Abstract: Treatment device for ultrasonic treatment and high frequency treatment procedure is equipped with an ultrasonic transducer including piezoelectric elements converting electrical power into ultrasonic vibrations. The treatment device includes a transmission rod with a treatment probe and jaw for clasping objects. The transmission rod includes one or more features for damping, to minimize or prevent excess vibrations and to, among other things, decrease frictional heat caused by the friction between the damping features and the transmission rod arising from attenuating the ultrasonic vibrations.

Abstract: The wiring design software 3 reads in design information, analyzes it to generate a wiring problem and correlates bonding pads and pins of a semiconductor package to each other (S102, S104). The wiring design software 3 then searches a wiring route while permitting crossing by using the Dijkstra method and the like, calculates an evaluation value by weighting the length of a candidate route with a coefficient W when the candidate route crosses a monitoring side E, and selects a candidate route having a minimum evaluation value as a partial route (S110).

A plurality of keys are arranged on the telephone and operable to cause the telephone and option circuit to interchange speech signals and control signals and to start and stop operating.

Abstract: A driver circuit for a display device, in which first and second clock pulse generator circuits generate first and second clock pulses to a gate circuit for allowing the first clock pulse to pass when the first and second clock pulses are a high level, and by the output of the gate circuit, a combination of a transistor and an inductance generate a high voltage pulse. The high voltage pulse is rectified in a triple voltage rectifying circuit to output a high voltage output for driving the display device such as EL elements, and the high voltage output can be reset by a low frequency pulse output from a discharge circuit. As a result, no inverter is required, and a small-sized and light-weighted driver circuit is achieved with a long luminescence life of the EL elements and without noises offensive to the ear.

Abstract: A polling communication method which asks whether or not there is a request with data from a range of answer requesting terminals. A request is determined by a binary looking-up to terminals by a center. The center and the terminals are connected through a common signal transmission line, replying to the center that there is a request with a self-address to the requesting terminal. There is a further reducing of the range of answer requesting terminals by sequentially determining, according to a binary looking-up to specify one of the requesting terminals when a collision of the requests occurs between the terminals at the replying time. The center then asks the content of the request to the specified terminal. Thus, this method can process requests at a high speed, not only when the rate of requests of terminals is low but also when the rate of requests of terminals is high and often collide.
