ASCA capability of X-ray imaging spectroscopy up to 10 keV. allows us to examine the emission and absorption feature from AGN. Warm absorber, low energy lines and broad iron K lines are confirmed from Sy I’s. High sensitivity in broad energy band makes it possible to distinguish multiple components emerged by different processes. Detection of X-rays from faint sources tells us various galaxies may harbor AGN sometimes with obscuration tori. They might have considerable contribution to CXB.
