An optical information recording and reproducing apparatus is disclosed in which a predetermined signal is recorded on a track of a rotating recording medium by a recording light beam and the recorded information is reproduced by a reproducing light beam. The information recorded on the last record track is reproduced by the recording beam and the reproducing beam and radiating position of the recording beam on the recording medium is displaced by a predetermined distance from the last record track.

A compact noncontact communication semiconductor device having a multidirectional or omnidirectional antenna and usable in a minuscule space to which the applications have conventionally been difficult is provided. The outer peripheral portion of a spherical IC 1 is covered with an insulating layer 4 having a thickness equal to or larger than the diameter of the IC 1, and antenna patterns 2 are formed on the surface of the insulating layer 4. The antenna patterns 2 can be configured either with a winding or by microprocessing using etching or laser beam, for example, for the conductive film formed on the surface of the insulating layer 4. The antenna patterns 2 and the circuit pattern formed on the surface of the IC 1 are interconnected via a through hole 5.

A television-connected microprocessor system designed for use primarily as a television game or education system. The system is designed to accept source programming from cartridges that are interchangeable. The cartridges utilize either a ROM or a RAM to store the source programming. The source program is stored in the cartridge ROM or RAM in a higher level language, such as BASIC and interpreted for use by the microprocessor. Each ROM cartridge comes with a keyboard entry device as an integral part thereof which is uniquely adapted to the programming in the cartridge and the games or training sequence dictated thereby. By using a RAM cartridge, the user may enter his own source program by way of a general purpose keyboard or a tape recorder. Keyboard overlays are utilized to adapt the general purpose keyboard to the particular game or training sequence dictated by the source program entered into the cartridge RAM by the user.

In a character displaying device having a character pattern memory which is made up of a circulating sequential access memory storing character patterns therein, a character pattern generating system comprises a high speed buffer memory which stores the character codes of one line or any other suitable amount of characters to be displayed and the corresponding character patterns, so that each time one character is delivered as an output from the character pattern memory, the presence of the character code of the particular character is examined for all the character codes of the buffer memory, and the character pattern of the particular character is written into the buffer memory when the character codes are coincident, the writing operations being sequentially executed in the order of the character outputs of the character pattern memory, thereby making it possible to finish all the character patterns in the buffer memory within a period in which the read-out of the character pattern memory circulates.

A variable inductor wherein two closed magnetic circuits each having a predetermined gap in one place are constructed of a movable magnetic core and a fixed magnetic core. When the movable magnetic core is moved, the opposite area between both the magnetic cores in one of the closed magnetic circuits increases, while the opposite area between both the magnetic cores in the other closed magnetic circuit decreases. Thus, the inductances of coils wound around parts of the respective closed magnetic circuits vary complementarily.

A keyboard structure permitting the interconnection of several hundred flexible key structures in a compact area. The structure includes a matrix of key cells disposed on an insulating surface, the row elements being commonly connected by conductive paths on the surface while the column elements are electrically separate. A contact point for each row and each column element extends to the opposite side of the insulating surface. These contact points are so disposed that parallel conductive paths which run only in the vertical direction may be used to provide row-select and column-select indications.

A color pattern and alphanumeric character generator for use with raster-scanned CRT display devices wherein the color background patterns and the characters are generated in an integrated manner. As a result, the apparatus utilized is considerably simplified and the color pattern display obtainable is more complex and more easily varied than hitherto was possible in an apparatus of this type. The viewing area of the raster-scan CRT is divided into a matrix of character cells. Each character cell is in turn divided into a plurality of color cells, each color cell being a matrix of dot positions on the display area of the CRT. The relationship of the number of color cells in each character cell and the number of dot positions in each color cell is an even integer. A display RAM, addressed by a microprocessor, stores display information therein. The RAM is addressed by the display circuitry during the display cycle. Each address location in the RAM has a plurality of bytes associated therewith which define a particular character cell on the CRT, both as to the color pattern therein and the character therein, if any. This information is used by the color and video network of the raster-scan display to generate the composite character and color pattern signal for each scan line.

A control apparatus having an electronic timer including a plurality of flip-flop circuits connected in multiple stages in cascade. Outputs are taken from different stages of the electronic timer and the separate outputs are utilized to produce individual control timing signals which serve for controlling at least one device in accordance with the timing specific to the individual control timing signals.

A data processing system comprises first and second arithmetic units for processing emergent tasks and non-emergent tasks, respectively, a memory for storing the data from the arithmetic units, and a control unit. The control unit selects either an interrupt task or a task being processed in response to the priority levels of the tasks. The first or second arithmetic unit is operated in response to whether a selected task is an emergent task or a non-emergent task.
