Abstract: An execution device according to exemplary embodiments includes an operation device, a first acceleration sensor, a second acceleration sensor, and a control device. The operation device executes a predetermined operation. The first acceleration sensor detects acceleration in a first direction along a horizontal direction. The second acceleration sensor detects acceleration in a second direction intersecting the first direction along the horizontal direction. The control device recognizes a transport position of the execution device in the semiconductor manufacturing apparatus based on output values from the first acceleration sensor and the second acceleration sensor. When it is recognized that the execution device is transported to a predetermined position, the control device causes the operation device to execute the predetermined operation.

Abstract: A system includes one or more memory circuits and one or more sensor circuits that are separate from the memory circuits. A temperature estimation circuit estimates a temperature of the memory circuits based on sensor measurements from the sensor circuits and based on an empirically-derived relationship between the temperature and the sensor measurements. The temperature estimate is finer in granularity than a temperature indication provided by the memory circuits. For example, a given temperature indication value covers a range of 5 degrees Celsius, while the temperature estimate may be any integer temperature value or a decimal temperature value (e.g., to tenths or hundredths of degrees C.). A power control circuit in the system uses the temperature estimate to control a rate at which one or more agent circuits in the system generate memory requests to the memory circuit, which may control the temperature of the memory circuits.

The core temperature probe includes a temperature sensor to determine a temperature information, a coaxial line including a lambda/4 line resonance element adjusted to a microwave frequency, and a signal transmission antenna connected to the temperature sensor via the coaxial line and adapted to emit the temperature information at a signal transmission frequency that differs from the microwave frequency. The system is hereby constructed to transmit a signal at the signal transmission frequency wirelessly between the signal transmission antenna of the core temperature probe and a signal transmission antenna of the microwave cooking appliance.

The temperature sensor unit includes an FPC to be positioned on an energy storage device body, a temperature sensor connected to a detection line of the FPC, a housing disposed on the FPC and covering the temperature sensor, and a biasing member elastically and deformably held in the housing and configured to bias the lower housing of the housing toward the energy storage device body by elastic restoring force to bring the temperature sensor into contact with the energy storage device body with the FPC therebetween.

Abstract: The present invention provides a subsea apparatus for testing a hydraulic signature which has a fluid supply, a first pressure line coupled to the fluid supply, a second pressure line coupled to the fluid supply; and a pressure recording device operatively coupled to both the first pressure line and the second pressure line. A pressure recording device is capable of storing pre-determined pressure data representative of said pressure lines. The first pressure line functions at a lower pressure than the second pressure line while a pressure recording device records data to allow comparison of actual pressure data on the first and second pressure lines with said stored data.
