  • Patent number: 7667978
    Abstract: An electronic component unit including a metallic member and an electronic component, such as a semiconductor element, mounted on the metallic member is encapsulated with molding resin such as epoxy resin, thereby forming an electronic package. The electronic component unit is covered with primer made of a material such as resin to increase an adhesive force of the molding resin to the electronic component unit. A glass transition temperature of both of the molding resin and the primer is set to a temperature higher than 200° C. to keep the adhesive force unchanged at least up to the ambient temperature of 200° C. and to secure a reliability of the electronic package. A metallic lead wire connected to the electronic component may be encapsulated together with the electronic component unit. An entire surface of the electronic component unit may be covered with the primer to further improve the adhesive force.

  • Patent number: 5753123
    Abstract: The present invention permits human urinary thrombomodulin to be purified by a simple and practical procedure, while it enables even a starting material with a lowered content of thrombomodulin to be purified by greater purification rate than the one with a high content of thrombomodulin.

  • Patent number: 5468380
    Abstract: A present invention relates to a method for quantitatively determining sugar-alcohols characterized by passing test samples containing sugar-alcohols, proteins, and saccharides through a column filled with basic anion-exchange resins which have a protein-removing ability and a saccharide-removing ability, and then quantitaing the sugar-alcohols in the effluent out of the column, a column filled with said resins and an aqueous solution of boric acid, and a kit. Sugar-alcohols such as 1,5-anhydroglucitol and the like have been calling attention as markers for diabetes mellitus recently.

  • Patent number: 5416798
    Abstract: The device of the present invention is used to measure the intensity of a disturbing wave and measures an average value of impulsive noise. The invention permits accurate and short-time measurements. Impulsive noise, which is input via a variable attenuator, a frequency converter, an intermediate-frequency amplifier and a band-pass filter of a 9 or 120 kHz pass frequency, is provided to a linear detector. The detected output is applied to a low-pass filter which is composed of CR elements and whose cut-off frequency is tens of kilohertz. By the low-pass filter, the peak value of the detected output is lowered and its width is increased. The filter output is converted by an A-D converter to a digital signal. Digital values at respective sample points in the digital signal of one frame are added by an arithmetic circuit, and the added value is divided by the number of samples to obtain an average value, which is displayed.

  • Patent number: 4521476
    Abstract: A hybrid integrated circuit is prepared by laminating an aluminum-copper clad foil on an insulating layer, etching the aluminum-copper clad foil with etching agents to form an aluminum circuit and a copper circuit and connecting a semiconductor element to the aluminum circuit through an aluminum wire or a gold wire while connecting a circuit element to the copper circuit by soldering.

  • Patent number: 4178554
    Abstract: There is provided a pair of flip-flops, each of which is set before appearance of every one of two input signals to be compared. One of the input signals is applied to a reset terminal of the first flip-flop through an inverter, and the other input signal to that of the second flip-flop through another inverter. There is further provided a pair of AND gates. A set output of the first flip-flop is led to one of two input terminals of the first AND gate through a delay element, and a reset output of the second flip-flop is connected to the other input terminal of the first AND gate directly. The set output of the output of the second flip-flop is coupled to one of two input terminals of the second AND gate through another delay element and the reset output of the first flip-flop is connected to the other input terminal second AND gate directly.
