An impedance adjusting circuit for adjusting an impedance of an output buffer of a DDR2 memory, using an OCD impedance adjusting function, from a side of a memory controller, includes first and second terminals, first and second switches, a comparator, and a control circuit. The DDR2 memory has an OCD impedance adjusting function and includes a first output buffer and a second buffer each having a pull-up buffer and a pull-down buffer that receive an input signal in common and with impedances th...

A tappet clearance automatic adjusting device comprising an adjusting unit for advancing/retracting an adjust screw from the forward end of a rocker arm and adjusting the projection amount, a torque detecting section for detecting the torque by rotating the adjust screw, and a control mechanism section for controlling the adjusting unit based on a torque value measured at the torque detecting section. The control mechanism section starts retracting the adjust screw when a valve is opened and con...

A parameter adjusting device and a parameter adjusting method configured to adjust a great number of parameters used for a circuit design model of a semiconductor element such as a transistor within a short time. A parameter adjusting device adapts a circuit design model wherein a formula for analysis is derived based on a surface potential such as, for example, the HiSIM, as the circuit design model of a semiconductor element; defines a chromosome wherein a respective great number of parameters...

When a voltage is applied between outside electrodes and a common electrode that constitute driving parts of a driving unit provided between a holder holding a lens and a lens barrel, as shown in FIG. 9, respective dielectric elastomers provided in the driving parts are slightly deformed in a direction that is crushed in an X1 X2 direction. Thus, the entire lens can be slightly moved in the direction of an arrow (X2-direction). This enables an optical axis O'--O' of the lens to coincide with or ...

A beam adjusting sample having a flat surface being like a plate and having two edges orthogonal to each other is employed. A beam is applied to the beam adjusting sample to detect an amount of the beam passing through the beam adjusting sample. The beam vertically scans the two edges.

The invention relates to a fine-adjusting device made of a metal plate (30,40), in which slots, arranged in pairs and ending at both ends in holes, form at least a bar parallelogram (30-33; 40-43) with play-free flexible hinges (34-37, 44-47) as pivots, each bar parallelogram being provided with a fixed bar (30;40), a shifting bar (33;43) parallel to this fixed bar and two pivoting bars (31,32; 41,42). For a combined X-Y adjustment two shifting bars (33,43), which are at right angles to each oth...

An adjusting mechanism for installing angle of appliances includes a first leg part rotatably mounted at one end portion to a bottom part of an appliance for supporting the appliance at a first installing position as rotated by a predetermined angle from a position being in parallel to the bottom part with the other end portion engaged with an installing plane, and a second leg part rotatably mounted at one end portion to the other end portion of the first leg part for supporting the appliance a...

An automatic adjusting device for accurately adjusting a platen gap including an encoder 14 for outputting pulse signals in accordance with a moving distance of a carriage, a pulse width detector for detecting a pulse width of the pulse signal when the carriage is moved from a reference position in a direction of the platen, a difference calculator for calculating a difference between a pulse width of the pulse signal sent from the pulse width detector and a pulse width of a stored pulse signal,...

At the start of a process, an information presenting section presents information expressed by a solution vector, while an auxiliary information presenting section presents information for facilitating comparative evaluation of multiple pieces of information being presented simultaneously. Based on these pieces of information, the user evaluates each solution vector. A model estimation executing section generates an evaluation model for an adjustment process from a user evaluation history, and t...

An arrangement for regulating the temperature inside a vehicle includes a casing containing a heat exchanger and a transverse-flow blower for moving air through the heat exchanger. The blower includes an impeller and the casing has a guide wall opposite the impeller which starts at a point close to the impeller and extends in a spiral of increasing radius through an angle of about 180.degree. around the impeller axis and has a continuation tangent to its end remote from the impeller. A wedge-sha...
