Publication number: 20240177936Abstract: A multilayer electronic device includes an element body including an interior region and an exterior region and a pair of external electrodes. The interior region includes inner dielectric layers and internal electrode layers laminated alternately. The exterior region is disposed outwards from the interior region in a lamination direction. The pair of external electrodes is disposed on a surface of the element body and connected to the internal electrode layers. DRAa<DRAb<DRAc and DRBa>DRBb>DRBc are satisfied, where “RA” includes an element having a highest mole ratio among “RE” in the inner dielectric layers of a third region at a center of the interior region in the lamination direction, “RB” includes an element having a highest mole ratio among “RE” in a first region at a center of the exterior region in the lamination direction, and “RA” and “RB” are different from each other.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2023Publication date: May 30, 2024Applicant: TDK CORPORATIONInventors: Taku MURAKAMI, Nobuto MORIGASAKI, Takuma ARIIZUMI, Yoshitaka NAGASHIMA, Tsubasa AOKI

Publication number: 20240169097Abstract: A data authenticity proving system calculates a hash value A and a hash value B from an evidence data transmitted from a terminal device at respectively different timings, and, when the hash value A and the hash value B are the same, registers the evidence data by storing the evidence data in a storage device. In case that the evidence data has been tampered with during a time between a timing of receiving the evidence data from the terminal device and a timing of registering the evidence data in the storage device, the hash value A and the hash value B take respectively different values, thereby registration of the evidence data will not be performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2024Publication date: May 23, 2024Inventors: HARUHIKO NAMIKI, TAKUMA KAWAMURA, ATSUYA TANAKA, TAKAKAZU MURAKAMI, TATSUYA OKABE
