Abstract: Provided is an excellent preventive or therapeutic agent for dementia, schizophrenia, etc., which acts on the basis of a serotonin 5-HT5A receptor modulation activity. An acylguanidine derivative characterized by having a structure in which guanidine has been bonded to one of the rings of quinoline or isoquinoline through a carbonyl group and a cyclic group has been bonded to the other ring (formula (I)) was ascertained to have a potent 5-HT5A receptor modulation activity and have an excellent pharmacological activity based on the modulation activity. The derivative was found to be capable of being an excellent preventive or therapeutic agent for dementia, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder. (In formula (I), one of Z1, Z2, Z3, Z4, and Z5 represents a nitrogen atom and the others each represents a carbon atom.)

Abstract: A resonant circuit inverter with a rectifier, a DC link circuit and an inverter including controllable switches. The resonant circuit inverter has a first control means, with which the operating point (A p) of the resonant circuit inverter determined by a phase angle between an output current (I ist) and a voltage (U  ist) at the output of the resonant circuit inverter is controlled. The first control means determines frequency of the output current (I ist). The resonant circuit inverter has a phase detector for determining an actual phase angle as a function of a zero crossing of the output current (I ist). The resonant circuit inverter has means for detecting a zero crossing of the output current (I ist). For determining the actual phase angle, the difference (T i-T t) is determined from measured time (T i) and a known dead time (T t).
