Abstract: In an optical fiber connector (1), an outer member (2) holds a portion of an optical fiber (4A) remote from its connecting end which is connectable to a connecting end of a counterpart optical fiber. An aligning member (3) is held by the outer member so as to be movable along the optical fiber. The aligning member carries out positioning of the connecting end of the optical fiber. The aligning member is urged by a spring (5) in a direction to project from the outer member. When connecting the optical fiber to the counterpart optical fiber, the aligning member is moved in a direction opposite to the foregoing direction against an urging force applied by the spring so that the connecting end of the optical fiber is projected from the aligning member.

Abstract: In a heat exchanger having a side plate for reinforcing a core portion, after an elastic support member for supporting the core portion is inserted between opposite walls of the side plate, a part of the opposite walls having a slit portion is plastically deformed at a position around the slit to form a protrusion. The protrusion protrudes toward the support member to be engaged with a recess of the elastic support member. Further, the silt is provided to penetrate through each opposite wall without being opened to an outer peripheral end of the side plate. Accordingly, the support member can be readily attached to the side plate, while it can prevent the side plate from being deformed in a brazing.

Abstract: In the guard ring section, four regions, p+ diffusion region, n+ diffusion region, n+ diffusion region, and p+ diffusion region, are formed to surround a hard macro and disposed in the order of this from the inside, and the inside two regions are disposed in an n well, and the outside two regions are disposed in a p well. A potential VSS is applied in the innermost p+ diffusion region and the outermost p+ diffusion region, and a potential VDD is applied in the two n+ diffusion regions disposed between these p+ diffusion regions. As a result, capacitors are formed between the n well and the p+ diffusion region formed in the n well, and between the p well and the n+ diffusion region formed in the p well, and therefore noise from outside is shielded, power source noise is absorbed, and malfunctions of the macro cell are prevented.

Abstract: In a semiconductor memory device composed of a set of SRAM cells connected in common to one another through a word line and a common connection line, a substrate potential generation circuit is connected to the word line to supply the SRAM cells through the common connection line with a substrate potential determined by a selected or a non-selected state of the word line. The substrate potential is equal to a ground potential in the selected state or is put into a negative potential in the non-selected state. The substrate potential is given to each of drive transistors included in each SRAM to reduce a leak current.
