Abstract: One embodiment provides a vehicle brake hydraulic pressure control apparatus configured to perform a vehicle hold control which controls a brake hydraulic pressure when a vehicle comes to a halt. The vehicle brake hydraulic pressure control apparatus includes: a behavior determination section configured to determine whether or not a behaving amount in a lateral direction of the vehicle is equal to or larger than a first threshold; and an operation determination section configured to determine whether or not a control member provided to control the vehicle is operated. Further, the vehicle hold control is canceled at least when the behavior determination section determines that the behaving amount is equal to or larger than the first threshold and the operation determination section determines that the control member is operated.

Abstract: One embodiment provides a vehicle brake hydraulic pressure control apparatus configured to perform a pressure hold control to hold a brake hydraulic pressure in a state in which a vehicle comes to a halt. Further, the pressure hold control is canceled using an initial pressure reduction mode in which the brake hydraulic pressure is reduced at one of a rapid pressure reduction rate of a previously-set given gradient and a normal pressure reduction rate calculated based at least on an accelerator opening, which is higher and a latter pressure reduction mode in which the brake hydraulic pressure is reduced at the normal pressure reduction rate after the brake hydraulic pressure has been reduced to a switching threshold by the initial pressure reduction mode.

Abstract: A vehicle brake hydraulic pressure control apparatus includes a pressure increasing section, a holding section, and a determination section and wheel speed sensors. The pressure increasing section increases a brake hydraulic pressure by driving a motor. The holding section holds a brake hydraulic pressure. The determination section determines whether or not the motor is malfunctional. The wheel speed sensors detect whether or not a vehicle which is at a halt starts to move. If the wheel speed sensors detect that the vehicle starts to move while the holding section is executing a holding control, the pressure increasing section executes a hydraulic pressure re-increasing control by driving the motor, and the determination section determines whether or not the motor is malfunctional based on a detection result by the wheel speed sensors after the brake hydraulic pressure is started to be increased by the hydraulic pressure re-increasing control.

Abstract: The surface of a signal electrode is treated as substrate treatment. An oxide film on the surface of the signal electrode is removed by roughing. The roughened surface is used as a surface treated face. A coating of fluororesin is provided on the surface treated face for lining or thermal welding to the lining material. A signal electrode is provided in the resin lining. Since the oxide film was removed from the surface of the signal electrode for roughening, the adhesive force of the coating of the fluororesin is increased. The fluororesin coating and the resin lining melt each other, and the fluororesin coating is strongly bonded to the resin lining. The adhesion between the signal electrode and the resin lining is increased without opening a hole in the signal electrode. A method uses a primer film formed by substrate treatment on the surface of the signal electrode.

A plurality of electronic components are mounted on a mounting part of the flexible substrate. The flexible substrate is bent at a first bent part thereof to make an acute angle with the solid-state image sensing device and also bent at a second bent part thereof to make an acute angle with the external connection part. The two acute angles are alternate angles and the solid-state image sensing device has a cross section of the letter Z.

Abstract: In a constant current circuit, a constant current is caused to flow through a resistor, thereby causing a constant voltage to occur across the resistor. This constant voltage is then superimposed on an output signal of an operational amplifier that is to be fed back to the drain of a field effect transistor, thereby maintaining the same potential in an AC manner between the output terminal of the operational amplifier and the drain of the field effect transistor. In this way, the gate and drain of the field effect transistor is caused to exhibit the same potential in an AC manner, so that no current will occur through the stray capacitance between the gate and drain of the field effect transistor. As a result, similarly to a case of using a feedback capacitor, the input impedance of the field effect transistor can be raised.
