  • Patent number: 8105524
    Abstract: First, a horizontal nozzle is inserted between an upper mold section and a lower mold section in a horizontally extending state. Then, liquid resin is horizontally discharged from a discharge port of the horizontal nozzle. Thus, the liquid resin is supplied into a cavity. Thereafter the upper mold section and the lower mold section are closed. Consequently, an electronic component mounted on a substrate is dipped in the liquid resin stored in the cavity. Therefore, the electronic component is resin-sealed on the substrate by compression molding.

  • Patent number: 8102016
    Abstract: In a light detector that is a semiconductor integrated circuit, a wiring structure is disposed on a semiconductor substrate along a periphery of a rectangular region that corresponds to a light receiver, and an interlayer insulating film composed of an SOG film is layered over the wiring structure. In this structure, the interlayer insulating film is thicker at a corner than at a center part of the light receiver. In order to increase efficiency of the incidence of light on the light receiver, the planar shape of the open part is formed so that the corners of the rectangle that surrounds the wiring structure are removed when the interlayer insulating film is etched and the open part is formed (i.e., yielding an octagonal shape).

  • Patent number: 8103230
    Abstract: While sequentially changing the selected channel, a digital broadcast judgment part collects level value VW of a signal extracted on a wide band, a bandwidth suitable for reproduction of an analog broadcast, reported from a reproduction processing unit as the level detection result, and a signal level value VN extracted on a narrow bandwidth of about ?F for which, in an IBOC system, it is likely that neither a digital nor analog broadcast component is present. This digital broadcast judgment part searches for a channel upon which hybrid broadcasting performed by sequentially judging, for three successive channels, whether the first and second adjacent channel conditions, and a central channel condition are satisfied, only on the basis of the signal level values VW and VN. Accordingly, when receiving a radio broadcast according to the IBOC system, it is possible to decide promptly whether or not a digital broadcast is included therein.

  • Patent number: 8082398
    Abstract: There is a need for providing a data processor capable of easily prefetching data from a wide range. A central processing unit is capable of performing a specified instruction that adds an offset to a value of a register to generate an effective address for data. This register can be assigned an intended value in accordance with execution of an instruction. A buffer maintains part of instruction streams and data streams stored in memory. The buffer includes cache memories for storing the instruction stream and the data stream. From the memory, the buffer prefetches a data stream containing data corresponding to an effective address designated by the specified instruction stored in the cache memory. A data prefetch operation is easy because a data stream is prefetched by finding the specified instruction from the fetched instruction stream. Data can be prefetched from a wider range than the use of a PC-relative load instruction.

  • Publication number: 20110238883
    Abstract: An information processing device is provided, in which a bit operation is performed without degradation in performance of a bus. An information processing device includes a CPU which fetches and executes an instruction, and a peripheral module which includes internally a register rewritable by the CPU, and is coupled to the CPU via a bus. The CPU has a function of issuing a bus command for commanding a bitwise write operation to the register comprised in the peripheral module, in order to execute a bit operation command fetched. When the bus command is issued, the peripheral module executes a bitwise write operation for the register. Since the CPU does not need to lock the bus after the bus command is issued, a bit operation can be performed without degradation in performance of the bus.

  • Publication number: 20110157638
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus which makes it possible to display respective pieces of information both on operation screens of an image processing apparatus and the information processing apparatus in a mutually-related manner. A print control apparatus as the information processing apparatus is connected to an MFP via a local network and to a web server via a LAN. The print control apparatus analyzes a first operation screen request from the MFP to thereby determine whether or not it is required to update an operation screen displayed on the print control apparatus. If it is required to update the operation screen, the print control apparatus generates a second operation screen request for requesting an operation screen to be displayed thereon, and transmits the second operation screen request. Further, the print control apparatus transfers the first operation screen request to the web server.

  • Patent number: 7943054
    Abstract: Cracks are generated in a resist film part used to form an opening part in a photoreceptor part, whereby etching is performed as far as the inter-layer insulating film in unintended portions. In order to prevent this, the resist pattern used as an etching mask is formed in a shape that disperses the stress. The stress is generated because the resist is hardened by post baking after having been exposed and developed. In order to disperse the stress, the opening part of the resist pattern is formed in a planar shape that has no corners.

  • Patent number: 7925997
    Abstract: It is possible to provide a user with an operation screen having settings with which the user is familiar, such as an operation screen that has been used in the past for this external input/output device. When a external input/output device is connected to a information processing apparatus, specific information for specifying the device is acquired. Then, from a storage device that associates and stores an operation screen for processing an image that has been handled by the external device and the specific information, a corresponding operation screen is selected based upon the specific information that has been acquired. By displaying the selected operation screen on a touch-sensitive panel display, various setting operations can be performed with regard to an image that has been input from the external input/output device.

  • Patent number: 7899643
    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device which consumes less power and enables real-time processing. The semiconductor integrated circuit device includes thermal sensors which detect temperature and determine whether the detection result exceeds reference values and output the result, and a control block capable of controlling the operations of arithmetic blocks based on the output signals of the thermal sensors. The control block returns to an operation state from a suspended state with an interrupt signal based on the output signals of the thermal sensors and determines the operation conditions of the arithmetic blocks to ensure that the temperature conditions of the arithmetic blocks are satisfied. Thereby, power consumption is reduced and real-time processing efficiency is improved.
