  • Patent number: 8243500
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory has a short transistor coupling complementary storage nodes of a latch circuit of a memory cell. A transfer transistor and the short transistor have a diffusion layer in common coupled to one of the storage nodes. The short transistor and a driver transistor have a diffusion layer in common coupled to the other storage node. The transfer transistor, the short transistor, and the driver transistor are continuously disposed via the diffusion layers in common, and thereby, variation of characteristics of the transfer transistor can be prevented. Accordingly, it may be possible to prevent that current supplying ability of the transfer transistor changes depending on a layout in the memory cell, and that an operation margin of the memory cell deteriorates.

    Abstract: The DC-DC converter includes a control unit that controls a current stored in an inductance and an output voltage output from an output terminal electrically couplable to the inductance. The control unit assigns a first period and a second period to a given period when the output voltage is lower than a given value in response to a load electrically couplable to the output terminal. The first period is where a current is stored in the inductance in response to an input voltage and a reference voltage, and the second period is where the current stored in the inductance is supplied to the output terminal in response to the input voltage and the output voltage.
