The battery case (31) is divided into a first casing and a second casing, the pack circuit board (74) is secured to the inside surface of the first casing, and the mounting mechanism is installed so the mounting mechanism is at least partially exposed on the surface of the first casing.

Abstract: A connector provided in a lower middle part of a battery pack, is protected from moisture in a reliable manner while simplifying the installing and removing of the battery pack. A vertical wall of the battery pack is formed with an arch-shaped ridge having a higher middle part and a pair of lower lateral end parts. A battery pack receiving recess is provided with a vertical wall opposing the vertical wall of the battery pack, and a pair of through holes on either lower end thereof. The vertical wall of the battery pack receiving recess is formed with an arch-shaped groove configured to receive the arch-shaped ridge of the battery pack. Moisture that may be deposited on the vertical wall surfaces is trapped by a water channel defined by the groove and the ridge, and drained from the battery pack receiving recess via the through holes.

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide simpler and more reliable electrical wiring than a lead wire. A battery pack includes at least one rechargeable secondary battery (1), a battery holder (70) for housing the secondary battery (1) in a predetermined position, a pack circuit board (74) having a mounted electronic circuit for monitoring the secondary battery (1), and an electrical connection wire (85) for electrically wiring the pack circuit board (74). Here, the electrical connection wire (85) is a bent metal wire. Because wiring is realized using metal wire, and the metal connection is secured after the wiring has been completed, movement and deformation due to vibrations and other factors, such as that which occurs in the case of conventional lead wires, are avoided, and reliability can be improved.

Abstract: An internal RAS generating circuit generates an internal signal instructing activation of a word line, based on a control command received from the outside. The internal RAS generating circuit activates the internal signal at least during a period in which an internal RAS guarantee signal received from an internal RAS guarantee signal generating circuit is asserted, regardless of the control command instructing inactivation of the word line. In a normal operation mode, the internal RAS guarantee signal generating circuit activates the internal RAS guarantee signal until a prescribed period guaranteeing a restoring operation elapses, while in the test mode, it inactivates the internal RAS guarantee signal.
