Abstract: A terminal plate member on which a terminal of a coil component is mounted including: an annular frame having an inner peripheral edge; a pair of extension members extending from the inner peripheral edge of the annular frame toward an inner space of the annular frame member in a first direction; and a deformable section provided in the annular frame at proximal end of one of the pair of extension members, the deformable section having a more easily deformable property than other sections of the annular frame when force is applied. The deformable section is provided along at least an entire width in a second direction of the one of the pair of extension members. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

Abstract: A manufacturing method of a coil component for forming a coil-assembly body in which a coil is mounted on a magnetic-body core, comprising the steps of: inputting the coil-assembly body and an admixture containing a magnetic powder and a resin into a container; applying pressure onto the admixture which is inputted into the container; depressurizing an air pressure of an environment, in which the admixture is placed, to become a negative-pressure lower than the atmospheric pressure at least during the pressurizing process in the step of applying pressure; applying vibration onto the admixture and filling the admixture in the container at least during the depressurizing process in the step of depressurizing; and curing the resin contained in the admixture for the integrated object of the admixture and the coil-assembly body which passed through the step of depressurizing and the step of applying vibration.

Abstract: An A/D converter converts an output from a temperature sensor into a digital signal. A service life diagnostic unit diagnoses a service life of a power module based on a signal indicating a temperature outputted from the A/D converter. An output unit generates a signal representing a diagnostic result and outputs the generated signal from an output terminal to outside.

Abstract: A power module including: a power conversion unit including N switching-element pairs; and a control circuit. The control circuit receives N command signals, which correspond respectively to the N switching-element pairs, and a shared enable signal. The control circuit is configured to, when the enable signal is negated, execute all-off control of turning off all of the switching elements constituting the power conversion unit, and when the enable signal is asserted, execute normal control, dead-time addition control, and dead-time compensation control for each of the switching-element pairs per period of a corresponding command signal.

Abstract: A program creation device includes a processing unit that displays, on a display device, an edit screen on which respective timing charts of controlled units are arrayed in the vertical direction. Upon reception of a first input for designating an arrangement position of a display object on the timing charts to arrange the display object at the arrangement position, the processing unit displays the display object at the arrangement position designated by the first input on the timing charts. After displaying the display object, the processing unit receives a second input including a designation of a type and an input of a parameter. The processing unit then generates an operation program for executing an operation command of the type designated by the second input, to which the parameter input by the second input is applied, at an execution timing according to the arrangement position designated by the first input.

Abstract: A temperature data coding unit 100 increases the data resolution in a high temperature range and reduces the data resolution in a low temperature range, and makes the data length of the temperature data a fixed length. When carrying out numerical estimation of the fixed length code value in terms of a 2's complement numerical code value, the temperature data coding unit 100 generates coded data that increases with an increase of the pre-coded temperature data in terms of the 2's complement numerical code value.
