摘要:
A semiconductor memory encompasses a memory cell array having a spare memory cell array; a holding circuit having banks of fuses, configured to read and hold fuse information; a decision circuit configured to determine which address of memory cell is to be replaced with which spare memory cell based on the fuse information from the holding circuit; and a holding-controller configured to control reading and holding of the fuse information in the holding circuit by receiving a power supply completion signal and a refresh signal. The holding circuit rereads the fuse information when the reread signal is generated, after the holding circuit reads once the fuse information by receiving the power supplying completion signal.

A clock non-synchronous type circuit performs data read operation on the basis of a read control signal. After a lapse of a predetermined delay time, read data is read out from the clock non-synchronous type circuit. The read data is latched in selected one of N latch circuits. A latch circuit is selected on the basis of a control signal instead of a clock signal. The control signal represents that read data is output from the clock non-synchronous type circuit, and hence a latch circuit is always selected after read data is output.

A process for continuously casting thin slabs, which comprises the steps of pouring a molten metal from a large-sized tundish through a sliding nozzle into a small-sized tundish, over-flowing the molten metal from the small-sized tundish to pour the molten metal into a continuous casting machine of the twin-belt type is disclosed. According to the process, a pouring rate into the small-sized tundish is calculated prior to overflow on the basis of a change in weight of the small-sized tundish and the degree of opening of the sliding nozzle is adjusted so as to make the calculated pouring rate come close to the target pouring rate into the small-sized tundish or into the casting machine.

摘要:
A reference voltage generation circuit generates a reference voltage. An internal voltage generation circuit generates an internal voltage on the basis of the reference voltage generated by the reference voltage generation circuit. A first trimming circuit trims the internal voltage. During trimming of the internal voltage, the first trimming circuit trims an externally supplied first target voltage in accordance with first trimming data. The first trimming circuit ends the trimming when the first target voltage meets a given condition for the reference voltage.
