Abstract: Two temperature areas are set at a higher temperature side and at a lower temperature side of target temperature respectively. The power stage of the temperature areas at the higher temperature side is set to −1 and the power stage of the temperature areas at the lower temperature side is set to +1. Thus, a current value is varied little and generation of flicker can be reduced. Further, A temperature can be always converged into the target temperature. When a temperature is in a temperature area near to the target temperature, the power stage is maintained except for a case in which a temperature has passed through a temperature area other than this near temperature area and the target temperature area and enters this near temperature area for the first time. Thus, an amplitude of power can be suppressed.

Abstract: A common mode choke coil is described that is capable of providing improved characteristics at high frequencies. A bobbin having a toroidal core is mounted on a base. One coil is wound around one half of the bobbin and another coil is wound around the other half thereof. Both ends of each of the coils are connected to corresponding terminals provided on the base. The one coil has its one end connected to one of the terminals, is wound around one half of the bobbin from one side of the bobbin, finishes above the bobbin, that is, at the inner circumference of a core, leads out toward the other terminal provided on the base travelling along the outer face of a plate vertically mounted on the other side of the bobbin, and is connected to the terminal. The same applies to the other coil.
