摘要:
A data transfer apparatus transfers data between a source and a destination on a clock having a phase with a signal delay over a connection line taken into account to allow a plurality of destinations to capture the transfer data on the same clock timing. Optimized data transfer and high-speed data transfer are thus realized, which in turn significantly enhances the performance of the data transfer apparatus.

A signal transmitting circuit includes one or more circuit blocks having a driving circuit and an intra-block transmission line for transmitting a signal produced by the driving circuit, one or more circuit blocks having a receiving circuit and an intra-block transmission line for transmitting the signal to said receiving circuit, and a main interblock transmission line for propagating a signal between both of the driving and receiving circuit blocks. Inter-block transmission line is terminated at one or two ends by one or two resistors having substantially the same impedance as the interblock transmission line itself. Each of the intra-block transmission line is provided with a resistance element having a resistance equal to or close to a value derived by subtracting a half of an impedance of the inter-block transmission line from an impedance of the intra-block transmission line, to lower signal amplitude and suppress reflections of a signal at branch points along the main interblock transmission line, thereby enabling a high-speed signal transfer.

摘要:
In a simultaneous bidirectional transmission circuit for conducting simultaneous two-way communication between LSIs via a transmission line, an input/output circuit connected to the transmission line is included in an LSI. The input/output circuit has a driver and a receiver. The driver sends out an output signal depending on a logical signal within the LSI to the transmission line. The receiver receives a mixed signal having a mixture of a received signal and the output signal via the transmission line. The signal to be received by the receiver in an LSI has been sent out to the transmission line by the other party i.e., another LSI in communication therewith. The receiver receives the logical signal output as well. The receives derives a difference between the mixed signal and the logical signal output, thereby removing the component of the logical signal from the mixed signal, and outputs the received signal. The receiver has a reference circuit for receiving the logical signal and outputting it to a bias circuit, a bias circuit for generating a divided voltage signal in conjunction with internal resistance of the reference circuit, and a differential receiver for receiving the mixed signal and the divided voltage signal and outputting the difference between them. The reference circuit and the bias circuit are formed by using MOS transistors.

Pattern data of a phase shift mask can be inspected: (101) by separating and laying out pattern data of a phase shift mask in an actual pattern data layer, an auxiliary pattern data layer and a phase shift pattern data layer; (102) by inspecting and correcting only the data of the actual pattern of the actual pattern data layer; (108) by making data of an estimated pattern estimated to be transferred to a semiconductor wafer from the data of the synthetic data of the correct actual pattern data, the auxiliary pattern data and the phase shift pattern data, which are inspected and corrected; and (104) by comparing the estimated pattern data and the actual pattern data to inspect the data of the auxiliary pattern and the phase shift pattern.
