Abstract: A suspend control apparatus, disposed in an electronic device having a SIM card, includes a control unit that switches the state of the SIM card between a suspended state and a resumed state. The control unit determines, based on the state of SIM card access for data communication and the state of the SIM card when the data communication occurs, whether to give priority to SIM card access or switching to the suspended state, and sets the state of the SIM card accordingly.

Abstract: A semiconductor wafer evaluation apparatus, wherein a conductivity detector and a carrier mobility detector are independently arranged so that detections can be made under optimum conditions, respectively. A wafer carrying unit is arranged so as to carry or convey a semiconductor wafer on a carrying path between the two detectors. These components are controlled by a controller. A carrier concentration is calculated from the conductivity and the carrier mobility detected by both detectors. When a partition wall for preventing interference of an electromagnetic wave is provided between the conductivity detector and the carrier mobility detector, interference between the two detectors is further reduced.
