Abstract: A microcomputer is provided, which eliminates the need of input of a selection signal to select whether an external oscillator element is connected to generate an internal clock signal or an external clock signal is inputted to generate an internal clock signal. In this microcomputer, a delay circuit generates a delayed reset signal from an external reset signal to have a specific delay period. An external clock signal detection circuit detects an external clock signal at a second terminal, outputting a detection signal. An oscillation control signal generation circuit generates an oscillation control signal for an amplifier circuit, where the oscillation control signal is generated corresponding to a detection signal outputted from an external clock signal detection circuit. The oscillation control signal is used to activate the amplifier when the external clock signal does not exist at the second terminal and to inactivate the amplifier when the external clock signal exists at the second terminal.

Abstract: The present inventors established ES cell lines in which one of Cds1 (Chk2) alleles was inactivated by using gene targeting. Chimeric mice were constructed using the cell lines, and genetically modified mice in which both of the Cds1 (Chk2) alleles were inactivated were constructed. Furthermore, by incubating the ES cell lines in which one of Cds1 (Chk2) alleles was inactivated in a selection medium containing a high concentration of an antibiotic, the present inventors constructed mouse ES cell lines in which both the alleles were inactivated. The mice and cells established from the mice can be utilized in screenings for compounds that regulate the cell cycle.

Abstract: A microcomputer is provided, which eliminates the need of input of a select-on signal to select whether an external oscillator element is connected to generate an internal clock signal or an external clock signal is inputted to generate an internal clock signal. In this microcomputer, a delay circuit generates a delayed reset signal from an external reset signal to have a specific delay period. An external clock signal detection circuit detects an external clock signal at a second terminal, outputting a detection signal. An oscillation control signal generation circuit generates an oscillation control signal for an amplifier circuit, where the oscillation control signal is generated corresponding to a detection signal outputted from an external clock signal detection circuit. The oscillation control signal is used to activate the amplifier when the external clock signal does not exist at the second terminal and to inactivate the amplifier when the external clock signal exists at the second terminal.

Abstract: An instruction code is received by an instruction input section 103 and then decoded by the instruction decode section 105 to generate an operand and control signals. The instruction division control section 109 generates a division control signal based on the control signals and an operand selection section 107 generates an operand having a desired bit width by using the operand from the instruction decode section 105 based on the division control signal. An arithmetic section 111 divides the operand into a desired bit width parts based on the division control signal and performs arithmetic operation. A memory access control section 115 receives calculated address and transfers this calculated address and the division control signal to a memory. The memory access control section 115 receives data from the memory and transfers the data into the arithmetic result store section 113.

Abstract: A microprocessor incorporating a cache memory with a selective purge operation includes a control register for storing control information including page information for controlling a purge operation for purging a predetermined page divided in the cache memory, a setting portion for transferring the control information to the control register; a comparator for comparing a target page address indicated by the control information stored in the control register with an address stored in the cache memory; and an issue portion for providing a purge command to indicate the start of execution of the purge operation to the comparator based on the control information stored in the control register only when the target page address agrees with an address in the cache memory.

Abstract: A microprocessor consists of an arithmetic section for executing arithmetic processing with a program, a holding circuit for holding a designated address AD1 at which a piece of data DA1 is stored in an external memory, and a signal generating circuit for generating a signal when the designated address AD1 transmitted from the arithmetic section to the external memory is detected.
