Signal lines which provide electric connections from an internal circuit formed on a main surface of a semiconductor chip and including, for example, MIS transistor to protective elements constituted by, for example, diodes are drawn out from outlet ports formed on wiring lines disposed between the protective elements, and a signal line region occupied by the signal lines is provided over the protective elements and under electrode pads. A wiring region on the main surface of the semiconductor chip can be enlarged without increasing the chip area.

An image forming apparatus that is capable of carrying out processes such as an image forming process in an efficient manner while reducing downtime. Laser beam is emitted onto an intermediate transfer belt. The light intensities of light scattered from the laser beam reflected by at least a part of the surface of the intermediate transfer belt are detected, and light intensity distribution information on the distribution of the detected light intensities are acquired. Phase information on phases on the intermediate transfer belt is acquired based on the light intensity distribution information. An image forming process in which an image is formed on the intermediate transfer belt is carried out in synchronization with a predetermined phase included in the acquired phase information.

An information processing apparatus includes a storage unit, an installation unit, a processing unit, and a transmission unit. The storage unit stores data to be printed in an intermediate format independent of a specific model of a printing apparatus. The installation unit installs a printer driver corresponding to a printing apparatus in response to a request from the printing apparatus. The processing unit causes the printer driver installed by the installation unit to generate, from the intermediate-format data, data capable of recognizing output settings used for actual printing apparatus printing and outputs the generated data to a storage area inside the information processing apparatus. The transmission unit acquires information about the output settings from the data output by the processing unit and transmits the information about the output settings to the printing apparatus. The printing apparatus displays the information about the output settings of the data to be printed.
摘要:
A semiconductor device manufacturing technique which allows reduction of semiconductor chip size. First, a pad and other wires are formed over an insulating film. A surface protective film is formed over the insulating film including the pad and wires, and an opening is made in the surface protective film. The opening lies over the pad and exposes a surface of the pad. A bump electrode is formed over the surface protective film including the opening. Here, the pad is smaller than the bump electrode. Consequently, the wires are arranged just beneath the bump electrode in the same layer as the pad 10. In other words, the wires are arranged in space which becomes available because the pad is small enough.

No registration pattern can be formed with a reference density due to environmental changes. In such a case, any registration cannot be formed until an image forming apparatus is controlled to be able to form a registration pattern with the reference density. To solve this problem, a CPU included in the image forming apparatus controls pattern forming conditions so that registration patterns of respective colors can match one another in density lower than the reference density. The CPU controls each image forming unit to form a registration pattern based on the controlled pattern forming conditions.
