  • Patent number: 7205212
    Abstract: A method of selectively transferring devices arrayed on a first substrate to a second substrate on which an adhesive resin layer is previously formed is provided. The method includes steps of selectively heating the adhesive resin layer on the second substrate by laser irradiation from the back surface side of the second substrate, and curing the selectively heated portions of the adhesive resin layer, thereby adhesively bonding those to be transferred of the devices to the second substrate. At this time, portions, corresponding to the devices, of the adhesive layer are heated directly or indirectly via the devices or wiring portions by laser irradiation from the back surface side of the substrate. The heated portions of the adhesive resin layer selectively exhibit the adhesive forces. The heated portions of the adhesive layer are then cured, so that only the devices to be transferred are selectively transferred to the second substrate.

  • Patent number: 7176978
    Abstract: In synchronization of a conventional AV system, when a stream as the master stops, a system clock cannot be corrected for synchronization. Since the correction is consistently performed even when an error is small, overhead of correction is large. On the other hand, when an error is large, sharp correction causes a feeling that something wrong. In the present invention, when the stream as the master stops, previously registering the degree of priority regarding the master, consideration of a corrected period or a previous error for the system clock, or transmitting a stream containing information regarding the master can allow for other process to serves as the master. Accordingly, it is possible to provide a method for synchronization with maintaining correction of the system clock. When a corrected error is large, gradual correction or reference can provide a system with normal feeling.

  • Publication number: 20070002715
    Abstract: A hologram device records information of an interference fringe of signal light and reference light onto a hologram recording medium and reproduces the recorded information by emitting the reference light onto a recording area of the hologram recording medium. The hologram device includes a recording/reproducing controller performing a recording operation of the information concurrently with a reproducing operation of previously-recorded information, and an error detector detecting an error in the previously-recorded information reproduced concurrently with the recording operation.

  • Publication number: 20060285232
    Abstract: A lens barrel which has a compact inner lens mechanism and is able to be manufactured in a small size at low cost. In the lens barrel according to the present invention, a number of shafts can be reduced by making a guiding shaft (61) to be a common guiding shaft. In addition, a guiding shaft (63) is formed only within a moving range of a zoom movable member (22), and a coil unit (70) is disposed in a space positioned behind the guiding shaft, hence the whole lens barrel can be made compact. On the other hand, since the guiding shaft (61) and a guiding shaft (62) are formed separately, a sleeve section (21a) of the zoom movable member (22) and a sleeve section (41a) of a focus movable member (42) are made to have sufficient lengths, and also a sufficient length for sliding the respective movable members can be obtained. Accordingly, stable operations of the respective movable members with high precision can be realized, even in a compact size.

  • Patent number: 7086057
    Abstract: A task allocation time decision unit inputs a period of each of the tasks and a load factor of each of the tasks with respect to execution time of all tasks from a task context memory unit, and decides the task allocation time. A task occasion frequency computation unit computes a task occasion frequency. An execution time ratio computation unit computes an execution time ratio of each task with respect to a execution time of a certain task. A schedulability condition computation unit computes a conditional expression for enabling scheduling on the basis of the period. A task allocation time decision unit computes a task allocation time for enabling scheduling from the conditional expression and the execution time ratio and outputs the resultant task allocation time to a task allocation time display unit.

  • Publication number: 20060165109
    Abstract: A data communication device is provided wherein a data storage region and a process request region indicative of whether or not there is a process request of data transmission are secured on a memory. A data transmission section receives a request for data transmission from a transmission module to store data in the data storage region and, only when a process request is not yet written in the process request region, writes a process request in the process request region to issue an interrupt to a process request receiving section. The process request receiving section confirms that a process request is written in the process request region and clears the process request to notify a reception module about data storage in the data storage region. A data acquisition section receives a request for data reception from the reception module to acquire data from the data storage region.

  • Publication number: 20060153044
    Abstract: A hologram reproduction apparatus and method is disclosed wherein positioning between reproduction reference light and a hologram recording medium can be performed accurately. Reference light is irradiated upon the medium recorded by angle multiple recording, and reproduction light generated from the medium is received by an image pickup apparatus to reproduce data. Thereupon, projection information of light which cannot pass through an iris but is projected on the iris is detected by an optical detector. A position control section detects a positional displacement of the medium based on projection state information on the inner side of a projection region of reproduction light generated from an adjacent recording area to the recording area of a reproduction target from within the detection information and controls a drive mechanism to move the medium so as to eliminate the positional displacement.
