A three-level power converter includes a direct current power supply unit including a filter capacitor connected between a high potential line and an intermediate potential line and a filter capacitor connected between the intermediate potential line and a low potential line, and a power conversion circuit that converts a three-level direct current voltage output from the high potential line, the intermediate potential line, and the low potential line into a three-phase alternating current voltage. A controller generates an imbalance signal representing an imbalance between a first capacitor voltage and a second capacitor voltage on the basis of values detected by voltage sensors, and generates a modulation signal for causing the power conversion circuit to perform a two-phase modulation operation on the basis of a superimposed signal obtained by superimposing the imbalance signal on a reference signal of the three-phase alternating current voltage.

Three-level power converter and method of controlling intermediate potential of direct current power supply unit

In a method of manufacturing an electronic device, an electronic component and a mount substrate are disposed such that one of surfaces of the electronic component faces toward one of surfaces of the mount substrate, and a connection electrode of the electronic component is electrically connected and mechanically bond to a patterned conductor of the mount substrate. A resin film is then disposed on the electronic component and the mount substrate. A gas captured in between the resin film and the electronic component is sucked through a hole provided in the mount substrate from a side of the mount substrate opposite to the electronic component. The resin film is thereby deformed to closely contact the electronic component and the mount substrate. The resin film is then heated and adhered to the mount substrate.

Electronic device and manufacturing same

A multi power type thermal head which has a heating element for producing heat with different energies, an added resistor being connected to the heating element, first switch element for controlling the heating element in an operation state or a nonoperational state, and second switch element for controlling the heating element and the added resistor in an operation state or a nonoperational state. To control the thermal head in a first energy state, heating the heating element is controlled by the first switching element. To control the thermal head in a second energy state, the heating element and the added resistor are controlled by the second switching element with the heating element and the added resistor connected in series.
