Abstract: A terminal device for an electric compressor has a partition wall and a terminal member for supplying electricity to an electric motor for driving a compression mechanism. The partition wall is located between an electric motor-storing section, which stores the electric motor and in which lubricating oil-containing fluid to be compressed is present, and a circuit section for supplying electricity to the electric motor. The terminal member extends through the partition wall in a sealed and insulated manner. The terminal member is constructed as a steel bolt-like member, and an end of a lead wire for supplying electricity to the electric motor is directly connected by caulking to the end of the terminal member at the electric motor-storing section side. The terminal device can exhibit high insulation performance even if polyalkylene glycol-based oil is used as lubricating oil contained in fluid to be compressed.

Abstract: A failure is detected immediately and certainly, and continuation of processing in an unstable state is prevented. A first error detection code is generated from first information which is output as a result of execution of a predetermined program conducted by a first processor. A second error detection code is generated from second information which is output as a result of execution of the program conducted by a second processor which is configured so as to output the same computation result as that of the first processor. It is detected whether the first information is the same as the second information, and it is detected whether the first error detection code is the same as the second error detection code. Writing the first information or the second information into a main memory is controlled on the basis of a result of the detection.

Abstract: In this parity data generating circuit, a Galois field multiplying calculation is realized by performing data conversion by index table information generated from a Galois field multiplying table so that data for RAID6 are generated. A table check circuit inspects nonconformity of the index table information in advance by using results in which the Galois field multiplying table is indexed from different directions constructed by the longitudinal direction and the transversal direction. Data and parity for making the multiplying calculation are decomposed into plural data and parities by using this table check circuit, and index table information different from each other are allocated to these data and parities. Thus, a longitudinal index table making circuit and a transversal index table making circuit themselves are checked.
