  • Patent number: 8005997
    Abstract: A monitoring device according to the present invention is a monitoring device connectable between a target device including a first memory holding a first data sequentially renewed and a host device acquiring a second data coinciding with the first data held in the first memory, and includes a first bus, a second memory holding the second data, a first control portion allowing the second data to be sequentially inputted to the second memory through the first bus according to the renewal of the first data, an event detection portion outputting an event detection signal when the data flowing to the first bus satisfies an event detection condition set in advance, and a second control portion allowing the second data to be outputted from the second memory based on the event detection signal.

  • Publication number: 20080164093
    Abstract: A sound absorbing material (1a) comprising a film (11) composed of a silicone rubber and a porous layer (12) (i.e., a first porous layer) laminated on the back surface of the film (11). The film (11) is made of a material which has flame retardancy and generates no noxious fume during combustion, such as a silicone rubber comprising only polysiloxane. The film (11) used is preferably one which has an oxygen index of 25 or higher, which exhibits a heat release value of combustion per unit volume of 8 MJ/m or less and which exhibits a heat release rate of combustion of [200 kW/m2]ยท10 sec or less. The first porous layer (12) is formed from a material having flame retardancy, such as glass wool, rock wool or a mixture thereof. A structure (3a) can be formed by providing the sound absorbing material (1a) having the construction described above on a rigid wall (2) in parallel, with the first porous layer (12) facing to the rigid wall (2).

  • Patent number: 6688980
    Abstract: When a replay condition is established in advance of a game, a reproduced image which replays a specific scene in the advance of the game is displayed. In displaying the reproduced image, a parameter in the specific scene in the advance of the game is corrected for replay, and the specific scene is reproduced based on the corrected parameter. When the game display is resumed, a stored parameter is read. Suitable replay images can be displayed.

  • Patent number: 4000506
    Abstract: A transistor circuit comprising a bipolar transistor with high input impedance is disclosed. The transistor has low emitter-base conductance, and especially has a low conductance component caused by the recombination of minority carriers in an emitter. The emitter capacitance caused by stored minority carriers is low because of the low conductance component. These enable emitter-grounded operation at high current gain and high frequency.
