  • Patent number: 8598944
    Abstract: According to one embodiment, a semiconductor integrated circuit includes a semiconductor integrated circuit a voltage regulator providing a prescribed power-supply voltage, a plurality of delay test circuits, each of the delay test circuits being configured in each of areas where electrical current flows in response to each of operation modes, a test control unit executing a delay test using the delay test circuit under a test mode while decreasing a power-supply voltage in a stepwise fashion, a supply voltage decision unit deciding the power-supply voltage of the operation mode on a basis of the delay test, a memory unit storing the power-supply voltage of each operation mode, a supply voltage configuration unit reading out the power-supply voltage corresponding to the operation mode from the memory unit, and the supply configuration unit arranging the power-supply voltage as an output voltage of the voltage regulator when each of the operation modes starts to execute.

  • Publication number: 20070045962
    Abstract: Provided herein is a card game involving two or more players that is intended to readily increase overall attack power and allows the players to get familiar with the game in a relatively short time and the game to be completed also in a relatively short time. The game is played by using the character (battle) cards on the character (battle) card C16, an additional attack power indicator 27 is provided in addition to an attack power indicator 25. Also, on the playing face of the effect indication card is provided an indicator for additional attack power. During his or her turn, the player pays cost by turning the bomb (cost payment) card B. The player draws one card C16 from his or her deck and places it face up on the play field. Then, the player uses the additional attack power of the card C16 to deliver attack on the opposing player's character card C56 which the player has selected as a target, and inflicts damage on that target.

  • Publication number: 20060202423
    Abstract: Provided herein is a battle card game in which players can concentrate on the progress of a game. A combination card set comprising four cards CC1-CC4 is included in a plurality of cards forming a deck. Each of the cards CC1-CC4 has an image indication field 53 and a layout map 55. Each of the image indication fields 53 shows a divided conceptual image that will form a complete conceptual image when the four cards are deployed in a predetermined layout. Each of the layout maps 55 shows a predetermined layout indicating which card should be placed where.

  • Patent number: 6626434
    Abstract: A baseball game which can be advanced while suppressing the number of kinds of cards and using cards evenly. In the case where a player card is disposed on a card disposition area of a batting side, a sum total value of batting force indicated by a batting force indication portion of a batter card and batting force indicated by a batting force indication portion of the player card is derived. Where a player card is disposed on a card disposition area of a fielding side, a sum total value of fielding force indicated by a fielding force indication portion of a pitcher card and fielding force indicated by a fielding force indication portion of the player card is derived. Subsequently, a game is advanced according to a game advance content indicated in a batting table of the batter card, for each of values obtained by a comparison, for example a difference, between a sum total value of the fielding side and a sum total value of the batting side.

  • Publication number: 20020020966
    Abstract: There is provided a baseball game which can be advanced while suppressing the number of kinds in cards to the utmost and using cards evenly. In the case where a player card is disposed on a card disposition area of a batting side, a sum total value of batting force indicated by a batting force indication portion of a butter card and batting force indicated by a batting force indication portion of the player card is derived. On the other hand, in a case where a player card is disposed on a card disposition area of a fielding side, a sum total value of fielding force indicated by a fielding force indication portion of a pitcher card and fielding force indicated by a fielding force indication portion of the player card is derived. Subsequently, a game is advanced according to a game advance content indicated in a batting table of the butter card, for each of subtraction result values obtained by subtracting a sum total value of the fielding side from a sum total value of the batting side.
