Persons reporting incidents are aided by appropriate recommendations and assistance from appropriate service providers.

Abstract: A power module includes a connection terminal for external connection, the connection terminal protruding from the side surface of a package, and a dummy terminal protruding from the side surface of the package and shorter than the connection terminal. The dummy terminal is processed to have a bottom surface with an inclination. In other words, the distance between a plane containing a heat dissipation surface of the package and the dummy terminal increases toward the extremity of the dummy terminal. Accordingly, when a heat dissipation fin is attached to the heat dissipation surface, the extremity of the dummy terminal is more distant from the heat dissipation fin than the rest of the dummy terminal.

Abstract: An ink composition includes a fluid and a plurality of microcapsules suspended in the fluid. The fluid includes a first chemical compound that exhibits a first color characteristic in a first pH range and exhibits a second color characteristic in a second pH range, where the first color characteristic is visually distinct from the second color characteristic.
