  • Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey
    06-ORD 70H-002AA 7 Japanese Manufacturing Affiliates in Europe and Turkey - 2005 Survey - September 2006 Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO) Preface The survey on “Japanese manufacturing affiliates in Europe and Turkey” has been conducted 22 times since the first survey in 1983*. The latest survey, carried out from January 2006 to February 2006 targeting 16 countries in Western Europe, 8 countries in Central and Eastern Europe, and Turkey, focused on business trends and future prospects in each country, procurement of materials, production, sales, and management problems, effects of EU environmental regulations, etc. The survey revealed that as of the end of 2005 there were a total of 1,008 Japanese manufacturing affiliates operating in the surveyed region --- 818 in Western Europe, 174 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 16 in Turkey. Of this total, 291 affiliates --- 284 in Western Europe, 6 in Central and Eastern Europe, and 1 in Turkey --- also operate R & D or design centers. Also, the number of Japanese affiliates who operate only R & D or design centers in the surveyed region (no manufacturing operations) totaled 129 affiliates --- 125 in Western Europe and 4 in Central and Eastern Europe. In this survey we put emphasis on the effects of EU environmental regulations on Japanese manufacturing affiliates. We would like to express our great appreciation to the affiliates concerned for their kind cooperation, which have enabled us over the years to constantly improve the survey and report on the results. We hope that the affiliates and those who are interested in business development in Europe and/or Turkey will find this report useful.

  • OKI Implements Sarnoff's Takecharge On-Chip ESD Protection in High
    Also available on Business Wire 08/26/05 For Immediate Release OKI® Implements Sarnoff’s Takecharge® On-Chip ESD Protection In High-Voltage ICs Design Approach for On-Chip ESD Protection Successfully Implemented in High-Voltage Chips TOKYO, JAPAN / PRINCETON, NJ, USA / GISTEL, BELGIUM (August 26, 2005) – Oki® Electric Industry Co., Ltd. (TSE: 6703, www.oki.com) of Tokyo, Japan, has successfully produced ICs in 0.5um/43V, 0.35um/16.5V, and 0.25um/25V process technologies using TakeCharge® design technology from Sarnoff Europe of Gistel, Belgium. Sarnoff is a diversified technology & services company with a long history of semiconductor innovations. “Under a technology transfer agreement, Oki has licensed silicon-proven TakeCharge devices customized specifically for our high-voltage processes. Our goal is to ensure that we can consistently manufacture chips that perform at high voltages with full electrostatic discharge (ESD) and latch-up protection,” said Mr. Shiratori, Deputy General Manager, Display Driver Division of Oki’s Silicon Solution Company. “We have implemented these TakeCharge devices in our various high volume products, such as LCD and OLED driver devices, where they deliver substantial added value for Oki and its customers.” TakeCharge technology is a design approach to on-chip ESD circuitry. It reduces the size of the I/O section on IC dies, while maintaining or improving on- chip protection against ESD. Implementing robust ESD protection devices is an important part of IC design. “We’re very pleased that an industry leader like Oki has chosen TakeCharge for its new line of high-voltage ICs,” said Koen Verhaege, Managing Director of Sarnoff”s Integrated Circuit Systems & Services business unit and Executive Director of Sarnoff Europe.

  • Line Array Sensor Comparison Hamamatsu S11639 Sony ILX511B Toshiba TCD1205DG
    AdvancedMEMS 2325 Third Street Suite 325 San Francisco, CA 94107 Phone: (415) 374-7592 E-Mail: [email protected] Line Array Sensor Comparison Hamamatsu S11639 Sony ILX511B Toshiba TCD1205DG Daniel T. McCormick, PhD April 22, 2016 Version 1.0 © AdvancedMEMS 2016 Initial Release v1.0 Introduction Linear image sensor arrays are critical components in a broad range of applications including spectroscopy, machine vision, barcode scanners, position detection, encoding and medical imaging. Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) have historically been the dominant technology utilized in realizing linear imaging sensor arrays as well as two-dimensional sensing arrays for industrial and scientific applications. The Sony ILX511B has long been one of the primary linear image sensors employed in low- cost, diffractive UV-VIS spectrometers as well as numerous other industrial applications. The ILX511B is a front illuminated CCD device offering high sensitivity at a low cost. The TCD1205DG is a popular CCD sensor offered by Toshiba. Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) based image sensor technology has advanced dramatically in the past 20 years, driven mainly by consumer and cost sensitive industrial imaging markets. The improvements in CMOS imager technology have resulted in these devices becoming viable options in many fields, which had previously been dominated exclusively by CCD technologies. In 2014 Hamamatsu released the S11639 linear array CMOS sensor, and in 2015 an improved version of the sensor, the S11639-01. As in most real world cases there are some advantages and disadvantages to both CCD and CMOS technologies. It is beyond the scope of this technical note to discuss in detail these differences.

  • Supernova Saves the Day – and the Budget
    Supernova saves the day – and the budget The Copenhagen-based insurance company LB Forsikring has many meeting spaces in their beautiful building in the heart of Copenhagen, including an auditorium with room for more than 150 people. Recently the company decided to upgrade the auditorium's old AV system and turned to Danish AV specialists Ricoh Danmark for advice. LB Forsikring was looking for a clean, aesthetic solution that could deliver high-quality images and good display readability from anywhere in the room – even with bright sunlight coming in through the windows. Moreover, the solution should include options for live streaming of content to other departments in the building. Last but not least, the solution had to come at a cost-effective price. Ricoh Danmark Market Manager, Michael Hansen was given the task to come up with the right solution. An aesthetic and cost-effective solution “I have used dnp Supernova Screens in many installations before, and they never let me down – even in situations with high ambient light. Supernova provides a much better contrast than a traditional white screen”, says Ricoh Danmark Market Manager, Michael Hansen. “For this specific room, I selected the Supernova Infinity UST 160, which provides a high level of contrast and high readability and natural colors in the images. I recommended a projector with an Ultra Wide Angle lens that could be hidden in the ceiling. This makes it possible for presenters to stand in front of the screen without blocking the projected image and casting shadows on the screen.” Live streaming throughout the whole building An extension pack with network functions for both audio and video streaming makes it possible to participate in presentations from the auditorium from other departments in the building.

  • Initiatives for AI Ethics: Formulation of Fujitsu Group AI Commitment
    Initiatives for AI Ethics: Formulation of Fujitsu Group AI Commitment Tsuneo Nakata Tatsuki Araki Satoshi Tsuchiya Yuri Nakao Aisha Naseer Junichi Arahori Takahiko Yamamoto While AI technology provides significant benefits, downsides of AI have also been reported, including AI that uses biased data for learning makes unfair decisions. To prevent further ad- vancements in the technology from causing serious side effects, AI ethics are being discussed and many organizations and companies have recently announced new guidelines regarding AI. When Fujitsu released FUJITSU Human Centric AI Zinrai in 2015, we proposed “collabora- tive, human centric AI” and have paid attention to the ethical aspects of AI. In March 2019, we announced the Fujitsu Group AI Commitment that expresses our approach to AI ethics in a concrete and easy-to-understand manner based on the results of over 30 years of R&D and so- cial implementation of AI. The promises of the Fujitsu Group AI Commitment were formulated in cooperation with AI4People, Europe’s expert forum, and are in accordance with the AI eth- ics principles that the forum advocates.
