Abstract

In an electric current sensor device 10, a magnetic core 12 is annular and a primary conductor 50 is inserted therein. A load 143 of a drive circuit 14 is a secondary conductor 151 that is wound around the magnetic core 12. A detection resistor 16 converts a current flowing in the secondary conductor 151 into a voltage and generates, at one end thereof, a detection voltage. A drive unit 141 switches the direction of a current flowing in the secondary conductor 151 on the basis of pulse signals. A detection unit 20 detects a current which has flowed in the primary conductor 50 on the basis of the duty ratio of the pulse signals. A pulse signal generation circuit 18 monitors the detection voltage generated at one end of the detection resistor 16 and inverts on/off of the pulse signals. A clock generation unit 201 of the detection unit 20 generates clock signals at a predetermined period. A counter 211 counts the duty ratio of the pulse signals using clock signals.

Abstract

A method includes preparing a first substrate member in which a cavity is formed. Moreover, the method includes preparing a magnetic member having a plurality of magnetic pieces. The magnetic member is placed in the cavity, and the second substrate member is placed on the first substrate member to close the cavity. The cavity is defined at least in part by a pair of wall surfaces facing each other in a lateral direction and opens upward in an up-down direction perpendicular to the lateral direction. The magnetic pieces are coupled with each other by positioning members so as to be arranged at regular intervals in a predetermined direction. The placing of the magnetic member in the cavity is carried out so that the predetermined direction coincides with the lateral direction or a front-rear direction perpendicular to both of the lateral direction and the up-down direction.

Abstract

An electrolytic capacitor according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a valve metal, a dielectric oxide film layer formed on a surface of the valve metal, a surface treatment agent layer formed on the dielectric oxide film layer, and an electrolyte layer formed on the surface treatment agent layer. The electrolyte layer includes a conductive polymer layer and an ionic liquid. For example, the conductive polymer layer is formed so that the conductive polymer layer is in contact with the surface treatment agent layer, and at least some of voids present in an interface between the conductive polymer layer and the surface treatment agent layer are filled with the ionic liquid.
