Content output device

An Internet radio device (10), when an N-th radio station server (200) is selected, receives streaming contents from five N−2-th to N+2-th radio station servers (200, 200, . . . ), writes them respectively into five buffers, and reads only the streaming content from the N-th radio station server (200) via the buffer and reproduces it. After that, when a station change operation is performed for a change to a neighboring station, that is, the N−1-th or N+1-th radio station server (200), the Internet radio device (10) reads only the streaming content from the N−1-th or N+1-th radio station server (200) via the buffer and reproduces it.

Liquid crystal display device and its drive method

A MVA type liquid crystal panel is slow in a response speed when a black state at a drive voltage about 1V is switched to a low brightness halftone state at the drive voltage about 2 to 3V. According to the present invention, in a liquid crystal display device for driving the MVA type liquid crystal panel, when a liquid crystal pixel at a pixel electrode is changed from a first transmittance to a second transmittance greater than the first transmittance, a drive voltage greater than a first target drive voltage in correspondence with a second transmittance is applied to the pixel electrode in a first frame period of changing to the second transmittance, and the first target display voltage is applied from a second frame period. According to the present invention, even when either switching is performed from a black state to a low brightness halftone state, from the black state to a high brightness halftone state, or from the black state to a white state, a response time is shortened, and the switching can be performed without generating an overshoot.

Switching power supply apparatus

In a switching power supply apparatus, a first switching element is controlled by a driving voltage output from a switching control IC. A second switching control circuit controls the on-time of a second switching element so that the time ratio of the on-time of the second switching element to the on-time of the first switching element becomes almost constant with respect to a change in a load current. In a normal load state, since a square wave output from a frequency setting unit within the switching control IC is output with no change, a converter operates in a current-continuous mode. In a light load state, a driving signal generation unit within the switching control IC is subjected to blanking with the period of a signal output from a maximum frequency setting unit and an oscillation frequency is reduced. Accordingly, the converter operates in a current-discontinuous mode.
