Abstract: Provided are a control circuit for a switching regulator that can switch off a transistor that drives an inductor at high speed, an integrated circuit device, the switching regulator, an electronic device, and the like. A control circuit (100) includes a signal generation circuit (10) and an output circuit (20). The signal generation circuit (10) generates a control signal (SG) for a switching regulator. Upon receiving the control signal (SG), the output circuit (20) outputs a drive signal (GD) to a gate of an N-type transistor (30) that drives an inductor (40). The output circuit (20) outputs a voltage level lower than a source voltage of the N-type transistor (30) as an off-voltage level of the drive signal (GD) for switching off the N-type transistor (30).

Abstract: Disclosed is an image pickup device which includes a camera body and a display unit serving as a monitor, supported for turning on an upper surface of the camera body and capable of being folded in a horizontal position on the upper surface of the camera body and capable of being set in a standing position at an angle to the upper surface of the camera body. A first recess capable holding the folded display unit therein is formed in the upper surface of the camera body, and the display unit has a back surface which is substantially flush with the upper surface of the camera body when the display unit is held in the first recess.

Abstract: In a document analyzing apparatus (10), a computer (14) successively produces a text corpus Ct from a linguistic material which increases in time series in a step S3, segments the text data into morphemes to which information of parts-of-speech is added in a step S5, removes unnecessary morphemes based on the parts-of-speech information in a step S7, and calculates a chronological incremental TFIDF as to each morpheme in a step S11. In a step S13, a cumulative total value (? TF) of the TF and a cumulative total value (? chronological incremental TFIDF) of the chronological incremental TFIDF prior to that corpus are calculated, and in a step S17, a residual analysis of the ? chronological incremental TFIDF (actual measurement) in that corpus is performed with a regression curve which has been produced in the previous corpus. A morpheme having a large positive residual is selected as a unique term while a morpheme having a small residual value (negative) is selected as a ubiquitous term.

Abstract: A flash apparatus is provided. The flash apparatus includes: an attachment portion capable of being attached in a freely detachable manner to an attachment target portion provided on an imaging apparatus; a main body supported in a turnable manner in an anteroposterior direction with respect to the attachment portion by means of a first turning portion; and a light-emitting portion supported in a turnable manner in an anteroposterior or vertical direction with respect to the main body by means of a second turning portion, including a light emitter directly or indirectly emitting light to a subject.
