Abstract: Provided is a display control device including: a voice receiver configured to receive a voice utterance from a user; a communication unit configured to receive information for the voice utterance from a server via a network; and a controller configured to select an item corresponding to the voice utterance on the basis of the information that has been received, and configured to control an action in response to the item that has been selected, in which the item includes a first item in an inside of a display screen and a second item that becomes displayable by scrolling, and the controller selects either the first item or the second item on the basis of the information that has been received. The present technology is applicable to, for example, a television receiver.

Abstract: A training operation may be performed by a memory controller to provide a system clock signal and a data clock signal having a desired temporal (e.g., phase) relationship to one another. The system clock and data clock signals may be provided to a memory. In some examples, the memory controller may provide a command to the memory to put the memory in a training mode. Once in the training mode, the memory controller may provide a write command and toggle the data clock signal a number of times. If the memory provides one output, the memory controller may adjust the relationship between the data clock and system clock signals. If the memory provides another output, the memory controller may maintain the relationship between the data clock and system clock signals and exit the training mode.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses related to memory operation with multiple sets of latencies are disclosed. A memory device or system that includes a memory device may be operable with one or several sets of latencies (e.g., read, write, or write recovery latencies), and the memory device or system may apply a set of latencies depending on which features of the memory device are enabled. For example, control circuitry may be configured to enable one or more features during operations on a memory array, and the control circuitry may apply a set of latency values based on a number or type of features that are enabled. The sets of latency values may depend, for example, on whether various control features (e.g., dynamic voltage frequency scaling) are enabled, and a device may operate within certain frequency ranges irrespective of other characteristics (e.g., mode register values) or latencies applied.

Abstract: A clock generator circuit may generate internal data clock signals, such as quadrature phase clock signals, based at least in part, on one clock signal responsive, at least in part, to another clock signal. In some examples, the internal data clock signals may be generated from a system clock signal responsive to a data clock signal. In some examples, the internal data clock signal may be generated by sampling the system clock signal. In some examples, the sampling may be performed responsive to the data clock signal. In some examples, a latch may latch a state of the system clock signal responsive to the data clock signal. The latch may output the internal data clock signal.
