Abstract: To realize a driving circuit and a charging pump booster
circuit utilizing said [driving circuit] capable of reducing the
power consumption and the noise generated during switching.
Transistors Q1 and Q2 are controlled based on a control signal
input into an input terminal T in , and a charge/discharge current
is output to an output terminal T out . The base of a transistor
Q5, having almost the same characteristics as those of the
transistor Q1, is connected to the base of the transistor Q1 in
order to have the transistor Q5 generate a current corresponding
to the turning on/off of the transistor Q1, and the current from
said transistor Q5 is reflected toward a resistance element R1
by means of a current mirror circuit comprising transistors Q6
and Q7, so that base voltage of the transistor Q2 can be set
lower while the transistor Q1 is on in order to hold the
transistor Q2 to the OFF status. As a result, leak-through
current in the transistors Q1 and Q2 can be reduced and
switching noises created by said leak-through current can be
restrained.

Abstract: A satellite (11) is launched that contains high thrust chemical propulsion
thrusters, high specific impulse electric propulsion thrusters and a solar array.
The satellite quickly escapes the Van Allen radiation belts by firing the high
thrust chemical propulsion thrusters at apogees of intermediate orbits, staffing
from the transfer orbit (14) initiated by a launch vehicle, to successively raise
the perigees until the perigee clears the Van Allen radiation belts. The payload
mass and mission life are maximized by firing high specific impulse electric
propulsion thrusters to raise the satellite to near synchronous orbit, while
steering the thrust vector and solar array to maintain the sun's illumination on the
solar array. The chemical and/or electric propulsion thrusters are then fired to
achieve geosynchronous orbit (15).

Abstract: A trenching unit (12) used to cut trenches in the seabed for laying pipelines or
cables. 
The unit comprises: a jetting arm (3) with a plurality of sections, each section
having at least one nozzle; means for supplying fluid to nozzles (8) in at least two
sections; and means (4) for separately controlling the flow characteristics of the fluid
supplied to each individual section of the jetting arm. 
Two or more units of such apparatus can be used in tandem to extend the
fluidisation period of a localised area of the seabed. This is particularly useful when
pipes or cables are relatively stiff. The fluidisation period depends upon the distance
between the units which is calculated as a function of the characteristics of the seabed
and the capabilities of the individual units. 
The distance between the units is determined by the length of an adjustable
