Abstract: In a non-volatile memory circuit, performance is improved by converting data between a serial format, for transfer on and off of the memory circuit, and a parallel format, for transfer to and from the memory latches used for read and writing data into the memory array of the memory circuit. The memory array is split into M+N divisions, but transferred with a degree of parallelism of M, allowing M words of data to be transferred in parallel at a fixed transfer rate while allowing for up to N bad columns in a transfer. In the write path, a column skipping mechanism is used when converting words of write data into a parallel format. In the read path, a set of (M+N) to 1 multiplexers is used to align the word of read data so that read data can be transferred at a fixed rate and without any added latency.

Abstract: Recyclable light proof and moisture proof papers with excellent moisture proofness and light proofness and especially with excellent repulpability during waste paper recovery are provided, which have a single repulpable and recyclable light proof and moisture proof layer on at least one side of a base paper using neither aluminium foil nor an aluminium deposited film, wherein said light proof and moisture proof layer contains 3-70 parts by weight (solids) of a light proof agent and 1-10 parts by weight (solids) of a wax per 100 parts by weight (solids) of a synthetic resin having a gel fraction of 90% or more.
