Abstract: A liquid discharge head includes a liquid discharge substrate that has a discharge-orifice row, pressure generating elements, and pressure chambers. The liquid discharge head discharges a liquid in a block-by-block manner using sequential driving. The discharge-orifice row is disposed so as to incline at an angle ?=Arctan (d1/d2) relative to a direction extending orthogonal to the conveyance direction of the medium, in which d1 (?m) is a disposition spacing of the discharge orifices in the discharge-orifice row in the conveyance direction and d2 (?m) is a disposition spacing of the discharge orifices in the discharge-orifice row in the direction orthogonal to the conveyance direction. A partition wall is formed between adjacent pressure chambers so as to separate the adjacent pressure chambers from each other. The partition wall has a communicating portion that communicates the adjacent pressure chambers with each other.

Abstract: A high-frequency circuit board capable of easily forming a bias line whose resonance frequency is sufficiently separated from operating frequency is provided. On a high-frequency circuit board 100, by electrically connecting a bias line 11 to a high-frequency circuit 10 using blind via holes 106 and 107, it is possible to limit the route that has a possibility of producing resonance only to the bias line connecting the ends 106a and 107a of the blind via holes 106 and 107 to the bias line 11. By adjusting the route length from the end 106a to the end 107a, it is possible to prevent production of resonance in the vicinity of the operating frequency.

Abstract: An interface conversion macro converts a signal compliant with a system interface specification output from a controller to a signal compliant with a memory interface specification, and outputs the same to a memory interface part, and it also converts a signal output from the memory macro to a signal compliant with the system interface specification and outputs the same to the controller. By converting the system interface specification and the memory interface specification to each other by an interface conversion macro, a common memory macro can be mounted on a semiconductor integrated circuit even when the system interface specification differs. Accordingly, when designing a system, the design verification time, evaluation time, and test time of the semiconductor integrated circuit can be reduced. As a result, the design time and design cost of the semiconductor integrated circuit can be reduced.

Abstract: It is intended to provide a semiconductor integrated circuit device and adjustment method of the same semiconductor integrated circuit device, capable of adjusting an analog signal outputted from an incorporated analog signal generating section without outputting it outside as an analog value. An analog signal AOUT is outputted from an analog signal generating section 3 in which an adjustment signal AD is inputted. The analog signal AOUT is inputted to a judgment section 1, in which it is compared and judged with a predetermined value and then a judgment signal JG is outputted. The judgment signal JG acts on a predetermined signal storing section 4 as an internal signal and the adjustment signal AD is fetched into the predetermined signal storing section 4. Further, the judgment signal JG is outputted as digital signal through an external terminal T2 and an external tester device acquires the adjustment signal and stores the acquired adjustment signal in the predetermined signal storing section 4.
