  • Patent number: 7482721
    Abstract: The present invention aims to alleviate a power loss possibly occurring when a power is transmitted from a driving side to a driven side using attraction/repulsion of magnets and to amplify (improve a joggle mechanism effect) an output. A pair of inner magnets coupled to a driven side is located between a pair of outer magnets coupled to a driving side so as to face the pair of outer magnets 1 in non-contact relationship with the outer magnets 1. Rotation of the outer magnets 1 coupled to the driving side causes the inner magnet 2 coupled to the driven side to reciprocate. Each of the magnets 1 and 2 has a rod-like shape and the magnets 1 coupled to the driving side are respectively rotated around longitudinal centers of the respective rode shaped magnets 1.

  • Patent number: 6148370
    Abstract: In a control register, tag address information which points at RAM areas defined in a data array is stored. A comparator compares a tag address of a cache access address with the tag address information stored in the control register and generates an access control signal which indicates that the RAM area defined in the data array of the cache memory is accessed according to the cache access address and which controls access to data in the RAM areas. As a result, RAM areas can be defined in arbitrary areas of the cache memory with treating the entry as a unit.

  • Patent number: 5430391
    Abstract: There is disclosed a data input/output control circuit comprising: an input/output circuit for carrying out input of data from the exterior or output of data thereto; and an output circuit such that when the input/output circuit carries out output of data, it delivers, to the input/output circuit, data generated in the exterior and transferred by way of a signal line, while when the input/output circuit carries out input of data, it allows the node between the input/output circuit and the signal line to be placed in high impedance state. In this control circuit, the output circuit includes a switching element and a discharge element connected in series between the signal line and the input/output circuit. The switching element is operative in such a manner that when the input/output circuit carries out output of data, it is closed, while when the input/output circuit carries out input of data, it is opened.

  • Patent number: 5241510
    Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit comprises a plurality of memory blocks each provided with a set of word lines shared by the other memory blocks so that the memory blocks may be accessed separately by using different address signals entered on a time division basis. The integrated circuit also comprises one or more than one decoders for choosing a word line from an end to allow access to any of the plurality of memory blocks and a word line latch circuit inserted into the set of word lines between a pair of memory blocks. With such an arrangement, the number of decoders, word lines, bit lines, memory cells and sense amplifiers as well as the overall size of the integrated circuit can be minimized. Besides, the access time to a certain memory block that constitutes a critical factor to determine the performance the entire integrated circuit can be curtailed so that it may be accessed in a very short period of time and consequently the performance of the circuit may be remarkably improved.
