  • Patent number: 9412432
    Abstract: A semiconductor storage device is provided with a memory cell array comprising a plurality of word lines including word lines that are adjacent to one another; and a TRR address conversion unit that selects the word line in response to the input of an address signal indicating a first value while in a first operation mode and selects the word line in response to the input of an address signal indicating a first value while in a target row refresh mode. Due to the fact that address conversion is performed on the semiconductor storage device side in the present invention, it is sufficient for a control device to output, for example, the address of a word line having a high access count to the semiconductor storage device during a target row refresh operation. As a result, control of the target row refresh operation on the control device side is facilitated.

  • Patent number: 9238272
    Abstract: TASK An inexpensive drill with high processing accuracy is provided. MEANS FOR SOLVING THE PROBLEM A chisel edge 11 of a tip 12 is removed, and a pyramid 1 is formed in that part, in which an inclination angle ?1 of each edge 4 extending from an apex P relative to a center line of the drill CL is formed to be larger than an angle ?2 that is one-half of a drill tip angle ?0, and so chisel steps are resolved and stable cutting becomes possible, thereby improving hole accuracy. Also, it is possible to form the pyramid 1 by grinding a tip of an existing drill by a grinder, so that a drill can be realized at a low cost.
