Abstract: A pump with high performance and cleanability includes a casing having a smaller volute and a larger volute; a space between an outer circumference of an impeller and a starting end of the smaller volute being greater than that of the larger volute, generating a circulating flow of self-priming water from the smaller volute to the larger volute; and a diffusing part of the larger volute being formed into an upright, cylindrical self-priming water separating chamber guiding the self-priming water from the smaller volute to flow in for air-water separation. An inner circumference part of the casing is formed concentric with the outer circumference of the impeller with a predetermined space therebetween; defining members are protrusively disposed on the inner circumference part of the casing so as to define the shapes of the two volutes; and the self-priming water separating chamber is made attachable to and detachable from the casing.

Abstract: This invention provides a microscopic bubble generator that can stably/efficiently generate a large amount of microscopic bubbles in liquid in a short time and can be easily cleaned in an assembled state and in a disassembled state, and a gas-liquid dissolving tank that can be suitably used for the apparatus. In the gas-liquid dissolving tank that promotes dissolution of gas mixed with liquid in the liquid, openings that pass the flowing gas-liquid are formed at an upper portion and a lower portion of a container of the tank, a plurality of separation walls that vertically divide a plurality of chambers are disposed in the container, openings that connect upper and lower chambers are formed through the separation walls, the upper ends of the openings of the separation walls extend predetermined distances upward from the separation walls, and the lower ends of the openings of the separation walls extend predetermined distances downward from the separation walls.

Abstract: Before arbitration is performed in an arbitration section, an access from a master is kept in a waiting state until update of a conversion table buffer is performed, and an address conversion section is provided in a subsequent stage of the arbitration section. Without waiting for the completion of buffer update, an access is issued in advance at a time when it is assured that update is completed at the completion of address conversion. Thus, influences of waiting buffer update on another master can be eliminated and access latency can be reduced.

Abstract: The memory access device includes: a plurality of command division sections provided for a plurality of masters; a plurality of inter-master arbitration sections provided for a plurality of banks; and a memory control section. Each of the command division sections divides a command issued by the corresponding master into a plurality of micro-commands when the access region of the command is over two or more banks among the plurality of banks, each of the micro-commands being a command accessing only one of the two or more banks, and gives each of the micro-commands to an inter-master arbitration section corresponding to the bank including the access region of the micro-command. Each of the inter-master arbitration sections arbitrates micro-commands given from the command division sections to select one. The memory control section selects one of a plurality of micro-commands selected by the inter-master arbitration sections to perform memory access.

Abstract: The memory interface includes: a first data latch unit that delays a strobe signal from a memory device, through a first variable delay unit and reads the strobe signal as a first data signal; and a second data latch unit that delays the same strobe signal through the second variable delay unit and reads the strobe signal as a second data signal. The memory interface uses the data read by the first data latch unit in a normal memory access operation, detects a boundary of the delay amount by comparing the data with the data read by the second data latch unit, and reflects the boundary on the delay amount of the first variable delay unit. Thereby, the delay amount can be corrected without suspending the normal memory access operation.

Abstract: In a multi-processor system constituted by a processor such as a CPU and a DSP, in which the processor and the DSP have an external memory and a bus as shared resources and the DSP carries out a process in response to a processing request from the processor, a monitoring step for status of use includes a step of monitoring the status of use of the DSP, and when contention information obtained in the monitoring step for the status of use indicates frequent uses, an altering step for software process appropriately alters a software processing method to be executed, and switches the corresponding process to an equivalent process so that it becomes possible to avoid bus contention, and consequently to prevent a reduction in the processing speed.

Abstract: A bus arbitration section and a resource control section are interposed between a shared resource and a plurality of bus masters. The minimum number of receivable access permissions within a given period is set as bus arbitration information for each of the bus masters. If two or more of the bus masters issue access requests at the same time, the bus arbitration section preferentially gives access permission to a bus master which gained access permission a number of times less than a set value in the bus arbitration information within the given period, out of the two or more access bus masters.

Abstract: Bandwidth information including a plurality of slots each having highest priority order information for arbitrating access conflict, and priority master information for specifying, as a priority master, one or more of a plurality of masters whose latency in accessing a memory serving as a shared resource is desired to be reduced are included as arbitration information. When an arbitration section arbitrates access conflict while switching the slots in the bandwidth information at each of predetermined arbitration timings, if there is an access request from the priority master specified in the priority master information, the arbitration section changes the sequence of the slots in the bandwidth information so as to allow the priority master to access the memory with priority.
