A cut-off circuit cuts off supply of a power supply voltage from a voltage supply circuit to a non-volatile memory block. A discharge circuit discharges an electric charge accumulated in stability capacitance. In a data retention test of the memory block, a self test circuit instructs the cut-off circuit to start operation after writing predetermined data into the memory block, and instructs the cut-off circuit to stop the operation to check retention of the predetermined data in the memory block in a predetermined time after the instruction to the cut-off circuit to start the operation. Further, in the data retention test of the memory block, the self test circuit instructs the discharge circuit to start operation along with the instruction to the cut-off circuit to start the operation, and instructs the discharge circuit to stop the operation along with the instruction to the cut-off circuit to stop the operation.

A gradient pump apparatus which is capable of continuously and precisely feeding, to a chromatograph, eluents at intervals of certain time and at a constant flow rate in units of nano-liter per minute while the composition of two or more eluent components is changed. The gradient pump apparatus includes a 10-port valve for switching an eluent mixing pipe, in which a feed pressure of eluents changes with time, to be connected to a first loop which is supplied with another eluent from an isocratic pump that should function to hold an eluent feed pressure constant, and which is connected to an analytic section, or to a second loop through which the eluents are drained. A controller computes a difference between a value of the pressure in the eluent mixing pipe and a value of the eluent feed pressure applied from the isocratic pump when the eluent mixing pipe is connected to the second loop. At the time when the eluent mixing pipe is connected to the first loop with shift of the 10-port valve, the feed speed of the isocratic pump is determined based on the above pressure difference. The isocratic pump is controlled in sync with the valve shift so that the determined feed speed of the isocratic pump is obtained.

A data processor capable of executing sequential processing efficiently while retaining the advantages of a prior art data-driven processor. The data processor includes: an instruction fetch unit which fetches a data-driven instruction or a control-driven instruction from an instruction memory based on an input packet or a program counter; an instruction decode unit which decodes the issued instruction and, in the case of the control-driven instruction, thereafter accesses a register and performs register renaming if a data hazard is detected; a firing control unit which stores the decoded instruction in a matching memory to wait therein, and which selects one of the ready-to-fire instructions and fires the selected instruction; an execution unit which performs an operation specified by the fired instruction and, in the case of the data-driven instruction, transfers an operation result to the instruction fetch unit, or in the case of the control-driven instruction, forwards the operation result to the firing control unit; and a write back unit which writes the operation result to a register.

A structure and manufacturing process of a low dielectric constant interlayer insulating film used between wiring layers and semiconductor devices using such film are disclosed. The insulating film which can withstand in an actual process comprises an amorphous carbon fluoride film. A diamond like carbon film and a silicon excess layer are disposed on both sides of the amorphous carbon fluoride film to be inserted between the wiring layers, whereby adhesion to wiring and another insulating film contacting it is significantly enhanced. In addition, a silicon based insulating film is disposed and flattened on a multilayer film containing an amorphous carbon fluoride film buried with a wiring layer, and is used as a hard mask for anisotropically etching the diamond like carbon film and the amorphous carbon fluoride film with oxygen plasma to form a via hole.

In producing a multilevel interconnection structure, an insulator film is placed on and bonded to interconnecting lines laid on an insulating layer on a semiconductor substrate such that all the spacings between the interconnecting lines are left as vacant spaces. For example, the insulator film is a polyimide film or a silicon oxide film. The vacant spaces serve the purpose of reducing capacitance between adjacent interconnecting lines. After forming contact holes in the insulator film and filling the contact holes with a metal, upper-level interconnecting lines are laid on the insulator film.

A photodetecting device 1 includes a photodiode PD and an integrating circuit 11. The integrating circuit 11 includes an amplifier circuit 20, a capacitive element C2, and a second switch SW2. The amplifier circuit 20 has a driving section including a PMOS transistor T1 and an NMOS transistor T2, the respective drain terminals thereof being connected to each other. A first switch SW1 comprising a PMOS transistor T10 is opened or closed according to the level of a first reset signal Reset1 input to the gate terminal. When the first reset signal Reset1 is at a low level, the first switch SW1 is closed to apply a power supply potential VDD to the gate terminal of the PMOS transistor T1, thereby turning off the PMOS transistor T1. Thus, an amplifier circuit, an integrating circuit and a photodetecting device capable of achieving both low power consumption and high speed can be realized.

An assembling method that is high in assembly accuracy and easily performed at the actual installation site is provided. In this method, the sub base plates on the sub mounting tables are aligned with respect to a main base plate on a main mounting table at a temporary installation site, and the state thereof is maintained. Then, the main mounting table and the sub mounting tables are separated from each other to be transferred to the actual installation site, and the positioning state is restored at the actual installation site. Since a positional alignment can be performed at the temporary installation site, the work required at the actual installation site can be reduced. Furthermore, since a fine adjustment can be performed at the actual installation site, the accuracy in the positional alignment can be improved.
摘要:
In an internal combustion engine with a variable nozzle vane turbocharger, when the flow rate (VN passage flow rate) of exhaust gas passing through nozzle vanes has reached a spatial resonance region in an exhaust gas passage space between a turbine housing and a catalyst during acceleration, the flow rate is increased so that the spatial resonance region can be quickly passed. When the flow rate (VN passage flow rate) of exhaust gas passing through the nozzle vanes has reached the spatial resonance region during deceleration, the flow rate is decreased so that the spatial resonance region can be quickly passed. Such a control can reduce a period of time during which the frequency of pressure pulsation occurring at the rear ends of the nozzle vanes is amplified in the spatial resonance region, whereby noise caused by the pressure pulsation can be reduced.
