Abstract: The cooling system includes a duct that draws in air that is drawn in from an intake side of a cooling target, which is disposed in a room adjusted to a predetermined temperature, that absorbs the heat of the cooling target, and that is exhausted from an exhaust side of the cooling target, and that guides the air to the intake side; a cooler that is provided in the duct and that cools the air; a monitoring device that monitors a cooling state of at least one of the cooling target and the cooler; and a duct adjustment device that operates the duct to guide the air in the duct in a direction different from a direction toward the intake side when the monitoring device detects an abnormality in the cooling state.

Abstract: A piano keyboard computer includes a piano-type keyboard adjacent to a display screen. The system allows music tutorials, visualizations and other applications. A docking system allows additional devices to be placed on, adjacent to, or near the piano keyboard computer. The additional device then communicates with the piano keyboard computer to add functionality such as additional speakers, controllers, etc. The piano keyboard computer can act as a controller for other devices.

Abstract: The inverter functioning as a comparator, dummy inverter having the same electric characteristics as the inverter, and control circuit are provided. Vth detecting input voltage output from the control circuit is input into the dummy inverter, Vth detecting output voltage output from the dummy inverter is input into the control circuit, and the threshold voltage of the dummy inverter is detected. The threshold voltage of the inverter is controlled by controlling the back gate voltages of the MOS transistors of the dummy inverter and the inverter in such a manner that the threshold voltage of the dummy inverter coincide with an external reference voltage.

Abstract: A constant current source circuit includes a current mirror circuit supplying a load circuit with an output current which is regulated on the basis of a reference current, a transistor having an emitter, a collector connected to a first power source line, and a base coupled to the current mirror circuit, and a resistor coupled between the emitter and base. The reference current passes through the resistor. A current control circuit controls a current directed to a second power source line in accordance with a bias voltage. The above current consists of the reference current and a collector current passing through the transistor. A bias circuit having a current path derives the bias voltage from a current passing from the first power source line to the second power source line through the current path.
