摘要:
A semiconductor circuit for arithmetic operation, which uses a reduced circuit area and provides high-speed processing by restricting nonessentials. The semiconductor circuit comprises an arithmetic circuit (adders 1-3) and delay means (memory 4). The arithmetic circuit includes arithmetic units for operation on input data, and they operate on digits of input data in a period of operation time, and produce results of operation, together with data corresponding to a carry, if any. The output from the arithmetic circuit is delayed by one period of operation time through the delay means.

The invention further reduces a size and cost of a reactor for generating water from oxygen and hydrogen, provides high-purity water in an amount necessary for practical use safely, stably and continuously, and allows a platinum-coated catalyst layer formed on an inner wall of a reactor body to maintain high catalytic activity over a long period of time. Specifically, the reactor comprises a body made of a heat-resistant material and having an inlet and an outlet for water/moisture gas, has a gas-diffusing member provided in an internal space of the body, and has a platinum coating on an internal wall surface of the body. Hydrogen and oxygen fed from the inlet is diffused by the gas-diffusing member and then comes into contact with the platinum coating to enhance reactivity, thereby producing water from hydrogen and oxygen. A temperature of the reactor for generating moisture, wherein hydrogen is reacted with oxygen at a high temperature to generate moisture, is held to be below an ignition temperature of hydrogen or a hydrogen-containing gas so that hydrogen is reacted with oxygen while preventing explosive combustion of hydrogen and oxygen. The platinum-coated catalyst layer on the internal wall of the reactor body is formed by treating the surface of the internal wall of the body, cleaning the treated surface, forming a barrier coating of a nonmetallic material of an oxide or nitride on the wall surface, and forming the platinum coating on the barrier coating.
