  • Publication number: 20240145331
    Abstract: The power semiconductor module includes a base plate, a semiconductor chip mounted on a first main surface of the base plate, and a heat sink connected to a second main surface of the base plate, wherein: a chamfered part is provided at an end portion of at least one side of the second main surface; and, when the cross section of the base plate is viewed in a state in which the base plate is fixed to the heat sink, the slope of the second main surface of the base plate is discontinuous at the boundary between the chamfered part and an area of the second main surface other than the chambered part, and the angle between the bottom surface of the chamfered part of the base plate and the surface on the side of the heat sink where the base plate is fixed is 5° to 30°.

  • Publication number: 20230102313
    Abstract: An imaging system, having an imaging apparatus and a moving apparatus that moves with the imaging apparatus mounted thereon, includes: a first acquisition unit configured to acquire a movable time, which is a time when the moving apparatus is capable of moving, based on a residual battery capacity of a first power supply that supplies power to the moving apparatus; a second acquisition unit configured to acquire an imageable time, which is a time when the imaging apparatus is capable of imaging, based on a residual battery capacity of a second power supply that supplies power to the imaging apparatus; and a control unit configured to control whether power is fed from the second power supply to the moving apparatus or power is fed from the first power supply to the imaging apparatus, based on at least one of the movable time and the imageable time.

  • Patent number: 9723213
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus controls, when an instruction for performing enlarged display or reduced display of a reconstruction image displayed on a displaying medium is received, whether to cause enlarged display or reduced display of an image corresponding to the reconstruction image displayed on the displaying medium, or whether to cause to generate another reconstruction image in which a subject distance that is different from a subject image in the reconstruction image displayed on the displaying medium is focused, and to cause enlarged display or reduced display of the generated another reconstruction image.

  • Patent number: 9424174
    Abstract: A control apparatus which controls a memory having a plurality of banks, allocates the plurality of banks to a first region and a second region, wherein data transfer is performed by interleaving access in a plurality of banks in the first region, and data transfer is performed by non-interleaving access in at least one bank in the second region. The control apparatus sets a bank in the first region and a bank in the second region independently to a low-power state.
