  • Patent number: 10853287
    Abstract: Processing by an information processing system is speeded up. A first semiconductor integrated circuit designates a first address of a memory connected to a second semiconductor integrated circuit that is a data transmission destination, based on first memory map information in which addresses of memories respectively used by the semiconductor integrated circuits are defined, converts the first address to a second address of the memory defined in second memory map information referred to by the data transmission destination, and outputs the second address and transmission data by using a PCIe interface. A switch transfers the second address and the transmission data to the data transmission destination by using PCIe interfaces. The data transmission destination receives the second address and the transmission data by using a PCIe interface and writes the transmission data into the reception buffer region of the memory corresponding to the second address.

  • Publication number: 20200350107
    Abstract: A laminated electronic component includes an element body and a pair of conductors. The element body is formed by laminating a plurality of element-body layers in a first direction. The pair of conductors is formed by laminating a plurality of conductor layers in the first direction. The pair of conductors is provided to the element body in such a way as to be separated from each other in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. At a cross section orthogonal to the first direction, the pair of conductors has an uneven portion and the element body has an uneven portion engaged with the uneven portion of the pair of conductors.
