Abstract: An inverter apparatus (10) is provided with first and
second current detectors (4r, 4s) for detecting the current of
two arbitrary phases (R, S) and further with first and second
A/D converters (5r, 5s), and they are integrated into one unit.
It furthermore stores, in a storage device (7), a compensation
value for compensating for an unbalance between gains of the
first current detector (4r) and the first A/D converter (5r),
and gains of the second current (4s) detector and the second
A/D converter (5s). By multiplying the detected current value
of either one of the detected phases (R, S) by this
compensation value, it equalizes the current feedback gains for
both phases (R, S).

Abstract: A microwave oven, and method of controlling the same,
stores a weight of food in an external memory of the
microwave oven through a simple manipulation of pressing a
hold key (125), and applies the stored weight of the food
for calculation of a cooking time. The microwave oven of
the present invention may perform cooking by calculating a
cooking time based on the weight of the food temporarily
stored in an internal memory (101) even if a setting
operation using the hold key (125) is not performed.
Further, the present invention is advantageous in that it
calibrates a zero point to calculate the cooking time,
increasing a cooking performance. The microwave oven
performs initialization by deleting the stored weight of
the food if a cooking start key (121) is not pressed
within a set time after the weight of food is measured,
thus preventing a malfunction of the microwave oven.

Abstract: A method of blind signal separation of convolutively mixed signals comprises firstly processing signals to produce second order independence. In a second step, and together with ranges of signal delay and rotation parameters, the resulting processed signals are used to determine delay and rotation parameters. These parameters implement at least one elementary paraunitary matrix and transform the processed signals into output signals with improvement in independence to at least a predominant part of a maximum extent obtainable over the parameter ranges. The output signals then become the next processed signals and the second step is iterated until independence ceases to be improved significantly. The latest output signals are then unmixed signals.

IPC: G11C11/16

Abstract: A magnetoresistive random access memory (MRAM) has separate read and write paths. This reduces the peripheral circuitry by not requiring switching between read and write functions on a particular line. By having the paths dedicated to either read signals or write signals, the voltage levels can be optimized for these functions. The select transistors, which are part of only the read function, may be of the low-voltage type because they do not have to receive the relatively higher voltages of the write circuitry. Similarly, the write voltages do not have to be degraded to accommodate the lower-voltage type transistors. The size of the overall memory is kept efficiently small while improving performance. The memory cells are grouped so that adjacent to groups are coupled to a common global bit line which reduces the space required for providing the capacitance-reducing group approach to memory cell selection.

Un réactif de marquage comprend au moins deux fractions de colorant fluorescent liées de façon covalente par un groupe lieur et présentant facultativement un groupe de liaison de cible destiné à fixer le réactif à une cible. Les réactifs de marquage par transfert d'énergie peuvent être liés à des matières cibles par une fixation covalente ou non covalente. Les colorants sont sélectionnés de manière que le spectre d'émission d'un premier colorant (ou donneur) chevauche le spectre d'absorption d'un second colorant, permettant ainsi qu'un transfert d'énergie se produise entre les colorants. Les blocs de construction de colorants sont la 4', 5'-bis-aminométhyl-fluorescéine et/ou son acide 5(6)-carboxylique et ils ont la structure (I).

Abstract: Reciprocal-space mapping measurement of X-ray

and setting of the measuring range of ω. When the measuring
range of ω is designated in absolute angle, the absolute-angle-designated

range to be acquired, preventing setting of a
warped measuring region. When the measuring range of ω is
designated in relative angle, it is acquired as it is. For
the measuring range of 2/ω, any one of the absolute-angle-designated
range and the relative-angle-designated range may
be acquired.
