  • Patent number: 6917191
    Abstract: A frequency measurement circuit measures a frequency of an input signal. The frequency measurement circuit includes a frequency measurement unit for counting a reference clock during a counting period having a predetermined number of waves of the input signal. The frequency measurement unit counts the reference clock by using a lighter amount of weighting to each count at a starting time and an ending time of the counting period than the amount of weighting at the other times of the counting period.

  • Publication number: 20040100245
    Abstract: A frequency measurement circuit comprises a plurality of frequency measurement units 10, 20, K0 each of which counts a reference clock Cb during a counting period having a predetermined number of waves of an input signal Cin, each of the frequency measurement units counts the reference clock, with shifted counting periods, respectively. Moreover, an adder 14 is provided to add the counted numbers of the plurality of the frequency measurement units. By shift the counting periods, even if the phase of the input signal agrees with the phase of the reference clock at the time counting starts and at the time counting ends on a certain frequency measurement unit, there is scarcely any possibility of agreement of the phases on other frequency measurement units. Therefore, by utilization of the added number of counts, frequency can be measured with high accuracy. In addition, by making the counting periods being shifted with overlaping each other, extension of the measurement time is not required any longer.

  • Patent number: 6317476
    Abstract: A device for suppressing spurious signals generated by a fractional-N synthesizer. The fractional-N synthesizer generates an output frequency where an underlying PLL circuit uses a frequency divider for dividing the output frequency by a frequency-division ratio to obtain a comparison frequency and performs phase-comparison operations between a reference frequency and the comparison frequency to control the output frequency. The output frequency is changed by a frequency interval smaller than the reference frequency by making a temporal change to the frequency-division ratio once in every predetermined number of cycles.

  • Patent number: 4744002
    Abstract: A compact-type gas-insulated switchgear apparatus is disclosed, in which movable contacts of a disconnector and a ground switch arranged in a cable head casing are adapted for switching operation in parallel to the axis of the cable head casing. A connecting conductor connecting stators of the disconnector and the ground switch is arranged in a position perpendicular to the axis of the cable head casing. A connecting opening is formed in the side wall of the cable head casing at a part thereof corresponding to the end of the connecting conductor. It is thus not necessary to increase the diameter of the cable head casing for the movable contacts of the disconnector and the ground switch performing substantially parallel operation, and other electrical equipment may be connected along the extention of the connecting conductor connecting the stators of the disconnector and the ground switch without modifying the cable head casing.

  • Patent number: 4458099
    Abstract: A three-phase combined type gas insulated bus is disclosed which comprises at least one eddy current conductor for passing the eddy current caused secondarily by the current flowing in high voltage conductors, thus solving the problem of a newly-found phenomenon that the temperature of a sealed casing increases by the flow of the eddy current. This eddy current conductor is made of such a material of good electrical conductivity as aluminum or copper. Even in the case where the sealed casing is reduced in diameter to such an extent as to pose a problem of temperature increase by the eddy current flow, the eddy current is reduced or completely eliminated in the best case, so that the sealed casing can be made of a low cost soft steel.
