A solid state imaging device comprises: photoelectrical converting elements arranged on a semiconductor substrate in a row direction and a column direction substantially perpendicular to each other, wherein charges are accumulated in said photoelectrical converting elements; and a plurality of output sections that output signals corresponding to accumulated charges, said photoelectrical converting elements being arranged in an area that is divided into blocks that correspond to said output secti...

The data processing device of the present invention comprises a print job generating unit 22 for generating a print job in PDL format (PDL job) and a print job in BMI (bitmap image) format (BMI job) for one data file to perform stock printing, a storage device 12 for storing both print jobs, and a means for sending to a printer 15 or 16 the stored print job in response to an instruction from a user.

A yellow, hot melt adhesive traffic marking composition is described. The yellow, hot melt adhesive traffic marking composition contains 10-25 percent by weight of a hot melt adhesive binder, 5-10 percent by weight of a thermally stable 1,5- or 1,8-substituted anthraquinone colorant selected from a 1,5- or 1,8-substituted anthraquinone aromatic thioether and a 1,5- or 1,8-substituted anthraquinone aromatic thioether polyester, and 65-85 weight percent of a filler. The yellow, hot melt adhesive t...

A received video signal that has been inverted at the transmitter is reinverted by the use of low cost pin diodes to reverse the ground and signal lead connections to the primary winding of a transformer operating at RF frequencies.

When a monochromatic original is read, a control is effected to transfer a charge accumulated in a monochromatic photodiode array to a rear stage, and not to accumulate charges in respective color photodiode arrays. When a color original is read, a control is effected to transfer charges accumulated in the respective photodiode arrays and not to accumulate a charge in the monochromatic photodiode array.

A linear color CCD for an image sensor and a method of driving the same. The linear color CCD comprises a photodiode array section for performing a photoelectric conversion operation to produce signal charges corresponding to red, green and blue color signals, the photodiode array section having a first photodiode array for producing the signal charges corresponding to the green color signal, a second photodiode array disposed over the first photodiode array for producing the signal charges corr...

An image reading apparatus comprises a photoelectric converter including three linear image sensors of red, green and blue aligned in parallel to each other along a main scan direction. When a document is scanned, a document is read by the photoelectric converter by moving it relative to the document. The moving direction is set to be a first direction, for a prescan and a second direction reverse to the first direction, for a normal scan. Analog output signals of the first to third linear image...
