Abstract:
In order to present a basic cell of a master slice type LSI having a high memory density and a high speed logic circuitry, a basic cell is composed of each pair of the PMOS 1, NMOS 4, PMOS 7, and NMOS 10, and three contact holes--besides the contact holes 17, as the contact holes within the MOS channel width W of each MOS, that are connected to the GND power lines 51 and 53, or the Vcc power lines 50 and 52--are formed in the direction perpendicular to each of the power lines. Additionally, in order to present a semiconductor integrated device having a static type RAM that has realized with its simple structure a shortening of the memory cycle, a RAM is constructed by having memory cells, in which each is composed of a pair of transfer MOSFETs, which both of the MOSFETs are turned on during the write-in operation and one of the MOSFETs is turned on during the read-out operation, is located in between a complementary data line and an input/output node that has a complementary relationship with an information storage part comprised by a pair of inverter circuits in which the inputs and outputs are mutually cross-connected. By constructing in this way, it becomes possible to speed up the write-in operation with accuracy by having a complementary write-in signal received from a pair of the complementary lines during the read-out operation, and it becomes possible to obtain read-out signals rapidly and to prevent write-in errors caused by the pre-read-out potential of the data line because the information storage part is connected only to one of the data lines through one of the transfer gates during the read-out operation.
Abstract:
In a one-chip microcomputer, an EPROM is formed together with a ROM and RAM on one semiconductor substrate. Data such as fixed data necessary in the microcomputer can be changed by the use of the EPROM. In case data are to be written in the EPROM, an EPROM writer is used. This EPROM writer outputs write data to the EPROM and checks (or verifies) the data written in the EPROM immediately thereafter. If any error is detected, the subsequent data write is interrupted. In order to inhibit the unnecessary operation interruption in case the address designated by the EPROM writer comes out of the range of the EPROM, the checking (or verifying) data signal to be fed from the one-chip microcomputer to the EPROM writer is forcibly set at a level which indicates satisfactory operation of the EPROM.
Abstract:
A mask-programmed ROM includes depletion type load MOSFETs provided between data lines in a memory array and a power supply voltage, the MOSFETs having a ground potential of the circuit applied to their gates. Reading of data is carried out by an amplifying MOSFET which supplies a current to a selected data line through a depletion type MOSFET which is supplied at its gate with the circuit ground potential. Thus, bias voltages which are respectively applied to the data lines and a sense amplifier which receives a signal read out from a selected data line are made equal to each other, thereby achieving a high-speed read operation.
Abstract:
An electronic thermometer includes a temperature sensing means for sensing a temperature of a part to be measured, a prediction means fro predicting an equilibrium temperature by using the temperature being sensed, and a temperature display means having a temperature display unit. The temperature display means switches the display of the temperature display unit from the predicted temperature predicted by the prediction means to the actual measured temperature sensed by the temperature sensing means, based on a variation state of a peak of the temperature sensed by the temperature sensing means. Accordingly, a variation in displayed temperature is reduced, when the display switching is performed from the predicted temperature to the actual measured temperature, and a determination of the display switching from the predicted temperature to the actual measured temperature can be achieved by a simple circuit.
