A driving system for driving an AC motor, which is capable of promptly switching to an individual inverter operation mode, wherein a control instruction for each of a plurality of power converters is generated by summing outputs of a plurality of current compensation units connected in parallel, and each of the plurality of current compensation units makes compensation to reduce a deviation of a detected output current value of an associated power converter from a current instruction value to be...

A driving circuit suitable for driving pixels in an LCD array includes dual channel digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Each dual channel DAC outputs on channel A and channel B outputs the analog version of an applied digital signal and a non-passing voltage, respectively, and switches these outputs in response to a toggle signal. The DAC outputs are applied to paired output transistors such that one transistor of each transistor pair is rendered conductive and the other transistor is rendered ...

A driving circuit such as for driving pixels of an LCD includes first and second digital-to-analog converters respectively coupled to receive first and second digital input values. The outputs of the first and second digital-to-analog converters are connected to first and second output transistors, the outputs of which are connected together to a driving voltage output terminal. A predetermined voltage is applied to the gate of each output transistor. The first and second digital-to-analog conve...

In a method of driving a display (D), field information from a field of an image signal is distributed (DD) over a plurality of sub-fields, and a start time for each sub-field is generated (AU, SOC) in dependence upon motion.

A cable driving device for use in a window regulator is made simple in structure and is reduced in weight and size. When a worm wheel 6 to which motor power is transmitted, a damper 8 for absorbing shock, and a drum 7 wound with wires 9 for opening and closing a window glass are assembled into a casing 4 integrally formed with a front bracket 3, damper bodies 8a, 8b are fitted into cavities 6d formed through the worm wheel 6 with a gap S interposed therebetween, and tongues 8c extending downward...

A device and method for driving a concentrated winding synchronous motor which, upon supply of a given electric current to a stator coil of the motor, generates an increased torque. Periodical corrections are executed to the waveform of the current to be supplied to the coils of each phase of the stator and corrections are executed to decrease the alternating current supplied to the coil of any tooth at which a portion of a magnetic field generated, with respect to the pole of the closest rotor,...

A display panel drive apparatus can reduce power consumption upon writing pixel data. The display panel drive apparatus reduces a resonance amplitude of the resonance pulse voltage source carrying the generation of the pixel data pulse while keeping maximum potential level thereof, when at least two of the supplied pixel data neighboring each other in column direction assume the same logic value as each other.

A smooth impact drive mechanism utilizing an electromechanical conversion element, in which a preheating voltage to preheat the electromechanical conversion element is impressed thereto before the impression of a drive voltage to the electromechanical conversion element, in order to realize stable drive characteristics by reducing fluctuation in the speed of the moving unit. In addition, drive parameters are changed in accordance with the temperature of the electromechanical conversion element. ...

A driving circuit reduces fall delay time, and the output timing of a driving current can be controlled highly accurately while reducing ringing during a transition of output current. Because transistor QN4 diode-connected to node ND3 and resistor element R1 are connected in parallel at driver part 30, transistor QN4 becomes conductive first as voltage V.sub.g of node ND3 falls according to input signal S.sub.in, and in accordance with a time constant based on combined resistance including its o...

A wrench set includes a drive handle with an impact end and a drive end. The drive end engages a drive wrench having a slot which receives the drive end of the drive handle. The opposite end of the drive wrench includes a laterally projecting or transversely projecting drive socket connection for attachment of any one of a set of sockets.
