  • Patent number: 7283405
    Abstract: A semiconductor memory device able to read out data at a high speed continuously, provided with, corresponding to a plurality of banks, current address registers for holding addresses for reading data of cell arrays, reserved address registers able to receive in advance and hold reserved addresses for next read operations from the outside, and bank control circuits for making the current address registers hold reserved addresses held in the reserved address registers, making the data be read out, and making the data latch circuits hold the data when the data read out from the cell arrays of the banks by addresses held in the current address registers and held in the data latch circuits become able to be transferred to the outside, and a signal processing system relating to the same.

  • Patent number: 4584136
    Abstract: An Estracyt compound having a carcinostatic bound thereto is obtained by reacting an Estracyt compound with a carcinostatic having one or more radicals selected from among COOH, Cl, NH.sub.2 and OH, either directly or after reaction with an amine to replace one or both Cl groups in the nitrogen mustard portion in the Estracyt compound with a NH.sub.2 group, in the presence or absence of a catalyst. The resulting compound is more effective in cancer control than the Estracyt compound associated substance.
