Abstract: Registered in a table are an output port number and a MAC address so as to correlate with transmission source and transmission destination IP addresses of a packet. When no information of a flow to which a received packet belongs is registered at the table, a first path unit transfers the packet to a middle path unit. When the packet from the first path unit is a packet to be a target of exception processing, the middle path unit transfers the packet to a slow path unit to cause the same to execute exception processing and otherwise, searches a routing table to obtain an output port number and a MAC address and outputs the packet to a relevant IF unit. The slow path unit registers the output port number and the MAC address obtained by the middle path unit and the transmission source and transmission destination IP addresses of the packet at the table.

Abstract: A fail-safe mechanism has a piston, a first valve and a second valve which are opened/closed by the movement of the piston, a fluid pressure chamber, and a spring. The piston normally opens both the first valve and the second valve to make a master cylinder and a wheel cylinder communicate with each other, and make the wheel cylinder and a fluid chamber of a first fluid pressure control mechanism communicate with each other. At the time of anti-lock control, as the fluid pressure in the actuating circuit increases, the first valve is closed, and the brake fluid is fed back into the second fluid chamber of the first fluid pressure control mechanism only through the second valve. Further, when the fluid pressure in the actuating circuit decreases, the piston is moved to the fluid pressure chamber by the urging force of the spring to open the first valve and close the second valve so as to make the master cylinder and the wheel cylinder directly communicate with each other only through the first valve.

Abstract: In order to reduce volume and weight of a power supply of a compact portable telephone set and thus reduce volume and weight of the compact portable telephone set itself, a P-channel power MOSFET is used as a power switching element, and a negative voltage, for example, -11 volts is applied across a source and a gate from a DC/DC converter to turn on the P-channel power MOSFET so that power is supplied from a battery 2 which serves as one power supply. When the gate and the source of the power MOSFET are maintained at the same potential, the power MOSFET is turned off and power is supplied from another power supply.
