  • Publication number: 20190393146
    Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a first contact receiving a first voltage, a second contact receiving a second voltage, one or more comparing elements comparing the first and second voltages, and one or more setting elements setting one or more parameters of the device in response to a comparison of the first and second voltages. When the first voltage is greater than the second voltage the setting element selects the first voltage as a high voltage, the second voltage as a low voltage, and sets a mode signal to a first value. When the second voltage is greater than the first voltage the setting element selects the first voltage as the low voltage, the second voltage as the high voltage, and sets the mode signal to a second value. The first and second values alter a condition of an electronic component coupled with the device between a first and second state.

  • Publication number: 20070203597
    Abstract: A separation unit accepts a digital video and audio signal sent from outside in units of packets and separates the signal into video data and audio data. The audio data separated by this separation unit is written for each packet in an audio data buffer, from which the written audio data is consecutively read out. Moreover, a available capacity determination unit determines a available capacity in the audio data buffer. Based on a result of the determination by this available capacity determination unit, an oscillation frequency of a frequency variable oscillator and the reading at said audio data buffer are controlled.
