    摘要: A semiconductor memory integrated circuit is provided, which is capable of simultaneously applying voltage stress to normal signal lines and spare signal lines, thereby reducing the time required for performing a test. The semiconductor memory integrated circuit includes a memory cell array having a plurality of normal signal lines for selecting a memory cell, a redundant cell array including three or more of odd number of spare signal lines for compensating for defectiveness in the memory cell array, a decoder for decoding an address signal to select a normal signal line, a spare decoder, which is activated when a defective address signal is inputted, for decoding the defective address signal to select a spare signal line, and a test control circuit for controlling the decoder and the spare decoder to perform a test of applying voltage between adjacent signal lines in the normal signal lines and the spare signal lines. The test control circuit sets electric potential levels in a signal line group including the normal signal lines and the spare signal lines so that at the time of a test, electric potential levels of adjacent signal lines are opposite to each other.

    摘要: A semiconductor has eight banks that can be accessed simultaneously. Within each bank, there are disposed two fixed spare row decoders and two mapping spare row decoders. Within each bank, two fixed fuse sets are provided corresponding to the fixed spare row decoders. Eight mapping fuse sets are provided at the outside of each bank, for example, with no association with the mapping spare row decoders. Each mapping fuse set stores mapping data for determining a correspondence of the mapping fuse set to a specific mapping spare row decoder within a specific bank.

    摘要: A coding and/or decoding system includes: a code-word table for storing therein a plurality of code words, which are capable of being decoded both in forward and backward directions and which are formed so that delimiters of the code words are capable of being identified by a predetermined weight of the code words, so that the code words correspond to different source symbols; an encoder for selecting code words corresponding to inputted source symbols from the code-word table; and a synchronization interval setting part for preparing coded data every predetermined interval using the code words selected by the encoder and for inserting stuffing codes capable of being decoded in the backward direction. Thus, it is possible to decrease useless bit patterns to enhance the coding efficiency by smaller amounts of calculation and storage, and to decode variable length codes both in the forward and backward directions even if the synchronization interval is set every interval using the stuffing bits.

    摘要: An encoding apparatus comprising a encoder for encoding an input video signal, thereby generating encoded data, an output buffer for receiving the encoded data and outputting the data at a predetermined transmission rate, and an encoding control circuit for selecting a frame to be encoded. In the encoding control circuit, the target number of bits for each frame is calculated on the basis of the encoding bit rate, the encoding frame rate and the limits of delay, all of which are set externally. The number of encoded bits, thus calculated, is compared with the target number of encoded bits. A quantizer and a switch are controlled in accordance with the difference between the number of encoded code and the target number of encoded bits, thereby adjusting a quantization parameter and the number of frames which are to be skipped.
