Abstract: The invention relates to a DC/DC converter operating on the principle of a charge pump and comprising a first capacitor C1 alternatingly charged via four MOSFETs M1-M4 to the input voltage and then discharged in series with the input voltage via a second capacitor C2 connected to the output of the circuit. To set the starting current for charging the as yet empty capacitors to a precisely defined small value a switchable current mirror M3, M5 is used comprising one of the four MOSFETs (M3) and a further small MOSFET (M5) which is connected to a current source 4. A comparator 5 handles selection between the starting phase and the normal charge pump mode by comparing the output voltage Vout of the converter to a reference voltage Vref, it switching the current mirror and - via two small switches S2 and S3 connected to the gates of two of the four MOSFETs - also two of the four MOSFETs so that the capacitors may be charged in an energy-saving way. As compared to existing more complicated achievements this novel DC/DC converter is producable integrated on a smaller circuit area, it in addition to this taking into account the short-circuit case of the converter. In one special embodiment a foldback effect is achievable via a further MOSFET connected in parallel to the current source, the gate of this MOSFET being connected to the output of the converter.  <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of sending mail electronically. A sender supplies information to a receiver on data media relative to mail to be sent, such as addressees and mail contents. The contents of the data media are fed into the receiver's computer system, in which the addressees are compared with a register that includes information as to whether or not respective addressees have an electronic mail address. The computer system sends the mail items by electronic mail to addressees that have an electronic mail address, and it sorts out as physical mail the mail to the remaining addressees to whom mail items are to be sent. Upon expiration of a predetermined time, the computer system sorts out such addressees who have not answered the electronic mail, for the purpose of sending them the mail item by physical mail.

Abstract: A content key, an authentication key, and a program data etc. are transmitted with an enabling key block (EKB) in an encrypted key constitution of a tree structure. The EKB has a constitution in which a device as a leaf of the tree holds a leaf key and a limited node key, and a specific enabling key block (EKB) is generated and distributed to a group specified by a specific node to limit devices that can be renewed. As the devices that do not belong to the group cannot perform decryption, the security for distributing keys etc. can be secured. Thus, distribution of various kinds of keys or data is executed in an encryption key constitution of a tree structure to realize an information processing system and method enabling to distribute data efficiently and safely. <IMAGE>
