Patent number: 10592058Abstract: A touch panel driving device, for sequentially performing scanning for selecting a pair of adjacent transmission signal lines and a pair of adjacent reception signal lines on a touch panel, includes a reception circuit configured to receive reception signals whose waveforms are changed by a capacitance change caused by an operation from the pair of reception signal lines of the touch panel and generate a detection value for monitoring a touch panel operation. The reception circuit generates the detection value by comparing levels of the reception signals from the reception signal lines while sequentially switching capacitance values of a measurement capacitance unit connected to one of the reception signal lines. The measurement capacitance unit includes capacitance units each forming a certain capacitance value by parallel connection or series connection of capacitors as a capacitance unit forming one capacitance value used for switching the capacitance value of the measurement capacitance unit.Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2019Date of Patent: March 17, 2020Assignee: FUTABA CORPORATIONInventors: Terukazu Sugimoto, Takashi Muguruma, Hiroyuki Tanaka, Katsumi Takayama, Cheng-Che Ho, Fumikazu Omoto

Patent number: 10014149Abstract: In an X-ray radiation source, a counter wall made of alkali-containing glass, out of walls of a housing of an X-ray tube, is sandwiched between a filament and an electric field control electrode to each of which a negative high voltage is applied. This configuration prevents an electric field from being generated in the counter wall and thus suppresses precipitation of alkali ions from the glass. Therefore, it prevents change in potential relationship between electrodes at different potentials such as the filament, grid, and target and enables stable operation to be maintained, without occurrence of a trouble of failure in maintaining a desired X-ray amount.Type: GrantFiled: November 5, 2013Date of Patent: July 3, 2018Assignees: FUTABA CORPORATION, HAMAMATSU PHOTONICS K.K.Inventors: Tatsuya Nakamura, Norimasa Kosugi, Naoki Okumura, Yoshitaka Sato, Akira Matsumoto, Yoshihisa Marushima, Kazuhito Nakamura
