Abstract: In its several embodiments, this invention discloses novel processes to prepare the compounds of formula II and formula IV: 1

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention discloses a process to directly prepare an unequal ratio of specific, preferred rotamer or rotameric pair of an acid salt from a basic compound, by creative choice of a solvent medium. The process is particularly useful in preparing desired rotamers of pharmaceutically useful salts.

Abstract: A programmable logic array integrated circuit has a number of programmable logic modules which are grouped together in a plurality of logic array blocks (“LABs”). The LABs are arranged on the circuit in a two dimensional array. A conductor network is provided for interconnecting any logic module with any other logic module. In addition, adjacent or nearby logic modules are connectable to one another for such special purposes as providing a carry chain between logic modules and/or for connecting two or more modules together to provide more complex logic functions without having to make use of the general interconnection network. Another network of so-called fast or universal conductors is provided for distributing widely used logic signals such as clock and clear signals throughout the circuit. Multiplexers can be used in various ways to reduce the number of programmable interconnections required between signal conductors.

Abstract: A programmable logic array integrated circuit device has logic regions grouped in blocks, which are in turn grouped in super-blocks. The super-blocks are disposed on the device in a two-dimensional array of intersecting rows and columns. Global conductors are associated with each row and column. Super-block feeding conductors associated with each super-block feed signals from the global conductors to any logic region in the super-block. Local feedback conductors feed back logic region output signals to all logic regions in a block. The super-block feeding conductors are also used to interconnect the logic regions in a super-block so that the global conductors do not have to be used for that purpose.

Abstract: A programmable logic array device has a plurality of logic regions and conductors for conveying signals between the logic regions. Conductors of several different lengths are provided so that most connections between logic regions can be made using conductors which are close to the length required and not wastefully much longer than that length.

Abstract: A programmable logic array integrated circuit device has a relatively large block of programmable memory cells in addition to the usual programmable logic modules and the usual programmable interconnection conductor network. In order to simplify the circuitry associated with the large block, and especially the circuitry for addressing that block during programming and/or verification of the device, the address decoder that is normally used to address the block during use of the device to perform logic is also used during programming and/or verification. During programming and/or verification a counter or other similar coded address signal generating circuitry is used to supply address information to the decoder.
