A selective ion sensitive electrode is so constructed that an ion exchanger sensitive to a specific ion is formed on a metal electrode, an electric conductive resin electrode or a chlorinated metal electrode to which a signal wire is connected so as to maintain a stable electric connection between the signal wire and the ion exchanger over a long period of time. A layer of a silane coupling agent is used between the electrode member and ion exchanger.

Disclosed are a semiconductor device of which a block having a plurality of portions that operate based on a plurality of clocks can be designed and inspected easily, and a method of designing the semiconductor device. First and second clocks whose frequencies are mutually different are used to generate an enabling signal that is validated only during a short period including a transition edge of the second clock. The enabling signal and first clock are supplied to the second portion. The second portion synthesizes the enabling signal and first clock to substantially generate the second clock. Thus, the second portion is regarded as a portion that operates synchronously with the first clock.

In a bus control system for generating a series of access requests from an access requesting unit, such as a CPU connected to a common bus including a data bus or an address bus, to a specific access request responding unit, the specific access request responding unit includes a next-address enable signal generating unit for sending a next-address enable signal which represents that a next address can be received, to the access requesting unit before data is transferred or inputted, in accordance with an address representing the access request from the access requesting unit when a read operation or a write operation is executed. Preferably, the access requesting unit includes a next-address enable signal receiving unit for receiving the next-address enable signal from the specific access request responding unit and for sending the next address to the specific access request responding unit. On the other hand, a bus control method executed by using the bus control system, having the construction described above, is disclosed.

A measuring electrode device comprises a pH electrode arranged within an outer casing and having a pH sensitive member in contact with an electrolyte housed in the outer casing. The electrolyte reacts with a predetermined gas in a liquid to be inspected and varies its pH. The pH sensitive member includes a semiconductor substrate and a pH sensitive membrane formed on the substrate and in contact with the electrolyte. The pH sensitive membrane is formed of at least one element selected from the group consisting of silicon nitride, aluminum oxide and tantalum pentoxide. A potential difference is produced between the pH sensitive membrane and the electrolyte in accordance with the variation of the pH of the electrolyte. Thus, a potential difference is produced between the pH electrode and a reference electrode according to the variation of the pH of the electrolyte.

A data processing device exchanges data between a memory and an external bus master. The memory is connected to the data processing device via a first bus so as to store data. The external bus master is connected to the data processing device via a second bus so as to process data. The data processing device comprises a bus-transmission control unit accessing the memory via the first bus in response to a request to access the memory made by the external bus master via the second bus.
摘要:
A chemical sensing element suitable for measurement of the activity or the concentration of a specific ion contained in an electrolyte is provided with an optically opaque membrane between a gate insulating membrane and an ion sensing membrane of a field-effect type transistor. Since the opaque membrane is provided, extraneous light impinging on a gate is blocked by the opaque membrane, whereby an erroneous potential due to extraneous light is prevented. Accordingly, the accurate measurement of the activity or the concentration of a specific ion contained in an electrolyte may be achieved even in intense ambient light.

An ion selective electrode having a silicon wafer substrate secured to one end of a tube made of insulating material by an adhesive agent and an ion sensitive film applied on the outer surface of silicon wafer substrate is disclosed. In order to prevent a portion of a side edge of silicon wafer substrate from being exposed to a sample liquid to be measured, the side edge of silicon wafer substrate is tapered and the ion sensitive film is applied on the tapered side edge as well as on the outer surface of silicon wafer substrate. The tapered side edge may be simply formed by effecting an anisotropic etching for a silicon wafer.
