  • Patent number: 11974432
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a semiconductor storage device includes a plurality of electrode films on a substrate, spaced from one another in a first direction. A charge storage film is provided on a side face the electrode films via a first insulating film. A semiconductor film is provided on a side face of the charge storage film via a second insulating film. The charge storage film includes a plurality of insulator regions contacting the first insulating film, a plurality of semiconductor or conductor regions provided between the insulator regions and another insulator region.

  • Patent number: 6839676
    Abstract: In audio-decoder apparatus, a circuit substrate common to a 2-channel model and a 5.1-channel model, on which a decoder and a D/A converter with built-in PLL are installed, and which has installing portions and for enabling installation of D/A converters without built-in PLL. The line connection modes of signal lines connecting the output terminal of the decoder to the input terminals of each D/A converter can be changed by a switching apparatus, corresponding to the channel model, thus it becomes possible to realize D/A converters without built-in PLL having better audio performance under a line connection mode desired for an improved audio performance. Therefore, a good audio performance can be secured, while a common circuit substrate can be used for a variety of channel models, which is advantageous in view of fabrication cost.

  • Publication number: 20010024169
    Abstract: In audio-decoder apparatus, a circuit substrate 12 common to a 2-channel model and a 5.1-channel model, on which a decoder 3 and a D/A converter 4 with built-in PLL are installed, and which has installing portions 5a and 6a for enabling installation of D/A converters without built-in PLL. The line connection modes of signal lines connecting the output terminal of the decoder 3 to the input terminals of each D/A converter can be changed by a switching apparatus 13, corresponding to the channel model, thus it becomes possible to realize D/A converters without built-in PLL having better audio performance under a line connection mode desired for an improved audio performance. Therefore, a good audio performance can be secured, while a common circuit substrate can be used for a variety of channel models, which is advantageous in view of fabrication cost.
