  • Patent number: 8031481
    Abstract: The present invention is provided a structure for mounting a printed board in which each connector that is attached to each of a plurality of sub printed boards, which are juxtaposed to one another with respect to a main printed board secured to a metal backboard, is inserted into each of a plurality of connectors that are juxtaposed to one another on the main printed board so that the sub printed boards are mounted on the main printed board by the connector connections. Parts of both ends of an area in proximity to a semiconductor-device mounted area on each of the sub printed boards ate pinched between a first metal frame and a second metal frame so that each of the sub printed boards are secured.

  • Publication number: 20100308230
    Abstract: Provided are a detector array substrate and a nuclear medicine diagnosis device using the same. The detector array substrate is provided with a flat detection module stacked in plural detection elements, which is connected to said detectors each other, and have signal electrodes for reading out signals of respective detectors, and bias electrodes for applying bias voltage to respective detectors, in order to form plural detectors for detecting radiation; and stacked with the detectors by arranging the detection modules having the plural detectors, in an X direction, as well as by arranging the detection modules in a flat structure on both planes or one plane of a wiring board in a Z direction as for an XZ plane for detecting the radiation, and provided with the plural detection modules in a Y direction.

  • Patent number: 5521536
    Abstract: In signal transmission lines among logic circuits employed in a semiconductor integrated circuit device, a voltage driver circuit is provided with such a wiring whose length is short, and the function of the signal receiving circuit is achieved by a logic circuit capable of responding to a voltage appearing at a terminal of the wiring. On the other hand, a source terminal of such a wiring whose length is long and whose resistance is high, is voltage-driven by the voltage driver circuit in response to the output voltage of the logic circuit. A current sense circuit is provided with a terminal of this long length wiring, which senses a current flowing through this long length wiring to be converted into a voltage. Both an output resistance of the voltage driver circuit and an input resistance of the current sense circuit are made lower than a DC resistance of this long length wiring.

  • Patent number: 5426784
    Abstract: A shift register 10 receives serial data and outputs parallel data in synchronism with the timing of the serial data received. A shift register group 20, 21 receives bit outputs of the parallel data from the shift register 10. The number of bits of shift registers 20, 21 in the shift register group is set in a certain condition that corresponds to the bit outputs of the parallel data from the shift register 10. A plurality of coincidence circuits 107, 108 are provided, which detects agreement between a preset data starting pattern and the bit arrangement of the data in the shift register group. A selector 306 selects a set of parallel outputs from the shift register group according to the output signal from the coincidence circuits 107, 108.

  • Patent number: 5281865
    Abstract: A flip-flop circuit receives a pair of complementary data signals, then outputs complementary signals corresponding to the pair of complementary data signals. The pair of data signals are also supplied to a driving gate means which outputs a signal corresponding to at least one data signal of the pair of data signals supplied thereto. The driving gate means also comprises at least one try-state gate controlled by a clock signal. An output signal of the driving gate means is held by a memory means, and also outputted as complementary output signals.

  • Patent number: 5021686
    Abstract: A logic circuit, most suitable for the NOR gate, logic function and integration on a single chip with a plurality of such logic circuits and other digital circuits receiving the outputs of the logic circuits and the logic circuits themselves connected and cascade, wherein plural groups of input transistors are provided, with a load through the voltage source and one of the groups, field effect transistor between the voltage source and the other group, so that its gate is connected to the node between the load and first group and its source is connected to the output terminal, with the improvement being in finding a leakage load for the field effect transistor through the voltage source, providing a clamping circuit for the gate of the transistor. The clamping circuit can include a transistor having its gate connected to the output with a delay so that it will not come on until after a substantial portion of the rise time of the output has expired.
