A device and method for monitoring a patient having a sensing device taking sensor data continuously and a transmitter located on the patient and internally powered. The transmitter is normally in a power-down state and powered-up for transmitting the sensor data. A receiver is located remote from the patient and receives the sensor data transmitted wirelessly from the transmitter. The transmission is typically a burst and can also be initiated on a command. For the burst, the sensor data is accumulated over a first period. The transmitter can transmit the sensor data over a second period of time. The second period of time is shorter than the first period of time. Once the transmission is complete, transmitter can be powered down. A further step displays the sensor data at the receiver in pseudo real-time. The display is shifted by a sum of the first and the second period of time.

In a pulse frequency modulated (PFM) voltage regulator, a PFM switching controller is provided to generate a PFM switching signal for converting a DC voltage source to an output voltage. A minimum OFF-time controller provides the PFM switching signal with a minimum OFF-time. In response to the output voltage, a feedback circuit generates a feedback signal. When the output voltage is lower than a predetermined target voltage, an OFF-time prolonging circuit prolongs the minimum OFF-time in response to the feedback signal. In other words, a time of delivering energy to a capacitor from an inductor may be prolonged by the OFF-time prolonging circuit. Therefore, a ripple of the output voltage is effectively reduced when the PFM voltage regulator is operated in a heavy loading condition.

Sufficient yield strength is achieved against tensile, compressive and shearing forces working on steel frame columns and steel frame girders by using simply configured connective fittings to reduce costs and construction periods. For this purpose, a connective structure of highly rigid steel frame columns and steel frame girders formed by connecting steel frame columns and steel frame girders each having a web part and flange parts with connective fittings is provided. Each of the connective fittings has a bottom plate part and, on a surface of the bottom plate part, side plate parts which rise at a substantially right angle to the bottom plate part and have inserting areas extending farther than a tip of the bottom plate part in the state of rising at the substantially right angle. On the other hand, slit holes are formed in the flange parts of the steel frame columns in the area where the flange parts cross the flange parts of the steel frame girders, the inserting areas of the side plate parts are inserted into the slit holes, the inserting areas of the side plate parts are fixed in a state of opposing the web parts of the steel frame columns, and the bottom plate parts of the connective fittings are fixed in a state of opposing the flange parts of the steel frame girders.

A motor driving apparatus includes a comparator, a threshold controller, a position determining unit, a phase-switching controller, and a current output unit. While the rotor is stopped, the phase-switching controller supplies a predetermined phase of winding with a current pulse having a predetermined pulse width so as not to cause the rotor to react and operate, in order to determine the initial position of the rotor. The position determining unit determines an initial position of the rotor based on the result of comparison between the induced voltage generated in a non-conduction phase by the current pulse and the threshold. The phase-switching controller performs energization or commutation according to the determined initial position of the rotor to start up the motor.

And, a transition time of an edge of a sampling pulse during the horizontal scanning period is set longer than a transition time of an edge of the sampling pulse during a time period other than the horizontal scanning period.

A camera washing device has an air pump, a wash water tank storing wash water, an injection nozzle with an injection part, a junction joint having a high-pressure air passage and a wash water passage, and an electromagnetic valve. The air pump generates and supplies high-pressure air to the high-pressure air passage. When the control part instructs the electromagnetic valve to be switched to an open state, the wash water and the high-pressure air are mixed in the junction joint to generate water particles. The generated water particles are supplied to the injection nozzle. When the electromagnetic valve is switched to the open state after injecting the high-pressure air only to a lens of a rear camera, the injection part injects the water particles to the lens of the camera.
