  • Patent number: 10781861
    Abstract: A protective cover includes: a synthetic resin disc part having formed therein a separation wall which is thinner than other parts of the disc part and separates a magnetic encoder and a magnetic sensor from each other; and a synthetic resin sensor holder part protruding inward from the disc part. A gate mark caused by the injection molding is present n an outer peripheral surface of the disc part or an outer peripheral surface of a cylindrical part continuous with the disc part, in the radially outer side of the separation wall. Since the gate is at the radially outer side, of the separation wall, which is near the separation wall, no charging end weld is generated on the separation wall when a molten synthetic resin material is injected from the gate into the cavity of the injection mold die and solidified in an injection molding step.

  • Patent number: 10764455
    Abstract: A memory control method uses a memory including a plurality of bank groups each having a plurality of banks. The memory control method includes masking write control data and read control data based on an inside-bank group constraint period that is a command to command interval during which a processing is restricted inside an identical bank group and an inter-bank group constraint period that is a command to command interval during which a processing is restricted inside different bank groups, and storing an unmasked command in an arbitration queue. An arbitration raises a priority order of control data requesting a processing on the bank group that has been accessed last among the plurality of bank groups.

  • Patent number: 10614001
    Abstract: A memory control method includes: attaching transfer IDs to generate write control data and attaching transfer IDs to generate read control data for respective predetermined areas; executing an arbitration that determines a priority order of processing taking the write control data and the read control data that are stored in an arbitration queue as targets; and adding a burst number of a Read command or a Write command to complete a transaction in response to an execution of an Activate command to execute the transaction while decrementing a burst number in response to an execution of the Read command or the Write command, so as to update a remaining burst number as a remaining number of bursts. The arbitration raises a priority order of the Activate command to execute a transaction having a large burst number when the remaining burst number is less than a preliminarily set threshold.

  • Patent number: 10579318
    Abstract: A memory control method includes: dividing write data for respective predetermined areas in a memory and attaching transfer IDs to generate write control data for the respective predetermined areas, and dividing read request data set for the respective predetermined areas and attaching transfer IDs to generate read control data for the respective predetermined areas; storing the write control data and the read control data in an arbitration queue; and detecting overlap access request data as a write request data set or a read request data set. The overlap access request data requests an access to an address that is at least partially overlapping an address of received write request data set or read request data set. The arbitration is executed such that the received write request data set or read request data set is processed after the overlap access request data is processed.
