser light-source apparatus and a method of producing a laser beam, and particularly to a laser light-source apparatus capable of generating intermittent pulse light having a predetermined flickering time and emphasizing the brightness of its peak by a Bartley effect. A timing circuit forms a timing signal so as to allow an excitation type laser light source to produce the intermittent pulse light having the predetermined flickering time. A pumping laser pumps the excitation type laser light source based on the signal outputted from the timing circuit. The intermittent pulse light is flickering slower than a flicker value of a normal person in cycle. The time required to put out the intermittent pulse light is set to a time or so required to restore the sensitivity of each of human eyes to the maximum sensitivity after the human eyes have felt brightness since light has been launched into the human eyes.

Abstract: In a digital copying machine using a multi-beam
optical system, a light beam position detector (38)
situated on a line extended from the surface of a
photosensitive drum detects the passing position of
each light beam scanned by a polygon mirror rotated by
a polygon motor (36). A CPU (51) calculates control
amounts for galvanomirrors (33a to 33d) by using a
beam position detector output processor (40), on the
basis of the detection result of the beam position
detector. Based on the calculated control amounts,
galvanomirror drive circuits (39a to 39d) drive the
galvanomirrors (33a to 33d), thereby to control
the positions of the beams in a sub-scan direction.
The passing positions of the beams can be precisely
detected with no special precision in assembling the
optical system. In addition, the positions of the
beams in the sub-scan direction can be controlled at
predetermined positions, even if some change occurs in
the structure of the optical system due to a variation
in ambience or a variation with the passing of time.

Abstract: The invention provides an optical waveguide by
which, where a laser device of the surface light
emitting type or a light receiving device of the
surface light receiving type and the optical waveguide
are to be coupled to each other, even if the device is
to be mounted as of the plane mounting type, the
mounting form is not complicated and the production
cost necessary for optical axis adjustment is not
increased. A V-shaped groove is formed on a surface of
a substrate, and light reflecting films for reflecting
light are formed at the opposite ends of the V-shaped
groove while an optical fiber is mounted in the V-shaped
groove. By the construction, light is bent by
the light reflecting films formed on inclined surfaces
of the V-shaped groove. Consequently, in coupling
between the optical fiber and a light emitting or
receiving device of the surface light emitting type or
the surface light receiving type, the optical
semiconductor device can be mounted with a high degree
of accuracy directly on the same substrate just above
any of the light reflecting films with the light
emitting surface or the light receiving surface thereof
directed downwardly.

Abstract: A MOSFET (10), an op-amp (20), a comparator circuit (110), and voltage dividers
(170,180) with capacitors (150,240) are employed in combination to effectuate a soft-start switch
with current limiting. The transconductance of the MOSFET is employed so that no sense resistor
is required. The MOSFET and op-amp are configured as a closed-loop feedback circuit in which
the output of the op-amp is coupled to the gate (12) of the MOSFET and the inverting input (24) of
the op-amp is coupled to the output of the soft-start switch via a voltage divider. A first RC circuit
(144,250) provides a voltage to the non-inverting input of the op-amp which can be triggered to
gradually rise from a value close to zero to some reference voltage so as to soft-start a load.
Current limiting means are effectuated by a comparator circuit and voltage dividers (170,180) with
capacitors. The current limiting means brings the MOSFET to an OFF state and the non-inverting
input of the op-amp close to zero volts if the op-amp charges a second RC circuit so that the voltage
drop across its capacitor exceeds a pre-determined limit-reference, and also, once the current
limiting means brings the MOSFET to the OFF state, the current limiting means allows the soft-start
switch to begin a soft-start power-up after a pre-determined time dependent upon the time
constant of the second RC circuit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a continuous
processing apparatus and method for cleaning articles with
a liquified compressed gaseous solvent mixture. The
continuous processing apparatus includes three processing
chambers (A,B,C) including an entrance chamber (A), a cleaning
chamber (B), and an exit chamber (C). The chambers are provided with
hatches (H1,H2,H3,H4) which are opened and closed at appropriate times to
allow the articles to be cleaned to pass into and out of
the chambers. The entrance chamber is used for evacuation
of the incoming articles to remove the majority of the air
and moisture from the articles. After evacuation of the
incoming articles, the entrance chamber is pressurized and
the articles pass into the cleaning chamber. The cleaning
chamber is maintained at a temperature and a pressure at
which the liquified compressed gaseous solvent mixture is
in a subcritical state and a liquid/gas interface exists
between a liquid and a gas portion of the liquified
compressed gaseous solvent mixture. The cleaned articles
are then passed into a pressurized exit chamber where the
liquified compressed gaseous solvent mixture remaining in
the articles is evacuated before the cleaned articles are
removed from the apparatus.
