Abstract: A method (300) of converting interlaced Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) video signals to progressive video signals can include receiving an interlaced video signal representing a luma component specifying luma lines and a chroma component specifying chroma lines (310) wherein the chroma component can specify approximately one-half the number of lines of the luma component. The interlaced video signal can be decoded and the number of the chroma lines can be increased to approximately the same as the number of the luma lines (320). The number of chroma lines of the interlaced video signal then can be decreased (340), to substantially reverse the previous increase. The interlaced video signal then can be deinterlaced to produce a progressive video signal (350), which can be processed further (360) as needed.

Abstract: A gas sensor control apparatus for an exhaust gas sensor working to measure a selected component of exhaust gas from a diesel engine. The apparatus consists of a heater to heat the exhaust gas sensor to activate it and a controller working to restrict an operation of the heater in the condition that drops of water are expected to exist in an exhaust system of the engine. The controller determines whether the condition in which the temperature of the exhaust gas sensor is expected to be lower than that of the exhaust gas is met or not based on an operating condition of the diesel engine. When the temperature condition is met, the controller elevates the temperature of the exhaust gas to promote heating of the exhaust gas sensor through the heater, thereby minimizing the deterioration in characteristics or performance of the exhaust gas sensor.

Abstract: In an RF tag, a mask ROM or a flash memory is used for storing data such as an ID number. Although the mask ROM can be realized at a low price, rewriting is not possible. In addition, in the flash memory, although electric rewriting is possible, production cost increases. Accordingly, it is difficult to provide an RF tag by which data rewriting is possible at a low price. An RF tag is provided with a power supply circuit having a function to generate a power supply voltage from a weak radio signal and a memory which can hold data stored in a data holding portion by the power supply voltage. With the above structure, a high-performance RF tag capable of rewriting data such as an ID number after production can be provided at a low price.
