| 20090232714 | PARTICULATE COMBUSTION CATALYST, PARTICULATE FILTER, AND EXHAUST GAS CLEAN-UP SYSTEM - A particulate combustion catalyst which includes a carrier containing a cerium-zirconium double oxide having a cerium oxide content of 5 to 50 mass %, or a carrier containing a cerium-zirconium-based double oxide containing an oxide of at least one metal selected from Nd, La, Fe, Y, Pr, Ba, Ca, Mg, Sn, and Sr in an amount of 1 to 35 mass %, and having a cerium oxide content of 5 to 50 mass %; and at least one metal selected from Ag, Ru, and K, or an oxide thereof supported on the carrier, and at least one metal selected from among Pt, Pd, and Rh supported on the carrier in an amount of 0.01 to 2 mass %. A particulate filter and an exhaust gas cleanup system having the catalyst are also disclosed. Employment of the particulate combustion catalyst realizes removal of soot through oxidation at low temperature without employment of an expensive noble metal. Since oxidation reaction proceeds with the aid of only oxygen, soot can be removed through oxidation at low temperature regardless of the NO | 09-17-2009 |
| 20110030354 | PARTICULATE COMBUSTION CATALYST, PARTICULATE FILTER AND EXHAUST GAS PURIFYING APPARATUS - Provided is a particulate combustion catalyst including a carrier formed of Zr oxide, a carrier formed of a Zr—Ce composite oxide, or a carrier formed of a composite oxide containing Zr, Ce, and at least one metal selected from among Nd, La, Fe, Y, Pr, Ba, Ca, Mg, Sn, and Sr; an oxide of at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Ba, Ca, Mg, and Sr, the metal oxide being supported on the carrier in an amount, as reduced to metal, of 0.5 to 30 mass % with respect to the carrier; and metallic Ag or Ag oxide, which serves as a catalyst component and is supported on the carrier. Also provided are a particulate filter coated with the catalyst; and an exhaust gas cleaning apparatus including a particulate filter coated with the catalyst. | 02-10-2011 |
| 20110076202 | PARTICULATE COMBUSTION CATALYST, PARTICULATE FILTER AND EXHAUST GAS PURIFYING APPARATUS - Provided is a particulate combustion catalyst including a carrier formed of monoclinic zirconium oxide particles, and metallic Ag or Ag oxide, which serves as a catalyst component and is supported on the carrier, wherein the amount of the catalyst component is 0.5 to 10 mass %, as reduced to metallic Ag, on the basis of the mass of the carrier, and preferably, the catalyst has a BET specific surface area of 8 to 21 m | 03-31-2011 |

| 20090243901 | PIPELINE-TYPE ANALOG-TO-DIGITAL CONVERTER - A pipeline-type AID converter includes: N number of stages cascade-connected; and a digital correction circuit that receives digital signals outputted from the N number of stages and outputs a final digital signal. In the converter, an Mth stage in the N number of stages includes: a sub A/D converter A/D-converting an input analog signal; a sub D/A converter D/A converting a digital signal outputted from the sub A/D converter; a differential amplifier circuit that includes a sample hold circuit and an operational amplifier, performs an sampling operation and a holding operation to obtain a difference between the input analog signal and an output signal of the sub D/A converter, and amplifies the difference; and a compensation circuit compensating a gain error of the operational amplifier in an operation of the differential amplifier circuit, the gain error being caused by parasitic capacitance between an input terminal and an output terminal of the operational amplifier, and 1≦M| 10-01-2009 | |
| 20100073032 | VOLTAGE COMPARATOR AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A differential amplifier circuit, a differentiation circuit and an output amplifier circuit are provided. The differential amplifier circuit differentially amplifies differentially inputted signals and provides an output. The differentiation circuit differentiates the output of the differential amplifier circuit, and adds the differentiated output to a bias voltage of a constant current transistor of the output amplifier circuit. A voltage comparator capable of higher speed operation without increasing its current consumption is provided. | 03-25-2010 |
