Abstract: A display apparatus includes: a display panel; a gate driver that provides, to a plurality of scanning lines, scanning pulse signals for controlling pixel switches to be ON in a selection period corresponding to a pulse width thereof; a data driver that provides gradation voltage signals to a plurality of data lines; and a display controller that provides a modulated clock signal having a frequency that changes at a predetermined rate in one frame period. The gate driver sequentially provides the scanning pulse signals each having a pulse width reflecting to a clock cycle of the modulated clock signal in a predetermined order corresponding to distances from the data driver to the plurality of scanning lines. The data driver provides the gradation voltage signals in the order of providing the scanning pulse signals for every data period corresponding to the clock cycle of the modulated clock signal.

Abstract: A method for forming a multilayer coated film on an object includes steps (1) to (3) below. A first colored coating material is applied to the object, thereby forming a first colored coated film (step (1)). The first colored coating material includes an iron-oxide-coated aluminum pigment and a quinacridone pigment and has a light reflectance property at specific wavelengths. A second colored coating material is applied to the first colored coated film, thereby forming a second colored coated film (step (2)). The second colored coating material includes a perylene pigment and has a specific hue. A clear coating material is applied to the second colored coated film (step (3)). A color difference ?E between the first colored coated film and the multilayer coated film is in a range of 20 to 30.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus such as a tablet PC has a rectangular magnesium body. Molded resin components are attached to the body, and have respective functions and engaging portions for releasably securing the body to a docking unit. The information processing device can be used while it is held with a hand or while it is attached to the docking unit. Molded resin components can make sliding contact with the docking unit, but the magnesium body will not make sliding contact with the docking unit and, therefore, the weak points of the magnesium body can be overcome.

Abstract: A tablet PC has a body including a printed circuit board, a battery and pen holder. A first connector is fixed to the printed circuit board, and a second connector is fixed to the battery. The second connector is engageable with the first connector when the battery is mounted on the body. A stopper is provided on the printed circuit board to regulate the position of the battery when the battery is mounted on the body. The body has a battery-accommodating portion having an end wall having an opening. The first connector is exposed from that opening.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus of the present invention has a display panel incorporating therein a display screen and a back cover that covers the display panel. The display panel is fixed to the back cover via a fixing part. The back cover has a positioning pin standing on the same central axis as a mounting hole formed in the display panel. The fixing part has a positioning hole that engages the positioning pin and a screw hole on the same central axis as the positioning hole. A screw is screwed into the screw hole of the fixing part through the mounting hole of the display panel.

Abstract: The present invention provides a portable information terminal with fewer differences between models in a parts configuration even when manufacturing a plurality of models with different detectors. The portable information terminal includes an upper cover section and a main body and the upper cover section is provided with a digitizer detecting, when a position on a display screen is pointed, the position and outputting a position signal and a conversion board that converts the position signal output from the digitizer through analog signal lines to a predetermined digital signal and inputs the signal to the main body.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus having a rectangular body and which is used in any vertical or horizontal orientation includes a pair of short side portions and a pair of long side portions. A battery disposed at a short side portion of the body overlaps with the upper cover. A penholder is positioned at a long side portion of the body adjacent to the short side portion where the battery is positioned. The information processing apparatus also has an air outlet opening disposed at or near a corner portion of the body between the short side portion of the body opposed to the side portion where the battery is positioned and the long side portion of the body opposed to the long side portion where the pen is positioned. The information processing apparatus further includes a radio communication receiving element disposed at the long side portion where the penholder is positioned.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus has a first unit and a second unit rotatably coupled through a coupling section. The apparatus is closed when an attachment unit of the second unit is engaged in an engagement unit of the first unit. The attachment unit includes: a fixture member that has a first fixture and a second fixture which are different in direction; and a cover member that has two plates facing each other between which the fixture member is interposed. The cover member stably supports the fixture member both in a first status in which the first fixture is stored between the two plates while the second fixture projects and a second status in which the second fixture is stored between the two plates while the first fixture projects.

Abstract: A second group of drive voltages V3 to V5 has a voltage range that is separate from, and does not overlap a first group of drive voltages V0 to V2. The first group of drive voltages V0 to V2 is supplied from first power sources VDD and VSS through operational amplifiers OP1 and OP2. The second group of drive voltages V3 to V5 is set with reference to VEE, and is supplied from the first power sources VDD and VSS through the operational amplifiers OP1 and OP2. Voltage conversion capacitors C11 and C12 are charged by turning on and off a first group of switches SW11 to SW13, and are discharged by turning on and off a second group of switches SW14 to SW16, thus causing the output of the second group of drive voltages V3 to V5 which have references to VEE.
