Provided is an energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell having a simple structure. An energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell of the present invention has a photoelectrode and a charge storage electrode on the same surface of a conductive substrate such that the photoelectrode and the charge storage electrode act as one electrode. Hence, the energy storage dye-sensitized solar cell comprises two electrodes: the above-described one electrode and a counter electrode covered with a catalyst, thus having a simple structure.

A dough-like confectionery material contains a solid particulate, a liquid, and a diffusion controller. The dough-like confectionery material is an effective replacement for panned coatings, and it can be applied to an edible substrate, such as candy or chewing gum to form a layered confection. Methods and apparatus for forming layered confections are also described.

A photoelectric-conversion-device dye comprising a ruthenium metal complex, which includes a molecule including elemental phosphorous and the molecule forms a coordinate bond at least at the phosphorous atom, and which also includes a terpyridine derivative that forms a coordinate bond and has at least one adsorbing group that exhibits adsorptivity toward a metal oxide. The adsorbing group is selected from the group consisting of a carboxylic acid group, an ester thereof, or a salt thereof; a phosphonic acid group, an ester thereof, or a salt thereof; a hydroxyl group; an alkoxy group; and a sulfonic acid group or salt thereof. The dye exhibits absorption over a wide range from the visible light region to the near-infrared region, and as a result, a photoelectric conversion film, an electrode, and a solar cell having improved photoelectric conversion efficiency are provided.

It is an object of the invention is to provide a candy composition in which a sugar alcohol is used as a main raw material and which is comparable in intensity of sweetness and quality of sweetness to sugar as well as a candy manufactured using the same. The above object can be accomplished by providing a deliciously sweet candy composition which comprises sugar alcohol as a main raw material and comprises high sweetness intensity sweetener (E), flavoring components (A) maltol and (B) furaneol as essential components, each in an effective amount, and an effective amount of at least one component selected from among flavoring components (C) cyclotene and (D) menthyl acetate.

A time zone start time point calculating unit calculates a time zone to be set in a VOBU in accordance with audio bit rate. A time zone comparing unit compares a time point at which an audio pack is to be multiplexed with the time zone calculated by the time zone start time point calculating unit. A flag setting unit sets whether the audio pack is to be completed or not in accordance with the result of comparison by the time zone comparing unit. Therefore, a completing process takes place before a VOBU boundary, and a completed PCK will not be generated immediately after the VOBU boundary. Thus, generation of a buffer overflow can be prevented.

The stream converting apparatus includes a stream extracting circuit that extracts a second level data stream from a first format data stream, an error detecting circuit that detects an error included in the second level data stream output from the stream extracting circuit, a data correcting circuit that corrects the detected error to generate a proper-form second level data stream, and a multiplexer that multiplexes the corrected second level data stream to generate a second format data stream.

When the CPU writes data into a memory, a 0 detection circuit detects the number of bits having the value 0 from the data. When the number of bits with 0 is equal to or larger than the number of bits with 1, the data output from the CPU is provided to the memory under control of a selector. When the number of bits with 0 is fewer than the number of bits with 1, the data output from the CPU is inverted and provided to the memory under control of the selector. Accordingly, the rewriting frequency of each memory cell from 0 to 1 or from 1 to 0 in the memory can be reduced in average. Thus the power consumption of the memory in a data writing mode can be reduced.

Data processor and data processing method reduced in power consumption during memory access

To provide an image compression coding apparatus and method capable of minimizing a deterioration in picture quality which is caused on a reproduced image during an overflow of an output buffer. A picture top detector (A) executes a picture top detection processing for discarding image compression data (S) until a top of a picture of the image compression data (S) is detected during detection of a start address, and restarts a normal operation after detecting the top of the picture. A processor () brings a detection start register () into a set state and causes the picture top detector (A) to execute the picture top detection processing during an overflow of an output buffer (), and executes an interruption processing of rewriting, as a value of a write address register (), an address where a top of an overflow picture to be a picture causing the overflow is stored.

The data multiplexing device includes a header information memory storing header information, ES buffers holding encoded data of a plurality of media, an output buffer holding packetized data, and a transfer controlling unit controlling a transfer of the header information stored in the header information memory and the encoded data held in the ES buffers and writing into the output buffer as the packetized data. The transfer controlling unit can generate the packetized data simply by controlling the transfer of the header information stored in the header information memory and the encoded data held in the ES buffers, whereby the media multiplexing can be readily achieved.

An encoding device includes a processor unit controlling an overall operation and at the same time having a software for executing an audio encoding process, a video encoding unit to execute a video encoding process, a multiplex process unit to execute a system process and a timing control unit to generate a timing signal for activating an audio encoding process, a video encoding process and a system process, all of these elements are mountable on the same substrate. Each of a control process for controlling the audio encoding process, the video encoding process and system process is executed as an interrupt process. The processor unit includes an interrupt control circuit. The interrupt control circuit selects, based on a predetermined priority, one interrupt process corresponding to at least one generated timing signal.

A signal processing device includes an integrated processor, a video processing unit coding a video signal, and an interface controlling a bus ownership between the integrated processor and an external processor. The interface detects the integrated processor accessing an external device and asserts a bus request. Thus the signal processing device can process data with a shorter cycle and thus more efficiently.
