A binding band includes a band portion, a through opening, a locking portion, a connecting portion, and an index portion. The band portion includes a plurality of locking teeth on one surface of the band portion. The band portion is to be inserted through the through opening. The through opening is disposed on one end of the band portion in a longitudinal direction of the band portion. The locking portion includes a tooth pawl configured to lock the locking teeth when the band portion is inserted through the through opening. The connecting portion protrudes from the locking portion in a direction intersecting the longitudinal direction of the band portion. The index portion is disposed on the connecting portion.

Binding band

A die bonding device for installing electronic components S on a metal stem, comprising a bonding nozzle for suctioning an electronic component S and positioning the electronic component S on a component mounting face of the stem, a stem carrying head for carrying the stem, a heater section for heating the electronic component S while it is positioned on the component mounting face of the stem, and an imaging camera having a light axis L extending through the component mounting face of the stem when positioned inside the heater section, which performs reciprocating motion in the direction of the light axis L.

Die bonding device

A data transmission processing system provided between a host unit and peripheral devices including at least a memory device and a processing device. The host unit outputs, to the transmission processing system, DMA transmission process request commands. The data transmission process system includes a DMA control unit, provided with a plurality of DMA channels, for cyclically selecting a DMA channel from the plurality of DMA channels in accordance with a predetermined priority, the plurality of DMA channels being allocated to processes with respect to the peripheral devices, and a DMA execution unit for carrying out a DMA transmission process for transmitting data output from the host unit to the memory device via a selected DMA channel corresponding to the memory device in data transmission timing of the host unit and a DMA transmission process for transmitting data stored in the memory device to the processing device via a selected DMA channel corresponding to the processing device in accordance with the DMA transmission process request commands supplied from the host unit.

Data Transmission processing system having DMA channels running

A dual mode thermal printer has two modes of operation, i.e., a multi-color recording mode and a monochromatic recording mode. The thermal printer includes a thermal printhead provided with a plurality of resistor elements which are functionally divided into a plurality of blocks, each preferably having the same number of resistor elements. During the multi-color recording mode, the plurality of resistor elements are activated in accordance with image data on a block-by-block basis; whereas, during the monochromatic recording mode, at least two blocks of the plurality of resistor elements are activated at the same time.
