A 2.sup.N -phase phase modulator is formed from a plurality of series-connected 2-phase phase modulators. Each of the 2-phase phase modulators includes an Exclusive OR gate receiving at one input terminal one of a plurality of digital data sets. The first phase modulator receives a carrier signal at its other input terminal, and all subsequent phase modulators receive an output from a previous phase modulator through a 1/2 frequency divider.

A vertical PNP transistor having a large withstand voltage is disclosed. On a P-type substrate, a N-type epitaxial layer is provided. A P-type isolation region is formed in the epitaxial layer as a closed-loop to isolate a portion of the epitaxial layer from the other portions thereof. A first N-type buried layer is formed in the isolated epitaxial layer at the interface of the epitaxial layer and the semiconductor layer so as to separate the two. A second P-type buried layer is provided on top of the first buried layer. A P-type collector region is formed as a second closed-loop in the epitaxial layer enclosed within the first closed-loop. A high N-type concentration region that permits great withstand voltage is formed as a closed-loop separating the first closed-loop and the second closed-loop regions. A P-type emitter region is formed in the epitaxial layer region enclosed within the second closed-loop. Without the emitter region, the device can be used as a diode. By adding a N-type region within the emitter region, an NPNP thyristor can be obtained.

This invention provides a flip-flop drawing low current and occupying a small area in a semiconductor integrated circuit. The flip-flop has a first and a second transistor having their emitters grounded via a first and a second diode, respectively. The collector of the first transistor is coupled with the base of the second transistor via a third diode. Likewise, the collector of the second transistor is coupled with the base of the first transistor via a fourth diode. The output is derived from the collector of a third transistor having its base-emitter path connected in parallel with the first or second diode to form a current mirror circuit.

A data processing system including a central processing unit (CPU), a memory device operating on a data word length of 2 m-bits, an input/output device operating on a data word length of m bits, an m-bit register and a direct memory access (DMA) controller for transferring data words in both directions between the memory device and the input/output device independently of the CPU. A 2 m-bit bus is connected between the memory device and two m-bit buses connected to a bus switching circuit which controls the transfer of m-bit data words between the 2 m-bit bus and the register and the input/output device. A control circuit generates timing and switching signals such that, during a first bus cycle a first m-bit data word from the input/ouput device is stored in the register, and during a second bus cycle a second m-bit data word from the input/output device is transferred directly via the buses to the memory device and, also, the first m-bit data word, stored in the register, is transferred to the memory device. For transfer of a data word from the memory device to the input/output device, during a first bus cycle m bits of data are transferred directly via the buses to the input/output device and, also, the following m bits are stored in the register, and during a second bus cycle the following m bits are transferred to the input/output device.

For use in pre-editing a video tape, an original video tape is prepared by automatically recording successive scene numbers on a video tape in correspondence to the respective scenes being recorded on the tape. As the scenes are displayed in combination with the scene numbers, those of successive numbers preliminarily recorded on a card in one-to-one correspondence to the scene numbers are marked, which correspond to the scenes to be selected. The marked numbers are read while signals representative of the scenes and the scene numbers are reproduced from the original video tape. Each time correspondence between the marked numbers and the reproduced scene numbers is detected, scenes corresponding to the detected scene numbers are automatically transferred to another video tape to thereby complete the scene-selected video tape. The scene numbers may be recorded on the cue track to be visually displayed as successive numerals together with the corresponding scenes.

A compandor converts a linear code signal consisting of a polarity bit and a plurality of absolute value bits. The polarity bit represents the polarity of each sample value of an original analog signal. The absolute value bits represent the absolute value of the sample. The compandor converts the linear code into a nonlinear code including the polarity bit, a plurality of segment bits representing the segments in a characteristic curve to which the original analog signal belongs, and mantissa bits which indicate the position of the sample value in that segment. The compandor comprises: a plurality of input terminals for receiving the linear code signal; a first read-only memory means, addressed by a first bit group among the absolute value bits for memorizing a segment bit decision rule; a second read-only memory means, addressed by a second bit group consisting of another plurality of bits among the absolute value bits and some bits in common with the first bit group for memorizing a first mantissa bit decision rule; a third read-only memory means, addressed by the first bit group, for memorizing a second mantissa bit decision rule; and means for selecting the second or third read-only memory means depending on the value of the most significant bit among the segment bits applied from the first read-only memory means.

A portable electronic apparatus has an oscillator for generating a signal. An audible annunciator has an inductance element for generating an audible annunciating signal in response to a first actuation signal of a first frequency. A light emitting means is turned on and off by counter-electromotive forces developed in the inductance element in response to one of the first actuation signal and a second actuation signal of a second frequency. A frequency divider is coupled to the audible annunciator and to the light emitting means for frequency-dividing the oscillation signal to provide the first and second actuation signals and for selectively generating one of these actuation signals in response to a control signal.
