Abstract: A grain oriented electrical steel sheet comprises metal part containing Si: about 2.5 to about 5.0 mass % and Cr: about 0.05 to about 1.0 mass %, and an insulation coating formed on a surface of the metal part. A tension imparted to the metal part in the rolling direction by the insulation coating is not smaller than about 3.0 MPa. Magnetic flux density B8 satisfies a specific relation formula. A plurality of linear strains or grooves are formed in a surface of the steel sheet and linearly extended at an angle of not larger than about 45° (in each direction) relative to a direction perpendicular to a rolling direction such that an interval D of the linear strains or grooves satisfies a specific relation formula depending on the Cr content. A grain oriented electrical steel sheet is thereby obtained which has lower iron loss after domain refining treatment than conventional values.

Abstract: A high-speed counter using radix-N Signed-Digit redundancy adders, an initial value generator and an interim value generator for each digit. The initial value is selected based upon a desired count. The transfer digit and interim value for each digit are generated to eliminate a carry propagation from a lower digit position. The high-speed counter reaches a desired count with a certain delay time regardless of the starting count value.
