  • Publication number: 20150355846
    Abstract: When DRAMs that are high-speed memories and flash memories that are lower in speed but can be larger in capacity than the DRAM are to be mounted on a DIMM, what matters in maximizing CPU memory bus throughput is the arrangement of the mounted components. The present disclosure provides a memory module (DIMM) that includes memory controllers arranged on the module surface closer to a socket terminal and DRAMs serving as high-speed memories arranged on the back surface. Nonvolatile memories as large-capacity memories are arranged on the side farther from the socket terminal.

  • Publication number: 20150347032
    Abstract: In methods connecting a memory module configured from DRAM, which is high-speed memory, and a memory module configured from flash memory which is slower than DRAM but is high-capacity memory, to a CPU memory bus, in the case of sequential reading, the busy rate of the CPU memory bus increases, and performance degradation occurs easily. In the present invention, an information processing device has a CPU, a CPU memory bus, and a primary storage device. The primary storage device has a first memory module and a second memory module. The first memory module has high-speed memory. The second memory module has memory having the same memory interface as that of the high-speed memory, high-capacity memory having a different memory interface from that of the high-speed memory, and a controller that controls same. The first memory module and second memory module are caused to be accessed by the memory interface of the high-speed memory.

  • Patent number: 9126624
    Abstract: The electric steering wheel position adjustment apparatus of the present invention comprises: a non-expandable steering shaft 2b; a non-expandable steering column 5b; a column holder 31 that supports the steering column 5b so as to be able to move in the axial direction; a pair of left and right tilt shafts 33 that support the column holder 31 so as to be able to pivotally move around the center axis thereof; and an expandable intermediate shaft 28 that is connected to the steering shaft 2b by way of a universal joint 27b; and a tilt shafts 33 that are arranged so that the center axis thereof is orthogonal to the center axis of the steering shaft 2b. The center axis OC of the pair of left and right tilt shafts 33 is located in a range between the position OF of the center of displacement of the front-end section and the position OB of the center of displacement of the rear-end section of the universal joint 27b.

  • Patent number: 6564302
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a data ownership table which is a list of processor numbers having data on each of lines in a level 2 cache. When data at an address pointed by a store instruction exists in the level 2 cache, the apparatus references the table to selectively issue an invalidation request only to a processor in which data at the address exists, but does not issue the request to a processor in which the data does not exist. The path busy ratio can be reduced and the data coherency among processors and a system controller can be maintained with a small amount of logics. When a system controller is divided into a plurality of interleaves operating independently of one another and respectively issuing an invalidation request, the requests issued from the interleaves are put into a queue, and requests having different destination processor numbers are simultaneously issued.
