  • Patent number: 5335204
    Abstract: Means for changing-over address signals is provided in an address input portion, and the order of the signals to be input to an address decoder is changed according to external control signals. Alternatively, a reading output circuit is provided which reads data in bit unit different from that of the writing input circuit. Thus, data can be read and written even when the number of bits of data differs between in case of accessing a built-in memory of an LSI inside the LSI and in case of accessing it from outside the LSI.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 28, 1993
    Date of Patent: August 2, 1994
    Assignees: Hitachi., Ltd., Hitachi VLSI Engineering Corp.

  • Patent number: 4989185
    Abstract: A memory area within a semiconductor integrated circuit device is accessible through an address changeover circuit. External control signals instruct the memory device as to the addressing mode desired. Address signals originating externally are provided directly to the IC's address decoder circuits, while addresses originating internal to the IC are first shifted one or two bits to modify the address by a power of 2, then provided to the address decoder circuits. In this way, data of bit length N may be written to a memory array of bit length M, where M>N.

  • Patent number: 4596129
    Abstract: An apparatus, for forming fins for heat exchangers, comprising a pair of rolls which are provided, on the outer peripheral surfaces thereof, with grooves of a pattern corresponding to the shape of the fins to be formed therebetween and which form them by pressing the fins from opposite sides thereof with the aid of the synchronous rotation of the rolls to give smooth curved outer surfaces thereon, characterized in that the grooves on the rolls are formed so that each groove may be composed of a bottom portion having a substantially arcuate shape and a tapered portion converging from the outer peripheral surface toward the bottom portion of the roll as viewed in section, and at least one roll of the pair of rolls is provided with an urging means for pressing the aforesaid roll against the other roll at a constant pressure.
