摘要:
A memory controller multiplexes access signals each consisting of a plurality of bits as optical signals and outputs the multiplexed optical signals. At this time, the optical signals whose wavelengths differ depending on memory devices are generated. A memory interface unit demultiplexes the multiplexed optical signals into the original optical signals and converts the demultiplexed optical signals into electrical signals. The memory interface unit determines to which of the memory devices the electrical signals resulting from the conversion should be outputted, according to the wavelengths of the demultiplexed optical signals. This frees the memory controller from a need for transmitting to the memory interface unit a signal for identifying the memory device. The memory interface unit need not include a decoding circuit for identifying the memory device.

A semiconductor memory has a field programmable unit in which logic to inter-convert external signals to be input/output to/from a memory system and internal signals to be input/output to/from a memory cell array is programmed. A program for constructing the logic of the field programmable unit is stored in a nonvolatile program memory unit. Through the field programmable unit, a controller can access the memory cell array, even when the interface of the controller accessing the semiconductor memory is different from an interface for accessing the memory cell array. Therefore, one kind of semiconductor memory can be used as plural kinds of semiconductor memories. This eliminates the need to develop plural kinds of semiconductor memories, reducing a development cost.

An exhaust gas purification apparatus for use in an internal combustion engine comprises an exhaust gas duct connected to the engine through which exhaust gas containing NOx gas passes, and a catalyst disposed in the exhaust gas duct such that it contacts the exhaust gas. The catalyst chemically adsorbs NOx when a stoichiometric amount of a gaseous oxidizing agent present in the exhaust gas is larger than that of a gaseous reducing agent present in the exhaust gas for reducing NOx, adsorbed NOx is catalytically reduced in the presence of a reducing agent when the stoichiometric amount of the oxidizing agent is not larger that of the reducing agent.

A system and method of logically partitioning shared memory structures between computer domains is disclosed. In one embodiment, each domain is assigned a unique address space identifier. The unique address space identifier preferably has tag extension and index extension bits. This permits the tag and index bits of a conventional local domain address to be extended with tag extension and index extension bits. Data entries in the shared memory structure may be accessed using an extended index value. Hits may be determined using an extended tag value.

An electronic device has a wiring board mounted with an electronic circuit chip. A recess or through-hole is formed in a major surface of the wiring board on which the electronic circuit chip is mounted at a position corresponding to a central portion of the electronic circuit chip. Air trapped in a space between the electronic circuit chip and the wiring board is collected in the recess or through-hole to form a void separated from the electronic circuit chip.

摘要:
A rotational angle detecting device includes a rotation detecting section for outputting sinusoidal first and second detection signals as a result of the rotation of a rotor connected to a rotary member, a storage section for updating and storing the first and second detection signals, and a controlling section. The first and second detection signals have constant amplitudes, have the same periods, and have wavelengths which are output of phase. The controlling section compares the amplitude values of most recent first and second detection signals output from the rotation detecting section, and determines whether or not the amplitude values fall within proper ranges. When the controlling section determines that they fall within the proper ranges, a piece of detection information which is created based on the most recent first and second detection signals is supplied to a controller. On the other hand, when the controlling section determines that they do not fall within the proper ranges, the controlling section destroys the most recent first and second detection signals, and does not supply detection information to the controller. The invention provides a rotational angle detecting device for performing required controlling operations using detection signals output from the rotational detecting section which have been determined as being proper detection signals.
