Patents by Inventor Ryuya Koike

Ryuya Koike has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10812891
    Abstract: Provided is a sound output apparatus that includes an insertion portion inserted into an earhole for outputting sound to an earhole, and a fingerprint sensor that is exposed to the outside of the earhole for detecting fingerprint information. This configuration allows even a compact apparatus to perform a desired operation in response to operations, thereby achieving miniaturization of the apparatus and improving the user's convenience.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7239179
    Abstract: The present invention provides a level conversion circuit including first and second transistors, a clock terminal, first switch means, second switch means, and a capacitance element. The first and second transistors are of the opposite conduction types to each other connected in series between a first power supply potential and a second power supply potential. The clock terminal is inputted a clock signal. The first switch means is connected between the clock terminal and the gate of the first transistor and has an on state when a circuit operation control signal is in an active state. The second switch means is connected between the second power supply potential and the gate of the second transistor and has an off state when the circuit operation control signal is in an active state. The capacitance element is connected between the clock terminal and the gate of the second transistor.
