Abstract: A digital data recording/reproducing method includes the steps of: interleaving data on a PI code for each PI code of a 208-row ECC block; and converting a short burst error into random errors by dispersing errors on the PI codes. Moreover, the digital data recording/reproducing method increases correction capability against several bytes to several tens bytes of errors generated at random without changing burst error correction length by performing this processing for respective PI codes by using interleave rules that are different as much as possible from one another.

Abstract: If a large minimum data unit for recorded data is used to record a small data amount of management information, the recording time is long, and furthermore when a WO (write once) is used as the recording medium, the number of recording operations is restricted. To solve the above problems, the present invention records data in a management area in units smaller than ordinary units for recorded data to suitably record information in a limited management area and thereby efficiently use the user data area. At that time, the present invention simplifies interleave processing usually applied to ordinary recorded data, and performs the simplified interleave processing on a data structure (for data of small size) of the present invention so as to ensure the signal processing compatibility between the ordinary data and data having the data structure according to the present invention.

Abstract: The DMA controller includes a peripheral device read unit to read states of peripheral devices, a state comparator, a transfer unit, a register, and a peripheral device write unit to write data in the peripheral devices according to the contents in the register when the DMA transfer is executed, an interrupt select unit selects one of plural interrupt signals to determine whether the peripheral device read unit, the state comparator and the transfer unit are at a timing to execute operations. Based on these operations the state comparator determines whether to start the DMA transfer, and the transfer unit executes data transfer between the peripheral devices.

Abstract: There is a need for providing a communication data processor easily adaptable to network configurations required for industrial Ethernet. The apparatus successively analyzes received packets. The apparatus uses a register to determine whether or not to transmit the received packet as transmission data to another port. Rewritable memory saves a program code that provides control for analyzing a reception packet and generating a transmission packet. The apparatus is capable of complying with various communication protocols by changing the program code.

Abstract: A peripheral circuit with a host load adjusting function which is capable of readily carrying out control so that the amounts of data processed by the peripheral circuit and a host CPU are balanced by limiting interrupts made by the peripheral circuit, usage of a memory bus bandwidth, and a processing throughput of data. A typical embodiment of the present invention has an adjustment limitation setting unit setting a minimum value of an interval of interrupt requests generated by the peripheral circuit with the host load adjusting function, and a cycle counter counting generation timing of the interrupt requests, and compares a value of the cycle counter with the interval set in the adjustment limitation setting unit, thereby suppressing the interrupt requests generated at an interval shorter than the set interval.
