A transmitter circuit for use in a display device of the type having a transmission line consisting of aluminum or copper conductor formed on a glass substrate includes a driver circuit, which has a non-inverting output terminal and an inverting output terminal, for outputting a signal current, which has a loop direction that changes based upon an input signal, to the non-inverting and inverting output terminals; and an output-waveform control circuit for detecting the edge of the waveform of the input signal and responding by increasing the signal current temporarily.

A display, an image processing apparatus and an image processing method for producing excellent visual images while suppressing the accumulation of quantization errors related to increasingly complex digital image processing. Among a variety of image processing, processing which can be represented by look-up tables (LUT) such as constant number multiplication and constant number addition/subtraction is performed equivalently by changing reference values in a reference gray-level signal generator of a display. Thus, the operation of a digital image processing unit can be simplified, and there is obtained the display making the most use of the output dynamic range while suppressing the occurrence and accumulation of quantization errors.

To design a chip having a plurality of circuit areas driven by different power supplies, a boundary cell to be inserted on the boundary between the circuit areas is prepared. After creating a logic circuit netlist with a design tool, the boundary cell is inserted on the boundary. The boundary cell is connected on a signal transmission path between the circuit areas. A circuit for suppressing short-through current or leakage current is used as the boundary circuit. By preparing the boundary cell in a cell library, chip design is facilitated.

This invention relates to a chemical mechanical polishing slurry comprising polishing grains, ammonium nitrate as an oxidizing agent, 1,2,4-triazole as a polishing promoter for a copper metal film and water and having a pH within a range of 3 to 4. The polishing slurry is suitable for forming a damascene copper-based metal interconnection comprising a tantalumr-based metal as a barrier metal film material.

A silicon layer doped with an impurity for a floating gate, a protective layer, a silicon nitride layer of a laminated hard mask and a first NSG layer are formed into a desired pattern, on which a second NSG layer is formed and left as a side wall. With the second NSG layer as a mask, the silicon nitride layer is etched. Using the remaining silicon nitride layer as a mask, the silicon layer is etched to form a silicon pattern whose surface is covered with a second protective layer, and the silicon nitride layer is etched out. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent a damage at the surface of the floating gate at the time of forming the floating gate using doped polysilicon.

A clock controlling circuit and method for eliminating the delay difference in the entire clock propagation line. Circuit scale is reduced as compared to a case of using a PLL or DLL circuit. A timing averaging circuit 10 is fed with clocks from a position on a forward route 111 of a direction-reversed clock propagation path, adapted for being fed with input clocks at its one end, and from a position on a return route 112 corresponding to the position on the forward route 111. The timing difference between these clocks is averaged to output an averaged timing difference.

A semiconductor integrated circuit device includes a P type substrate. An N-channel MOS transistor, a P-channel MOS transistor, and an MOS type varactor element are provided in the upper surface of the P type substrate. A gate insulating film of the MOS type varactor element is thinner than gate insulating films of the N-channel MOS transistor and the P-channel MOS transistor. Also, a maximum gate voltage applied between a well terminal and a gate terminal of the MOS type varactor element is lower than a maximum gate voltage applied to the N-channel MOS transistor and the P-channel MOS transistor.
