  • Publication number: 20230380089
    Abstract: A display device includes a body that displays an image and a base that supports the body in a state where the base is placed on a floor surface. The base includes a plurality of casters that roll on the floor surface. The plurality of casters include at least one first caster and at least one second caster having a hardness lower than a hardness of the first caster.

  • Publication number: 20110169548
    Abstract: The present invention provides a data latch circuit which can operate stably with a low-amplitude signal, which consumes less electric power, and which is resistant against the variation in TFTs. When an analog switch is turned on, a data signal is inputted to a gate electrode of an n-channel TFT and, at this time, VDD is supplied to an input terminal of an inverter. When the analog switch in turned off, the n-channel TFT is turned on or off depending on a level of the data signal. When the data signal is at an H level, the n-channel TFT is turned on and VSS is supplied to the input terminal of the inverter. When the data signal is at an L level, VDD is supplied to an input terminal of the inverter. Therefore, only VDD and VSS levels are applied to the input terminal of the inverter.

  • Patent number: 7973670
    Abstract: An object is to provide a display device, in a part of which a monitor light emitting element is provided and in which an anode and a cathode of the monitor light emitting element are prevented from short-circuiting in an early stage and over time by using a circuit which corrects a voltage or a current to be supplied to a light emitting element in consideration of electrical property fluctuation of the monitor light emitting element, and a method for inspecting the display device. A monitor light emitting element is provided, which is electrically connected to a monitor line for supplying a current is provided, and a circuit is provided, which electrically disconnects the monitor light emitting element when an anode and a cathode of the monitor light emitting element are short-circuited in an early stage or over time. Further, a circuit for checking circuit operation before or after a step of providing the monitor light emitting element is provided.

  • Patent number: 7495501
    Abstract: A conventional charge pump circuit requires a step-up circuit or the like for turning on or off a transistor. Therefore, it has a problem of an increase in circuit scale, which leads to increases in circuit area and power consumption. One feature is to provide a charge pump circuit including a first transistor, a switch, a first capacitor, a second capacitor, and an inverter, in which one electrode of the first transistor is connected to a first potential, an output side of the inverter is connected to the other electrode of the first transistor and one side of the switch through the first capacitor, the other side of the switch is connected to a second potential through the second capacitor.
