Abstract: A plurality of information memory cells and a single reference memory cell are coupled to a single word line. The reference memory cell stores reference information equivalent to a reference potential to information readout. Pieces of information, stored in the information memory cells, are fed, over respective bit lines, to first input terminals of sense amplifiers. The reference information, stored in the reference memory cell, is fed, over a bit line, to second input terminals of the sense amplifiers. When the potential of signal charges stored in the information memory cells falls due to leakage current, the potential of a signal charge stored in the reference memory cell correspondingly falls due to leakage current. This prolongs a length of time taken for a difference between these potentials to reach a sense limit, thereby achieving a longer data retention time.

Abstract: Filter has a filter main body, a container, a first counter room, and a second counter room. A counter air is introduced into the first counter room through the counter air discharge valve, and fine particles trapped in the filter main body are removed and transported to the second counter room. Then, the removed fine particles are further transported to a process portion isolated from an exhaust gas passage, and the fine particles are fired in the process portion. Since the process portion is isolated from the exhaust gas passage, the fine particles in the process portion are not returned to the filter main body. Moreover, since the fine particles are transported by the counter air only to the second counter room, it is possible to reduce an amount of the counter air.

Abstract: A memory having a data processing function is connected with a memory network such as a memory bus. A memory controller writes data to be processed in a predetermined area in the memory having the data processing function. The memory having the data processing function processes the written data and stores resultant processed data. Thereafter, the memory controller reads the stored resultant processed data. Accordingly, work data (intermediate data obtained during the processing) is not transferred to the memory controller through the memory bus but is processed within the memory having the data processing function. As a result, the data processing ability can be improved. In the memory having the data processing function, a processing specification for the processing to be executed is written immediately before executing the processing. Accordingly, no work data is transferred through the memory bus between a CPU and the memory serving as a work area for the processing.

The output of each of the constant-voltage generators is feedbacked to the other constant-voltage generator as its input. Two differential amplifiers and two output drivers output, as an internal reduced voltage Vint, the higher one of Vref and Vrefbi which are outputted from the reference voltage generator.
