  • Patent number: 9363875
    Abstract: A discharge lamp lighting device includes a discharge lamp, a resonant circuit section, a power conversion section, and a control section. The resonant circuit section is connected to the discharge lamp. The power conversion section is adapted to convert direct-current power into alternating-current power and then supply the discharge lamp with the alternating-current power via the resonant circuit section. The control section is adapted to change a frequency of the alternating-current power alternatingly between a first frequency and a second frequency different from the first frequency in a lighting start period until the discharge lamp reaches a stationary lighting state. The control section is adapted to change the first frequency toward a frequency causing a resonance of the resonant circuit in a stepwise manner. The second frequency is lower than the first frequency.

  • Patent number: 9152033
    Abstract: A discharge lamp lighting device includes: a discharge lamp drive section which supplies electric power to a discharge lamp; a voltage detecting section which detects drive voltage of the discharge lamp; and a control section which controls the discharge lamp drive section, wherein the control section performs a first control process of controlling the discharge lamp drive section so that the electric power supplied to the discharge lamp is a first power based on the drive voltage detected by the voltage detecting section during a period when the first control process is previously performed, and a second control process of controlling the discharge lamp drive section so that the electric power supplied to the discharge lamp is a second power different from the first power based on the drive voltage detected by the voltage detecting section during a period when the second control process is previously performed.

  • Patent number: 7840560
    Abstract: In a delivery information setting processing, for each macro, deliverability of the macro and a kind of macro data for constituting the macro are set for each process technology. In a registration processing, the macro data is registered in correlation with a macro name and a process technology name. In a delivery control processing, permission to deliver the macro is given based on the combinational condition of a macro name, a process technology name, a kind of the macro data, a macro revision, and a macro demander. In a first delivery processing, the macro data of the macro permitted for delivery through the delivery control processing is delivered to the macro demander.

  • Publication number: 20060206430
    Abstract: A software management system includes a receiving unit that receives inspection information that indicates whether each of software components registered within a predetermined period has passed or failed in an inspection; a detecting unit that detects a software component that has failed in the inspection based on the inspection information; a determining unit that determines whether a revised version of the software component detected is registered after the predetermined period; and an output unit that outputs information indicating that at least such software components are permitted to be packaged that have passed the inspection, based on determination by the determining unit.
