Patent number: 11481011Abstract: An input terminal connected to both a terminal of the first device outputting a signal including a period of a low voltage greater than or equal to a predetermined period and a terminal of the second device outputting a periodic signal alternately repeating a high voltage and a low voltage less than the predetermined period via one signal line is included. When a signal input to the input terminal includes a period of a low voltage greater than or equal to the predetermined period, it is determined that a signal output from the first device is input.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2020Date of Patent: October 25, 2022Assignee: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Keiichi Nomura, Tsuyoshi Minami, Shuhei Uchida, Toshiya Sakurai, Hideo Suzuki

Patent number: 11048322Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a first processor, a second processor, and a positioning processor. The second processor consumes a reduced amount of power compared to the first processor during an operation. The positioning processor receives radio waves from positioning satellites and converts the radio waves into positioning data. The second processor controls the positioning processor. The second processor stores the positioning data received from the positioning processor. The second processor transfers the stored positioning data to the first processor at a timing determined in accordance with an operating condition of the first processor.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2020Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD.Inventors: Tsuyoshi Minami, Kimiyasu Mizuno, Hideo Suzuki, Takashi Suenaga, Keiichi Nomura, Shuhei Uchida, Shigeki Kitamura, Munetaka Seo, Toshiya Sakurai

Patent number: 4675765Abstract: A magnetic recording and/or reproducing element comprises a main element body, and windings wound around the main element body. The main element body has a pair of extremely thin layers made from a ferromagnetic material, and the extremely thin layers oppose each other at respective edges thereof so as to constitute a gap. Each of the thin layers are sandwiched between a pair of support members which are made from a non-magnetic and abrasion proof material. A contact surface is formed on a vertex part of the main element body, for making contact with a magnetic recording medium so as to record and/or reproduce a signal on and/or from the magnetic recording medium. The main element body has one or a plurality of side surfaces which form a predetermined angle with respect to the contact surface and define the peripheral edge of the contact surface so that the contact surface has a predetermined shape with an extremely small area and has the gap at an approximate center of the predetermined shape.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 1984Date of Patent: June 23, 1987Assignee: Victor Company of Japan, Ltd.Inventors: Keiji Segawa, Hirofumi Imaoka, Hisao Kinjo, Toshiya Sakurai
