A semiconductor device and a method for controlling body bias thereof capable of properly controlling body bias of a transistor even in a case where process variation occurs are provided. Operation speeds of ring oscillators ROSCn and ROSCp respectively change due to an influence of process variation at an NMOS transistor MN side and a PMOS transistor MP side. Speed/bias data represent a correspondence relationship between the operation speeds of the ring oscillators ROSCn and ROSCp and set values Vn and Vp of body biases VBN and VBP. A body bias controller receives speed values Sn and Sp measured for the ring oscillators ROSCn and ROSCp to which the body biases VBN and VBP based on default values are respectively applied, and obtains the set values Vn and Vp on the basis of the speed/bias data.

The present invention is to provide a structure that can effectively reduce quench in an open superconducting magnet. In order to do so, a pair of superconducting magnets is respectively provided with a primary coil, a shield coil to suppress a leakage magnetic field of the primary coil, and a coil bobbin. The coil bobbin has a cylindrical part on which the primary coil is wound, a ring-shaped end plate on which the inner periphery part is fixed to an end of the imaging space side of the cylindrical part, and a support member preventing the outer periphery part of the ring-shaped end plate from being displaced on the imaging space side. Hence, deformation of the end plate is suppressed to prevent deformation of the primary coil. This can reduce quench caused by the deformation of the primary coil.

A video server has a table generator, a rebuild processor, and a rebuild controller. The table generator generates a management table of content data ID that specifies the content data and the write location of the content data in the storage unit where the content data are recorded. When a problem takes place in at least one of the storage devices, the rebuild processor executes a rebuild process to recover the content data of the troubled storage device. When a rebuild start request is generated by the rebuild processor, the rebuild controller controls the start and stop of the rebuild process by referring to the management table.

In an instantaneous voltage drop compensating device, when an instantaneous drop occurs, an electric power transformer () performs an inverter action so that the electric power of a side-by-side placed capacitor () is DC/AC-converted and fed to a load (). At this time, a capacitor's remaining lifetime diagnosing unit () introduces the DC voltage value, the DC current value, and the temperature value of the side-by-side placed capacitor () thereinto, and uses a prestored program for computing a remaining lifetime, thereby diagnosing the remaining lifetime, for which the side-by-side placed capacitor () can be used under the state where a capacitor discharge time period exceeds a rated compensation time period. As a result, the remaining lifetime, for which the side-by-side placed capacitor () can be used, can be diagnosed under the situations where the discharge time period for the side-by-side placed capacitor () to discharge while outputting the rated electric power exceeds the rated compensation time period required as the time period for which an electric power compensating device has to output the rated electric power.
