  • Patent number: 10476610
    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit includes a voltage comparison circuit and a control circuit. The voltage comparison circuit compares a detection voltage with a reference voltage. The detection voltage is a detected result of an electric source voltage supplied from an electric source supply device supplying the electric source voltage. The reference voltage is set to be lower than a standard voltage used in stabilization control that the electric source supply device performs for stabilizing the electric source voltage. The control circuit performs control of compensating a voltage drop of the electric source voltage when the detection voltage is lower than the reference voltage based on a result of comparison by the voltage comparison circuit.

  • Patent number: 10300409
    Abstract: Initial liquid containing fine bubbles is produced by mixing water and air (step S11). Fine bubbles have diameters of less than 1 ?m. The density of bubbles in the initial liquid is measured (step S13), and when the measured density is less than a target density (step S14), the initial liquid is heated and reduced in pressure so that the liquid is vaporized (step S15). As a volume of the liquid decreases, the density of fine bubbles increases, and high-density fine bubble-containing liquid is easily obtained. Alternatively, by increasing the density of fine bubbles in the initial liquid with using a filter that does not pass all fine bubbles, high-density fine bubble-containing liquid is easily acquired (step S15). When the density of bubbles in the initial liquid is greater than the target density, the initial liquid is diluted (step S16).
