Abstract: A navigation device includes a current position detection unit (2), an information storage unit (3), a calculation unit (4a) that calculates an estimated travel time from the current position to a facility position, a search unit (4b) that sets an area within a specified range from the current position as a vicinity area and searches facilities in the vicinity area, and a control unit (4c) that displays the searched facilities in a list. When the vehicle is on a road, the control unit, to display the list, divides the vicinity area into a front-left side area, a front-right side area, a rear-left side area, and a rear-right side area in relation to the vehicle, sorts by area the searched facilities in the order of distance from the vehicle, and further sorts the facilities in the order of the front-left side area, the front-right side area, the rear-left side area, and the rear-right side area. When the vehicle is not on a road, the control unit, to display the list, divides the vicinity area into a short distance area, an intermediate distance area, and a long distance area in relation to the vehicle, sorts by area the searched facilities in the short distance area and the long distance area in the order of distance from the vehicle and the searched facilities in the intermediate distance area in the order of the shortest estimated travel time first, further sorts the facilities in the order of the short distance area, the intermediate distance area, and the long distance area.

Abstract: A controller for use in a power factor correction (PFC) converter is disclosed. An example controller includes an integrator coupled to receive a voltage sense signal responsive to a magnitude of an ac voltage source. The ac voltage source is coupled to an input of the PFC converter, which is coupled to an energy transfer element, which is coupled to a power switch. The integrator is further coupled to receive a current sense signal responsive to a current flowing in the power switch when the power switch is on. The integrator is to generate an integrator output signal in response to the voltage sense signal and the current sense signal. On/off logic is to be coupled to drive the power switch on and off to control a transfer of energy through the energy transfer element to a load coupled to an output of the PFC converter. The on/off logic is coupled to terminate an on time of the power switch when the integrator output signal reaches a threshold value. A gain of the integrator circuit is adjusted in response to the voltage sense signal such that the threshold value is substantially constant independent of the magnitude of the ac voltage source when a magnitude of the load is constant.
