A power amplifier module includes an output-stage amplifier, a driver-stage amplifier, an input switch, an output switch, an input matching circuit, an inter-stage matching circuit, an output matching circuit, and a control circuit. The input switch selectively connects one of a plurality of input signal paths to an input terminal of the driver-stage amplifier. The output switch selectively connects one of a plurality of output signal paths to an output terminal of the output-stage amplifier. The control circuit controls operations of the driver-stage amplifier and the output-stage amplifier. The input switch, the output switch, and the control circuit are integrated into an IC chip. The control circuit is disposed between the input switch and the output switch.

A power amplifier circuit includes a power amplifier, first and second filters, and first and second output paths. The power amplifier is able to amplify both of a first signal and a second signal. The frequency of the second signal is higher than that of the first signal. The first filter includes a first inductor and attenuates the second signal amplified in the power amplifier. The first inductor serves as a path for the first signal amplified in the power amplifier. The second filter includes a first capacitor and attenuates the first signal amplified in the power amplifier. The first capacitor serves as a path for the second signal amplified in the power amplifier. The first signal outputted from the first filter is supplied to the first output path. The second signal outputted from the second filter is supplied to the second output path.

In the channeled spectroscopic polarimetry, a measurement error of a parameter showing a spectropolarization characteristic of a sample is effectively removed, the error being generated by various variations in retardation of a retarder depending upon the state of the sample. With attention being focused that the retardation of the retarder may be kept constant by stabilization of an incident direction of light that transmits through the retarder, the retarder was arranged on the light source side with respect to the sample so as to effectively remove an influence relative to a measurement error, such as variations in direction of a light ray due to the sample.

A target surface of a target object including portions having different curvatures is inspected by using an illuminating device and a camera that are fixed, a supporting device for supporting the target object such that its position and orientation are variable. The position and orientation of the target object are controlled as its image is obtained for a plurality of times. The position and orientation of the target object are controlled such that the image of any point on the target surface will be included in at least one of the images obtained by the camera.
