  • Patent number: 10096135
    Abstract: When graphics computations are to be performed to calculate the display data of a figure to be drawn within a frame that is formed of a plurality of lines in accordance with input vector data, the present invention reduces the storage capacity of a RAM to which a work area for storing intermediate data is allocated. When the graphics computations are to be performed, the frame in which the figure is to be displayed is segmented into a plurality of drawing areas for each of the lines. As regards the work area for storing the intermediate data, the same work area is allocated to all the drawing areas. The graphics computations for calculating the intermediate data of the individual drawing areas are sequentially performed by repeatedly using the same work area.

  • Publication number: 20140265735
    Abstract: A piezoelectric vibrating piece includes a vibrator, a framing portion that surrounds the vibrator, a connecting portion that connects the vibrator and the framing portion, an excitation electrode on each of a front surface and a back surface of the vibrator, and a first extraction electrode and a second extraction electrode on the framing portion. The first extraction electrode and the second extraction electrode are electrically connected to the respective excitation electrodes. The piezoelectric vibrating piece includes a front surface and a back surface. A stepped portion is disposed on at least one of the front surface and the back surface of the piezoelectric vibrating piece. In a case where one of the first extraction electrode and the second extraction electrode is disposed across the stepped portion, another one of the first extraction electrode and the second extraction electrode is disposed to avoid crossing over the stepped portion.
