Abstract: The problem was that the high-impedance state of the difference between signals DQS and DQSB cannot be prevented from being brought in. With this invention, a first comparator circuit outputs a signal DQSIN representing the difference between DQS and DQSB after the coupling of input terminals to a terminal potential and from before the start timing of a preamble of the two signals. A second comparator circuit compares the level of DQS or DQSB with a reference voltage Vref and outputs a signal ODT_DET representing the result of the comparison. A gate circuit masks the signal DQSIN with a signal EW in a masking state. A control circuit identifies the start timing of the preamble based on ODT_DET, and sets the signal EW to the masking state before the start of the preamble and to an unmasking state from the start timing of the preamble.

Abstract: A turbine fuel pump includes an impeller having blades, each including a linear blade portion extending linearly in the radial direction of the impeller and a curved blade portion extending circularly curvedly from the head of the linear blade portion to the forward side of the impeller as viewed in the direction of rotation of the impeller. The linear blade portion has a length of (⅓ to ⅔)×H, where H is an overall length of the impeller.
