Abstract: A three-dimensional print data generation method is capable of matching the number of layers and/or size of slice data. Three-dimensional interpolation shape data is generated by interpolating a three-dimensional interpolation shape on three-dimensional shape data having a plurality of three-dimensional shapes composed of different materials. The three-dimensional interpolation shape defines an outline in slice data, and a shape disposed outside of the maximum outline of the three-dimensional shape on the deposition surface of the three-dimensional print and is continuous from the bottommost end to the topmost end of the three-dimensional shape in the layering direction of the three-dimensional print. The three-dimensional shape and the three-dimensional interpolation shape for each three-dimensional shape are sliced in the three-dimensional interpolation shape data to generate a plurality of items of interpolation slice data.

Abstract: An inductor includes a rectangular parallelepiped shaped housing, a conical coil buried inside the housing, a first outer electrode provided on a first end portion of a substrate mounting surface of the housing, and a second outer electrode provided on a second end portion of the substrate mounting surface of the housing. The conical coil is formed of the coil conductor, which is wound in a spiral shape. A winding axis direction of the conical coil is tilted with respect to the substrate mounting surface of the housing. Two ends of the coil conductor are connected to the first outer electrode and the second outer electrode so that end portions of the coil conductor are at a side near the substrate mounting surface of the housing.

Abstract: An inductor includes a housing composed of an insulating material and a conical coil provided inside the housing. The conical coil is formed of a spirally wound coil conductor. The winding diameter of the conical coil increases in a continuous manner. The coil conductor has a rectangular cross section. Parts of the coil conductor that are adjacent to each other in a winding axis direction of the conical coil are disposed so as to partially overlap when looking in the winding axis direction of the conical coil. The insulating material of the housing is disposed without any gaps along the periphery of the coil conductor.

Abstract: A ceramic electronic component includes a stack including ceramic layers and internal electrodes stacked alternately, and external electrodes provided on a surface of the stack and electrically connected to the internal electrodes. The internal electrodes include a melting trigger portion that melts earlier than any other portion. The ceramic layer adjacent to the internal electrode including the melting trigger portion includes a cavity. The cavity is provided at a position at which the cavity overlaps the melting trigger portion at least partially in a stacking direction of the internal electrodes. The cavity is open on a melting trigger portion side. A surface of at least one of the stack and the external electrodes is provided with an identifier that serves as a marker indicating use of the ceramic electronic component with the cavity vertically below the melting trigger portion.

Abstract: A module board includes insulating layers, ground electrodes, signal electrodes, and interlayer vias. Electronic components are mounted on a front surface of the module board, and a sealing resin layer covers the electronic components. A half-cut portion is provided in the module board at an outer peripheral edge thereof and recessed to an intermediate position in a thickness direction of the module board. A shield layer cover the sealing resin layer. The shield layer includes a frame portion that extends into the half-cut portion. The frame portion is electrically connected to ground interlayer vias that are exposed at an end surface and a bottom surface of the half-cut portion.

Abstract: The front face of an opening in a first wiring substrate is covered by a transparent substrate, a light-receiving face is made to face the opening, and an imaging element chip is flip-chip bonded to the rear face side of the first substrate. A gap formed between connection terminals between the periphery of the light-receiving face of the imaging element chip and the peripheral edge section of the opening is buried in a first resin, and the entire rear face of the imaging element chip and the rear face side of the first substrate are covered by a second resin. At the front face on this rear face side, an exposed conductive portion substantially parallel with the front face of the transparent substrate is covered with the second resin. A second wiring substrate is electrically and mechanically connected to the first substrate.

Abstract: Shooting is performed upon full depression of a shutter button, and a taken image is recorded in a memory card as an image file. An LCD displays the taken image and a print number thereof. The print number is adjusted by pressing addition and subtraction buttons. Upon pressing a decision button, number data of the print number is inputted. The number data is recorded in the memory card so as to relate to the image file. Incidentally, in case the shutter button is pressed by half without inputting the number data, the print number is set to one, and next shooting is allowed. The above operation is repeated until entire shooting is completed.
