Abstract: A method of displaying information in a mobile terminal having a touch screen is provided. The method includes determining whether a touch input is generated by a touch screen, determining whether the touch area moves, calculating a movement direction of the touch area by extracting a value of the touch area movement, determining a current mode according to the calculated movement direction of the touch area, executing a function of the current mode corresponding to the extracted value of the touch area movement, and displaying, while executing the function of the current mode, at least one of a displacement value generated by executing the function of the current mode and a current mode icon indicating the current mode. Accordingly, when displaying information according to a touch input, changes of information may be displayed distinctively, and thereby user convenience may be improved.

Abstract: A position measurement device includes a light source, a reflector coupled to a test object, a light detector between the light source and reflector, and a controller to measure a position of the test object based on an interference pattern generated by a reference beam and a measurement beam output from the light detector.

The temperature control system for semiconductor manufacturing equipment includes a thermocline for cooling heat transfer fluid accommodated therein through a heat exchange with a heat exchanger and storing heat energy, a supply line for controlling the temperature of the heat transfer fluid in the thermocline through a heater and supplying the heat transfer fluid with a proper temperature to a process device, a recovery line for forwarding the heat transfer fluid having passed through the process device to the thermocline, and a bypass for forwarding a part of the heat transfer fluid passing through the recovery line to the supply line through the heater.

Abstract: A tuner, a broadcast signal processing apparatus and method, which satisfy reception sensitivity of both terrestrial and cable televisions, when selecting a broadcast signal through a single conversion tuner, are provided. A tuner selects a broadcast signal of a selected channel. The tuner includes an input filter that filters a received broadcast signal into plural frequency bands based on a predetermined frequency band. An amplifier amplifies a second signal having an original phase induced by an output signal of the respective frequency bands, and a first signal having an opposite phase of the second signal, and outputs the signal induced by the amplified first and second signals as an amplification signal of the signal in the respective frequency bands. An inter-stage filter filters a frequency of the broadcast signal corresponding to the selected channel among the amplification signals output from the amplifier.
