Abstract: A semiconductor device includes a gate electrode on a gate insulating film over a semiconductor substrate, a first sidewall insulating film on a side surface of the gate electrode, and source and drain regions, each including a pocket diffusion layer of a first conductivity type, and first and second diffusion layers of a second conductivity type. The pocket diffusion layer is disposed in the semiconductor substrate. The first diffusion layer of a second conductivity type extends over the pocket diffusion layer. The first diffusion layer faces toward the gate electrode through the first sidewall insulating film. The second diffusion layer over the first diffusion layer is higher in impurity concentration than the first diffusion layer. The second diffusion layer is separated by the first diffusion layer from the pocket diffusion layer, and has a side surface which faces toward the first sidewall insulating film through the first diffusion layer.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a first memory cell coupled to a first WL and one of a pair of BLs for information bits, a second memory cell coupled to the first WL and one of a pair of BLs for parity bits, a third memory cell coupled to a second WL and the other of the pair of BLs for information bits, a fourth memory cell coupled to the second WL and the other of the pair of BLs for parity bits, column switches which connect the pair of complementary BLs for parity bits to a pair of data lines for parity bits, and a logic correction circuit connected to one of the pair of data lines for parity bits. The logic correction circuit executes a parity bit rewrite operation.

Abstract: When memory cells enter a data holding mode, a control circuit of a semiconductor memory device reads out a plurality of data from the memory cells to generate and store a check bit for error detection and correction, and performs a refresh operation in a period within an error occurrence allowable range of an error correcting operation performed by an ECC circuit by using the check bit. Before a normal operation mode is restored from the data holding mode, the control circuit performs control such that an error bit of the data is corrected by using the check bit. In an entry/exit period, read and write are performed by a page operation.

Abstract: A receiving circuit for optical communication includes: a differential circuit, one differential input terminal of which is connected to an anode side of a first photodiode and the other differential input terminal of which is connected to an anode side of a second photodiode; a latch circuit that performs latch operation based on output of the differential circuit; and a flip-flop that performs set operation and reset operation based on a latch state of the latch circuit.

Abstract: There is provided a rare-earth permanent magnet optimized to an IPM type motor for a car, capable of improving corrosion resistance, abrasion resistance, and impact resistance. The rare-earth permanent magnet 16 is configured by forming an electroplated Ni coating film 21, of which thickness is 15 ?m or more and 30 ?m or less and of which shape is a columnar crystal structure, on a surface of a R—Fe—B system permanent magnet (R is a rare-earth element) 22. The electroplated Ni coating film 21 has a high hardness region, where the Vickers hardness is 300 or more and 600 or less, and a low hardness region, where the Vickers hardness is 150 or more and 300 or less. The rare-earth permanent magnet 16 is used in a state where the rare-earth permanent magnet 16 is inserted into a slot of a yoke in a rotor of an IPM type motor for a car.

Abstract: An efficient retransmission control method, whereby a wasteful retransmission request and retransmission of a packet are not carried out when packet loss occurs. A receiving unit sends the received retransmission request information to a retransmission determining unit. When receiving the retransmission request information, the retransmission determining unit reads out refresh data time information, packet type information of the packet for which a retransmission request is issued, and the time information thereof from a packet information monitoring unit. The retransmission determining unit makes a determination as to whether or not to issue a retransmission request using the read-out refresh data time information, packet type information of the packet for which a retransmission request is issued, and the time information thereof.

Abstract: When memory cells enter an operation mode which performs only data holding, a control circuit controls the memory cells and an ECC circuit as follows. A plurality of data are read out to generate and store a check bit for error detection and correction. Refreshing is performed in a period within the error occurrence allowable range of an error correcting operation performed by the ECC circuit by using the check bit. Before a normal operation mode is restored from the operation mode which performs only data holding, an error bit of the data is corrected by using the check bit. In an entry/exit period, read/write and an ECC operation are sequentially performed for all the memory cells by a page mode operation. Memory cells connected to a word line which is not accessed by the page mode operation are sequentially activated and refreshed.

Abstract: An input image signal is coded by an encoder to be outputted as a basic code string, and the basic code string is delayed by a code-string delay circuit for a predetermined period of time to be outputted as an additional code string. The basic code string is synthesized with the additional code string by a code-string synthesizer to be outputted as an output code string. Thus, there is provided an image data coding system which can quickly restore data even if the data is lost due to error and in which the increased code amount is less than the cycle refresh and the error correction.
