Publication number: 20240154040Abstract: A semiconductor device capable of measuring a minute current is provided. The semiconductor device includes an operational amplifier and a diode element. An inverting input terminal of the operational amplifier and an input terminal of the diode element are electrically connected to a first terminal to which current is input, and an output terminal of the operational amplifier and an output terminal of the diode element are electrically connected to a second terminal from which voltage is output. A diode-connected transistor that includes a metal oxide in a channel formation region is used as the diode element. Since the off-state current of the transistor is extremely low, a minute current can flow between the first terminal and the second terminal. Thus, when voltage is output from the second terminal, a minute current that flows through the first terminal can be estimated from the voltage.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 12, 2024Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: Semiconductor Energy Laboratory Co., Ltd.Inventors: Eri SATO, Tatsuya Onuki, Yuto Yakubo, Hitoshi Kunitake

Publication number: 20240151058Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a utility pole and a method for constructing the utility pole, which can simplify and improve efficiency of work at the time of new construction and replacement and can shorten a work period. The anchor has a larger diameter than a body of a utility pole on the ground and has higher ground support force. Thus, the hole for building the assembly type utility pole on the ground can be made shallower than the hole for building the utility pole in related art on the ground. The depth of the hole is shallow, so that it is possible to reduce a period for digging, reduce a probability of hitting a buried object, and reduce work for confirming a buried object. In addition, the assembly type utility pole includes a plurality of parts, and thus, only a degraded portion needs to be replaced, so that it is possible to shorten replacement work.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 16, 2021Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: NIPPON TELEGRAPH AND TELEPHONE CORPORATIONInventors: Tatsuya MOKI, Kenji INOUE, Hidenobu HIROTA, Yoshiyasu SATO
